It was a hard day today for many reasons. I suppose the biggest one was the stress of training – dispatch is too crowded with three people in it and next week it will have four so that will even be worse. I’m not looking forward to that.
Had one of the Captains explain something to me in a way that I thought it should be done but was different from the way I was told to do it. I wish people could all get on the same page. It is so disheartening to have one person tell you to do it one way and the other to tell you not to do it that way. I never know who to follow because either way someone thinks I’m doing it wrong. I’m just so weary of it all.
It is almost 9pm and I’m cooking supper. I have to admit, I’m eating more for comfort than due to hunger. A steak sounded really good so that is what I’m broiling right now. Stopped at HyVee on the way home to pick up a few things – the store was packed. The clerk asked me if I had all my grocery shopping done for Christmas and I groaned because I haven’t even taken stock yet of what I have and what I will need to buy. I need to do that tomorrow night.
The weather is supposed to be bad the rest of the week – I’m so hoping the weather people are wrong because I can’t take it if they are right. I’m just not feeling up to more snow driving. I’ve got to pick up my son on Christmas morning and take him back home later in the day – really want it to be a day of stress free driving as I’ll have enough other things to be worrying about. Ugh.
I should go to the gym – I know this – but I am too tired. I know, that is no excuse. I’m afraid it would wake me up more though when I am so close to bedtime. Maybe I can go first thing in the morning.
