Hello all. It's raining and cold. Hubby is at work all day long and I have story bunnies that are acting like teens by rebelling and changing their minds.
Late but better than never thanks for the Christmas cards from justblue0162, Twoweevils, and slashybits. I was very bah humbug this year and they cheered me up.
Kids + us got a Wii. Hubby managed to get up and get to Toy R Us when they opened at 6am and get one. Got games for each of us though he loves the Star Trek Conquest one he got for me better than I do. The Wii sports is fun and the four year old is kicking all newcomers butts in bowling and boxing. She's hilarious in the boxing and utters stuff like "You want a piece of me?"
I got two very nice purses and 3 sets of satiny pajamas. I love them and they are perfect for getting my lounge on. One pair is a cream and maroon striped pants and button down shirt, another is a cotton long-sleeved maroon shirt with satiny pants with maroon amoeba looking things on them.
The other pair of pajamas are purple and very island like and I got a tropical green, yellow housecoat to go with them since the shirt has spaghetti straps.
Also got a nice gift card from Lane Bryants because I like to occasionaly browse their store. And by browse I mean buy stuff.
14 year anniversary was yesterday. Me and hubby plan on celebrating next week with dinner out. Wow, that's a long time.
Work is slow even with Yoyodyne's christmas time lay off. I didn't get laid off and worked with one other lady on the 29th and 30th. There was supposed to be three of us but our assistant manager had a death in the family.
Those two days before New Year's eve were not slow at all since the other lady didn't get on the phone(she thought she was the boss) and listened to voice mails then called those people back. Took her all day but I was zen about it and didn't keep punching my phone to see how many people were on hold or how long they'd been holding.
I did my best and that was that. See I can't remember if our boss told her to do that stuff or not. I thought she didn't but maybe I didn't hear her tell the lady to do the voice mails very slowly.
Plus the higher ups let us go early on the 30th cause they wanted to jet too. Ahh, old Yoyodyne, never change. Work should pick up soon but meanwhile I get to stuff envelopes and stick stamps on envelopes while answering calls with my tight* headphones on.
*Not tight as in cool but tight as in oh-my-god these things are about to squeeze my brains out through my nose.
Think that's it on the personal front. Will post kid's new holiday pics later and do a post about writing and the tv shows for the new year. Rec's too maybe.
