Sleepless Nights and Endless Days

I've been up since 5:15 this morning. I tossed and turned until 5:54, when I decided I couldn't stand it anymore, and just got up to start my day. Welcome to the week of the Grand Re-Opening!

I know exactly why I couldn't sleep until my alarm (set for 6:30 this morning)...I have a gripe list about a mile long about things at the Dossin this weekend and questions I need answers to before we re-open. I feel like I'm still way out of the loop with much of the information and I just don't like that feeling. Today will be a long day too - I have a shitload of stuff in my car from this weekend and so I have to unpack that, my normal 10:30 meeting and another one at noon, training on the exhibits, timecards to sort through and calculate (which I think my idiots messed up on again), copies to make for my community outreach in Allen Park tomorrow, First Aid kits to sort through and place in the museum, and the list will go on and on until I go absolutely insane. Just so you know, that is way past crazy and not in a way that can be taken lightly either. And I'm forcing myself to at least get out of the building for a half hour for a lunch break, but this won't be until after my meetings.

I'll probably end up being at work between 7:30 and 8 this morning and staying until about 5 tonight. This might seem normal to some of you office-dwellers, but my office Mondays are only required to be seven hours. It shouldn't be a big deal though, my weekend days are always upwards of eight hours straight. At least today I get a lunch.

Um, I think that's it for now. After work I'm off to babysit my little cousins, which short of a trip to Lansing might be just what I need right now. Especially after what I am only anticipating be a hellish - yet hopefully successful - day in the cubes.
