Okay to beging w/ Samantha King is still a pain in our Ass at work. Some of the stupid shit is just unbelievable. I mean... if you don't look but barely 20, bring up three cases of beer, and don't have a driver's license, or any photo I. D. ; then don't think I'm going to allow you to buy the shit. And another thing.. don't send your buddies in right after you pointing at what I've set out of your reach and tell me that they are going to pay for it. It Does Not Work That Way...
On another front, a favorite customer of mine is dying of cancer.. the doctors have last given him just a few months. Every time I see him I want to cry for him, but he holds his head high and Lives his life. I find him to be amazing in his strength of character.
Well, I finally got my digital service and have been trying not to burn up the phone lines. I did call and find my favorite cousin J. Now, I have to admit that he and I have not seen each other in many many many years.. in fact we were about 12 the last time we saw each other and yeah that addes up to many many years. We talked and caught up w/ each other and as much as we could in an hour's time, and I look forward to talking to him. And may I also say, Praise Be for Computers. Needless to say, I will be able to keep up alot easier w/ him via his MP now. As long as he does't lock me out..lol. I find that although I've grown up, gained weight, and stopped wearing makeup; he grew up, toned up, and is a damn good looking guy. Well J if you happen to read this.. Love Ya.
In another aspect of my life.. I found out that an ole' school chum is a sexual preditor... worse yet he's a teacher at our old school.
Travis Daniels, 35, of ****** pleaded guilty in federal District Court in @#&^$%$$^$ Thursday to two counts of knowingly receiving child pornography on his computer, authorities said.
Advertisement He is out on bond with electronic monitoring until he is sentenced, according to Assistant U. S. Attorney Deborah Groom of *****.The judge gets a pre-sentencing report from the federal probation office and typically sentences a defendant five to six weeks after the plea. Groom said Daniels faces a sentence of 5 to 20 years, a fine of up to $250,000 or both.She said the charges follow an April 11 search of Daniels' home.Daniels pleaded guilty to two counts of receiving one or more pictures of minor girls engaging in sexually explicit conduct in late 2006 and early 2007.
he solicited two underagegirls in IA to send him email video's of themselvesmasterbating to his school email b/c he didn't wanthis wife to find them on his home email. It isanticipated that he will receive in the neighborhoodof 12 years (of which he can serve approximately 70%of the time). The Feds kinda frown on teacherssoliciting porn on school computers. That's theupdate as of Friday from my pals at the Fed Pros Ofc.
Now, he's going to find out the hard way what it costs to be a Pervert
I know that my hometown will never forget/ forgive him for this. I onlly hope that his children are not paying for the sins of thier father.
Other than all this there isn't too much else to tell. I'll be back more often to keep you updated on my boring life.

Half a Year gone by
Ok, so my manager went on Vaca last week and left the shop ( basically ) to the Assistant Manger and the Second Assistant Manager ( that's be me ). And I had last weekend to look out for the store, and wouldn't you know it.. Equipment Failure BIG TIME. So, Shutting down half our business to take care of it. Phone calls on top of phone calls... checking breakers, switches, computers, and everything else we can think of I had to call Maintainance to finally come out. Would you believe it was just some burned out wires that needed to be replaced. nearly half my shift w/ a major money maker down... ouch. And to go with all that, we had a power surge and my computers took nearly 20 minutes to reboot.. so No Registers Working. OMG !! Then to top it off, I get home relax refresh and check my emails.. only to find one from my manager.. "Do You Miss Me Yet ?".. I bout Fell Out.
On the Stalker front... he's still around but I do my damnest to send him to a different cashier and to ignore him .. I mean we are busy and I don't have the time / patience for his stares and stammers. He comes in not as often, but I was in hopes he'd have found himself another place perhaps even another face. But he's not dangerous and knows that I AM Very Happily Married and will remains so regardless his Hexes. Besides if anything were to happen w/ my marriage I seriously doubt that I would "Date" anyone for years.
Well It's raining again I am really tired of rain. I do wish it would go somewhere else... like Virgina. It's rained so often lately that I am water logged, not just the land .. but me personally. Oh, my tomatoes love it.. and I love my tomatoes. So, since I don't seem to have an IN with Mother Nature I'll deal w/ it. However much I miss the sunshine, I don't miss the heat.
Yeah, of course, I have my usual complaint about Samantha King. I saw her the other day, buying beer as usual, and would you believe it.. She's Pregnant. I mean come on. She does not have custody of any of her kids, her husband ( a drunk in his own right ) beats her, the state takes away her kids, and still she gets pregnant to give the state and us tax payers another mouth to take care of. And to top that off... She drinks .. drinks a shit load. So much so that the woman, who does not speak very much.........., knows just how much money to bring to pay for her booze, to the penny. I wish there were something I could do, but I happen to know that others have tried, and failed. I wish there were someway the state could make the Hospital ( has to give birth somewhere ) perform and Tubal Ligation on her. I mean, since I have worked at the store she has been pregnant 3 times. Three Times people, and she had a small child when I started, and has custody of none of them. I can only hope for the best for them and those to come. Oh, I know it sounds brutal, but I am of the mind that some people should have to prove that they will be good and responcible parents.
Ok, enough of my "Soap Box". ON to Independence Day, which my town celebrated yesterday for everyone.
I hope that comes through okay for you to see. It's hard to believe that so much time has already gone by.. Seems as I get older, Time goes by so much faster. Perhaps it is that I just feel I am missing so much now, and am looking around that much more, making time go by faster for me.
You have a wonderful Independce Day, and I hope You have someone to celebrate with so understands all the Implications of that day, for our Country, our Lives, and our Futures.

Yellow Ice
Yep,
You got it .. Yellow Ice.. well actually it's suppose to be hielo . It's Spanish for the word Ice and when spoken sounds exactly like the word "Yellow". I hear it spoke every day and every time I hear it I think of someone peeing in the snow..lol. I know I know I shouldn't make fun of another language, but it still tickles my funny bone.
I haven't seen much of Samantha King lately but then again I haven't been on the register much for her to annoy me and she does annoy me and the others. Perhaps a few days w/o her will brighten my outlook.
Oh, I saw my stalker the other day, I 'd forgotten about it. I joked to my boss " OH Look My Stalker.. " and I figured it had been so long since I'd seen him that he'd given up.. but still I didn't come out from behind my counter. Unfortunately I'm still in his radar.. My Co Worker was to the point and on my behalf told him "NO". So, since then I've avoided helping him while still staying behind the counter or out of his sight...
Another guy ( in his 20s .. so too young to take seriously ) comes in and I told him one night I was ready to run away.... he told me " I don't have much money, but I figure we could make it out of this little town. I"ll be waiting for you after you get off of work. " Oh, no.. don't get me wrong.. the kid knows me well enough not to have taken me seriously. He wasn't waiting on my when I left work. Oddly enough, he is what an ex co -worker called "My Future Ex Husband" and that idea of him just stuck.. lol.
As for my "Boy friend" I haven't seen him in a while.. In case I haven't mentioned him before.. he is Blond, Blue Eyed, Well Spoken, and has never forgotten my name since I told him a year ago. I was stocking bags of ice into the merchandiser when he walked away from his dad to ask me.. " What is Your Name ?".
Heehee, he's 4 yrs old. He always makes a point to say hi to me. He's soo sweet, and anytime his dad comes in w/o him I always try to ask about how he's doing. The last time I saw his dad, I was told that I was turned down in lou of a swimming pool. LOL. I'm sure I'll see him again.
I have a lot of people that I enjoy seeing. A few I see every so very often. Perhaps I'll tell you more. Until then I'd better get off of here and get my but into gear so that I can get ready for work.

No Longer the Party Queen
Well, I get a weekend off .. the first in months and D and I decide to go see a friend and meet her at the bar she works at part time.. they have a band playing too. So, we leave the house at nearly 9 pm and it some 20 minutes later when we get there.. we don't know anyone, and I don't see my friend. She isn't working that night but already told me that she made plans to be there for the band w/ another friend. So, we order up something to drink while we wait a while. And finish those drinks. Finally I catch a break and ask the girl tending bar about J; only to find out she hadn't shown at all. I am so disappointed.
So, we drive back to our town.. perhaps one of our joints .. another beer.. people we recognize; only they have a band too.. and a cover charge. Well, instead we are back home again.. an early night for sure. LOL.. It's definite.. I am no longer a party animal. I have truly outgrown the beer drinking, pool shooting, gossip driven Diva of my youth. Oh well, time for something else now..lol.
OH, by the way.. I have an update on my ex co-worker and her incarceration. After being hauled in for copping an attitude w/ the deputy ( YOu won't arrest me.. none of you would.. and so on ) and her horrid drive to jail ( pull over I"m going to be sick ). She got bailed out by Daddy Dearest, then told him that the deputy offered to let her go if she did some sexual favors for the deputy.
Now, let me reinterate my Ex Co Worker ( let call her A ). A told everyone that she was moving to TOWN to go to college and become a Child Psychologist... even though she doesn't like children. Oh, she moved.. she packed up her car, her two year old and her Boy Toy boyfriend ( about 4 years younger than her ) and moved in w/ another girl in TOWN.. until she had to move. Then after she gets back .. I'm pregnant.. No I'm NOT pregnant.. So and So is a Lier... No, I'm pregnant.. see the ultrasound. She had many customer convinced that she was going to have to have surgery on her knees, and that was a lie; that she was joining the army, and that was a lie..
So , tell me.... How am I suppose to believe her when she says the Deputy asked for Sexual favors ... ESPECIALLY when there is Recorders recording all that was said IN THE CAR. What surprizes me the most is the fact that her father actually believes her.. when he knows the stupid shit she pulls all the time, and is going to TRY to sue the county... LOL what a joke. Dumb Ass
So, that's the latest news on that front.. Until later.

Offense # 3269
Seriously, Samantha King has got issues. She seems to be under the illusion that I am Incompetent, and cannot do a simple thing. She comes up to the counter w/ Lotto cards, only she will not allow me to process them until after I do the "First" order, then I do the Lotto Transaction, then Cigarettes.. and by this time there are 4 other people waiting on her to finish so that they can do their ONE ... complete order.
Oh, I forgot to tell you about my EX co-worker ( and I use the word loosely ) .. Apparently she got pulled over by a local deputy ( I do like him ), and when she could not produce Identification she got mouthy w/ him. So, he took her in and let her spend the night in jail.. I loved it.. Laughed my Ass off over that. She's had it coming for some time now.. all her big talk.. and talk is all she is.
Then last night, to top it all off I got stuck working w/ E-ORE. I'm serious, slow, lazy, but not cute and adorable. I just cannot understand people who have such suckie work ethics. I had to bully her to get her to do her job Away from the register. I had berate her into understanding that she just cannot walk away when ever she felt like it.. She turned me into the BITCH from Work. I do not like having to baby sit, and she pushed me to the limits w/ her lazy ass stupidity. However, my Boss gets to work w/ her tomorrow... heehee. I hope she ( E-ORE ) pulls her stupid shit w/ Boss. She will be written up for it and eventually be moved on out.
This after noon I was suppose to meet up w/ a friend and dig up some of the bulbs I have.. only the bottom fell out and we got flooded w/ rain.. It has been raining continuously for over an hour now, the winds have taken down the boat cover, and hopefully has not destroyed my garden. I am glad to not have to water then today..lol. I actually slept in thinking I was going to have to remember to do so this evening. I'm sure the big garden is loving it, not to mention the watermelon patch .
Well, now that I've listed Samantha Kings offense of the day, and laughed over an old co-worker's vanity , and bitched about a new co-worker's stupidity; I think I'll finish working on our Supper ( roast, home grown corn on the cob, and baked potato and sweet potato ) and enjoy the rest of my day off.
Until next time..

"Samantha King"
We finally have a name for our advisary at work.... Samantha King. Now, this is not the real name, but one we have picked for all our troubles.
She is the one that is upsetting the whole community and I soon hope to tell you all about her. When she comes in :
1 ) we can barely understand her .. mostly because she mumbles and yet expects us to understand her every wants and needs ;
2) has created her own language and speaks it all the time and expects us to conform to HER even though we don't live in her house or under her rules;
3) has her own place yet stays everywhere else expecting others to feed and clothe her and give her money and pay all her bills ; and
4) her children.. about 6 of them I believe. They are unruly, messy, LOUD, and most generally running wild doing what every they want and making a mess doing it.
Now, Samantha King is the type of parent that allows this wild behavior, ignoring our frowns ( cause speaking to HER does no good ). Samantha King is the customer who does NOT know how to work a Gas Pump yet gets pissed off when we "Don't" turn it on for her ( even though she has already paid for it ). Samantha King is the customer who gets totally SHIT FACED Saturday night, yet is first in church to confess all the sins only to be first to get the beer Sunday afternoon ( can't buy alcohol before 12:00 pm on Sundays ).
Believe me, I'll have more stories to tell about Samantha King and her Language, Kids, and Customer Skills in the future, I just wanted to give you a glimpse of her today.
Other than HER, everything is going well. Went to town yesterday and did some pictures for a friend at Walgreen's, shopping, shopping, shopping .. I was sooo Tired when K and I got home. She got a new shirt that says " Lock Up Paris " heehee, and it's pink. She wears it proudly. I got a couple new shirts, a pair of lounge pants, some support hose ( for my ankles since I had Deep Vein Thrombosis ) and a new bra .. now They enter a room before I do . Every once in a while I don't mind doing this but next time I'm going to do it when I have the next day off lol. I could have slept till noon just because I've been so tired. No, I'm fine, just feeling a bit nappy ( could nap a couple times a day if I allowed lol ) , but know if I did I'd only make myself into a night owl again. I always could sleep during the day time more than at night.

I know I know ... I've been Ignoring You
But seriously, I really haven't .. I just haven't had the time for you.. so it's Neglect not Ignoring that I've been doing.
Last weekend was a busy weekend.. Memorial weekend.. Lots of Tourist, Sunshine, and work.. yep work. I worked the entire weekend. That's okay, I've worked a lot of those weekends. My only gripe is that once a person become a "tourist" they seem to be under the misconception that the world revolves around their wants and needs.. Well , I'd hate to be the one to burst your bubble.. No I'm Not... but it don't. Folks, if you are traveling... anywhere.. at any time, please PLEASE remember to say Thank You, Please, Have a Nice Day, and if all else fails at least Smile pleasantly. I gotta tell you, the only ones who remembered to say those things are the ones who live around here and say it all the time.
Okay, enough Bitching. So, I had an alright birthday... sucks that it is during a Holiday weekend... Got some cards, some "Happy Birthdays" acknowledgements, and even a gift. Yeah, I know it doesn't seem like much, but then again my I've never made a big deal out of that day anyhow. Usually by then I'm still trying to recoup from the Kid's birthday bash she puts on each year. The card I got from my DH made me cry.. what he wrote was beautiful to me and better than any present he could have gotten. I got my Birthday wish and sat out on my porch and read, relaxed, watched the birds, and just enjoyed my morning.. that is until I had to get ready for work. I also got an e-card from my CM, and another card from my Mom. She has never missed a Birthday. And I won't forget to add all my friends and loved ones at the DoD , they are the best group of people.
Sis, I gotta say that you did a great thing when you brought it back for us.. all of us. I know you could have just saved some time and more if you had just let it go, but we really do appreciate you and David and the energy Ya'll put into it.
The Kid, I got her a summer "Job" w/ her Grandpa cleaning and organizing ... something to keep her on a good sleep schedule and out of the house away from the puter and video games. Plus she gets to earn a few dollars, and in the end can help buy her new school clothes.. I know it sounds horrible making her buy school clothes, but really and truly the Kid is a Clothes Horse. She loves'em. And this way, if she earns them herself; perhaps she'll take better care of them. Plus, she has the opportunity to work w/ the Coordinator of the Relay for Life doing good things during her summer.
I hope she jumps on it, I know that she had fun w/ it last year. Her God Mother is part of it and drug her along to it, but she had a blast and didn't want to leave when I went to get her after I got off of work then. This time, I think I'll just let her stay with "B" the whole night lol. I would go too, except I am scheduled to work ( as usual ) early Saturday morning, but may go out and visit when I get off of work on Friday afternoon.
This is something our whole County gets into.. helping to raise money for .. and helps in general.
Any how, that is my life up to this point.. other than gripes, bitches, and laughs I've forgotten.. I'll try to stop Neglecting you and get back here more often than once a couple of weeks. Perhaps once a week. The Goddess knows my life is a bit on the boring side. Perhaps I'll just say "Thanks" for that and leave you now and go live it.

Folks, if you are traveling... anywhere.. at any time, please PLEASE remember to say Thank You, Please, Have a Nice Day, and if all else fails at least Smile pleasantly. I gotta tell you, the only ones who remembered to say those things are the ones who live around here and say it all the time.
Okay, enough Bitching. So, I had an alright birthday... sucks that it is during a Holiday weekend... Got some cards, some "Happy Birthdays" acknowledgements, and even a gift. Yeah, I know it doesn't seem like much, but then again my I've never made a big deal out of that day anyhow. Usually by then I'm still trying to recoup from the Kid's birthday bash she puts on each year. The card I got from my DH made me cry.. what he wrote was beautiful to me and better than any present he could have gotten. I got my Birthday wish and sat out on my porch and read, relaxed, watched the birds, and just enjoyed my morning.. that is until I had to get ready for work. I also got an e-card from my CM, and another card from my Mom. She has never missed a Birthday. And I won't forget to add all my friends and loved ones at the DoD , they are the best group of people.
Sis, I gotta say that you did a great thing when you brought it back for us.. all of us. I know you could have just saved some time and more if you had just let it go, but we really do appreciate you and David and the energy Ya'll put into it.
The Kid, I got her a summer "Job" w/ her Grandpa cleaning and organizing ... something to keep her on a good sleep schedule and out of the house away from the puter and video games. Plus she gets to earn a few dollars, and in the end can help buy her new school clothes.. I know it sounds horrible making her buy school clothes, but really and truly the Kid is a Clothes Horse. She loves'em. And this way, if she earns them herself; perhaps she'll take better care of them. Plus, she has the opportunity to work w/ the Coordinator of the Relay for Life doing good things during her summer.
I hope she jumps on it, I know that she had fun w/ it last year. Her God Mother is part of it and drug her along to it, but she had a blast and didn't want to leave when I went to get her after I got off of work then. This time, I think I'll just let her stay with "B" the whole night lol. I would go too, except I am scheduled to work ( as usual ) early Saturday morning, but may go out and visit when I get off of work on Friday afternoon.
This is something our whole County gets into.. helping to raise money for .. and helps in general.
Any how, that is my life up to this point.. other than gripes, bitches, and laughs I've forgotten.. I'll try to stop Neglecting you and get back here more often than once a couple of weeks. Perhaps once a week. The Goddess knows my life is a bit on the boring side. Perhaps I'll just say "Thanks" for that and leave you now and go live it.

Devil Beat his Wife
Wish you could have been there w/ me yesterday.. was sitting on my porch watching the storm roll through, the rain beating the streets, water washing away the woes, wind styling my hair.. all the while.. I wished you were there to share it with me. There was very little lightening, but a whole lot of Thunder... BOOM !! BOOM BOOM !!! Rumble, Grumble, and moan. It was beautiful and amazing to see, and in the end the Devil was beating his wife.. Yep, it was bright and clear and still it came. A beautiful ending to a wondrous storm. I smiled, thinking of you my friend... and wished again I could have shared it with you... Perhaps another time. I found out that all the lightening was inside of town and even caused many places to loose electricity. But not here, not at the "show" .
K's day was a good one, the night before I had a total of 4 daughters. Not as large as the previous years seven; but still a good night. She had 3 or 4 more show up for lunch and cake.. and gifts. Unfortunately I had to go to work, but at least I was there for 95% of it. Lots of pictures of the girls, tons of laughter, and good memories.
Mother's day was quiet.. we went and had lunch.. us, MIL, BIL, and their families. I got a pillow K had made in Home Ec.. and a grass plant from DH. Then off to work again. Was still a good day. Lots of nice customers saying "Happy Mother's Day" , even more smiles and laughs.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow, 15 yrs for us.. can you believe it... Fifteen Years; and still I look forward to seeing him every day. Somehow, I cannot imagine that so many years have gone and yet it seems we have been together a life time. I look forward to a full life together. I try each day to tell him " I love you" and he tries each day to make me laugh ( his way of saying I love you back ). A touch, A look, a shared smile and I am happy with my life. He takes all my worries and just blows them away by loving me. Another wonderful thing for tomorrow is the Banquet my DD K is part of, being honored in. I plan on getting it on video to share w/ my Mom since she can't be here to see it. Also I have to remember to take a digital camera for pictures too. My Baby is growing up, and I am growing also.
Until then I am still me, still alive, and still working to live and love well.

A New Day
Well, we said our Farewell's to Gene yesterday.. it was difficult for all who loved him. My DH was a pall bearer, he stood up well.. shed a few tears. He wanted to share some stores, but like the rest of the family he just couldn't get past the tears in him to do so. After the burial, DH his best friend and many more stood around telling the stories. All in All it was a good day, in the sense that Gene is no longer suffering and is now beyond the pains of this time. Although there was all the flowers missing, The family had opted to forgo them in loo of money to help pay for the funeral.. Gene did not have insurance or anything else to help them.
I told Donnie again that I did not want a Preacher at my funeral ( it is not a time for which I gave up so that they could just give another sermon.. ) and that I wanted to be cremated and then you can gather everyone and have a huge party to celebrate my life and me. No Tears, No Black mourning clothes, No Regrets. Just remember me.
I did work that afternoon, it was an okay day, my co-worker and I took turns away from the register to do the more involved work... all in all we got the to do list done and more. Perhaps the next time I am in there I won't get reamed for what WASN'T done ( after I'd left ). We had a big meeting at work the other day, Aired out some frustrations ( at least the management team did ) and so far it seems to be working.. at least all of us except the GYer who seems to be under the impression she can show up .. oh.. whenever.. Bitch. Thanks to her the entire evening gets blown off schedule for the 3 - 11 person. I wish she would either quit or get on the ball.
This morning I was reading http://blog.dogwooddreams.com when I heard my FIL ( next door neighbor ) firing off his shotgun... lol. Stupid people next to him seem to think they have acres of land for all the animals they have on it.. 2 dogs, 3 goats, use to have 4 ducks, shitload of chickens.. minus 2 ... and the fowls are flight capable.. and well there were chickens in the garden of my FIL. Well needless to say, there are two less chickens in the neighborhood.. would have been three only FIL missed one.
Normally he returns the carcasses in hopes that they will get the message and after talking to the District Court Judge.. ( friend also ) he was told not to do that anymore. "Next time just throw the carcasses out the back pasture.. and be sure to call the ASPCA. They will do something about all the animals for such a small place"
We have been starting to have problems w/ the same people also.. well at least some of their animals. Their dog that they allow to run loose in the neighborhood ( chasing cars, school buses, and such ) has been coming late at night and strewing our trash all over the place. Our options are to either call Animal control, or the county commissioner. Or last resort.. Shoot the damn dog. To be quite honest.. I blame the owners around here for not taking care or caring about their animals and allowing them to run / roam free .. free to get run over, chase kids, shit all over the place, destroy property.. I think the owners should be held responsible.
Now, I know it sounds cruel, but I grew in the back wood of the Ozark Mountains where loose unknown dogs were shot on site.. where Coyote hides were posted on fence lines to warn others to keep off. ( Old Wives tale ) . Where you did what had to be done to protect the herds.
Well, I guess I've talked enough for a while. I'll be back another time soon. Have a wonderful weekend Yall.

Done Derby Done
It's Saturday night and I'm home alone.. the kid has gone to a Friend's house and DH is with his BFF visiting the dying father ( who is brain dead now ) at the hospice. DH was a great friend to have gone w/ his BFF to help support and listen to him, relive good time, and cherish the great ones.
My Mom, whom was coming to visit next month ;went and had a stint put in yesterday.. scared me until I was able to talk to her ( Instant Message ) and know that she was alright. Perhaps now she will finally quit smoking and take her weight ( slightly overweight ) into consideration and go on a diet ( I know I know.. I need to too ) . However because of that, we are postponing her trip down here until the fall.. Maybe in Oct for the festival... Just a thought.
I am doing alright... got pissie at work.. work off my pissie and got on w/ my life. Now, On Tuesday.. 4:30 in the afternoon we are having a "meeting" about the bad attitudes, poor work ethics, and sheer stupidy of our work. I'm sure I'll get reemed too about not pushing them to do better, but hell that's one of the reasons I stepped back from Assistant Manager as it is.. I hate having to tell people what they should do and then follow them around making sure they did it .. I call it babysitting.. and yet I still have to do it. And another thing .. my manager is putting to vote.. whether or not to RE hire an EX employee ( worthless piece of egomaniacle shit there is around.. she is all about HER.. two faced pain in the ass ) I made myself clear that if she was to be rehired.... I would quit.. and don't think I wouldn't . F $ still wants me.. and the Arburetum is looking for help. Hell, I can still go somewhere here in town.
So, my Stalker came in this evening.. wouldn't look at me. so I says " What are you mad at me ?" and he says of my co worker.. "She's my girl now... " I'm thinking "alright.. finally ... one less thing to worry about ".. then on his way out he says " Now R, You know you'll always be my girl. " I smile absently and think " SHIT " . So, I'm still stuck w/ him.
The radio was on a sports station but I didn't get to hear who won the Derby.. I use to love watching the races, but I found that a lot of the horses we mistreated, unloved, and used poorly. So I quit watching.
Well, best get some rest and prepare for a long day tomorrow. Yall have a good weekend / week. and I'll talk at you again soon.

Resolve.. not just a household cleaner
Well, I worked w/ the boss lady today, and found that Next Tuesday we are having a big employee meeting.. the basis.. " No More "Well if so and so didn't do it I won't either" and was told that we might be an employee or so short afterwards.. No skin off my nose.. Fchking lazy ass people.. I work my ass off, and I don't do it for them. Anyhow, I feel much better.
Oh, and a couple of my favorite customers ( hubby and wife ) brought me some cake.. yeah cake. They thought enough of me to take the time to bring me food. So, sweet of them. Food is good now and again. I've had other customers bring me other stuff, soup , pies, offer of craw fish ( yumm ) , and each time It has truly and honestly brightened my day not to mention my outlook on the society at large.
So, next time you're out and visit someplace you always visit... bring some cookies for them, let them know they ARE appreciated.
So, G ( DH's BF dad ) is going to be released ( from life support ) tomorrow. Now BF is worried about how to afford the funeral/ burial. I can only hope that something comes their way soon. I know that so much is already on their shoulders.. and not only the past bills, but the future too. Keep them in your thoughts please.
DD is going on a field trip tomorrow, so MIL and I are taking her to look for her Banquet dress on Thursday, I only hope it doesn't cost me too much. However, If we loose an employee or two perhaps I'll have some extra money so I won't worry so much over that.. I will just enjoy being able to spend time with my Lovely DD.
Brightest of Blessing to you all ( Sister Mine )

Excited and Sad
It's a few hours later now, and I've gotten over my Pissed ( for the time being ) .. I cannot control any one's actions while I am not there to watch over them. If they choice not to do their job, and I'm not there... so be it.. I won't take the shit for their demise any longer. I will go in and do My work, My job as best I can. And until I am given the authority to reprimand, write up, and or fire someone... screw it, I'm not going to blow my health just for this menial job.. not when I can go else where.
I'm excited cause I work till 2 this afternoon, and DH and I ( if / when he gets home ) will spend some quality time together. Not to mention that tomorrow I am going to town w/ my MIL ( gotta love that woman ) and spending the day w/ her. Of course I do have to go to my Cardiologist for an INR check up, but that is no biggie. If DD doesn't have anything big at school (TAKS, tests.. what have you ) I might let her come w/ too. Either way, we'll go to lunch, I'll destress, and have a good day. Wednesday, I have to work mid shift, but that's okay since I'll be on the floor and out of sight from the "stupid" people who can't seem to do their jobs.
On the other hand, I'm sad.. DH's best friend's father is Brain Dead, and when he is taken from Life Support ( be it on his own or w/ help ) DH will be pall bearer at the funeral. I know that the day will be difficult for him as the man was like a second father to him. Whatever G needed, if his own son (the BF ) couldn't do DH did ( mechanically ).
I am not looking forward to the funeral, since I KNOW I'll be scheduled to work, but that's the way it falls for me... Sucks. Anyhow, I'll do my best to work around getting the time I need for it and for DH.
Until later Folks... Have a Blessed Day and Future yourselves.

Mondays Suck
Well according to me.. it was actually my Wednesday, but still Today Sucked.. Co-workers are Fcking lazy, and just because someone else didn't do does NOT mean they don't have to do it... Damn It, It Is Their Job to do it. Just do the Fucking work and everyone will be so much happier.. and to top it off, I am at the bottom of the management trail ( my choice since I stepped down from Assistant Manager ).. so since Schit flows down hill.. well I'm buried .
Anyhow, I feel so much better now that I'm home with my family.. and my heart has finally settled back to normal.. Breath In Breath Out. Breath In Breath Out. . In Out.. Okay, better.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow about 2:15, when second shift shows up and I'll be heading home.. Then I can pay my bill, check my mail, and go w/ Hubby (if he's home) to town and get some checks ordered. Maybe then I'll have gotten over this Pissed, and won't be thinking of quitting my job.

A Wineing begining at work
Well work went.. not quickly enough and not like I'd hoped. Instead of me on the floor I am on register having to baby sit the other two. That bites.. I'd just as soon do the work myself and be done w/ it and know it's done correctly and well. This week coming I have two days off .. split days.. but that's okay. I don't mind.. It's better than last weeks was, I had to work 7 days before I got another day off from the previous days I had. I know Bitch Bitch Wine Wine. At least this day is done. On to another one.
Until later.. have a great weekend and I'll chat at you another time.
Until later.. have a great weekend and I'll chat at you another time.
My Monday
I know I know.. it's Friday for most of you.. however I just had two days off, so today is my Monday.
Yesterday finished off just fine.. DD got off from school so I took her to get her hair cut, a bit odd but she seems happy w/ it. Then after getting home and finishing supper DH and I walked around outside. We finish burning the pile of cuttings, walked the perimeter of the pond we are discussing ( a nice small pond in the upper corner of our prop. to put in perch and such to make use of the swamp area that is there), and checked out the garden. In the mean time we also got to see a baby blue jay fall from his nest, hop around, get dive bombed by a mocking bird, climb (you know what I mean ) his tree, and continue his flying lessens. All the time Momma and Daddy Blue jay were watching over him/her. I wish I'd of had the camera to take picture of it, but sry I didn't.
I don't know what days I'll be working as I go from week to week w/ different schedules. Sucks in a way, but at least most days I get to sleep in.. which I so enjoy. As for my stalker, No, not interested... I suppose he could be called good looking if he weren't so stalkerish... he comes to the counter I get his item and he stares, shakes his head, and calls me "So Beautiful".. *CHILLS*.. But I keep myself on my side of the counter when he comes in. Enough about that, I'm in hopes that since it's Friday I'll get to work on the floor ( away from the customers ) and won't have to be nice to anyone today. Besides time goes alot faster there when I work on the floor.
Other than that, not much else to tell. My DH's best friend's father is in the hospital again. He had gone to dialysis and for some reason just quit breathing.. they rushed him to an ICU unit and that is the last we've heard so far. I'm in hopes that he will get better, but I realistically doubt it. He will not come home for some time, if in fact ever. Keep him in your thought should you read this.
Have a wonderful day

OHG!!! Here It Comes Again.
Well here we go again.. my two days off have nearly passed me by.. once again. It's around noon, and it's actually not raining and the wind isn't blowing 90 mph like it has been. I thought I'd stop in and tell you about my day.
I slept in this morning as I am prone to do and then watched Failure to Launch.. cute movie.. I like the thought of Matthew McConaughey being tied up. Then went and paid my electric bill, and set up a hair appointment for my daughter. Strange Child. Got me a strawberry shake and came home to you. Oddly enough my DH hasn't come home like he usually does in the afternoon so I can only guess that work is actually doing something that will keep him there for the entire day. lol.
Yesterday I got up late .. as usual.. and played online for a while. Then DH came home and I watched and listened to it pore rain for the next couple of hours. Then, after considering killing my DH and resuming control of the Remote, I started laundry and decided to go to town and check mail and do some shopping. Yep you guessed it, I am a Housewife.. weird, I never thought in a million years I would be, however I like it.
My BFF Kari http://blog.dogwooddreams.com posted about me posting.. lol. It actually has been quite a long time since I've posted.. I have been working on getting my blog ( antiquated as it is ) back up and running. I probably won't post every day as I just don't have much to say about my day to day life.. other than bitching and moaning over work bullshit, and no one really want to hear that day after day. I could tell you about my stalker at work who comes to see me and tell me that I need to marry him if ( when according to him ) my "relationship" w/ my DH doesn't pan out. LOL like that's going to happen. cause I can tell you right now, If my DH dies or leaves me I 1) most likely will never marry again b) will never date a guy from here. Kinda like I never dated a guy from my own home town. Don't get me wrong.. I innocently flirt w/ a couple of the customers, however they are either happily married and are no threat or are quite a bit younger and don't take me seriously anyhow. Either way we all get a laugh and enjoy our experience at work and go home a bit happier. But the stalker, I don't flirt w/ him let get that straight.. I keep to my business and sell him the product that he asked for. No more, No less.
Okay, enough of that.. I think I'll fix me some lunch and go outside and enjoy the beautiful day, the sunshine ( making sun tea too ), and look over and feed my plants. Oh, and I forgot I have to start supper in a couple of hours too. Roast Beef, potatoes, I may even go get some carrots too.
For those that pass through and actually read now, have read, or will return.. have a wonderfulous day too.
I slept in this morning as I am prone to do and then watched Failure to Launch.. cute movie.. I like the thought of Matthew McConaughey being tied up. Then went and paid my electric bill, and set up a hair appointment for my daughter. Strange Child. Got me a strawberry shake and came home to you. Oddly enough my DH hasn't come home like he usually does in the afternoon so I can only guess that work is actually doing something that will keep him there for the entire day. lol.
Yesterday I got up late .. as usual.. and played online for a while. Then DH came home and I watched and listened to it pore rain for the next couple of hours. Then, after considering killing my DH and resuming control of the Remote, I started laundry and decided to go to town and check mail and do some shopping. Yep you guessed it, I am a Housewife.. weird, I never thought in a million years I would be, however I like it.
My BFF Kari http://blog.dogwooddreams.com posted about me posting.. lol. It actually has been quite a long time since I've posted..

A new Begining
Well, it's 4 something in the morning and I'm still awake.. damn bladder. Naw, can't blame my night wandering on that.. I just wish I had a book to read. I figure this is a good time as any to update my blogger and put it to use.
We moved into the home we lived in before we moved to Vegas.. so it seems we've come full circle. We figured we'd end up buying the place after DH's Grandmother passed away, I'm just glad that it's still here for us.
I'm doing okay... my heart beat is till wonkie but it doesn't seem to alarm anyone so I deal w/ it. I go in next Tuesday to get my INR checked again. Personally after 3 years of this you'd think they'd let me check in every 6 weeks at the clinic, and not at their "Comadin Clinic " where I get charged another $30. for 5 minutes worth of their time. I know that they are going to bitch about my weight, I've gained some in the last couple of months, but I think alot of it is water weight and will be seeing if they will allow me some water pills to help.. I know this cause I can see it in my ankles when I get off of work and take my socks off. I also know that I need to really lay off the pop tarts ( one a day ) and get back to my fruit thing.. I like a bit of fruits ( apples, bananas, and such ) to snack on throughout my work time.. helps keep me from the hot dogs ( which smell sooo good ). Also, will have to figure out something else besides water to drink at work.. our tasted funny today.. metally Blachh!!.
In the last two months I haven't been real crafty.. other than working on a scarf for a friend I haven't picked up any of my crochet hooks. Oh well, there will come a time to get it done and off to another project for me to ignore. I feel bad cause I seem to have put off answering a lot of emails and mails from loved ones. I know I shouldn't put them off but I still have hopes that Time will slow down enough that I can do it and not miss out on anything else.. I'm only 35 but I swear there are days I feel as it I were 70. So much to do so little time. I can't wait for work to be done and over for the day.. There's 8 hours and since I work evenings there's 8 or so hours after that so that's 16 to 18 hours wasted there. That leaves me 6 hours to do what I want to do... however realistically that's not even true since most of my time off I spend doing laundry, grocery shopping, paying the bills, cleaning house, visiting those I've ignored nearly too long. It's a vicious cycle I'm telling you.
Work still bugs me, since I stepped back from the Assistant Manager's position I feel that I've been shoved into a corner and been told to stay.. bad girl.. take your punishment. Well, I am now the pro verbally "babysitter" at work for those who are newer at work.. On top of doing my part of the job I also have to watch over, critique, and make sure they do their part of the work too. I seems to me that if you have a job to do... and hope to make the best of it.. you will do the work and do it well. However, that is not the case for many of my co workers. Nope, Not at all. Instead, I get to alienate myself even more and badger them to do it right, well, and in a timely fashion. I guess that's better than apologizing to my family about my job, giving up any chance at a normal home life. So, I'll quit bitching over that.
However I still have the same bitch... If You Live In America.. Learn the Fucking Language. Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and a few other states are NOT part of Mexico and do NOT belong to the Mexicans. Therefore They Need to Learn The American Language. And the First Two Phrases they need to be taught are : PLEASE and THANK YOU. I am so sick of foreigners coming in and telling me "Give ME". Fuck you and log you rode in on.. Unfortunately I cannot say this at work ( unless I want to loose my job ), So I bite my tongue and go on.
well, it's after 5 now, and I suppose I should get some rest.. I have the next two days off so I'll be paying bills, shopping for food, cleaning clothes and house. I wish you well.
