the other day...

I misspelled people.

PEAPOOL !

hahahahahaaaaaaaa...

from checkout chick to dairy queen?

So yesterday at work, I got a gold star! I thought that was pretty cool. (Not an actual gold star, but a certificate and chocolates because I got 100% in some customer first check thingo... ha, I don't even really know what it means other than I have good customer service skills...) Anyway, today while I was at work, Fiona approached me to tell me that they have a part time position in dairy, 32 hours per week... for me! At first I was like heck yes, but it does mean that I have to work weekends... and yes, Sundays. I really don't want to work Sundays, even though the money is good. They won't make me work mornings at least... and I am hoping that it is not every sunday. If it was only a couple a month, I would strongly consider it. Well i'm strongly considering it anyway. Sigh. I really hope it is not every Sunday...

So yeah. I have easter to think about it, and then the store manager will talk to me. It will be a very different job, and honestly it does make me a tad sad to give up being a checkout chick, which is kinda funny... but I do enjoy it. I'm sure the dairy thing will be hard work, but it will be good. Of course I know I will take the job... but that doesn't mean I've finished thinking and praying about all that I need to. It really does come at a good time though, I think. I need stable hours, I really do. And 32 is a pretty good amount I reckon!

So yeah. That is my latest story!

Another thing... As I was walking out from work and saying bye to everyone, one of the girls I work with was like 'what's that you've got?' (I was holding the position description thingo) I showed her and she was like 'you put that back!'... Oh, to be loved!

In other news...

I almost forgot. I am going to become a tupperware demonstrator! I really hope this new adventure is successful, and that the people around me are supportive. I just figured it would be a great opportunity for me to get out there and have some fun, meet some new people and earn some extra money. I love the fact that it is flexible, and that I can work around my checkout chickness. So yes. I am having a go, so fingers & toes it's a winner. I'm having my announcement party on Tuesday evening, so hopefully lots of people come along and book parties to get me started!

I refuse to go numb...

Well. I just went to the dentist. I got 3 of the 6 fillings I need (eek) and my mouth is very numb. But the worst of it all (and one of the main reasons why I had put off going to the dentist for so long)... I have to get my wisdom teeth removed. Apparently this won't be an easy task... as they aren't exactly exposed. I am really really not looking forward to this! Financially, it is a dumb time... (I have no idea how much is costs... but it is gonna cost something!) I have to get a car, pay for a bridesmaids dress and other related things... all in the same sort of time frame. Sigh... Oh well, this is an opportunity. An opportunity to trust God and to let him be my provider.

So yeah. That is my story.
