Tired!

It's so hard to get back into the swing of working again when you haven't worked in three years. And when your current job is only working occasionally!

Last night was my 2nd night working. It was an ALS graduation. Not as crazy hectic as the Elks Convention which was my first night working.... and actually the biggest event that the club holds each year. Great night to start out on! ha! Anyhow, they said I did a great job that first night, which was good to hear.

So anyways, I went in last night at 4:30 and was home by 11:30, so it wasn't as long as the first night where I was home at 1am. It's a pretty easy job, but it's so tiring. Being on your feet for so long when you're just shy of being 7 months pregnant, it's a lot of work! I wore a pedometer last night from about 6ish to about 10:30. In that amount of time, I walked 3.88 miles. Holy crap! I was shocked to see that! Lots of back and forth, back and forth.

I work with one of my good friends here, Sarah... so it makes it actually fun. We carpool to and from work, as long as we are due in at the same time. And Sue, our boss, knows we're good friends, so she always pairs us together for serving. (We usually have 8-10 tables with about 20-25 people at each one... so you work in pairs.)

It was fun again last night, but I'm tired today! I've been having to get up with Austin during the night to take him pee pee so he doesn't wet the bed... so that is even more tiring! He's doing great though- so it's completely worth it. I got up at 3am with him, and he didn't go, so I got up at 6am with him and he did. When I went in at 6am and woke him up, he told me GOOD MORNING!!! uhhhh... NO! Back to bed you go after you pee, Mister! He did good though, went right back to sleep. And even when he came in my room at 8:45 this morning, I still wasn't ready. I told him to go back to sleep for a few more hours, but he wasn't having that. Dang! :)
So we're up and playing and HE isn't tired! :) You can definitely tell that he spent last night with his daddy though. He's feisty today! :) I did get the report that Austin colored on our walls with color crayons last night though..........

I go in again tonight at 4:30 for Casino night. I'll be cocktail waitressing, so hopefully this means that I'll get some tips! But just from the two nights that I worked so far I've made enough money for our gas money to get to Washington, and back home. YES!!! :)

On another note, I just learned that my Grandma Stevens is in the hospital. Starting yesterday, and then all night, she's been having heart palpitations, racing heart, and tightness in her chest. So this morning, my grandpa, brother, and his girlfriend Jen finally made her go into the hospital. So prayers are MUCH appreciated!

I know this is kind of a boring blog, but just wanted to let ya'll know how the job's going! And also get a prayer request out there for my grandma!
