I'm not sure where this attitude came from but it is here. Bubba popped in for a nap last Friday, then left again, I meanwhile tended to things, mostly stuff I stupidly volunteer for - nonetheless - I made 20 pounds of mashed potatoes Saturday night, and my hands are still paying the price.
I shutter to think what was on those peels to cause this reaction...
I got grumpy Saturday afternoon when the person who supposed to be in charge oft his dinner kept saying "not me" and "I don't know" and the "president put this stuff somewhere" - of course the president couldn't be bothered to show up to help set up - so my opinion is if it ain't how you want it then come here and do it yourself.
Of course whiny #2 in charge isn't a good method to take either.. just get the job done and move on...
So - Saturday night, potatoes and more potatoes - then turkey carving, clean kitchen, then bed and dead.
Sunday arise, clean up leaves left in the street, warm up potatoes and turkey, iron table cover for volunteer organization, clean me up, get warmed up stuff to lodge, help set up, talk whiny down because stuff is showing up that wasn't on her list -- who cares?? We might have too many potatoes - so what? We always run out - this year we had leftover - BFT it's potatoes.
I cut off the brown bag auction - 2 hours was WAY to freaking long, people were leaving, and I had had enough of me!
Clean up, done, outta there, home and DEAD - before during and after the freaking Steeler's game.
(insert long, loud, string of foul football words here....)
Monday - the alarm went off about 15 minutes after I went to bed. Up, morning routine, work all day, home, unload dishwasher, make dinner (warm leftovers) eat, watched my taped afternoon show, make a list, and gather my stuff and go shopping, cheap store doesn't have everything, so go to store 2, get final stuff, get to lodge, unload, get organized, things are looking good, then get practice started... now I was doing good, tired, ready to get practiced and go home... I made the crack as I opened my book to re-learn my 3 lines that I needed to "learn my part" Head lady making sure we knew our three lines, said very snottily - "You mean you don't know your work?"
I as snarky replied "its 3 lines I'll know it before you call on me" And I did. Suck it lady. So back came that annoyed attitude... and I said it again this morning, and I will on the way home, and again tomorrow. It's three blessed lines... I got it and if I don't the world will not end.
so, yes, I will admit to being a bit bitchy during practice. I paid attention to what I needed to know, I will do my job tomorrow night and I will do my best not to let Miss Annoyed come roaring back out.... I'm not making promises - but I'm doing my best.
Off to email a time line to get stuff done... what joy!
I really have to learn how to say NO!
