I can actually relate… not that I’m getting up early, still not having gone to bed…

Poor thing – I do hope for you that this serving business will end one day soon and that you’ll find something less tireing and unkind-to-your-feet but fabulously well-paid real SOOOOOON! Sleep well and have a great rest of what is left over of this Sunday. Mine is nearly over…

No worries. I am definitely NOT going back to the golf club. And if I do stay in the serving business, I am aiming for a small restaurant with much less square footage 😉
I’m relaxing today… ALL DAY.

Yep. Christmas party season… though the lights go on and the music is turned off at 1 am, there’s getting rid of the stragglers and the cleanup plus the re-setting up for the next event. Ugh.

Sadly, Sunday is not a ‘stay-in-bed’ day for me – but I see that the very minimal (just the painting!) lady is reading so she spends her day in the very best fashion!
