Playing God a Little Bit

It's a crime to wake up this early on a Saturday.

But alas, I'm opening the store today, and I have to be there in 25 minutes. I also get to spend the day with a woman who is very selfish and 8 months pregnant. There are no other staff who can help me today.

What a week!

In addition to fielding response from Monday's tragedy, we didn't get a single order in until Thursday and Friday, when we got all of them - and Thursday and Friday are our busiest days, which is why we ask for the orders to be delivered Monday and Tuesday. So last night I did nearly three thousand dollars worth of sales AND processed three huge orders. Yippee.

AND

There was this dog, a Coton de Tuleres (basically looks like a cotton ball), that I had to work hard to convince the owner that it needed grooming for the summer. And I finally convince him and then the dratted dog has an anxiety attack on the grooming table, asphyxiates itself, and goes into cardiac arrest. Amanda and Darby performed CPR and brought her back, but it was an interesting start to a very long day.

Today will be even longer, but at least I get tomorrow off.
