Anxious For Weekend

Our second day of the work week was basically uneventful yesterday. It was hot inside the warehouse and everything they try to do to make it cooler seems to fall short. Of course, with no air conditioning and just huge fans everywhere, it just moves the hot air around. It is always a joy for us to come home and jump in the shower.

We're getting very anxious for the weekend. Just thinking about the trip helps get us over the hump at work. We are looking at our normal four day week this week and plan to rest during the remaining part of Thursday after we get up around noon. That will allow us to have a normal night's sleep for a fresh, early start for Friday so that we can visit the Louisville Slugger Museum and Factory before heading across the river into Indiana and the hotel. Checkout time at the hotel is 11 AM so we may plan something else in the Louisville area while we are there. There's lots to see and do, so we'll do more research and try to find something before heading home on Saturday night. We then will have the full day Sunday to rest up for work beginning at 5 PM that night.

With the difference in weather and in the general working environment compared to the peak season last year, we will skip working here in summers in the future. Actually, we will probably call this our last year working at Amazon.com. The money is good, but we plan on having more free time in the future, beginning early next year. That is, if everything goes according to our plan. We will be heading west in early 2012 unless something really attractive comes up in the meantime. Anyway, that wraps it up for now...
