Work week from hell

This was a week from hell. Work was just a big blur. We have two new people in our department at work. I was training one and another co-worker was training the other. This week my co-worker was pulled from training and now I have to train both. So thursday and friday I had to train all day and not be able to work. It is draining when you have to teach someone how to work our system and actually teach them in a way that they can understand. I am a detailed person so I explain things extensively. Which is a good things I guess. It just takes longer to explain but at the same time they can understand it from the beginning. To know it and do it yourself at your own pace is so much easier and less time consuming. My brain is just drained.
My new trainee is slow, not in a bad way but I think that once she gets the whole picture she will get a handle on things.

Well, it is that much closer to Christmas and I haven't really started shopping. I want to but at the same time I have no idea what to get for people. I always want to get the perfect gift for people. Not just some gift I get them b/c I have no idea what to get them. Why bother then? Better off just getting them a card saying Merry Christmas. I don't like getting gifts from people that think they have to give me one and it is something that doesn't interest me.

Anyway, it is getting late and I am exhausted.
