Wow, I am very tired today. I worked REALLY hard last night. For some reason it was really busy. I don't understand why people do grocery shopping on Mondays. To me, that is just a bad day. It's the beginning of the work week. You should want to relax at the end of the day.

I squashed my fingers while pushing carts. My left pinky is swollen and bruised. I also ran my foot over with a few carts as well. I'm very very sore. My back doesn't hurt as much as it did Friday night.

Apparently I should be getting a check on Thursday! That would be awesome.

Today is laundry day. I have so much to do I was able to get picky on my sorting.

Yep, work today. I'm still a little drained from this weekend, but I'll do fine. I hope I will get my schedule for next week soon, well the next two weeks. I know they've made both schedules because I've been told I don't work thanksgiving. We aren't getting the whole family together, which I'm actually happy about. Now I don't have to pretend to like someone. Chris, Vanessa and I are going to his parents though. I'm not quite ready to do thanksgiving on my own. Plus I think that it should be celebrated with some family.

Chris and I have decided that there is really nothing keeping us in Arizona for life. We will be moving out of this state to the east coast in several years. First I am going to finish school. And we are going to wait until the economy gets better so I know that we will both be able to get jobs. Also, I want to save up to buy a house when we move out there.

I slept in until 8:30 this morning. I swear that Chris makes me lazy.

So I survived Vanessa's Birthday Party. Needless to say I am exhausted. Vanessa had an awesome time! She got a fridge magnet farm by Leaprfrog that plays music and stuff. She absolutely loves it. I can't keep her away from the fridge. Chris and I got her a ball popper toy that she is afraid of. If it's only shooting out two balls she's okay, but when all the balls are in there is goes to fast for her and scares her. She got lots of clothes and a couple stuffed animals.

She isn't a huge fan of sweets, so she didn't dig into her cake like most kids do, but that was an easier clean up for me.

After looking through my gallery I realized I need to upload a few pics of me and Chris.

I have been writing and things, just have been REAL busy this week.

I work Mon-Fri this week! 3-10pm each shifts. Hopefully I will be able to do a little bit more than register. I would love to get a chance to learn the store to help customers out a little more.

I am beat. I know I will sleep well tonight.

Okay, so today is Vanessa's first birthday party!

I'm a little stressed. Due to some issues that I will not disclose here, we canceled the Little Gym Party. Now I have to plan a party for my house. I have to get food, decorations and games and crap. I'm really pissed.

But Vanessa looks adorable, and is going to have fun, so that's all that matters.

Work last night was fun. I got to run the register all by myself! I was pretty happy with myself. My back was killing me at the end of my shift though. Came home to some awesome food though!

Awesome! So I started working again this week and it's already looking up for me. Finished everything I had to last night and then some on my training. Got added to the schedule for tonight! That means 15 hours this week!

Rocco, one of the ASMs put me on for over 30 hours next week. Says he's going to also put me down as the call girl! Which is perfect cause I live in walking distance. Told me to keep an open availability because of some stuff that will be happening next week. He wanted to wait to give me the following weeks schedule because of it.

I'm currently claiming "bread winner" on my taxes. I will change that once Chris is back working. Then I will have them hold many taxes when chris is working again.

Vanessa is doing awesome. She's standing a lot more. She will be walking w/in two weeks I think. She's dances a lot more too.

Tomorrow is her birthday party. I will be taking lots and lots of pictures!

Yay for things looking up. Now all I have to worry about is getting chris in work again.
