Wound up and winding down
It’s been a wild couple of weeks.
We’re down two heads at the restaurant, both due to firing. One of the counter ladies had some questionable activity on the till that she didn’t want to come in and discuss and one of our cooks was fired for being overpriced and a pain in the ass.
I went from a bit over 30 hours/week to nearly 39 hours this next week, including a 10 hour shift on Monday’s and to top it all off, there was a basketball tournament in town this weekend with 56 teams competing and *of course* the winning teams showed up tonight about an hour before closing. Sigh.. Shut the Open sign off at 9pm, clocked out at about 10:15. Sitting here with a cold bottle of beer trying to wind down, but I need to get to bed soon, as I need to be back at the restaurant at 9:30 tomorrow morning. Yes.. But my paycheck will be wonderful. 
Still plugging away on the third scarf and I even did a couple rows on the little sweater to just prove to myself that I knew where I was in the pattern.
Hopefully, more later

Just a note to let you know that I thought the “snow on trees” picture on your January 29th entry was so gorgeous I made it the desktop on my computer. So lovely!
