my friday my way.

i woke up with visions of
waffles and big glasses of milk
dancing in my head.

got ready for my day
watched a bit of news
and headed to the breakfast room

the fact that it was texas shaped
only enhanced the flavor. :)
headed out to my class
the last in this series

said my good byes
and then jumped in
the rav4 and headed home.
i love that i am no longer
afraid to drive to other cities


all.by.my.self.

holy heck.

sorry i've been absent of late...
work seems to be throwing me for a loop
by the time i get home
all i want is a glass (okay, BOTTLE)
of wine and a good cream cheese bagel.
it seems the work load is the same
although there aren't many people
and deffinitely not enough TIME to do it all.
argh.

this morning i am turning it around
i've decided NOT to go in early
but to ENJOY the late morning start
at the bucks.



hooray for AT&T wifi.

trapped in a cubicle.

so.
two days off in a row
during the work-week...
not a good idea.

i am now trapped in my cubicle
for possibly the rest of the week
not including THURSDAY
which is my happy day this week
no work and no errands
make gloria a
VERY happy girl.

roxie's bff.

roxie had a play date today
while i was at work:

that's a newer scion XB
for those of you not in the know.
a gal i used to work with
transferred to AZ then
transferred back
and this is what she drives now
how cute is that??
i still love my girl more.
of course.
on a different note:
the honeycrisp is HUGE
this year:

that's like three servings
in one apple!!

happy friday, peeps!!

well well well

the long day wasn't so bad.
by 5 o clock i was going cross-eyed
at the sight of numbers
and i wanted to be at home
in my pajamas
on the big red couch

relaxing with a glass of wine...
but it wasn't so bad.
that being said
is it too early to think
i'm getting used to waking up early
and staying awake with a smile on my face?
i am known to scare small children and kittens
if i'm up too early without much coffee.
ha!

the swing of it.

i started a new position at work today.
i quite enjoy the mondaythrufriday of it
but all of this learning has me exhausted
by the time i switch to auto pilot
for the 40 minute ride home.

i'm told it will get better.
tomorrow is the long day.
8-7. yes. a 10 hour day.
i'm seeing a lot of coffee
in my future.

sally at work.

on saturday i took sally to work.
i figured i could take it easy
if i got her to take up some of the slack.

i had her process some paperwork


answer some phones


make some copies


then
i started to feel bad,
making her do everything
i should have been doing...
but
i suspect she had some fun, too.


p.s.
hello september!!
i am so happy you're here.

for blondie.

who missed our venture to cowboys.

next time, it'll be YOU up there!!

damn... i'm old.

went out with work girls last ight.
it was a co-worker's birthday
so we made a girl's night of it.

too bad i was the DD...
because i could have had more fun if
i had a malibu and diet coke. or four.

we rode the bull
(yes we did)
and i wanted to go again,
but apparently i enjoyed it more
than the others.
must be the redneck in me. :)

anyhow, it was fun to see everyone
out of work,
fun to get out late,
and come home even later.
but i'm too old to do that again
without alcohol!!

thanks, girls, for a fun night
even *if* this white-ish girl
can't dance without liquid courage!!

don't you remember you told me loved me baby?

my view in the break room.
it's cold in there.

i like my job.
i really do.
i like my manager
and my super!visors are great.

it's the paycheck that kills me.
i'm too old for this.
i don't think i'll be able to stay.
which makes me feel guilty every time
my super!visor discusses the
store re-do set for june.
(we're turning our gapbody into babygap/gapkids)

::sigh::
