Seven swans a swimming

Shawshank, December 7, 2023

Oh, it’s morning again. That sleep went very quickly. I was up I think, around 5. Just to go to the bathroom, then I was back snuggled in the warm bed. It felt like only a couple of minutes before the alarm went off.

It’s not too bad, but a week of closing shifts is hard. Getting home between 9:15-9:30. Tonight will probably be closer to the 9:30 mark. But we’re getting closer to the weekend. This’ll be the last full weekend off, probably for a while. I almost have my big boy pants. I can mostly work unsupervised on the register.

We’re supposed to have some weather tonight, going into tomorrow. Rain tonight, then it turns into snow whilst everyone sleeps. I’ll believe it when I see it. So just a little rain before it quickly changes to snow tonight – then lots of snow tomorrow morning. Yay snow, said no one ever.

The people I work with are pretty cool. They’re very nice, and have infinite patience with me. I ask stupid questions, but they just smile and answer the questions.

But, I have two more days of closing. Then the weekend off, and I close again on Monday. Then it’s a couple of opening shifts, and a closing shift. Then my first Saturday shift. It shouldn’t be too bad. I have 90% of the basics down. It’s just remembering how to do all the functions.

It’s not rocket surgery!

It’s bright and sunny out there. Hopefully, it stays that way for the rest of the day. I’ve missed the sun, it’s been so gray for the last couple of weeks. And it doesn’t look like it’s too windy out there. Yesterday was a long day all around. Up at…
