That's My Excuse

****

I have no better reason for not writing last night than I
fell asleep on the couch and by the time Snookums woke me
up to take me to the bedroom, I was half asleep and didn't
feel like writing. That's my excuse, I'm sticking to it.
But, otherwise, my day was great.

I had an on-call I really wasn't expecting them to use,
but they surprised me and told me to come on in. Turns out
I had a couple of new girls to train on registers. I
thought it would be easy, but in all actuality, there's
more to cashiering than I thought. Not that it's at all
difficult. There's just a lot of information to convey and
when your students have no idea what a CRM, GWP, PWP, ADS,
UPT, or a CYO are, it's not so easy. I know they'll figure
it out with experience. That's how I learned, so I don't
fear for their success. Not that I really see any of them
lasting past holiday. I'm not too optimistic when it comes
to new girls. They come and go so fast sometimes.

Last night I made a home-cooked meal. Well, a semi-
homemade meal. I bought one of those pot roasts in the
package (all the hard work done for you) and doctored it
up a bit. I turned the au jus it comes in into a nice
thick gravy, mashed up some potatoes, baked Grands
biscuits and steamed a bag of broccoli. I haven't been
eating much lately, which is both a good thing and a bad
thing. The good part is, I won't have as much weight to
lose when the baby is born. The bad part is nutrients. I
need to gain some weight for the baby's sake. So far I've
gained none. Not even the 5 pounds back I lost from
morning sickness. I'm still a little porker so I'm not too
concerned about it. But at some point I'm going to have to
change the number on the scale. A pound a week. Yikes.

I'm not scheduled to work today, but Tamara wants me to
come in from 12-5:30pm. This will be my 7th day in a row
working without a day off. But, no one has noticed because
it's been over the course of two work weeks (Sunday is the
first day of a new week). I hope I get tomorrow off like
I'm supposed to so I can have one day of rest before
starting into my next 5 days of work. I usually work 5
days on, 2 days off. But, if I have to work tomorrow, too
it's okay. Holiday only comes once a year. Thank goodness.

Speaking of work. I need to go get ready for it. Snookums
and I had sex for the first time in a MONTH last night and
I desperately need a shower. I feel sticky :( Sorry if
that was TMI! Ciao!
