Naps, Juice and Cookies

Its a federal Holiday, but not for us!

Morning opens with the runner (25) calling in sick, within the hour the p.m. receptionist (24) calls in without transportation and our a.m. receptionist (21) needs the money but doesn't want to stay because her college friends are in from out of state and its their last afternoon together...Oh the thrill of working with twenty year olds!!

Honestly part of me is so completely envious of their still free spirits and lack of personal baggage, the other part is inconvenienced and annoyed! Believe it or not kids, every now and then I still want to take the day off and hang out with my friends too, but none of us dare do it in this climate, there is too much at stake!

Tomorrow we will be talking about working, dependability, being flexible and responsible. Looking back to early childhood, I now see why our teachers were so excited about nap time for the kids and why we kids were so excited about lining up for juice and cookies!

Take time out, give a little, get a little and every body's happy!

And we're off...
