Perpetual Ruminations

Friday - day 1 of antibiotic treatment

We better get this going, or the date and everything will be wrong. I have no time, and have to get ready for work, eat, and leave all in a few minutes. I was up earlier, but did my Bible study, then got a message, and then took a little nap.

I'm feeling pretty wore out, and ache all over. I know part of it is putting in these air conditioners, they weigh a ton. Part is also just not getting enough sleep, it's been a long time since I had a full eight hours and then only one night a week, if I was doing good. Most of all, I think it's this infection I have.

I started my antibiotic regime but do not have the right ones yet. I have some to get me by until we can pick them up tomorrow, and have started them. Another three weeks and I should be done. Why? Well I got bit, and the little stinker may have given me Lyme's Disease.

I'll try and write more after work.

I got home a bit later than I had hoped, but still before ten. I had to help the new guy out a little bit, then meet with a manager and discuss another guard. Looks like we are short another person again. We get one for each two we lose, so it's kind of difficult. I thought we had it back up to just one person short, but come Monday we will be short two people, again.

That means little time for anything other than work, but it's looking like I may have to make time for some stuff anyway. How it all turns out only time can tell, but I'm sure it will work itself out some day. For now, I am the only person left who has been there for a year or longer, and just barely longer.

It's amazing how much some people will resist doing something right. Oh well, it's better to be done with it. I have given every possible opportunity to help this person, it's his failure, not mine.

On the brighter side, we have two new people trained. One is doing an awesome job, the other is pretty new yet but I have no choice except to put him on his own shift. I think he will do fine. If we can get one more person who can work some flexible hours, we will be doing pretty good again.
