Not Quite A Quiet Sunday
April 22, 2012 11:08pm

Mom and Dad's birthday today. They are 66. And once again, I was not able to spend any time with them. This morning I was up at 5:15 to get to a mandatory store meeting from 6-8. I was able to go to church, though I couldn't stay for the entire service; a little bit was better than none at all. And then back to work at eleven. Usually Sundays are quiet to the point of being boring. Not today.

I made several trips to the back to bring up grills. I helped a customer load a grill onto his truck. I helped a lady with a lawn mower and a hedge trimmer. I covered register plus I worked in returns for half an hour. Suffice it to say, I am very tired!

I found out yesterday that I am being moved back to front end. I found out today that one of the head cashiers knew two weeks ago but wasn't allowed to say anything. I'm not surprised and truthfully, I'm okay with it. Since the powers that be decided that the way things were before wasn't the proper way to be doing things, at least I will be some place where things make sense. From what I can see, my hours are the same. I don't appear to be scheduled throughout the week. Of course, that too may change but in the meantime, I will work according to how I am scheduled. Funny that the head cashier knew two weeks ago that I'd be back up front. Two weeks ago I was recovering from surgery and dreading the possibility of having to deal with going back to OPE/Inside Lawn And Garden. This may be a blessing in disguise.

Random thought before I go to bed--why do blessings wear disguises? If I were a blessing, I'd walk around naked!

Yeah, it's time for bed!
