the week in review
Jan. 7th, 2018 07:22 amHow is it possible to have a three day work week (where days 1 and two are separated by two days off) and still feel like the week was too long? I guess if I'd gotten all my days in a row like Ms. G, I'd feel a little differently. It probably doesn't help that Widget returned with a cold or something and gave it to me, or else my cold remembered we hadn't done the part where you spend two or three days hacking up a lung at the end. Not sure, honestly.
So it snowed Wednesday and it was glorious. Eventually I'll get off my ass and post pictures because, like everyone else in the area, I took some. I spent the whole morning/early afternoon watching the weather outside like a hawk, waiting for the snow. Look, I take my snow sightings seriously. I've had a few snowy days, but this go round probably had the biggest, fluffiest flakes yet. It was honestly impressive how quickly everything was snowed over once it began in earnest. By the time I dozed off that afternoon, it had slowed down considerably and the flakes were much smaller. Gotta say, falling asleep to snow is still quite nice.
Then I got the next night off because of the icy roads and the fact that hello, we don't have plows or anything. We were lucky they brined the bridges... a week before this even happened. Seriously, they were saying that was fine. It. Was. A. Week. AGO. A week we were swamped with tourists and major travel because hello, New Year's! Wtf, city. Wtf.
Alas, I had to return to work Friday night and Saturday night, but I really wish I'd called out last night because I have a cough that will not quit. The only reason I didn't was because it was just meeeeeeee and I didn't want my shift lead to be mad. Yeah, she had the weekend off so it didn't matter. Sigh.
In case you wondered, there's still quite a bit of the snow left at our house. It's been freezing (well, below) every day since the snowfall and also we must be shadier than the otherside of the parking lot because yeah. The snowmen the neighbors built are still very much intact and our walkway is all icy and snowy.
Lesse. I updated my AG post throughout the week, so there's that if you're interested. I left Luciana on her own and combined everything else into one. Sigh. Unless my finances get miraculously better the next time I look at them, I'm going to have to wait for tax season to get Luci or Gabby. Delayed gratification is not my thing.
I believe I'm going to try and nap to see if that helps me feel better. Wish me luck.
