Getting forgetful

I work as a supervisor at our local Safeway. I forgot I had swopped shifts today and I got up at 6 this morning, left at 7 to walk the mile to work. It was cold, dark and drizzling. Not very nice. When I arrived to open up my friend was already there and then the penny dropped. I had swopped shifts and I did not start for another 2 hours! Luckily my husband came to get me and I am back home for a while. Then out again at 9. Thats if I dont drop off to sleep. Its going to be a long day. Shirley

Well Shirley, I'm very dissapointed that you didn't stay to help your poor friend out, or at least sit in the canteen drinking tea for 2 hours before your shift started and as for calling your poor husband out to collect you, you should have gladly given Safeway 2 of your precious hours, think of all the wonderful things Safeway gives to you Ha Ha. Never mind Shirl, ain't growing old wonderful. Love Belle.

April When I finish my tea in a few minutes I am off out again. Hope its warmed up a bit. I also put on half a pound when I got weighed at WW last night and this week I tried really hard. I have heard those strories about leaving babies outside stores and going home. I used to leave my daughter outside the shop in her pram while I did my shopping and not have to worry. I think we would be locked up now if we did that. Well off I go again. Shirley

Luckily the little one was still there when I got back or I think I just might have lost a mate
