Picked up some overtime Friday night because we have so few women at the moment that there just was nobody to stay. I hope they don't wait until last minute next Friday to ask me again. Maybe I should be preemptive and just offer on Monday so that I'll be expecting it. I wish they'd hire more women, though! I guess they're just not applying.
So, Saturday morning Eor let me sleep in, and we didn't get near as much yardwork done as we normally do on a Saturday, but gosh I feel as though I need the rest. I just feel as though we've been going going going forever. Anyway, we did weeding and clipping and spread paint stripper on a couple of doors we'd like to add to our place for winter-time (there's one which used to have glass panels in it, and I'm excited at the idea of putting frosted glass in so we can use it on our bedroom, I think that would be really cool looking!) and I made a huge beef curry in hopes some friends would stop over, but they didn't show and so Hawk and his mate had some when they got back and were most delighted. :)
Hawk and H-Mate had headed on up to visit Dad on Friday night, with the apparent intention of staying until Sunday, but they didn't sleep well on Saturday night, even though they were sleeping in their van, which they've slept in often and is a familiar bed for them. Somehow they both had nightmares. I attribute it to sleeping near Dad's house. They took Dad to see Alistair Frazier and Natalie Haas in concert at the Strand in Rockland - I'm so envious! Frazier and Haas put on a really good show the last time we saw them. He's a good - probably VERY good - fiddle player and an absolute ham, she's quiet and a just effing amazing cellist. And I guess Dad was very attentive to the music and seemed to have a very good time.
But their report on his health is not good. Apparently he's pretty shaky, and when he stands his blood pressure can drop so precipitously that his knees just buckle. It's... yeah. I don't know as he has much longer.
