Sseptember Ninth

I am feeling good today… Still yelling of course but to get everyone motivated to get some things done not just yelling out of frustration…
I did not get as much done at work last night but it was  a good night… the system was down so no one has been able to make schedules yet… I also did not get as much scanned in the stockroom as I wanted… but we did get some clearance moved around on the floor to make room for tables of women’s fashion boots to go out today… tonight I’m hoping to get more scanning done in the stockroom and put out a table so we can put out the kid’s slippers… I’ll also have the manager on duty phone for three hours and after dinner have closing the store duties to perform… plus I wonder who I am closing with tonight as one of the other managers isn’t able to work as her husband had to go to the hospital…
Son1 sold his Jeep yesterday for $4500… $4000 for the down payment on his truck and $500 toward the $3000 he borrowed from a friend to buy his Honda many cars ago… leaving $600 he still owes the friend… he was refinanced and now will pay $340 a month which includes full warranty up to 100,000 miles on the truck and he got a lower interest rate than hubby and I got on hubby’s Liberty we just bought due to losing the Saturn when I was rear ended in an accident back on Fourth of July weekend… Son1 has worked 96 hours the last two weeks at his job… Girlfriend starts cosmetology school on Monday…
Hubby said he also had a bit of a talk with son1 about his plan for the next year and that we may need him to help out a bit the three weeks after hubby’s surgery when he’s home recuperating with his catheter… I am planning on taking a week off while hubby is in the hospital and his first days home…
I haven’t really seen son2 as he is asleep when I get home and I say good bye to him as he is the first one out the door in the morning…
Son3 did homework with hubby last night as I was at work… so this morning I went through his backpack making sure all homework was done and covered another one of his books… as soon as he was dressed and done with breakfast this morning we studied spelling words for his spelling test today… as he is in the 350 club at school for GPA 3.4 or better he brought money for the snack bar as he gets a discount when wearing his 350 shirt and badge… he was up at 3:30  this morning with a nightmare so watched Megamind until he could fall back asleep…
Hubby is off at work today… he finished writing up his training seminar and now must give it to his boss for approval… although he is also training them as they hired him because he is the copy expert…
The reason we have decided for hubby to have the surgery to remove the prostate is because it ensures the most chance of removing all the cancer… if they remove the prostate and find no cancer outside the prostate or none shows up in the years to come as it is very small and slow growing and not easy to detect at first then hubby will be cured and live out his life as intended… and understands the chance of side effects of incontinence and erectile dysfunction…
I am also feeling good probably because I have the weekend off… We are trying to decide to go for a picnic to the mountains or to the beach…
Hubby will be going grocery shopping today to get food for the week, stuff for a picnic and ingredients to make comfort stew that I will be putting in the crock pot tomorrow morning before we leave… check out the recipe at my entry at Our Krazy Kitchen tomorrow…
I didn’t think I would have time to do this entry as I wasted an hour at facebook playing Yoville and it kept causing me to lose internet connection and losing all the work I had done on my RV before I had a chance to click save… But here I am almost done and still have a couple of minutes before I have to start getting ready for work… and I even already had breakfast, lunch, vacuumed, cleaned up the dirt where the kittens keep getting in my houseplants, cleaned up the boys bathroom after the kittens as that is where we keep their litter box  and food and filled out a birthday card to go in the mail…

On this day, God wants you to know
... that when you focus on problems, you will have more problems. When you focus on possibilities, you will have more opportunities.
Happy Journaling
