I awoke this morning with a little less moaning and groaning. The thought of it being Friday was like an expresso shot of energy.

Working retail for three years, weekend is usually the start of my work week. I’m used to being off Wednesday and Thursday and waking up Friday to start my work week.

It’s been three months since I’ve left retail and I still have moments of denial.  I wake up with a start some Saturdays like oh shit! Imma be late!

It’s been a grueling work week. I’m supposed to get off at 3pm. Everyday this week the earliest I’ve got home is 6pm.  And I’ve been taking work home with me.

With staff out, incidents and events left and right, it’s been an overwhelming week.

So the thought of it being Friday put a smile on my face. For once, I wasn’t stuck in the retail mind set. After today, I have the weekend off.

So,  with a little less kicking and grumbling,  I went about my morning routine. I checked the weather and it said a high of 60 today! I planned to leave the bulkly jacket home and just put on a favorite hoody and walk off into the sunset.

Imagine my surprise when I opened my front door and saw this:

It’s misty and foggy as hell. These pictures don’t capture the full effect.  So,  I had to go back inside for a jacket.
My grumpy walk to the train station.
