Interesting day....I took the weekend off to prepare my Babygirl for going back to college then realized it was also Super Bowl weekend...wow
Baltimore Ravens has 2 UofD alumni players...
Super Hens
UD alums Flacco, Gradkowski to compete in Super Bowl XLVII
Quarterback Joe Flacco and offensive lineman Gino Gradkowski, who both earned All-American honors for the Blue Hens during their stellar playing careers in Newark,
This is some serious stuff for us!
Move in day and the Super Bowl....what the hell were they thinking. Liz is all packed up and on her way back. She is hoping to be settled in as quick as possible so she can join in on some Super Bowl festivities somewhere.
I teared up when she left...I am going to miss her but I know she needs to spread her wings. She has a new roommate this semester...which happens to be her best friend. She has classes with Stephanie so that will make it easier for her. I think part of her issues last semester she was lonely.
I have mentioned the Super Bowl and Babygirl next work....you knew it was coming don't act like you didn't....
I got a call about 9:40ish from my Ops Mgr informing me that my Replen Mgr handed in his keys this morning. No notice no nothing just quit. And honestly thought that once I found out I would beg him not to quit....yeah about that last part nope! Not happening... If he did not care enough about our Store and his crew I am not worried about him. Everyone is replaceable.
Of all weeks to quit like that...man oh man. First week of the new year and a shit ton of pogs to be set this week...wow! That's alright...we will get through and probably better off anyway. Not going to stress over it.
So now on to enjoy my day off.....Super Bowl pregame coverage...learning a lot about New Orleans to start, then to dig into the teams and predictions. I can't wait. I love the commercials, the half time show and good hard hitting football...
Ravens vs 49ers.....today I am a Ravens fan...not a diehard Ravens fan but enough to cheer for them today...I will always be a Falcons girl!
Forgive me for it has been a while since my last post....its not that I don't have anything to say.....its finding the time to get out.
I seem to always be on the go lately. Its February for goodness sakes already wow!
I have had so many thoughts in my head the last several weeks that I wanted to blog about but never sat down to do it....grr and of course I can not think of what they were to save my life??????
I suppose I will just update you on life...
It has been an interesting week, it snowed the first part of the week then it was in the high 70's then it snowed again and today it is barely in the teens but the groundhog didn't see his shadow so spring is right around the corner....hopefully. Driving in snow and ice all the way to OC is not fun at all! Maybe if I had better tires and 4wd it would be.
My store is doing fairly well! I had an LP audit this week. It went OK not as well as I would have liked but I did learn a lot. By the time she comes back we will be 100% ready!
Still working the different personalities at work. When I think I have everyone figured out I realize nope not yet. I am becoming better at it....follow follow follow up even on the ones that have been there for years! They seem to be the ones fucking me at the moment.
My daughter goes back to college tomorrow...mixed feelings. I will miss her but we seem to be butting heads. She is a grown woman that needs to make her own decisions not have her Mommy do it for her. She needs to be more responsible for herself and her life. I am frustrated with her and its my own fault really. She is a great daughter but she is not a little girl anymore.
My son on the other hand...needs to realize I am still his Mommy and I do make decisions for him like it or not. In some ways he is way to grown up and in other omg wtf!
next subject:
MY poor hair :( I don't remember if I told you about the fuck up with my hair right before I went to Dallas....hubby didn't like it blonde he wanted it back to my normal color, he helped pick out a color he liked.....it came out pumpkin orange. No lie pumpkin orange, needless to say I could not leave it that color. I got what I thought would be a safe over the counter box hair dye...nice and easy foam. OMG it fried my hair. I was having to put heavy amounts of conditioner in to keep it from looking like straw. Anyway..the dye faded out with in a week or so....but I was too afraid to dye it again ( I still am). I've decided to buy an expensive treatment for it then get it chopped off. I hate to say it but I am going to let it go natural. I am going to be gray. I hate the idea but what other choice do I have really? I don't want it to fall out.
Oh big news....I am talking to my baby brother. After 19 years finally found him again. He is 24 now and a little on the wild side. He is a good man that has lived a tough life...in the shadows of the legend of my father....legends are always so much more greater than the actual truth. Talk about a fucked up life...damn. Maybe with us reconnecting I can help him along the right road instead of the road our father and sister have gone.
ok I think that is enough for now....it was a bunch of rambling anyway.
