Today started my work week and also my first day of going to work without talking to Travis before going in. That was a bit strange. Work was pretty busy for breakfast today which is strange for a Tuesday. I was up front by myself until ten. Normally on Tuesdays the front person is by themselves all day but I guess we need two now (I don't think we need two).
Clearly we don't need two because I had time to do this!
Our new dishwasher started today also. Matt was scheduled on dishes too so he could train her but also in case she just left like the last one! So basically we were a few people overstaffed today and I felt so lazy because there wasn't much to do split between all those people! The new dishwasher has never worked in a restaurant before but man is she good at that job. She kept up with the pace and always had the dishes cleaned as soon as they were put in front of her. Travis and I were texting back and fourth all morning about work and his electrode test he was doing. Some test of his nerve impulses and brain waves. Sounded complicated to me!
I also had time to do this for Memorial Day
Work was so easy I was done on time but I had to stay and talk to Jane about a catering she wants me to deliver on Saturday. We also were talking about some schedule changes.
I stopped by the store to pick up diapers for Beth on my way home and finally got in around four. I hung around the house for a little bit and talked with Travis then went to Food Lion to get more grapefruit for my diet. Beth had me pick up a few things for her as well. I'm glad I just went to Food Lion (it's closer than Bi-Lo, my favorite store, and I was being lazy) because steak was on sale so I stocked up!
As I was checking out Beth texted me and said that JP told her he would be home in ten minutes but that she thought he was joking. I said to keep me posted. I was on my way to the gas station after Food Lion and saw his truck pulling off of the interstate! Totally not a joke. He had come home four days early to surprise her after telling her he was in California all day! How sweet!
Crazy looking clouds rolling over the grocery store
After I got home I put my groceries and away and started cooking my dinner. I had laid chicken out the night before so I had to save the steak for another night. Beth and JP went for a walk after I ate dinner. I wanted to stay out of their way and give them as much time together as I could. I know its got to be strange for them to have me here. I can't help but feel sort of like a third wheel! Man has it been forever since I've had that feeling! Travis is always with me so I don't have that feeling! So that was a strange thing to think about. If your husband is looking into trucking prepare to feel that if you hang out with your couple friends while he is away! I guess its a little bit different in my situation since I'm staying with them while Travis is away but still just a warning! Tomorrow I plan to give them as much alone time as I can!
After they got back I talked to Travis for a good long while and then it was bed time! Good night world!
