Yesterday, oh my

Yesterday was a HARD day. It started out rough with Bullfrog getting up EARLY. He has been getting up before 7am the past few mornings and it is starting to weigh on me. I watched part of the KSU/KU game and KSU decided not to show up for the game. At least last year we showed for the game and almost won. My heart is beginning to break for my beloved team as they are starting to give in way too easily. The game wasn't over when I had to pick up a co-worker and go to work but it was over by my first break.


Daycamp was ROUGH yesterday as well. We had 8 CRAZY large dogs, 3 of which liked to play with the drinking water so by the end of my hour and 15 minutes with them, I was soaked from my knees down. *sigh* Then I went into small dogs and stayed there until my break. That wasn't the bad part though. In the late afternoon, we had 2 of the large dogs check out, one of them rammed the side of the gate while we were taking them out and busted the door. It fell on my co-worker's head giving her a welt and then we had 4 of the remaining 6 running loose. I threw the two dogs that were checking out into an empty room and our other manager ran for 2 of the 4 dogs, leaving the pet parents in the lobby alone for about 5 minutes. She took them into the front playroom and I grabbed the remaining 2. Then I ran back to assist my co-worker/other manager to get the final 2 dogs and get her into the front playroom. I then grabbed the 2 dogs checking out, got that finished and then took care of another pet parent that had come in. We were then way behind because we had a PCS (my status) quit, and the other called in a family emergency. We were lucky though because one of the night crew was willing to work a 12 hour shift (come in 1 hour early, work a 11 hour shift due to Daylight Savings), just to give us a hand. We still clocked out at 9:40pm. *sigh*

I then had to take care of my sister's cats and go shopping. I am glad I decided to go after work and not Sunday though, because the water was already low. I will go check on them again tomorrow after taking Peanut to school. I need to see if I can do advance voting tomorrow as well. I have a LOT to get done and somehow get Peanut from school and co-worker to work. I have a feeling that this week will not be any calmer than last week.
I need a vacation!
