Um -- It's Friday

     It's Friday and that's about as much as I've got.  Still having to take the medicine for my earlier problem, which is an ongoing kind of a thing and I don't know why.

     A busy weekend for me -- I have Saturday off, then I work early-early Sunday and Monday.  It may be the last of those for awhile, we hope: they've got someone to work the early-weekend shift and schedules for the rest of us will be shuffled around a little, which should put me back on my previous regular daytime shift.  I was offered an "opportunity" to work early Saturday and make up some of the hours I lost sick -- but between that and the water problem, I am behind on all manner of housework, so I had to pass.  The early shift is hard enough on my sleep/wake schedule without going for degree-of-difficulty points.

Reading "opportunity to work early Saturday and make up some of the hours I lost sick" preceded by "they've got someone to work the early-weekend shift and schedules for the rest of us will be shuffled" made me wonder if the finding was prompted/made necessary by the being-out-sick bit.

At one place I made my case to management weekly that the extra duties I was covering were too much of an imposition and they needed to find somebody. After 5 months I decided that I myself believed the case I was making to them, and I submitted my full resignation. Somehow it became easy for them to find someone within 4 days once I wan't there, and that person turned out to be much better than I was at the task, and turned out to be really good for the organization.

You haven't said anything: is the water problem unproblemed by now?

And somewhere in there, you have to celebrate the turning of the new year. For which, my best to all the citizens of Roseholme Cottage, two- and four-footed.
