Life is crazy.
12+ hour work days. 1 month old baby. Church. Family. Friends. Fur Babies.
I feel absolutely drained. It has been a hard work week. I have five huge events for work each year; two of those are in the next month. Insane amounts of planning go in to these events and hundreds of volunteers put countless hours of blood, sweat and tears in to each event. I LOVE working with these people. They are so passionate about our cause (I'm not sure I've really said what I do before, but I work for a non-profit responsible for raising money that funds cancer research) and I love sharing my passion for it with them.
As much as I love these people, and the cause, it is sometimes so hard to not be completely discouraged when every single day you deal with absolutely insane, demanding, rude, completely insensitive people.
And trust me, for every amazing volunteer and co-worker I have, I also have one that makes me want to pull my hair out, take up drinking and possibly move to a cave in the mountains and shut myself off from any chance of receiving 41 emails from one person in one afternoon, ON THE WEEKEND. Yes, this happened. No I did not answer any of them then, and still haven't weeks later. Don't be ridiculous and I might consider replying. Enough said.
So, even though it is not technically the weekend yet, I am so thankful this work week is almost over! I'm going to spend this
glorious Friday chatting up sponsors and presenting to the lovelies in Kiwanis, and this is going to be the most relaxing day of my week thus far.
Hope you pretties have an amazing Friday and enjoy the heck out of your weekend!!!
