Rain or Shine….But what about sickness? at The Copeland Ramblings

As you all know we are now night owls… so when it comes to having a part time job during the day, it doesn’t work so well… I was supposed to go do the mail today in Shelburne…which I did. I was also supposed to do it the end of last week… which I didn’t do! I have now been sick for just under 2 weeks. I tried to get some sleep last night, but my night owl clock wouldn’t allow it. So I got about 3 hours of sleep before I headed off to deliver the mail. Needless to say, I was sick. I thought for sure I would be better by now, so I hadn’t found a replacement for today. When I walked up to the lady I was helping, she looked like she had seen a ghost… which she had… ME! I am so pale and sunken in from sickness… and insomnia! Well, she asked me about 100 times if I was ok to deliver the mail with her… I kept putting a smile on my face and saying yes! But she started to worry when I kept pausing when I opened the mail box to put the mail in… and I was quiet as a mouse… (very uncommon). So about 3 hours in she sent me home… I guess I wasn’t helping her enough… =) She found someone else to help her with the last 2 hours… Thank God! I was so worried I was going to puke all over the mail. Do you know how much trouble I would get into if I did that???? Yikes. Oh well, I am home now and trying to get better. We found a replacement for tomorrow and Wednesday. So Lord willing I will be back at it by Thursday! Ok I am sure that was boring… talk to you later when I actually have something exciting to report! =) ~Deb
