It actually has almost been a full two weeks since I last blogged. What have I been doing? Well, I've been figuring out all of the finer details of Facebook. It is amazing how much I've learned about friends and family in just two weeks. I guess stuff I wanted to know...and other stuff I wish I could delete from my visual memories.
We also had visitors from Tennessee, worked quite a bit, had another interview (postponed) and now are fighting a cold...well, JMS has a full blown cold and the rest of us are deflecting minor symptoms.
In regard to the visitors from Tennessee...a huge thank you to Kim and her little troopers for making the trip...in the dark...and cold...and staying with us for a few days. JMS is still talking about Joshua and Baby Zoe. When it was time for them to leave, Kim's car battery was dead, so we had to tap into our old survival skills...these two ole girls jump started a car and headed to Auto zone. :) No one said we had to be creative.
As far as working...'tis the season...from now until Christmas I will be at the store every single weekend. This past Wednesday I worked until 2am getting the store filled for today's big sales. Hopefully it is going well...I don't go in until later today to clean up the mess.
I was scheduled to interview for promotion this past Tuesday, but it was postponed due to two funerals in our region that the Vice President wanted to attend. The interviews are now scheduled for Dec. 11. Sometimes I feel like this process will never end. I'm sure my loyal readers feel the same way...I've lost count of how many times I've interviewed now. And, all of them have been progressive. Can you imagine if I had to repeat rounds due to something not going my way? Yikes.
Lastly...JMS is sick. He's been home from "work"(a.k.a. the babysitters) all week. He calls it work because he gets to "pick toys." Hopefully he can get through this without a trip to the doctor's office.

Poor little guy! Being sick is no fun at all. I wish you the best of luck these next 4 weeks until Xmas is over! Retail at Christmas time is no fun. I must say I was one of the 5am people at our local Target and I got what I wanted (except for the $10 Scene It game they advertised-did they have like 2???). The lines were INSANE...wrapped around the inside of almost the whole store, but it was worth it. I love Black Friday now that I don't work in the retail field any longer. I feel for you Rosemarie! Have you seen "New Moon"????
