The day to day

Not much new here. My job at CVS is going well. I have one more week of orientation in the clinic before I'm on my own. I've seen hundreds of sick people over the past few weeks and given maybe a thousand flu shots! The Minute Clinic is a happening place. I can't say it has been difficult adjusting to my new 3 day work week. I actually have time to blog on a Wednesday morning :) The days that I do work are long....very very very long. I usually don't get home until 9pm. Still trying to adjust to the 12 hour shifts, I've never handled them well in the past but I'm hoping it will start to fell more normal soon.

Greg has been working like a crazy person. He has worked the last 13 days straight and isn't about to stop any time soon. He plans to work through this weekend and all of next week too so I won't be seeing much of him! I miss my hubby. I'm glad he has been given so much responsibility at work I know it is really a huge compliment in disguise. His company must really like him if they want to spend 10 hours a day 7 days a week with him ;)

I attempted to rake leaves over the weekend. It did not go well. I am such a wimpy girl and was barely able to clear 1/4 of our yard. Today it feels like I might have torn every muscle in my back (not really, but I'm super sore), I guess the yoga just isn't cutting it. After I finished bagging the massive piles of leaves my sweet neighbor informed me that "most people" use a blower and a tarp. You just blow the leaves onto the tarp and drag the tarp to the side of the road. Wow! That would be sooooo much simpler than what I did! Can you tell I'm from Arizona? Do orange trees even lose their leaves? I can't remember. Greg and I have learned a lot from our neighbors. They have become like a second set of parents. I know they just sit inside their house, looking out the window into our yard thinking...

...what the heck are those kids doing now.
