122.5

That’s 122.5 hours. That’s how many hours I turned in this morning for the past two weeks. M-Thurs of last week I worked 4A-2P. Fri and Sat I worked 4A-3P. Sun I worked 4A-7A. This week I worked M-Th 4A-2P. Yesterday I worked 4A-3:30P. And this morning I worked 4A-7A.

All the extra hours happened because my daytime coworker was in Florida on vacation with her sisters. She turned 60 and they offered to fly her down and cover her wages for the days of work she missed. Sweet deal. My working helped make it happen. I was glad to do it–besides we can certainly use the extra cash.

So today I have to de-fur my house, do some shopping things we need that are on special today. For those unaware: I don’t grocery shop. Nelson started doing that back when we lived in Wisconsin in the middle 80’s. I got tired of him complaining there was never anything to eat after I shopped. He became the coupon king and it’s just worked best. But today he’s pulling overtime so he gave me a very specific list of items to get at two stores. While I’m out I also need to stop at the library and post office.

Then I’m going to bed early tonight. Tomorrow I teach Sunday School and after worship Nelson and I will head down to Springfield for a meeting. Asher is going to spend the day with one of his little buddies. It should be good for both of them. On the way to the meeting Nelson and I will treat ourselves to lunch at Sonic–Yummers!

Yesterday early evening Asher came in from playing with his friend across the street and asked if we could play outside. Guess he didn’t get enough playtime. So we spent a little over a half hour playing soccer in the back yard. I won! It was a bit of a workout, but it felt really good.

Well, time to get moving. I need to put my clothes in the dryer too before I head out. Hope you accomplish all your goals for the day!
