Yesterday's work

Yesterday worked for marge and her mothers day family dinner. I arrived around 3:45 to check in with the other caregiver. My shift really started at 4 going from 4-9. Her daughters brought pizza and salad. I set the table outside and tosses the three salads and put everything out on the breakfast table. We used paper plates and cups with silverware and glasses for the wine drinkers. One of the siblings also brought a strawberry cake which we had for dessert and which I served. After I finished eating, (I ate with the family at the table), I washed the silverware and the salad bowls, ran the dishwasher and took the garbage out. I also put the leftover pizza into three packages covered with tinfoil for the siblings to take home. I put the extra salad into three baggies for them to take home too. They didn't end up taking everything so I took home two sets of leftovers. I will eat the salad and freeze the pizza. The sisters and their families left around 8 and then I talked grandma into going to bed. She was exhausted from a great mothers day. I turned down her bed and drew her drapes in her bedroom. Also I put her evening meds in the bathroom for her to take. By 8:30 I settled down to talk with uncle Jeff about assorted topics and the rich dad poor dad seminar that he was going to. I am going to come over a little later in the evening next Sunday so I can hear how it went. In closing I should add that we were 9 people for dinner, including me. I get $17 and hour for this job and I charge an extra $55 for cleaning up and serving. Not bad money for a pleasant evening.
