The past few weeks have been interesting. While I can't remember every detail, (and typing all that is very time consuming), it's definitely had its ups and downs.
I took my first 11 day vacation two weeks ago. I had a blast; I saw friends I haven't seen in a very long time, spent most of that time *not* at the house, got drunk a few times, went on a head-hunt for assholes who have nothing else better to do than make other people's lives a living hell (i.e.: mine-hence the drinking), and just had a blast. Was really not looking forward to going back to work last weekend, but I don't know why I worried; I worked maybe a day and half of my normal 3-day work week. Saturday I left early, and Sunday I don't know why I even bothered to even go to work, because I left at 9 in the morning. That's crazy, because some of my friends stayed as late as 4, yet, the bosses were in such a hurry to 'get people out as early as possible.' The warehouse can really be a strange place sometimes...
So that brings me to vacation part 2. This one is going by super fast..there's no stopping it! As I type this, I am in Cypress, TX. Yeah. A little ways away from home. I am visiting my sister and my now three nephews (and maybe another adopted niece!). My newest niece and nephew are very fun to be around, and nice kids. They know how to have fun (no, not that kind of fun..they are only 12 and 9, respectively). My family keeps growing! :D
But that's not the only reason I find myself so far from home. My 10-year high school reunion is this Saturday. I'm really excited to see some old faces again. The even is being held out near Katy. I am nervous, but ready to mingle with my old classmates, and see where our lives have taken us in 10 years.
And speaking of the future, mine is not certain right now job-wise. I put in for a position over the weekend, and I've got my fingers (and toes) crossed that I get it. I NEED to get out of the un-loading position. It's getting bad, and my stress levels just can't handle it anymore. I know I can do this job. It's a totally different schedule than what I'm on now, but I can adjust no problem. Cross your fingers for me...I am praying and trying to keep positive, although I'm not trying to put all my eggs in one basket. I can still go back to the store, but with our peak season literally right around the corner, I really want to stay, and I'll fight to the death. You want to get rid of me? You'll have to drag me out, kicking and screaming. I deserve this chance. Please God let me have this chance.
Meanwhile, I'm going to stay on top of it, and enjoy my last vacation of this year. I'll keep you updated. :) Til' then, it's late, I'm going to bed. Peace. :D
