Working My Tail Off

Things have been very slow this week at work. Our last call was Monday afternoon. Other than that, there hasn't been anything happening. So yesterday and today, everybody except my boss and the secretary was summoned to the owner's house, where we spent the days pulling weeds from his flower beds and cleaning his gutters. Today, we laid new landscaping mulch. It's been a very hot, tiring 2 days, and I'm glad the weekend is here.

Tomorrow we plan to go to a local theme park. I'm looking forward to riding the rollercoasters. The whole family is off this weekend, and this will be our first significant outing together in a while.

Tonight my son and I played softball on our church team. For the second week in a row we had our butts handed to us on a silver platter. They finally invoked the mercy rule and ended the game about 10 minutes early. That's how bad we were playing. However, we played better than last week, so if we can improve each week, that will be ok.
