TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG I am sooooooooooo glad it is Friday, this has been an extraordinarly tough week!

But the good thing is...I survived it! And I live to tell the tale~

I have pretty much already blogged about all the stuff that has gone on in the last week. So I really don't need to go over it again, in a new blog or in my head for that matter.

The last thing I need is another headache.

I want to have a wonderful weekend with my daughters, hopefully get to spend some time with a friend, maybe dress the girls up and take them somewhere outdoors that I can take some neat pictures of them...I want to spend some real quality time with them.

Anyone got any ideas? I am open to suggestions...lol

Gotta get back to work, maybe I will get to check in later.

Y'all have a wonderful Friday, Saturday and Sunday!!

My Brain!!!

I swear when I use my brain to much, it goes on explosive overload! I mean, seriously! Today was a long day at work, I suppose that we got alot accomplished, but I was there much later than normal. For some reason, the freaking enter button is not working....that really bites! Ok, well, anyway. So, I get home. I check my mail. There is this cute lil card in there....from a very special person. And the card is special as well, because it was MADE, just for me. With loving care, and a crafty hand, and alot of thought. It really meant alot. And I realllllllllllllly appreciated it and truthfully I needed it. In more ways that one, so, to you my Chelle. I thank you..... Geez I wish the freakin' enter button was working! But it isn't so, I move on...... I have been in an off and on again relationship with my sperm donor and his wife since I was 17. And lately there has been no communication between us, on purpose on my part, because my sperm donor can't deal with life unless it revolves around him. The unfortunate thing about it is, because of his actions, he has alienated not only himself, but his wife as well, from my daughters. The reason for that is, I can't have anything to do with her, without having something to do with him, and vice versa. I received a call from his wife late on the evening of my birthday. To which I hit the ignore button, sending her call to voicemail....she wished me a happy birthday. I wonder why she waited until that late at night to call, actually frankly I am surprised she called at all. Then lastnight as I was on the other side of my apartment putting clothes in the dryer, she evidently called me and I didn't hear the phone, so, again it went to voicemail. She asked me to call her and said that she would be up for a while. Of course, again, I ignored it. Tonight when I get home, I have an email from her in my inbox. It said, "Do you have plans for Kayla this Saturday? I would like to take her on a hike at the lake. I know Sierra doesn't like that kinda thing and wants to be with you. I wanted to ask you before I said anything to her." To which I replied, "Yes, I do have plans for both of the girls and myself as it is my weekend. So, no, don't say anything to her." Truthfully, I just don't get it. If you want to see your grandkids, why would you want to plan to do something with just one? Secondly, as far as I am concerned, neither one of them will have anything to do with my girls if I have anything to say about it....and as far as that goes, if I did allow them to see them, it would be both of them and not just one. I will not have one daughter be treated as less that the other because they are not....and I will not have one of my kids not feel as important as the other. I mean....GEEZ! Why should the child have to be the parent here??? Do you understand where I am coming from? All of this coupled with the fact that I think I had my hair pulled up way too tight, and using my brain to compute multiples of 5's playing domino's with my downstairs neighbor.........I believe helped cause a stress/tension/cluster/migraine headache. I popped an excedrin migraine 2 hours ago, and my head hasn't even started to ease up.... I really needed to get this out, if for nothing else than to release a little steam, and hopefully let my brain rest.....and now, I believe I am going to drag my happy ass out of this chair and put it to bed. 6am comes way to early if you are like me and can get to sleep ok, but just can't stay that way. Usually, I am looking at the clock, tossing and turning or getting up to pee every 30 mins to an hour....I truthfully don't believe I have had a full nights sleep in....hell I can't remember when! So, wish me luck! And maybe I will have a much better head on my shoulders in the morning!!!!!!

WHO???

OMG....lol, so I am at work today and I look up to see this guy walking past my counter. I look down...I thought, wait a minute. I recognize that nose! Look back up and OMG!

It was freakin HENRY WINKLER!!! I came around the counter and looked outside where he went, he got in a limo and off he went!! He didn't give anyone time to distract him.

But....Hello!! It was The FONZ! I don't know bout you but I grew up on Happy Days reruns....lol

Just thought it was worth blogging about!

Some Pic's During Summer '08

There was a week that I had the girls before school started, so, they went to work with me...They had fun. LoL Ok, I did too....just don't pay attn to the my double chin in the pics I am in...K? k!




Sweet face
Goofy Girl

Huh?
Not quite payin attn...
That's a lil bit betta! LoL
My Counter Heads....lol

Boo's hiding place... ;D

Monday's......ugh.....

Geez. Have I ever mentioned how I hate Monday's? No? Well guess what? I hate Monday's.

This is pretty much the busiest day at work, where, it pretty much takes my whole shift and sometimes longer to just be able to know if all reservations will be covered or not. That pretty much sucks. What sucks worse is when the car washer from the day before, has enough to cover at least the first flight of reservations.....but before you can even get the office good and open, you have more than double the cars reserved for the first flight in....OY!

Monday's are the big bad mofo that you don't wanna meet in a dark alley, where most of your reservations are for our "select" customers that what what we don't have to start with, you also get the bitchy whiney customers that want you to chrome toasty a vehicle straight out of your ass without so much as a noise....BLAH!

The good thing is I have hired another part time car washer for W-Sun, and that should be a major help. Now I just have to hire a part time rental agent to take my W-F evening shift and get that person trained. But I seriously think that I am going to train everyone I hire to work counter just in case the need arises. Especially since it is a small operation, there should be no reason why it can't be done.

Hopefully the rest of the week will run more smoothly. I can only hope.

I believe I am about to go back and edit some pics into some older posts so, y'all make sure and scroll down to see any!

Hope your Monday was much betta than mine!!!!

*Sigh*

Oh, what a lazy day.

I have done some laundry, picked up some of the house....and played jewel quest until my eyes crossed.

I have not, however stepped foot outside today. I haven't been answering the phone except for my daughters and my hubby's texts.

Lastnight my downstairs neighbor treated me and her best friend Debi to a birthday dinner at Carino's, Amanda was there too..Amanda is my neighbors daughter, who is 2 years older than I am. We acted goofy the whole dinner...yanno, the whole "MOM, she's lookin' at me, or tryin to touch me." bit. Ha Ha...we even had our chewing gum taken away for popping bubbles. We had a blast anyway....my 2 italian margarita's, and Amanda's 2 strawberry lemonades and Debi's 2 bellini's later, while stuffing ourselves with food. Of course we are all miserable by the time we made it to the van for the ride home...we actually took food home with us...ain't that some poo?

Normally I can drink way more than 2 of something before I am felling that "good". But oh boy was I loopy...I was trying to get out of the van when we got back when Amanda started tickling me. Bad thing to do, I was all, "STOP!!! Imma pee on myself!!" When I fell up against Barbara's seat and almost scared the crap outta her...I had to roll out of the vehicle.

Finally got upstairs and stumbled to the couch and put my birthday present, purse and other stuff down. Took me a few mins to remember where my clothes I wanted to wear to bed were. Then the headache (cough-hangover) started to kick in and I'm like....Imma layin to bed..ya, I couldn't talk right. I guess I fell asleep ok, but I didn't realize I kicked Greg in my sleep....LoL

Fergot to take an ibuprofen before bed, bad thing...I wouldn't have felt so bad this morning if I had. Oh well, live and learn. Eventually the hangover subsided and Greg left for work, not sure if he will be able to make it home in the next 3 weeks. I can't complain, he has been home more this year that any other. Which really has been nice.

All in all I guess the day was good. Tried to keep from doing anything stressful, not quite sure if totally succeeded at it, but.....

It's all good!
