So today I am exhausted!!! So I have made it to where I can fall asleep between 12 and 1 which it works and I feel like I am getting more sleep but for some odd reason last night I was wide awake until 4. I think I finally fell asleep watching richie rich. I don't remember Shawn coming home at six, but I do remember the alarm going off at 8 so he could get up and get ready for court. Then the phone rang a little after that and I end up having to work today. Oh well I got a 10.00 gift card and extra hours out of it. Today was a beautiful day outside. But I did leave work with one of those uneasy feelings.
I know I haven't worked at my job that long but their are a lot of regulars which I guess is what happens with a small town. Well one guy J he is an older man probably in 50's maybe 60's anyway he normally comes in the evening and gets an ice cream bar and a coke. He eats his ice cream bar inside the store and usually talks to me or whoever for a good 30 minutes. Well during the week he comes in around 2:30 and gets a lil debbie cake and a coke and does the same thing. Today he tells me that this morning he found out that he has throat cancer and they will be removing it on Tuesday. Then his friend B comes in who is about the same age and he gets his diet drpepper and beef jerky and tells J and I that he found out this morning he has Colan cancer. I was at a loss for words, two guys in one day. I just kept having a flash back memory of when Stephanie told me her leukemia is back, and it made me sick to my stomach. All I can do is keep them in my prayers. It is just crazy...how one day your life can change in a moment. I mean I thought I have had major problems these last two weeks being sick but that's nothing compared to that.
So today I found out that I am working Thanksgiving evening and Christmas Eve, but the good news would be I get Christmas day off. Shawn works Christmas Eve and 6 hrs into Christmas day. Well I am going to go to bed...now that I have typed a novel.
