Change on the horizon?

Haven't blogged in a while.  Been feeling better I guess.  Had a good time at Jack's First Communion party Saturday night after a grueling day at work...we were short $1097 on the quarter and managed to pull it out by $22.  That was pressure!  Its not a great bonus, but a few hundred dollars in a couple weeks and as a store we look good on paper...united to win!

In other career news I will be interviewing tomorrow for a position at the Boulevard mall store.  It would be a temporary position as the comanager there for the summer, June thru September.  Long and complicated but there is a store manager in Rochester going out on maternity leave and another in Buffalo who was diagnosed with breast cancer and they are doing some "growth assignments" and moving some people into different positions to cover those managers while they are out.  It would be really nice to be at Boulevard for the summer.  Closer, learn some things from different managers, try something new!  Kind of excited and I hope it goes well...fingers crossed!

Andy was approved for another 13 weeks of unemployment so that is a relief...I just hope he is able to figure out what it is that he wants to do and I really hope it isn't collections.  I don't know what I want him to do, but something different for sure!

I still am not motivated to do any form of working out at all and I get disgusted with myself and the way I look.  I at least asked yesterday if the treadmill was plugged in.  I can get at it now, maybe tomorrow.  I know it will feel so good when I actually start moving...I just don't know why I can't get motivated?  Tomorrow...

I had such plans for tomorrow too...forgetting it was opening of turkey season.  And then I scheduled the interview.  And then I told my mom I would stop by.  I had such plans of sleeping in with Andy, maybe doing some cleaning, make a nice dinner, just relax with him.  His back has been all contorted lately helping Brad move stuff, cleaning out the basement and its probably still out of whack since our trip to SC.  I thought I could give him a nice back rub, we could have a nice dinner, watch some hockey, etc.  But, instead he is getting up at 5am to shoot turkey, I am going to an interview at Boulevard at 10, then stopping to see my mom (who not only got an iphone, but also a new computer today), then Andy is helping Doug move some stuff before he goes to NC.  I don't think we have the kids till Wednesday?  Maybe we can do something with them Thursday night?  I work Wednesday night and Paul's surgery is Friday...

I guess that is all.  Been trying to connect with Nicole and haven't.  She left me a message, I left her one, she left me one, I left her one...

Allie got a new job and was supposed to come over last Sunday but cancelled since she started Monday...left her a message too to wish her well this week and let her know we would see her soon. 

Getting better at the phone thing but I still hate talking on the phone.

OK, getting tired.  Going to watch the news, catch up on facebook and say goodnight.

Things to remember:  being surprised that Andy commented on Doug's blog, but happy about it...fingers crossed for Boulevard, driving home in the rain, hopes for better days...for everyone
