My day sucked

To start out the day while driving to work I got pulled over by the cops. No ticket but what a way to start the morning...oh it gets better.
Well work is begining to becoming work and it is not the job that is the problem. It seems that the head lady of the department is to afraid to tell me if I screw up insteads ops for talking behind my back when I can see her doing it. Fun, another bitch that I will have to take down. Second I tell the lady that I am training with that I need to get off work on time, husband is trying to cook supper and I need to make it to the house before the house burns downs. Of course getting off work on time was not going to happen. She had to handhold me the rest of the night doing the easy stuff while leaving me with the harder stuff by myself. I guess in just a few three days I am to know the department like the back of my hand right? I can do some things but when the over all goal is to got out of work on time I thought she would help out more. Plus on top of everything there were 17 late trays that went out yesterday. 17 that had to be ran around the hospital and no they came in just far enough apart so when you got back from one there was another order in the printer.
Just alittle rant, I have to go to work now...... more later.

I panited a mailbox

Well I am awake, kinda, and getting ready for work. I spent all day yesterday painting the mailbox and digging out the front sidewalk. Back breaking and dirty, I loved it. It looks better and people actully walked down my part of the sidewalk yesterday, I was pleased with myself. I however found that I must live around a lot of people of all ages that do not work. Several people stopped and talked to me and more then once people drove by and waved. ( A lot of people also just staired at me like they had never seena girl working before.) The reason I think this is so funny is that people were cheering me on. "Good Job!!" "That looks great!" But I also wonder if they were just being nice or were they being nosey, I haven't figured that out just yet.

Now a painted mailbox is a hit with my neighborhood. No I did nothing special with it, I took a raddle can to it in navy blue and I need another coat of paint on it. People are going to shit when we start on the outside of the house. Of course a few things are going to have to go from the back, note earlier blog, to make a bigger improvement. I plan on planting flowers and landscape.
I can't wait to start on the yard but since it is March I'm not holding my breath that it will not snow again.

See the guy that lived here was 80 and before he got that old he was a tucker so you can just picture what this yard looks like. I think he knocked down the weeds maybe once or twice a month and called it good. The smart people at the bank must have put in the fence because the fence is set upon soft dirt. Thankfully my boys don't dig because they could get out in a flash with little work. Plus the middle of the yard has rolling sandhills. The neighbors next to me are not much better when it comes to yard work. But that is okey, in a few months their house will look like shit and my house will look great. I hope anyway.

Well that seemed to work, like my jackass? That's how I feel when I use this. Ok, I'll be nice and see if I am smarter then wedsite.

Anyway yes I started the new job and things seem to be going great. I think I will like this job, the fact that it really isn't all that hard and it changes daily should prove to be fun. Yes I work around food but I just set the food on a tray and check orders this shouldn't be hard. I am learning to use the computer but instead of giving a person carbs the other day I gave them crabs so I will have to watch my spelling.
There are a lot of in and outs of the job but a lot of it is just time management and that is something that I am very good at. I have a need to get things done and over with so I have more down time and have already found some holes that I can fill the way I want to like taking and setting things up together and not doing them at the last minute, which I hate. Plus I am happy to say that I work at the hospital, it makes me sound like I have a real job now not flipping burgers, yeppy.

Things are going good for me right now, I think.

Yessterday was not one of them.
Oh no work was fine, it was how and what I awoke to.
First I didn't have to work until 11am which means my happy ass can stay in bed until at least 9:00. I need coffee drinking time and the boys need some time outside to do their business . Tank barked at 7:05am. I got up and let him out and then convinced both the boys, Tank and Bob, that they wanted to get back in bed. Just as I was almost to sip a Mai-Tai with this hunk of a man that didn't speak English I hear a knock at the door. 7:30 a freaking m. I waited. Maybe this person will go away, but I guess they had a death wish because they knocked again. Now by the time I got out of bed, found pants and let the boys out the front door, the pounding on the back door had stopped.
I stumbled to the kitchen and look out. There right in my driveway is the ugly of all ugly, a 1970's camper tailer. Why you may ask? Well for the last few weeks husband's dad has been dragging shit over here it this house as if it is a storage unit. I have yet to understand how my garage became his personal storage unit or how I will to the lawn mower come summer. Now he does live in town here a few blocks away, but I guess it is better to hide his shit over here instead of in front of his house. I knows that we rent this place from him but this is getting out of hand.
So I called him. He said it is only for a few days(the camper that is). Ya right I tell myself. If my little truck could pull the beast then I would have taken it over to his house and parked it there. But I have a plan.
Saturday morning I 'm getting for sale signs and hanging the signs on everything that is not mine. Then I am taking a picture and sending it to his dad. The prices will be next to nothing. I will see how fast he can get over here to save his shit.

Well you may be wondering what has happen to me. Yes I started a new job that has cut into my blog time but the truth of the matter is I am having a hard time getting this site to work for me. As you can see there is no picture of me and that is because I can't get this site to up load one of serval I have tried. Also I made a blog saved it as a draft and when I went to publish it the damn computer got stuck and it won't load the blog. So I am posting this to see it it will actully post and then if it does I will be writting a new post.
