Today was a typical Monday. It starts off with hubby getting up at 3:00 a.m. as usual, then at 4:30 a.m. or so he wakes me up by giving me my morning kiss and giving me my cup of coffee. After struggling to open my eyes I go to the bathroom, which is now fixed, and wash my hair. I come to the computer and check my mail then blow dry my hair, all the while still trying to get my eyes all the way open...LOL
While doing this my hubby has gotten dressed, packed our lunches, got our coffee ready to go, put everything we brought home on Thursday in the truck and is waiting patiently for me. I grab my pocketbook, make sure I have my phone and sunglasses and out the door we go, by this time is is around 5:20 - 5:30 a.m.. Thank heavens we work or should I say park at the same location so we get to ride together each day. I think this is a good thing cause I am still trying to wake up. We get to work at 6:00 a.m., kiss each other by and get into our work trucks.
Well this morning I had to go in the opposite direction of work because I had to pick up some paperwork from a Contractor's office before going to my office. I pick this up and head towards to office. When I get there my boss is upstairs and he wants to talk...the usual...how was your weekend, this was how mine was etc. I give him the papers and go back downstairs because I am swamped with paperwork. After about 30 minutes or so here comes my boss again, yapping nonstop. I guess I shouldn't complain because some people have bosses they can't bulls*** with. He tells me he has a meeting then he's gone at 10:30 a.m. and out the door he goes.
Finally, I can get some work done. After completed most of my work a co-worker comes in and talks and talks and talks, he finally leaves and it is quite, again. Before you know it, it is 3:30 and I head to District to meet hubby so we can leave for the day. At 4:00 p.m. we are out of there. One good thing is right now I am the book-keeper on 3 different projects. I have 2 project where there are Inspector's working under me, doing the field work and then the other project I am sole book-keeper on, so most of my days is spent in the office instead of inspecting the projects. Since I do the books I get to work 4 - 10 hour days so I get off on Fridays and have a 3 day weekend.
We run by the babysitters and pick up the lil princess and come home. I call my son in advance and have him throw a pizza in the oven and that is supper. We eat and hubby is not feeling good so he said he was going to watch Fantastic Four, the new one and lay down so me and the little one are playing but here in a little while I am going to bed myself. My son, Chris is the perfect babysitter, he loves her to death and she loves him even more. He will watch her until my daughter, Tiffany gets off work at 9:30 tonight, then we start all over, bright and early in the morning.
My other daughter, named Tiffany also, went job hunting today, we haven't heard anything from her so we don't know how that went. I sure hope she finds something soon. And the baby, Nikki popped in real quick to grab some gas money and off she went again, guess she will be home about 10:30 tonight.

Gosh, sounds like you work very hard, still, having the occasional 3-day weekend is some compensation I guess.
I never even realised there was two 5 o'clocks in a day!!!
PS ~ Thx for commenting over at my place, I just LOVE new visitors, although I am not as regular at the moment due to illness, but I blog when I can.
Typical Monday.....
Husband gets up, leaves toothpaste lid off, wet towels all over bathroom floor, dirty dishes, cup, cutlery, crumbs and bits of food all over kitchen tops and goes to work.
SIGH!!!
