So this past weekend Mike and I went back to Ohio to relax along with have some fun times. With Mike working overnights on the stupid team for work that he supposedly signed up for. Since we were wanting to leave early on Friday, we rented a hotel room near the store he would be working at Thursday night. It was a nice reprieve. King-sized bed, jacuzzi tub, free internet, and cable. The tub was wonderful, just couldn't figure out how to work the jets until we left Friday morning. Duh.... LOL
Friday night, we had Taco Salad with Joe and Jenny's family for dinner. It was a fun evening that showcased a new dessert I wanted to try. Amazingly enough it was easy and just as delicious as it looked. Mike and I ended up leaving their house around 12:30am because we were all having fun playing Sports on the Wii. It was so funny watching cute Josie playing baseball. That little girl is the cutest thing. She is a main reason why Mike and I want to have one of our own.
Saturday night, we had plans with Teri and Chad to eat dinner at an area Mexican restaurant. Turned out, that Kath and David joined us. It was a fun night with everyone talking about recent activities, job problems and possibilities. All in all it was a fun dinner with siblings. We head back to Kath's house for more talking and relaxing. Rachel and Alec were there and slowly played our Wii that we brought with us.
Sunday brought church and relaxing. After church brought lunch at China Garden with Kath's family and the Fugate's. Mom and Dad were going down to meet Jon and Angie to view a house that they are thinking of buying. We were invited to go, but we felt that since it was a parents only request, we would just be in the way or bring awkward conversation stops. So instead we looked around the north end of Sidney for ideas for the future then back to the house for laundry.
After waking up from a nap, I was able to get all in but one load before heading out for dinner with Mike. Well dinner at Wendy's proved to be a bad decision that was made obvious at 2:30 in the morning with intense stomach that took me to the rim of the toilet. It wouldn't have been so bad if Mike and I weren't planning on leaving between 9 and 10. By the time I was able to stand the slowing of the pain, it was past 4. We finally got up near 11 I believe. Everything was packed in the car and we got ready to leave. Problem - battery turned up to be shot.
We got a jump from AAA and had enough juice to get to the mechanic who was able to get us in. My parents paid the bill which has helped out in more than they know. All day, I had a nagging feeling that I would have been scheduled to work even though I had asked for the time off since I'd be in Ohio. Eventually we had things set up and just waiting that I decided to call work and get my schedule for the week. Talk about frustration. They had me scheduled on Monday just like I was fearing, from 4-8. Supposedly the district manager forgot about the final day on my requested off. They also scheduled me on Tuesday from 4-8, but that was it. Again, the district manager again supposedly forgot to take off my requested days off from the previous week's schedule. By the time we left, it was just past 4 in the afternoon and Mike and I were exhausted emotionally, physically, and financially.
We pulled in our apartment complex around 10:30 at night. We were okay with it because we missed all of the rush hours, and we didn't hit the bad weather that we were supposed to get. So needless to say, I'm pursuing a different job big time right now so that I can quit Subway hopefully before I am supposed to work next. Pray for me and hope that I will have a job that I don't cry about going to before having to go.
