Crazy Weather

Today it is supposed to be in the 60's, yesterday I woke up to snow and sleet then it warmed up to the 50's. Then on Monday and Tuesday we are supposed to get snow. Got to love it.

Day 6 with 4 left to go before a day off.

So one of my assistant managers is on vacation this week so I have worked everyday since last Friday. On that day off I did something I've wanted to do but never thought I would get to do, I went with my friend Beth to get a tattoo, her not me. It was cool. I looked through the pictures and there were some wild ones you can get. She go a dolphin on her shoulder on her back. So then I worked open to close (7:30am to 10:15pm) on Saturday and then 8:30am to 7:15pm on Sunday then Monday and Tuesday 1-10pm and then yesterday it was my truck day so I went in at 10am and worked til 10pm. Today I go in at 1 and work til 10pm and same thing tomorrow and then again open to close on Saturday and Sunday and my new District Manager won't let a manager have off on Monday so I'm taking Tuesday off. Wow. I'll be dead tired by then. I have a vacation coming up in two weeks. My first day of the vacation we are going to a 90th birthday party in Philly and then I'm invited to a St Pattys day party that night. Every year when I go to the St Pattys party I always have to work the next day and this year I don't so I can party hard but If John doesn't go with me then I won't because I'll have to drive home. I've been invited to spend the night but that won't happen.

Too much work not enough sleep

So Friday night I went to bed at 10pm because I had to work open to close on Saturday (15 hours) but when John came to bed he snored so bad all night I couldn't sleep and when he wasn't snoring Pickachin was. So Saturday night I went to bed and I shut the bedroom door because John was playing some game and he was talking really load. Then when he did come to bed he snored yet again. When my alarm went off this morning he stopped snoring. Ok I'm sleepy and I need to write some bills.

Undecided

Ok well I'm off today and I'm undecided on what I want to do. I want to go visit Maddy, but I have some much work to do around the house. I need to change the sheets on the bed, do the laundry, straighten up this living room, but If I go visit the baby maybe Annie can help me with my mistake I made on the baby sweater. I asked John if we can go, I have to get him off the computer. I need to plan out this trip. One hour there, visit for a while and then one hour back before dinner. If we leave at noon we could be home by 4 or 5 couldn't we? I would like to dye my hair. But I could do this on Friday. What to do What to do. Boy I need a vacation.

Changes again

On Friday we found out that the company was redistricting again so now I have a different District manager. He stopped by the store on Friday evening and he came knocking on my office door where I was reconciling a register with a pharmacy cashier. He said that the first impression of my store wasn't a good one and I said why whats the matter and he said the trash outside was overflowing. We empty the trash just about everyday but people empty there whole cars into them daily. So then he asked me about my monthly planner so I showed it to him and he said I was using the wrong one so I have alot of work to do. I worked all day today converting Valentines to Easter and working on my endcaps to get them like the planner. Tomorrow I'm in another store and Tuesday I'm off so I hope my girls do all they can to keep me from falling behind or I won't be able to take Friday off and I'm going to need it off because I won't have a day off the next week and also I have to work open to close on Saturday.

Weekend in Virginia

We go to West Point about 9:30 ish Friday night. We sat around and talked til 12:30 and we were back up at 7:30 am on Saturday morning. Daddy made cream chipped beef over corn bread (my favorite) and then I took the dogs to the Groomer, and stopped by Food Lion for some items for the party and then to Rite Aid for panty hose. Then we all went up to the church hall to set up for the party. We went back home to shower and change into our party clothes. Then off to the party. When I walked in and saw the cake that Charlie Little made for my parents it took my breath away. It was 5 layers with my parents original cake topper on the top. I saw people I hadn't seen in a long time. It was a wonderful time for all. We had a band that was very good and made the party, Momma and Daddy danced several times. Father Lee renewed there vows and gave them a Certificate of Marriage that was blessed by the Pope. As soon as John loads the pictures I will post some on here. After the party we went home and watched momma and daddy open all of the cards and some presents. Then me and John went to Shawn and Sandra's for some Wii play. This morning we got up and everyone went to church except for me and John because my parents phone was out and they were supposed to come and fix it between 9am and noon. When they got back from church daddy made a BIG breakfast. The weather was great this weekend today it was 70, we played outside.

awful story in news

I'm watching the news, waiting for John to get out of the shower so we can get on the road to Virginia and this story about a 6 year old boy that they found in a house while looking for a man that didn't report to court, the house had no heat just a space heater that the boy was sitting by and the house was filthy. They reported that the house didn't have heat and running water because the man they were looking for had cut out the copper pipes and sold it. I can't believe someone would do this. They found the man hiding in a closet. The boy is in foster care.

Busy Day

Well I went to work unloaded my truck got it all out then I went and had a pedicure and my nails done and went shopping for something to wear to the funeral because my assistant is going to work for me on Friday so that I can go to my friend Kathy's funeral. Then I went to pick up the dry cleaning for the party this weekend. Oh in case you didn't know me and my sisters and my brother is throwing my parents a 50th anniversary party. Now I must seperate ad signs for this weekend. I've been up since 3:30am I'm tired. I go into work tomorrow at 11am and work til 10pm. We've been eating out all week since John's mother is staying with Annie so tonight we went to Harry Hotdogs and I had Ham and Cabbage and John had a BLT and a Harry's hotdog. And I had a piece of Reese's peanut butter pie. Yummy.

Ideal Snow

Last night and today it snowed and snowed but it didn't stick to the roads. Looking out the window at work looked like I was looking into a huge snowglobe. It was beautiful to look at.
One of my friends died this week. I don't know what happened to her, she was feeling sick last Thursday and and I heard by Sunday she was in the hospital brain dead. Her funeral is Friday and I have to work. But I'm going to see if my assistant can leave early tomorrow when the truck is finished and come in for me Friday so I can go to the funeral.

Well worth all of the work

Today I got the results of my inventory and they were wonderful. I am so happy, all of that time and work paid off. My boss is happy and so am I. I got on the fit today and I didn't gain or loose any weight in two weeks. I'm glad I didn't gain but I wish I could of lost a little. I'm glad Pittsburgh won the Super Bowl. My parents party is this weekend, I can't wait. I'm going to see lots of people that I haven't seen in a while.
