Down the Mountain for a Day
October 10, 2006 by comfortableredsweatpants
It was the long weekend from hell and am glad to be off the mountain even for a day. My brain is totally fried and my body is just plain tired. I have an audit coming up which at the moment I couldn’t care about because am just plain drained out of my mind. Yes…such is the horror that I have put myself into from taking this job. I am just bitterly tired hence I have nothing but spite. Mind you, working at the Poppy is not entirely bad. I love interacting with most of our guests as they come from all over the world. I love how these people would come here and have a meal with us just to view Lake Louise. I enjoy seeing them marvel at the mountains and just be mesmerized by it.
Speaking of mesmerized, I have yet to be captured by Lake Louise’s breathtaking mountains. I don’t know why, but I guess since I work too much, I just couldn’t enjoy what my guests do. I have yet to take a moment and breathe in the spectacular view that I fortunately get to see everyday. Maybe it’s the City girl in me that makes me get jaded with all this scenery. To me, they’re just any other mountain or lake. I have to say, that’s just sad as Lake Louise is indeed marvelous, and yet with my busy work schedule and all it’s accompanying drama, I miss it all together. Anyways, am just ranting and I do hope to write something a tad more lighter and happier. Until I can get this work stress out of my system, am just going to be hoping for that day where I can actually find myself not wanting to leave the mountains and enjoy what it has to offer to me.
