Well, it's been quite a day. Work was stressful. I work at my parents' restaurant and we only have one register (and I am the cashier) and it is a touch screen that relies on internet for accepting credit card payments. Aaaannnnd our internet went down in the middle of dinner rush and we had to keep turning people away because we could ONLY accept cash payments for the rest of the night. It was so frustrating.
Not to mention we had about 8 ten-packs of tacos in a row. So the front line (what we call the area where we make the food. only 2 people Work up there making the food at any given time and normally that is fine) got SO behind because we had a bunch of huge orders in a row. So customers were getting mad that their orders were taking so long. And we had to keep explaining to them that someone ahead of them had ordered 80 tacos without calling ahead and that's why the line was so backed up. Most seemed to understand after we told them that but there were a few that were really rude
My sister was also stressing me out tonight because, well she is one of those people that thinks she knows everything- and she is always right. I was talking to her about the trailer and I told her that we planned on buying a new mattress for the bed in there since the "bed" in there is nothing more than a 2 inch thick piece of foam. The bed frame fits a queen sized bed and my current mattress is only a full. I was telling her how I found some nice 8-12inch thick memory foam matresses made for travel trailers/RVs online for $200-$300 prices (which, in my opinion, is definitely not that bad for a queen matress). And she got all puffy and said that I should just use my current full size mattress (which has a huge "sink hole" in the middle of it because I sleep in the same spot every night) to save money. I really just wanted to say "Um excuse me, I am going to be living there, not you. I didn't tell you how to buy furniture for your apartment you just moved into."
I might not be rich, but I can afford to spend two-hundred something dollars on a nice mattress thank you very much.
And then I told her we might stain or paint the cabinets to be a little darker and she was like "Oh but that will be so messy and it might not look very good. I don't think that you should do that."
I went to art school and have painted interior walls before. I sure as heck know how to use painter's tape and plastic tarps for the floor lol. I have pretty much mastered the art of using painter's tape. Ugh it makes me mad that she thinks she's right all the time This is going to be where I live not her so she doesn't get a say about what changes I make to the inside.
I am glad I have the weekend off. I am planning to go camping (sorta) with some friends and relax with a few mixed drinks I found this recipe for frozen wine smoothies and it looks reeeeallly good so we are going to try to make those.
