friday friday friday

I had the rare free moment on a Friday and thought I'd try some more regular blogging (still trying to get into that habit).

Oh, it's another 14-hour workday for me today. I LOVE that camera job, but switching the hours later (previously ending at 9pm, now ending at 11pm) has made my every-other-friday-sometimes-other-days-when-needed much much longer.
My dear friend is leaving again on another tour, this one is only three weeks though. But that means I'll be working alone again. I'll miss her as my friend, but I really will miss her at work--she does a lot, a whole lot and much faster than I could ever think about doing it (of course, she does have about five years experience on me...). And when she's gone, the owners still come in, but they bring their very small children with them; which basically means, that they don't have time to do any other work but running the register.
But it is Friday, and I'm opening tomorrow which means my weekend will officially start at 5 on Saturday....no plans as yet. Last weekend was so packed, that it will be nice just to stay in with my rock star and ole chubbers.
We've agreed to keep my sister's crazy-sweet puppy (a one year old boxer mix), Lizzy, next week while she travels with the rest of the paternal family down to Florida for a big ole family vacation (on top of not really caring for my relatives, I can't really afford to miss any more work right now). All that to say that we're working on puppy-proofing the house. She's nowhere near as destructive as she was four months ago, but she's still a puppy; a big old puppy.
Happy weekend!!
