Summer Schedule

I know; this is late. Life has suddenly gotten very busy. I started work last week. It's not at the job that I wanted, but it is work. A title company is facing litigation and put a call out to a temp agency for help in getting files sorted through and prepared according to the judge's wishes. The group that started with me on Tuesday was responsible for 800 boxes of files and I could get through 3 or 4 a day. We finished them up this morning and moved on to a new project which ended up being much easier since we only had to find two specific documents in each file and toss the rest. I also learned today that this position will continue through the week after Memorial Day. So for the next few weeks I'm working from 5 to 7 at UPS, have an hour to get to work by 8 (and at this time of the year I must have a shower). I get off at 4:30 if I make it on time in the morning. Once I'm home I catch my breath and start in on supper and lunch for the next day. So life during the week is pretty much work, fix food and sleep.

Some tidbits from the week.
  • My family wasn't the only one thinking Mankato was a good half-way meeting spot to celebrate Mother's Day. We ran into one Worthington family and heard of another doing the same thing we did.
  • Mother's Day provoked the heaviest volume at UPS since Christmas. As we were loading the umpteenth box of flowers onto the plane headed from Grand Rapids MN someone commented, "They love their mothers up there." Someone else piped in, "The kids all moved away."
Time for me to sign off and finish eating my supper, wash a pile of dishes and head to bed.
