Sorry, total whine/vent here. We are in the heart of the non-stop season. Last day off was 8 weeks ago, next one is 6 weeks away. Guests this past weekend incredibly needy...we feel like we already do a lot of spoon feeding when it comes to info on the area/things to do, but people really needed to be taken by the hand, every time one of us turned around someone was there with a question on something we felt like we'd already covered twice for them.
We have two back up plans that we can usually call on for relief...an afternoon away and sometimes up to a week depending on scheduling. Option #1 is currently 3 days past her due date with her first baby (POOR thing, she is miserable, at least we are not dealing with that!), and Option #2 has family visiting until the end of August and is not available.
Every day for the past week and the forseeable future is 95+ degrees, with no rain in sight, so watering becomes a 2 hour a day job so as not to lose all the hard work we put into the gardens. And of course every time I"m out there someone's got SOMETHING THEY NEED so I have to stop, help, then go back...just ugh.
Now sitting here waiting for the last 2 of 3 check-ins...can they just get here already???
NOT our finest moment...
