Busiest weekend done
Oct. 22nd, 2024 07:40 amwhew. I'm still tired. I drove in Thursday night instead of Friday morning and I'm really glad I did. Those extra five hours of preparation time really did wonders for getting the displays ready ahead of time, especially since we had three outings on Friday night and I ended up having to drive a group instead of just coordinate like usual.
Saturday was the daycares. This is one umbella organization with like eight locations, so we set up a bunch of sites for them and in the end, the coordination went really really well. I had one person to check in with at the selling area and there was one person down in the woods coordinating the activities and all that. Definitely improvements to make, but overall it went well. We only had one other group that night. It really helped that one of our workers asked to leave early on sunday so we asked her to come saturday and then leave early sunday and she was a huge help because I couldn't be on register at all with the coordinating and there was a ton of people other than daycare folks, so having two people on register was great.
Sunday also went well. There were eight groups that came. by the time the last group came through, I was wiped. Nearly falling asleep on my chair. I asked if dad could cover the displays and I went up to the house, showered and went right to bed.
PoGo says I walked 22km between Fri, Sat and Sun. At least the weather was amazing if a little hot even.
I'm resting up as much as possible this week and I've been playing a lot of Timberborn, which is soothing and nice. Lots of laying in bed when I'm not working. Next weekend should be busy Saturday and not sunday so I'm looking forward to that. Almost done, just two more weekends to go and then I can sleep in my own bed for at least a whole week
