Friday was the longest day at work, of course cause I got off early so the minutes ticked slowly... I did get a lot done though... Stocked the men's work boots, organized the stockroom and worked more kid's clearance... son1 was off at work, son3 was on his computer games and son2 was trying to make plans with friends but no one was available so he came home and watched Smallville with hubby and me... then we all went to bed early...
This morning hubby and I went to Walmart to get a head start on Christmas shopping... I always have big plans to get it all done in one swoop but it never happens, lol... Monday we will hit Sears, then plan a stop at Target some time, a bit of shopping online and a few more stops in December and then we will be done... Then we came home and I had more big plans of cleaning but I had a big headache and a kink in my neck again... so I worked on the Christmas cards a bit, watched the original Halloween with son2 after he raked the leaves in the front yard, hubby blew the leaves in the backyard, hubby did the dishes, I made tuna sandwiches for lunch, son3 has been playing game boy all day, I vacummed and son2 and hubby put up the artificial Christmas tree, I did two loads of laundry, I made breakfast for dinner since we went out early shopping, son1 came home and we watched Role Models, too funny, now son3 is getting ready for bed to watch Narnia 2, son1 is settled on the computer, and hubby, son2 and I are going to watch Trick R Treat, scary..... tomorrow I work really early but get off really early too....
Happy Journaling...
I always wake up hating Thursdays but then they always turn out fine... Son2 missed the bus this morning because his friend texted him and said it was foggy day schedule... so he came home to check the tv instead of going to the bus stop and checking for the bus... strangely his friends did not miss the bus... son1 was nice to get up and take him to school as his school is on the opposite part of town way out in the grape fields... so I got me and son3 ready and we went our way to school and work... today I finished stocking the men's athletic shoes, went to lunch and then worked on kid's clearance the rest of the day... we also got supplies in and I got the one that I really need that had been broken by other associates... also today is my 29th anniversary at Sears... 29 years ago I was temporary Christmas help... started my first day in the candy/popcorn counter and was a floater the first three months... I never turned in my last day notice as temporary help so they put me in the kids department and the rest is history... Got home and hubby had homework done and leftover chicken soup for dinner with biscuits... Now we are watching Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, too funny... I'm taping my shows: Bones, Fringe and Supernatural... One more day of school and the boys are on vacation for a week!! Off to finish the movie and then to bed, I work early tomorrow...
Happy Journaling...

Today was a long quick day at work, I could of used another hour on top of my eight... I stocked men's athletic and worked the clearance, then after clearing a lot of room in the stockroom, I could finally put away all the fashion boots... I'm off tomorrow and then Thursday will be finishing the men's athletic shoes and then mens' shoes and work boots by Friday... Only a week left til Black Friday...
Got home and hubby had hot dogs and macaroni and cheese made for dinner... Now we've been watching The Proposal ever since... Such a good movie! so funny and sad and happy....

Happy Journaling...
I survived my first 9-5:45 day today... I kept busy stocking women's and men's athletic shoes so the time went along at a good pace... hopefully it will tomorrow too... we were quite busy this morning so the customers kept me busy too...
On the way home there was a road closure on one of the major roads, Fresnians do not know how to merge and the sad thing is half of them are from the bay area where all we do is merge, so we had to detour, where there was an accident, and then a long line to get through the turn lane without a green arrow, I was going straight, then a fire truck was coming toward us in the opposite lane with it's lights and sirens going and then there was an ambulance coming from behind us with it's lights and sirens going... I got home safely...
hubby had scrambled eggs, chicken fries and leftovers for dinner and he was grumbling about homework taking two hours... I did my crunches, threw a load in the washer, ate dinner and watched Family Guy, read with son3 and now doing my entry for NaBloPoMo, post every day in the month of November... son1 actually ate dinner with us tonight and is settled in for the night and he's off the next two days...
Time to get the boys settled in bed and ready for school tomorrow... I'm off to have some egg nog and get ready to watch Castle tonight... OH and The Proposal came today from Netflix, can't wait to watch it....
Happy Journaling....
Not much today... I worked 6am to 2:45pm... spent most of the time setting up the ad... was a small in between ad but I took my time and did everything completely... changed most of the sale tables and printed all the missing signs that got lost since last week... went to lunch in between and spent the last hour stocking men's dress shoes and women's athletic shoes...
Got home, changed, did my crunches, got a drink and settled in for an online chat with The Motivation Station gals, making our plans for next year...
by time we were done, hubby was home, so I pulled out all the leftovers, on Sunday it's fix what you want day...
Now we are watching Numbers from the last two weeks and the boys need to start getting ready for bed and school... Son1 has been out and about all day...
Think I'll have some hot chocolate while watching some shows... tomorrow is another full day at work...
Happy Journaling...
