Guided by prompts from WDC blogging challenges... and of course, life
HI! I'm Jenn - and I'm all over the place (well, at least my mind is). In this blog, I have attempted to gather my thoughts on things prompted/inspired by WDC blogging challenges from "Journalistic Intentions, "The Soundtrack of Your Life, "Blogging Circle of Friends , "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS and, well, LIFE.

After two glorious weeks of having just a five-day work week, I find myself again working six-day weeks. Our newest employee, a rehire who pretty much shat on us the last time she worked for us, has once again decided that she no longer needs a job and has left us high and dry. I honestly don't even know why she was rehired to begin with. The last time she was with the company, she left the building on her break and never came back. And I was left trying to run the entire store at night by myself (which, by the way, is against policy and is a huge safety issue). But we were desperate for employees so the powers greater than me decided it would be a good idea to hire her back on. Well, they can see how well that decision worked out for them!

But that's okay because apparently, I am Wonder Woman (I wonder all the time why I continue to put myself through all this stress). Need someone to fill in for someone else? Jenn. Need a job done right? Jenn. Need some poor soul to work away her life for practically peanuts? Jenn again. But supposedly I am to get a raise in April. We'll see where that goes. But for now, I work.

All work and no rest makes Jenn a grouchy girl, by the way. I wonder what they're going to do when I've worked myself sick again. Oh well. We'll cross that roaring rapid when it gets here.

Have a great day y'all! Thanks for reading my rant.

My birthday began early today, with my youngest, Lucy, messaging me at 12:35am to tell me "Happy Birthday" before anyone else could. At approximately 6am my Mom also messaged me. Coffee with my Mark after I got out of bed. When he took one of the dogs to the park, I ate strawberry ice cream for breakfast while sitting in the sunlight infused window enjoying the warmth and watching the daffodils and quince flowers dance in the wind. Quite a happy and peaceful morning. I have been trying to make the most out of my day before I am forced to go to work for the rest of it. Mark brought home a birthday surprise for me when he returned - treats from my favorite deli/bakery. And they are delicious! The owner of the establishment helped him choose the best stuff. The day continues to be a great day, with birthday wishes coming from both family and friends here on WDC, by text, and on social media. It is heartwarming that so many people have taken time out of their own schedules to wish me well on my birthday. I hope everyone knows how very much I appreciate it.

More later, when I get back from work (or maybe tomorrow if I'm too tired by then.) Thanks everyone!
