After about 5 weeks of over time and insano doubles of doom (working from 4pm to 8am) it's all coming to an end. I'm into my last 16 hour shift of the month, although it's gonna be a tough one, 16 hours work, 7.5 hours off to sleep and then back to work.
Life has been moving at a pace where I feel I can rarely catch my breath. It's a rinse and repeat cycle of work, sleep, garden, work sleep garden, work.
Any of the plans for this summer were put on the back burner due to financial difficulties (thus all the overtime) but it seems like things have smoothed out. Although, after talking to two co-workers I'm doing better than many. All the bills were paid and nothing is behind in payments so that is a blessing.
I have friday and saturday off for the first time in months and it is so easy to triple book myself for the weekend with all the people that I want to spend some time with, it's been so long. Although, to be honest, I'm rather exhausted and might just end up trying to catch up with cleaning and laundry.
This sept before going back to school I am taking a week off to go to maine for a visit for the first time in many years. It will be good to see everyone! It will be good to have the time off as well.
It's good to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
