So tired.
I got my second series of shots in my knees today. WORST POSSIBLE DAY FOR THIS TO HAPPEN!.
Today was the Volunteer Luncheon. This means the staff put on the luncheon. This year the theme and menu was my idea. Note to self: stfu next year! I normally get along with everyone. I would say I'm pretty even tempered but one staff member had to keep coming up with other ideas. I said lets do enchiladas: 50% of them will be beef and the other 50% will be cheese. This other staff member butted in and said lets do chicken!. I object due to cost and more labor intensive. Overruled.
Yesterday we cooked. Mrs. Bossypants had all sorts of things to tell me about how to do this gig. Then at some point she told me she had never made enchiladas before. WHAT?!! About that time staff member #2 came in and started asking Mrs. BossyPants how to make the cheese enchiladas. I was doing a slow steam. So I stopped and then explained the procedure to her.
Cut to today. My knees are killing me but we have to do this luncheon. Its a big sucess but I find myself rinsing off dishes and listening to the volunteers rave about the food while the other staffers take the praise.
Long story made short. It was a lot of work, it was a great sucess but I am paying with the pain in my knees and my last nerve being irked. I like these people, I truly do but I am going to take a backseat on this next year. Mrs BossyPants is a good person when she isn't telling me what I should be doing for a recipe she has never made.
Grrrrr.
