Since last we spoke, let's recap the time shall we? Saturday Bubba up early in his oh- so - considerate way you know suitcase on the bed, lights on, muttering to himself, etc. SO laying on the doorbell the next time I have to hit the road early - line says Thursday. I was up and moving to deal with the Girl's group book sale - all day.
A bit of entertainment late in the day a man walked in and cruised the books, selecting checking, asked if we had a restroom - took his sweet time in there... came back and for the better part of an hour checked books... now what made the whole situation weird (other than all this stuff). Let me describe this guy... short, soccer cleats, fleece shirt that looked like it had been through the shredder but the kicker was his hair, this was bed head on some bad drugs. How to truly describe this mess so you all have a picture... think dread locks the early years - hair was long but only shoulder length and the top of his head he had a Cindy-lou-who pony tail up top - only it looked like a bulb of matted stuck together hair. Around the bulb there were tuffs of various lengths sticking out with some stuck in clumps other just sticking out everywhere... think every child predator mug shot you've ever seen and that is pretty much this guy... creepy.
He finally left and telling me as we helped him load up his books that he teaches little kids soccer and he was glad he was able to make the sale. Oh yeah we were thrilled too... yeesh no way I'd let my kids near this guy... dude it's called soap, water, shampoo and a hair cut. $4.99 at the Hair cuttery - look into it. Ick.
Sunday - ah Sunday. I didn't get to sleep in (thanks Shelby) but I didn't get dressed until almost noon, putzed around, had a "discussion" with the husband about yard work HE thought I should be doing Sunday(remember HE'S in Vegas). I told him it was raining. And it had - that morning, and of course the sun came out in the afternoon - I still didn't care. This was my day OFF and I was going to be selfish. I'd be a monkey's uncle before I was going to fight the crowds at Home Depot lugging 5 - 25 pound bags of mulch and extra stuff to come home and deal with weeds. And they still aren't done. It will be next weekend. I have to get my oil changed this week... before my engine blows up!
Then came Monday - raining and yucky traffic stucked. Got into work staff meeting was wonderfully uneventful... busy busy catching up on stuff. Then the afternoon hit the shredder... we had the Lessons Learned meeting from the testing mess of last week - or as I like to call it "How can we avoid sending QA to Huntsville again and costing me a fortune." I had pages of notes from my trip, I had a process I would have liked to try out so I don't have to go bopping off to Huntsville with 5 minutes notice and another ruined weekend... (count now stands at 2)
Of course the reception I got for my ideas were met with dead silence so I am safely assuming that ALL parties are on board for this idea... (sarcasm boys and girls) but I'm going to do my level best to try and make things work from my end - and have a bag packed (with extra stuff) just in case. Today is another busy day - and Aunt Ing is not thrilled with this but it is what it is.
Now the cherry on my poo Sundae of a Monday? I found out that the guy I have been fighting with to do the parts of his job - goes to HIS management and says he needs support because QA in VA isn't support him... to say I was HOT is an understatement. I have spent the last YEAR on this job trying to get him to do something along the lines he's claiming he now needs support. And still thinking about it gets me mad as hatter. And now my Tuesday is brimming over with things to do and not he will to get them done I guess I better sign off...
Bubba is home late tonight - stay tuned
