I am on my second load of laundry. About ten more to go. It's bedding day. I am washing all of the sheets, pillow cases, and comforters, along with a week's worth of dirty clothes and towels. Gotta love it.
The kid has already cleaned up the living room and his bedroom. He has loaded and unloaded the dishwasher and taken out the trash. Not bad.
I have a ton to do. I am sorting through lots of papers and boxes, throwing away what I don't need to take with us. I am hoping we will be able to move around the first week in August. Placing the kid in school may prove to be a bit challenging. School up there starts around August 18, so we will need to start looking right away.
Well, clean clothes are staring at me, waiting to be folded. Gotta go. Later.

I Gotta Go Get The Kid
Good morning. I only had to work a half day today. Thank goodness. I am going to pick up the kid today from the grandparents' house. I really miss him.
Yes, I got the job I wanted. This will mean a move sometime in July. We will live in an apartment for the first year we are there. After a year, we will look at buying a new house. We do have to sell the house we are in. It shouldn't be too hard. It's not a new house, so it should sell well under $100,000. The kid is going with me, but the dad is putting up a major fight. I will have to work with the legal system. Shouldn't be a problem. He will be able to visit his dad anytime he wants.
I am getting extremely excited, however, I have not really told any of my co-workers. My departments do not know either. I think everyone will start finding out this week. This sucks because I need to concentrate on getting a store grand opening ready and I definitely don't need the extra drama.
As we get closer to moving, I am sure blogging will not be a priority. So there's your warning if the posts start getting sparse. I apologize now.
Hope you are all enjoying your weekend. I gotta go get the kid...

Great News!!!
Good morning! I have some wonderful news!
I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!
That's right, I got the job. I also got everything I asked for. WooHoo!!! I am waiting for my offer letter to get here. My division will not make an announcement until I get my offer letter and I officially accept the position.
Cinci - Here I come!
I always knew I would be moving to a bigger city. I am so very happy right now. Thanks for all your kind words and positive comments. I appreciate it so much. It has helped the waiting part of this.
One of the VPs used to be my boss. She has inspired me so much. It's going to be so sad to leave, but so exciting to start something new. She told me she would back me up 100%, so I know I am going to be okay.
I also told my best friend last night. She works for our company and she seemed shocked. I have been keeping this from her for a long time. I know she would consider making a move as well. That would be nice to have her there with me.
Well, I am scheduled off today. I have a ton of stuff to do. I think a list of things to do needs to be the first thing I tackle today. Unfortunately, this list is going to keep growing and growing until it's time to leave. Later...

Aggravated, Irritated, Just Plain Bitchy
My sister has a tendency to really irritate me sometimes. She can have such a nasty attitude about things. When we took her to dinner last night, it seemed as though nothing could be done good enough for her. She was rude to the waitstaff, rude in her comments about the restaurant of HER choice, and just plain bitchy. Yeah, yeah, I seem very irritated, but it just pisses me off. People are so ungrateful for what they have. Ugh!
Well, I made it back in good time. The kid is back with the grandparents anxiously waiting for grandpa to take him fishing. Boys. What do you do?
I guess one of my stores ran into some problems over the weekend. We have some assistants who have no business being in management. Oh well. Back to the grindstone tomorrow.
I should hear something this week about the interview. I have yet to tell my best friend. She is going to freak out if I get the position. It's making me a little nervous.
Hope you all had a fantastic weekend!
