Had last weekend off. Spent most of Saturday in bed catching up on sleep. Then Sunday was a day of cleaning and spending time with my family. Got my Dad and cousin to talk about hunting because Lisa was interested in it from a friend at school and my Dad could help her. He's actually going to let her borrow a gun and it launched him into this whole let me take out this gun and explain everything which had Lisa's and her younger brother Drew's while my Dad couldn't have been happier. I felt all proud of myself.
One of the new girls at work quit, we had two. She had family issues that needed to be taken cared of. It's hard because she'd worked in this field before and knew what she was doing. She'd easily gotten along with the residents and now she's just gone. Katie, the other new girl, hasn't worked in this field before and hasn't quite settled in yet. I think she'll do fine once she settles in, but right now it's a waiting game. It's rather obvious that she wasn't expecting to work in a total care house and she's uncomfortable with the idea of taking care of guys. Debbie and I have both been picking up the slack which is a slight hassle.
The Lab Tech that stopped by the house this morning pissed me off. She wanted a resident to do something he very obviously wasn't physically capable of doing and when I explained his medical condition she was still wanting something she couldn't have and he was getting upset. I was very tempted to say 'he's mute not deaf' as he was squeezing my hands in irritation. It was fustrating because I was trying to be there for him, reasuring because he doesn't like having his blood drawn and trying to explain and be helpful to the tech at the same time that she was insulting him. Luckily she found a vein and got his blood.
Of course I was already fustrated because another resident was having a full blown temper tantrum and I'd spent most of the morning trying to calm her down and be an authority figure. I think that my favorite guy could tell I was frazzled because he was very big on the insisting on getting hugs from me today.
And with a total change of topic I bought my Placebo CD yesterday. I went to two different stores, the first had it, but not the limited addition so they figured out where one was and called them and had them hold it for me. Then I went and got it. Best Buy has once again proven to have excellent customer service.
I also dropped off the stuff that belonged to the club yesterday at the school and then set up some dates for food sales since I still owe the club some money for the loan from student senate. I've been completely anti-social the last few weeks and the trip up there only served to remind me why. I mean it was nice to see Garry and Charles from RPA but the GSA club members I ran into except for Joe were just cold to me. Tony seemed disappointed in me that I hadn't shown up to be in his radio show and I explained about work and he understood so now I'm really wanting to show up Monday to be in the show because I miss it and it's almost over.
