HOW WAS YOUR WEEKEND?

My weekend started early.

I left work a little after noon on Friday, sick.

One of the receptionist had left before me and several others don't feel well either.

I've never been one to go to bed.
Instead  I usually curl up in my big chair where I can doze on and off
but still be close enough to the back door to let the dogs out when they need to potty.

So I slept the day away and then the night and Saturday
I just laid around staring at my phone, taking photos of my pets, 

reading blogs and scrolling through Facebook and answering texts from work.

My first one was early morning.
Then another after lunch time.

Another later in the day.

I find it odd that for a job that everyone else thinks is so easy,
no one seems to be able to do it without questions.

And I am the Queen of documentation.

I leave notes about absolutely everything.

Anyway. I read stuff, thought about stuff and slept.

Nora stayed close. 

She's my protector.

My cat Charlie 

tried to push his way in and Harry 

cuddled up to me.

Ghost is with me always. 24/7

And as usual was right in my face watching me.

Here's an Artsy photo of Harry.

Oh yeah. I surfed around on Instagram and posted a few photos.

Seriously how did I ever survive without this phone?

Oh wait. I read books.

Today, Easter Sunday, I woke up still sick.

My head throbbing, my gut churning and aching all over.

I got a phone call from the new guy.

A cat at the clinic had jumped out if the it's cage when he went to clean it.

In his attempt to put the cat back in the cage, it clawed him up and he was bleeding pretty good
he said he couldn't get the cat but he thought he'd be able to finish the shift.

WHAT?!?!?!

So I had him call Doc and then told him to call me back and let be know what was going on.

So... Doc came in and bandaged him up and caught the cat and put him in his cage.

My worker  called me back and said he was fine now and would finish the shift.

All of THAT woke me up so
I decided to go downstairs and work on the basement.

I took breaks and did it a little bit at a time but
I actually cleared out quite a bit and organized it all.

Looking at it all made me wonder if I had made a mistake closing up my booth.
There's a lot of things I'm sure that would sell and I did ok. 

I made enough each month to pay for art supplies and some of the dog food.

Yep, maybe that was a mistake.

But maybe not.

I'll think about that later.

So then I got some texts from the girl that works evenings.
Different questions and things.

Then my sister, just checking in on me.

I did laundry and then did some more sketches, final ones,
for the paintings that I've been promising my friend.

Here's a quick peek at them.

So...

That's how I spent the weekend!

I only cried once. But that was over some silly video
with a Golden Retriever that reminded me of my dog Maddie who passed so many years ago.

So, I'd say I'm doing better.

Except for the sick part.

So not better physically but at least mentally.

Thank you everyone for your wise words. 

It helps to know I have friends out there!

XOXOXOXOXOXO

And I hope you had a Happy Easter.
