Another Weekend Almost Done

One of the best parts of a new job will have to be not having to work weekends. Sure, I know sometimes I'll bring work home with me or even perhaps go in on a Saturday or Sunday to catch up on something, but the simple fact that none of that will be required will be great. I don't mind weekends at SHP. It's just for the most part they are long and usually I am tired. No one really ever gets into a mode of working a weekend and stays out late or up late or just doesn't head to bed at a reasonable hour. Usually I stick out the hours at work, no matter how bored I am, but I just couldn't today. I left two hours early, but when there are two emails an hour to answer, it's just too much. I am hoping by leaving early today, there will be plenty work tomorrow for the entire day. I might take along a few scrap book pages to help pass the time. It's a lot to take to work though... so we'll see.

With that though, I realized as DH and I were out getting groceries that if things go as planned, I will only have to work five more of those dreaded weekends!!! I've had a countdown going at work since February, each day I get to tear a link off a chain. No one really knows what it signifies as I usually say it's a countdown for a cruise. Only my most trusted friends know the truth. And technically I am not really lying as DH and I are going on a cruise. You just need to add another 365 links or so to that chain. LOL. For those reading this who may be as confused as heck, I am graduating this December from NDSU for the second time and am hoping that degree fast tracks me to a better job. One in which my talents are appreciated... and properly compensated for. For now, I'm half way through the sixth weekend. Eight hours and counting. Woohoo!
