4, count 'em, 4 work days!

August 12 -  Back to work!  Bill went in at 9:30 and I went in at 10.  Actually the day went rather fast!  It wasn’t all that busy but I spent the first hour cleaning the rec hall and it was time for seasonals to stop in for their renewal papers so I did hand out some of those.

Before I knew it, it was 2 and Terri came in for her shift.  I left at 3 and Bill was already home as he had a acupuncture appt. at 5:30.  So I had some leisure time and did a load of laundry.  I made spaghetti with meatballs, traditional style for Bill, and for me I used a white pizza sauce that I added fresh grated parmesan to it and some meatballs.  I was just finishing mine when Bill got back so I warmed his and dished it up.  We had salads as well.  That is one of Bill’s favorite meals so he was happy!

We watched some Perry Mason tonight and RV Connection. 

August 13 – Today we didn’t go in until 3 so once we had breakfast I went into town for a spell. As I was leaving Bill joined our neighbor Pam in her daily walk about the park.

I did a short stop at Wal-mart in hopes of finding yarn the colors I wanted and batteries for Bill’s pedometer.  I only found 1 skein of yarn but I did get some fresh corn then I headed on to Micheal’s.  Nextdoor is Dollar Tree and I found the right size batteries there.  I did find my yarns at Michaels and a marked down T-shirt for me for next year July 4^th!

Bill said he had a good walk and was getting his lunch when I got home.  I put my purchases away and got on the computer.  I’m still dealing with Century Link from June and I have some other calls to make relating to Bill’s cancelled credit cards.  It’s frustrating and impossible to just get a live person anywhere!  I updated my expense log and caught up on email.  I took a break for a quick lunch and got back on the computer.

It was a busy afternoon  as the weekenders start coming in on Thursdays and it  is the time of year when the new contracts for seasonal folk go out, so they come in with there paperwork.

Bill brought in some warmed up leftovers for my dinner and he ate his at home.  He has a bit more freedom than I do in the office.

August 14 - Today was 10 – 3 which is better!  It was swamped in the office with arrivals and seasonal contracts.  Still pretty hot out! 

After work and showers I wanted to go to Target in Dayville and we decided to have dinner

Dayville's Gut Bustas!

while we were there.  We ate at “Gut Busters” BBQ.  Yuck!  They do NOT know how to make BBQ, were out of several things and they DO NOT make brisquet! We shared a pound of tasteless pulled pork and since they were out of slaw, Bill had fries that, seriously, had the texture of leather and I had beans with pork in them and they were the best of the meal!  We brought home a bit of the pork.

We stopped at Target but they didn’t have a little square pan and I had asked before we left if anything was needed for tomorrow’s ice cream social or activities.  They gave me a list of 5 things but I only found 2 at Target so we stopped in the same plaza at a grocery and got the rest.

We will be working tomorrow a shorter shift to help out with “Camper Appreciation” weekend.

August 15 – The busiest day so far!!  I didn’t get to read a word or crochet a stitch today!  I barely got to have a drink of water.  We were scheduled from 9:30 to 1.  It was cooler out today and the campground was packed!  We had a lot of traffic in the store area and there was BINGO, well, 3 different kinds of BINGO.  Since it was cooling down we sold a lot of firewood and there were a lot of tent campers so we went through a bunch of ice as well.

I went home and was beat!  Bill decided to go down to the pavilion to hear/see the comedy act.  He really enjoyed it but I was too pooped and just wanted to chill by myself.  After he got back our neighbors built a fire and invited us and another couple over so we visited and swapped stories til about 7:30 and I was getting hungry and really should not eat so late.  I seasoned and fried 2 boneless pork chops and microwaved 2 ears of corn and called it a meal!  The chops were good but the corn was awesome! 

We read a while and hit the hay!
