Land of Oz


I am now calling my place of employment the Land of Oz. Why? Well, you have a wizard who is a fraud, you have wicked witches, good witches, annoying munchkins, and pesky flying monkeys. I am sure you can figure out who is who.
Today is Leap Day. This is a day I love. It always gives me more time. But I won't get into that. I just like this day.
We are going to my family's house this weekend. We plan on leaving tomorrow morning around 7 with the arrival time of 9. I need to pick a couple of things up for my mom at the store. I figured we would get there in time to make breakfast for everyone.
Well, I am off to see the wizard again. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

Joy, Great, Bummer

I am listening to a conference call which is completely boring me to death. Today starts our three day manager's meeting. Joy.

Our company is being told that the price of gasoline and the price of beef will be skyrocketing by the end of this year. Great.

I did go to dinner last night with a very good friend of mine. We had so much fun. Josh went with us and I think he was still trying to hear this morning. We were pretty loud, but it was oh so fun! I love meeting with friends, wining and dining. It is good times. I wish some of my blogging friends lived closer. Bummer.

So, I guess I better get going. It should be a pretty long night, so I probably won't update until tomorrow evening. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Sooooo Enthusiastic

Well, we went to my mom and dad's house yesterday and returned to another snow storm. It really wasn't a storm, but we did get the white stuff again. Joy.

I am anxious for spring to get here. I can't wait. The fever has set in. Spring fever is the worst. Damn Ground Hog. Too bad I don't have a trap. Speaking of Ground Hog, Cheryl, do you still have that little pest in your yard?

Anyway, I have a busy week ahead of me. We have a meeting Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. All of the store managers will be in town and we are having an awards banquet, plus a workshop. woo.hoo.

Can you sense the enthusiasm? I do need to get with Phelan sometime soon so I can get my baked goods. I have been anticipating her homemade cinnamon rolls for awhile. Even though I have about 20 boxes of unopened Girl Scout cookies in my kitchen, nothing beats the taste of a freshly baked cinnamon roll.

Okay, enough for tonight. It's off to work I go tomorrow. Oh, and the kid is doing well. Thanks for all of your kind words. And Andrew - Thanks for commenting. I miss you!

Night!
