Better and Ready for Home

There isn’t a lot going on tonight on site. The main purpose of having a night person is to keep an eye on the Mine’s fill placement. My night usually consists of driving around to amuse myself and then coming back to the site office to work on paperwork. Only, I’ve been fighting with day shift on the paperwork portion. They don’t have enough work for two people, which of coarse I find amusing. I had too much work on my hands when my last project started, only to find that it took me 2 months of stomping my feet before I got the personnel I wanted and then to find out that we’re actually, probably, overstaffed for this project.

Well, the Mine isn’t placing fill tonight, but are excavating overburden material… where there is no purpose for me to be around. But, since I’m salary, I’m out here attempting to look like I’m doing something. I’m happy I grabbed samples yesterday.

My night will end with processing samples and trying to figure out why the sink isn’t draining. And people don’t understand why I’m calling this particular job a vacation.

I do feel better. I no longer have any pain when I swallow or yawn. It’s nice not to wince or make a grimacing face.

I’m ready to go home though. I miss my kitties.
