Apparently I slept right through an earthquake! I've had trouble sleeping for the past few weeks but I somehow manage to sleep right through a little quake. Perhaps it wasn't all that but they're saying it was rattling skyscrapers in Chicago. I live a half a mile from Chicago so I imagine I would have felt something. But, of course, I slept ( Read more... )

Worst place for an empath to be? Sitting outside the room where a family is having their dog put to sleep. I'm surprised I didn't kill Pandora from crushing her to me so hard. Plus I felt like an idiot, sitting alone in the waiting room, crying my eyes out for no apparent reason. But aside from that, our visit went really well. Pandora has ( Read more... )

The good news is...my store will have a new manager the second week of February! Yay! Someone who already knows what they're doing! She can just come in and do her thing! I'm so happy! So things will get better at work soon. Whew ( Read more... )

So the snow I was all worried about got started about the time I pulled into work and by the time I left work it had stopped and the roads were fine. Damp, but clear. So I worried for nothing. As usual. Gotta keep reminding myself to worry when there's something to worry about. Preemptive worrying accomplishes nothing but giving the possible ( Read more... )

So we have a snow advisory for tomorrow. Great. I hate driving on treacherous roads. My vehicle is not meant for such things. The worst of it should occur while I'm actually working which hopefully means that it won't be so bad on the drive home. Maybe. Just not happy about it but there's nothing I can do. I'm not going to try and leave ( Read more... )

Work is done and I'm almost packed and ready to go! I wish I could leave right now but I'm actually dead tired and a long drive, late into the night would probably not be the smartest thing. I'll rest up a bit and leave early in the morning. Even Pandora seems to know I won't be going to work for a bit and she'll get to be with me for a few days ( Read more... )

It's Friday, right? I keep losing track. Earlier this week I thought Tuesday was Monday and yesterday I thought it was Wednesday so I seem to be a day behind as I've thought it was Thursday a couple of times today. I don't know why I've been that way all week. I think because I tend to have Sundays off and then back to work Monday. I worked ( Read more... )

I can't believe I got through the past 2 days. I was exhausted last night but I slept well for once. Although I still feel a bit tired right now. Coffee will help that. :) And I just heard the coffee maker beep so I'm going to make this short and sweet for now ( Read more... )

I had a nice evening last night. Ferric came over and stayed until this morning. I still make him smile in the morning so that's a good thing. He's gone now. Had to drive back to Lansing today for band practice. Tomorrow he's being kind enough to check in on Pandora for me because it's going to be a very long day for me. She spends so much ( Read more... )

This not going to MySpace and facebook is leaving me not knowing what to do with myself when I get on the computer. I can't believe how much of my time that took up. Cripe, maybe I should just give them up for good and find more productive things to do! But it won't happen. I mean, I'll eventually find more productive things to do during my ( Read more... )
