Life and Times today
Lets see whats new, whats new? I promised Id start updating this thing more often so I am doing just that.
Uh well at Baskin Robbins we are starting our remodel tomorrow. New wall paper is going to be going up, then after that we are getting new sinage, counters and furnature. Im excited. Me and Fatima have waited along time for an opportunity to give the place a serious bath. Don't get me wrong! We keep the place the cleanest we can but somethings just can't be done till "the right time" yah know. Its going to take a couple weeks for the whole transformation. The way Baskin Robbins has set it up is that there is a work crew that comes in and does each part indicidualy. We will stay open through out the whole time. The final day is the day we get the furnature and this new topping center thing we might be closed and then have a Re-Grand opening. It will be an adventure! Oh also on the topic of BR. I am now cake decorator. Well I guess first I should say that I got another job. I got a possition at Washington Mutual. They pay ALOT more and i get benefits and stuff. I am going to be doing that in the evenings. So BJ and Julie decided to offer me the "cake manager" possition as they call it. That way I can go in and leave at whatever time I want really. I still do all the behind the scenes work that I was doing before but I am not doing customer dipping and my schedule is more flexible. Also, its super cool! Washingtom Mutual is litterally seconds away from BJs house. They offered me a room for the school year. I don't think I will take them up on it. BJ and Julie are wonderful people and we all have a great time together but I just can't get over that Idea of living with my boss! strange! Also moving out of tommy's would be wierd. I mean I have only been officially living here for 2 months but every thing is going perfect and Its deff home for me! What I am going to do though is stay at BJ and Julz occasionally. The weather on that part of the area tends to be extreme at times. Loads of rain, bad ice storms when it gets clod and stuff. I will stay there when its not safe to drive all the way home. Im sure you all needed to know every detail of that.
I start washingtom mutual July 10th. Im pretty excited. I actually have to dress up and be super professional. Deff not Baskin Robbins.
Other than work . . .
This week I became an Aunt! My sister Holly had her baby. Jordan is her name. She is sooooooo freakin Cute! In all honesty I am so jelous! I can't wait to have kids. No joke if I found out i had a bun in the oven today I would not shed a single tear! You know and it doesn't help being with a person who I truely believe I will be with for the rest of my life. So scary but true. On the other hand. If I were to find out that i couldn't have children I would be so crushed that im sure i would go into deep depresion. But thats negative so we don't go there.
As far as me and Tom are going. We are doing great. We are coming up on our one year pretty soon. I will tell you it will be such an accomplishment for me. I conquered many fears of mine in our one year of growth and learning. But more on that in a month when we actually hit that mark. We are doing good though.
Oh here is what the new br is goign to look like or similar. our store is going to have more new-age black and silver encorporated though . . . http://baskinrobbins.com/FranchiseOpportunities/ExploreStore.aspx
And here is my new little niece! http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=54747503&imageID=874268141&MyToken=c734b7b3-384f-4f1c-9e08-9f7e0fcfafbd
