8. Just got a phone call from the chef...
Seems like the janatorial staff didn't show up this morning...might have to go in even earlier to do some cleaning.

I'm here until 3 as well, but thank goodness there's no snowy mix. It's supposed to storm here later. Hopefully your day will go by quickly!

22. Doing good up here..
Been kind of a quiet weekend. I did laundry and housework on Friday and have sorta been vegging out since then. Three o'clock's not too bad. You rest up, relax, and enjoy the rest of the afternoon/evening! :hug: :pals:

P.S. Michiganians are gonna go crazy on Wednesday - we're supposed to hit 61 degrees!! WOOHOO! This has been one long winter...ARGH!

Love,
AFSCME girl

23. AWESOME!
Enjoy the weather! It's been in the lower 70s here and absolutely gorgeous (an even better reason for you to visit)! :D Glad you've had a relaxing weekend. I'm gonna recruit you to do my housework. :D

24. Omigosh,
the 70's sound wonderful! I'll bet it's beautiful where you live :) You know, I think cuz I sit at a desk all day, I don't mind housework at all! It gets me up and moving around :D

26. That's a good point.
Sometimes it sucks having to sit around for a whole shift. But I can't do the manual labor thing (besides serving).

Having a nice Easter dinner tonight?

27. I'm going out for a bite to eat with my friend,
Kathy, and her family. Then we're gonna head back to Kathy's house for dessert and coffee. Should be a nice afternoon. Kathy's family pretty much "adopted" me after I lost my Mom. I don't know what I'd do without them. What about you? Can you grab something to eat at work?

29. That sounds like so much fun!
I have a good friend who's family takes me in as well. :D Hope you all enjoy your food!

I'll eat something small here at work and then I'll eat later tonight hopefully. My friend Kevin doesn't have family here and I'm hoping to take him out to eat. :shrug: Not sure though.

11. Yes, kind of.
Getting ready to head out to the farm, that is an everyday kind of deal but I love it and it is mine so it is really not like having to go work for someone else.

Seems I have always worked jobs that required holiday and weekends. Bummer isn't it?

I hope your day goes easily.

12. Same to you.
Hopefully you don't have to work too hard! :)

And you're right, it is a bummer to work holidays/weekends. Especially if you want to plan a trip around those holidays. :(

Have fun working!
