Hump Day

How the heck did it get to be late Wednesday evening?!

Today was pretty much the same as Monday and Tuesday with one exception.

I got up at 8, was in the office doing my morning admin stuff by 8:15, transcribed for an hour, took a breakfast break (10 minutes), transcribed for a while, took a water filling break (10 minutes), transcribed for a while, went to answer the door sometime in early afternoon…

Went to answer the door?

It was Donna! She was heading to a nearby town and wanted to see if I was free to join her. I couldn’t believe I had to say no! But I was swamped. 🙁 So we said hellos, I gave Midnight a cuddle, and back to transcription I went.

I took a 10 minute lunch break somewhere in the late afternoon and went back to work. I was almost done with my first pass-through when Donna called on the way back. I had two deadlines to meet today and I was racing to the finish for both. I couldn’t believe I had to turn her down again!

The transcription was done coming on seven and I jumped into my rain gear. I had one batch of fliers left to deliver by 8! I raced around both neighbourhoods and flopped back in my car at 7:55. Barely any time to spare!

By this time, my stomach and blood sugar levels were about to mutiny. I wanted to make pizza, but a chicken, cheese, and pickle sandwich on homemade bread (baked by  breadmaker while I did fliers on Tuesday), was much faster!

It was 8:30 by this time and I still had some admin stuff to do. Did that, built another Squidoo lens, and then gave myself five minutes of downtime with a hiragana word search puzzle.

Now, I’m thinking hot shower, cuddle with the catkids, and some much needed Zzzzzs.

  1. Having to work that hard is not pleasant but it’s so much better than not having work when you need it. So sorry you couldn’t spend time with Donna, though. We enjoy her visits, too.
