Eye OK, slow first day at the VC

May 27 – My eye looked like raw hamburger this morning but feels fine. Glad it's over and they found it and nothing worse happened. I'll be really keeping an “eye” on my eye!

Ready and raring to go!

We had to be at the VC at 9 for training. There still isn't a lot of inventory but we put what we had out and still expect more. There is no ice, no ice cream, no sodas and the snack vending guy came but the machine isn't working. We all left about 11:45 and Bill and I were to come back at 1 to officially open. I went to put change in the vending machine and a young man came up to use it and it didn't work, so I tried and tried but didn't see anything inside the machine that might make a difference. So I called Patty, our Eastern National contact and she didn't know how it works and said she'd call the company.

It was a pretty boring afternoon. We did have a number of guests but no one bought anything as most wanted ice, soda or ice cream. We closed at 6 and checked on our neighbors when we got home. They had to take their handicapped son to the emergency room yesterday. They now think he was only severely dehydrated so hopefully he will be home tomorrow.

I heated the leftover meatloaf to go with some orzo and mixed veggies. Then I had to do all of today's dishes and yesterdays since I wasn't feeling like it last night.

My eye is not as raw looking today and just feels a little sore to the touch.
