Just another day in the life

09-22-23 Last Shift?

September 22, 2023


Today I was rudely awoken before 5:30 am by Missy growling and chasing the neighbourhood Tom cat out of the house. It may be time to get the trap and set it in the yard, keeping Missy in and then take it to the SPCA. I have told the owner that he is coming in and eating my cat’s food to no avail.

The day was full of work for free and some for money. I created invitations for the FPPAS end of year celebration on Paperless Post and sent them out to 76 people. It took no time at all for quite a few to reply positively. It is fun planning parties!

I had been asked last week to cover a shift at Arby’s for a teenager who had an important thing to do. He had asked me directly and although I have much to do, I knew Rae needed me to take the shift. She made it be 4:45 to 7 and I showed up to get it done. People were off sick and there was a guy who just started today, but we got things done. Come 7 there was still much to do so I agreed to stay. I was busy sweeping the lobby when the guy I was covering for strolled in with his girlfriend. He was oblivious to how much of a dick move that was. I was annoyed and he burned a bridge. I ended up working for and extra 45 minutes. That was fine but I was tired and hungry. I came home and fed Missy, locked her cat door and puzzled for a little while as I watched the recent season of Sex Education.

I forgot that the best thing that happened today was I got a call that I have finally been assigned a family doctor! I am to go for a meet and greet with Dr. Wolff next week. It has been years, I am so grateful.
