So today I got up and got ready and went out to get the ice off my windshield... only to find it was not going to just slide off on the snow that was under it. Ohhhhh no, we had to use the scraper like a bat to whack holes in it, and then as a lever to pry and pop the ice off so I could pull it off my car. It was not easy, my hands got very cold, and I got a late start. :P
I figured that'd be fine though, I'd still make it by 9:45am, and all would be well.
YEAH, THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
So like, I'm driving and it's flurrying a bit, and by the time I made the second section of Jockey St it is a FULL BLOWN BLIZZARD. And since the roads were already wet they turned to ice with snow on top so it was like... 10mph traveling conditions as the wind made you slide all over the place. I WAS NOT A HAPPY PERSON.
So much for 9:45am. >_<;
I didn't make it in until 10:20am thanks to those two set backs. I mean, by the time I hit 146 it was sunny as could be! No more blizzard! But I passed five vehicles in ditches, plus one County Waste garbage truck in a ditch. o_o; Yikes.
Not like it mattered. Huma, Andrew, and I got the kiosk open, and Alix was delayed due to her own car troubles. And in the end we accomplished what we set out to do, which was to pack up all the merchandise.
And let me tell you, THAT WAS A BITCH. Having to fill out tons and tons of inventory sheets for each box. UGH. I'm glad we decided against trying to organize them. That would have been MURDER.
Mark was still pushing for us to stay open until Sunday, but we pretty much told him no flat out. And we're not doing it. Because it's just pointless.
So tomorrow I go in to help Alix with the FedEx stuff, and we're shipping it all out. Then all we have to do is wait for the movers to say they're coming. Susan is being awesome about all of this too, and letting the kiosk stand while we wait for that confirmation ourselves. It's going to be a short day tomorrow though, and I don't care. Just means I can get some stuff done that needs to be done and be happy.
The weather was shitty going home tonight too. :P
Health wise I've been having random panic attacks for no reason, still, and I hate it. But they're occurring less and less, so it'll be all good soon enough.
AND MONDAY I'M BACK IN MY BELOVED SARATOGA! *clings to*
That's pretty much it. I'm still on the hunt for a new job, and Saturday I'm going to go down to the Saratoga Borders to inquire about that cafe job. Not exactly what I want to be doing, but shit, with the economy the way it is beggars can't be choosers and it'd keep my foot in the door. ;_;
With that I'm off to bed. Busy day tomorrow. Work, karate, refinancing my student loan, and just plain being awake. lol
