Workweek

Blogmeet

I guess I’ll leave this on top for a couple of days. Directions and whatnot are down below. 

This week has crept up on me. I started my vacation this morning (Wednesday) and while I had to go into one of my stores for a bit it was a quick visit and now I’m done until next Wednesday morning. Too fucking soon if you ask me.
The reason I took my vacation this week is for two reasons. One, the kids are out of school Monday for fall break and the other, the Helen blogmeet. Yep, it’s Blogtoberfest again. Haven’t heard much carrying on about it this year. I’m looking forward to a restful weekend up in the Mountains. Heck, I don’t even know who all’s coming this time.
As in past years we are staying at the Chalet Kristy right on the banks of the Chattahoochee. It’s a blast. Most of the folks roll in Friday evening or Saturday but a couple of us I know will be up there Thursday evening. By about 6pm I should be sipping a frosty beverage at The Troll if anyone wants to get together.
Directions and some phone numbers are under the fold.

New Site Theme is Mostly Finished

It’s been another pretty long weekend. I was hoping for a lazy day at work since all of my managers were working but no such luck. I ended up at least working in the one closest to my house so I shot out of there a bit early and picked up my prescriptions before coming home. Other than that it has been a very quiet week. I have spent the great majority of my time writing about that missing little girl Caylee Anthony and updating my posts on her and her freakish family.

I also spent a bit of time redoing the site. There is still quite a bit of work to do but I like the way it is starting to come together. Any opinions? They are certainly most welcome. In the end I will do whatever I want but it’s always nice to get some feedback from people.

That’s about it for tonight. It’s been after midnight the last couple of nights before I hit the sack so I am going to try and get an extra hours sleep. I’m sure the girls I will be working with tomorrow will appreciate it…

Time For A Haircut…

This was my weekend off and it was a pretty restful one as well. I didn’t get out of bed until after nine yesterday morning and after working in the yard for a while I ended up taking a pretty long nap as well. Very nice. I haven’t had two days off in the same week since out barbecue back in the middle of July. I only have to work three days this week and then will end up being off on Thursday as well. Normally I would be off next Sunday but since the boss is going on his ten day vacation I have to work. The good thing is that I will have a manager trainee with me most of the week and all of my managers are working Sunday so I will shoot out of there pretty early.

I posted a while back that I had sent in my application for advancement last month. My area vice president finally received the stuff from corporate and he is supposed to be coming out to interview me later this week. I’m crossing my fingers. If I can get on the promotable list it might only mean a four or five month wait as long as I am willing to commute. I had the wife trim my hair a little while ago in preparation for the interview. The last couple of years I have kept it shaved but for some reason I have let it grow out a bit lately. It was getting a bit shaggy around the ears and back so she fixed me right up.
