Late Breakfast

We were woken up by Jeanne who came knocking to tell us it was time to do the groceries.
Éloïse said we were not ready, so she just said it would have to be before noon.

Then, Aimé came knocking because he was looking for Éloïse. He needed her to help for the carriage ride with clients.

After much lack of communication, the clients left because they were waiting too long, and I left on a trail to the waterfalls with 2 clients (before breakfast, because we had nothing to eat at that point.)

I am getting very tired of everything, especially cleaning and cooking and thinking ahead for all suppers or else we end up eating kraft dinner.

Plus, I really don't like their attitude towards me, I often wonder if they see I have two legs, two arms and a head, because they seem to think I am incapable of doing anything alone. For example, I was back from a trail with 4 other people, the horses were all tied outside (which is not usually what they do, they usually just leave them to stand there and call them in when it is their turn to be unsaddled), and I was bringing them in one by one. Then, I hear Aimé say through the intercom to Jeanne and Éloïse that one of them come help me because he thought I would have trouble.

Also, before Florence left, she said she was tired of hearing them talk behind our backs, because then she had to come speak to us and pretend she hadn't heard anything. I wanted to know what they were saying, I already knew, they were saying that I wasn't really doing anything.

It's true, I mostly sit in my room.

I don't feel like painting tables, cleaning showers and toilets, or being followed by Aimé as I mow the lawn because he also thinks I am unable to do that. The last time I mowed the lawn, I checked the gas tank because I found it smelled strong. Turns out it was still open. Lovely. When I told him, he just asked if I had lost a lot of gas. I really felt appreciated.

As you can tell, I am having so much fun.
