I feel very sore this morning, it's been a rough week.  Work has really picked up, our busy season has begun.  I worked late wednesday night, got called in 3 hours early thursday morning.  I have been sending work back at the end of my shift every night.  Next week I will be on call, so all the leftover work will be mine, should get a lot of overtime.     I sent in a vacation request for a 5 day weekend, I hope it will be approved.  I still have a lot of work to do on the house, I have been too tired to do anything in the evenings lately.     When I got home last night, after working a long day, I saw a truck in my driveway.  I assumed it probably belonged to my wife(?)'s ex-boyfriend, who she has been talking with a lot.  I figured it was no big deal, her business, not mine.  But when I got in the house, she wanted me to meet him.  I was in no mood to meet anyone, but I went down to say hi, they were hanging out at my bar, that I built with my own two hands.  He seems like a nice guy, but I did not want to listen to them talk about the good old days, before she made the mistake of marrying me, so I went upstairs, made some frozen pizzas, and watched tv with the kids.  I ate too much, but I was very hungry, haven't been eating much this week.     Today is payday, and a fairly good one.  I'm putting some money aside, so my daughters will have spending cash when they hit Chicago next month.   Maybe with my next big check, I will be able to buy some new work boots.  I hope so, I really need new boots.
