    Nice biking home and back in the snow. Got to follow my tracks on the way back. :smile:

    It's been in the 60sF the last few days and I thought about taking my kayak out, but I didn't enjoy the idea of how cold my butt might get!

    So the shenanigans continue. Been a busy first week of 2019. How is everyone this chilly evening?

    Almost doesn't seem worth going home. Head to training and sleep in your car. :smile:

    That would be me if it weren't for extreme food prepping. SO hard to stay on track on night shift. I'm ready to go home. Feel like I'm getting a cold.

    So, it looks like they haven't found anyone to fill my patrol position yet. The boss is supposed to "swing by and chat" with me and the supervisor of my new post about my schedule. In other words, it's looking like they're going to need me in both places for a while. I don't know how many hours I'll be getting exactly, but it's looking like I'll clock 60+ this week.

    Jennifer, you're starting to sound like me. Hope you don't get too burned out.

    The temps warmed up to 40 degrees. The snow turned into major slush. That is more difficult than snow to bike through. Had to drive to work tonight and wait for more of it to melt.

    Do you get OT pay? I hope so

    No biking this weekend. Fog has visibility down to 1/4 mile. Inversion has set in. No relief predicted until Thursday.

    Thankfully, yes! I should be looking at an extra $400 for the pay period! Which will go directly to moving expenses, since I'm looking to move very soon, lol.

    Went in on a cat that radiographs looked like a piece of cloth was in them. Turned out it was a bunch of small cuts that the barium adhered to. Hate when I go in and I didn't need but I guess that's better than not going in and I should have.

    @jennifer_417 Woohoo!!!!!
    @sufferlandrian Definitely better safe than sorry

    I'm covering night shift for the next week. By the end of February, I'll be back on permanent night shift, by my request. Day shift sucks *kitten*. That's all there is to it lol

    @ Bethanie - It will be nice to have you back on nights. In the words of Black Bart off Blazing Saddles, "To tell the truth, it's getting pretty dull around here." :smile:
