Work/Registration/Getting my Drivers License....

Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't written in a while, but I have been SUPER busy with work. Today was my only day off this week & it was filled going to Camden to pay my taxes, and to pay for school. Michaels gave me 20 hours this week, and Rue 21 had given me 21. So it was quite hectic, but I was able to push through =)

Next week my parents go on vacation to New York. I work at Michaels on Sunday & the rest of the week except for Monday I work @ Rue. I'm getting used to Rue. I think I've been doing alright.

I also registered for my Biology 210 class today. This is THE LAST TIME I'm allowed to take it before I'm NOT excepted into the Nursing Program Summer Semester of 2012. =( So I have to make absolutely sure that I pass this time! I have Mondays and Wednesday classes 11:30-2:15. I get to tell Rue Saturday what my schedule is, and that on Mondays and Wednesdays I can work at 2:30-Close if they want me to. The campus isn't very far from Rue, so it won't take me but 5 minutes to get there.

I'm going to be going for my Drivers License really soon!!! =) I want to take it a couple days before I start school! =) I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I get sooo nervous when I'm behind the wheel, even though it has been 6 years since my car accident. I'm sure I'll do okay. I hope.

Well this is all for today!!!

Working....

Hello all! =)

Today is one of my days off this week, so I felt like writing, while watching Teen Mom 2 on Netflix.
Christopher has been given his final baba & laid down for the night. I'm still really tired from yesterday!!! Yesterday I worked 7am-2pm at Michaels. And then I worked 4pm-8:30pm at Rue 21. I have been working for Rue 21 almost 3 weeks! I closed by myself for the first time last Tuesday, but this Wednesday I will be opening by myself for the first time. I'm a little nervous because 1) It's literally BY MYSELF until we open. & 2) I didn't have much training experience opening. I guess because there isn't much that needs to be done when you open. I'm hoping that by tomorrow evening I have my own code for the alarm, because I haven't gotten one yet =( But I do have my own keys =) I get paid this Friday!!! =) YAY! heehee.

Well this is all for today I guess.
Night!!!

Legos & RueVisuals

Hello!

I figured on my day off I would write a little bit. 

Here is a picture of Christopher today. We brought out the Legos we bought him for Christmas because he finally can play with them. He was having a ball! =)

So.. I have spent the past 5 days (with some days off in between) working at Rue 21. So far I really like it. The atmosphere is really lax.  Last night we did a RueVisual-- which is where we change the store around. I had some difficulties with my wall. I'm usually pretty good at it-- however; almost NONE of the merchandise was out that had to be put up there, and then almost 50% of it was markdowns-- which can't go on a wall at all. I finally got home around 11:15pm last night. I was SOOO tired this morning when Christopher woke up & was sitting on the bed.

Well this is all for today! Just wanted to share my experiences with you guys!!!

Good Afternoon Readers.

Today.... has been a day where I've been tired & cranky, my son has the sniffles, my son is also getting into everything & anything, my hubby is off to work, and I'm... CLEANING. I hate cleaning. I wish we had a maid. Actually I wish I could be rich & famous and have a maid. But it'll never happen.. so therefore I'm cleaning.
Laundry. Dishes. Vacuuming. -- Just to name a few.

I've also started @ Rue 21. Tomorrow night I get to experience closing for the first time with the company. I'm looking forward to it. This is all for today.
