Family politics kill me. Long Story Short. My brother is a big baby sometimes. Thanksgiving is being hosted in my sister's house and Christmas will be at his house. As for me and my spouse, we will be at my in law's. Why? Because I hate family politics.

My mother is coming down on December 4. I'm so excited and happy! And I just got her gift from Amazon that I ordered last week. And ...don't say anything...I got part of Lisy's gift...shhhhhh....dont tell her. lol Psych! lolol I swear I could just hear her inhale as if she'd gotten the biggest shock of her life. lol Did you honestly think I'd put your present up here? Really? Cause I wouldn't even tell you when I got it, which I don't have it yet btw. But don't worry there's still time and I could totally make it to the dollar store in time...lolol

Why I think college should be free. That way everyone could get an education and not have to work for a retail store. As you all know I started my part time job. I hate it. OMG. The only way to get hours in this place is to get ppl to sign up for their credit card. I got 1 person to sign up yesterday and since I also got them to buy the insurance I get an extra $3 in my check. woo hoo. Child, let me tell you that my feet are still hurting!! I had the idea to wear my new wedges! I wanted to break them in. Well after 8 hours in them, they broke ME! lol I swear I worked hard yesterday. I worked so hard that I have a new respect for people that work in retail. And I also have a disdain for them. I'M a snob. I truly am. I'm so grateful that I went to school and got an education because I am totally not meant for retail. I got another 2 weeks and then I'm going to quit. lol I just want my 31% discount and then I'm out! I hate CREDIT CARDS. Why? Because I'm a compulsive shopper. So the last thing that I need is more debt. So I don't think that they are going to like me very much! I'm not going to get the hours because I'm not aggressive that way. HOWEVER, I am a good sales person. I did manage to talk a few people into buying clothes that I'm sure they deserved. So I don't feel guilty about it. One lady even told the manager that if it weren't for me that they wouldn't have bought anything at all. However, none of that matters because they are looking for credit card apps. On my very first day I was expected to get 2 of them. Jeez Louise! Talk about pressure. And I realized that the manager gave me the bulk of the work! The other new hire got to look petty and walk around the store just folding stuff. I got all the stinking returns, the HUGE round table of panties fanned out like napkins, the shoes, stockings, lingerie and the discount section. I was ticked off. And then I had to vacuum the entire back section including the register. And then the mgr showed me how to properly hang the jeans. I did that, but she went into my section and saw one that wasn't put right and said "you STILL haven't learned". I was like that was like that already. How frigging hard is it to hang jeans? Give me a break. Then the other new hire scored the first cc app. And she came over and was like oh I am not trying to take over or tell you what to do....I cut her short. I said girl this is a part time job for me...just Christmas money. So I don't care. They could fire me and I wouldn't care. And walked away. To let her teeny bopper butt know that I went to school and got my degree. I'm there for holiday money not for a lifetime. Yeah I'm a snob. So what? I'm a snob, but I worked really hard and I did everything I was suppose to do!

Laundry. Tonite is laundry nite. I hate laundry nite. Cause I have alot of it. Maybe I can convince my husband to help me tomorrow. I just want to go to my Bible study and call it a night. Yeah that's what I'll do. I'll do the dreaded laundry tomorrow. Now to find clothes to wear! Tomorrow is jeans/sweater day. Cause I have nothing but dresses left that are clean and its too cold to put a dress on. So I'll go dressed down instead. lol

Wednesday. Im off on Wednesday. I have loads of plans! The first and most impoart is going to the meadowland fleamarket. I love a good fleamarket. It's open on Wednesdays from 9 to 3 and on Saturdays from 9 to 5. You can find stuff from the 20's up to the present day. I got a great Coach purse for $20 bucks! I called Lisy just to make her drool! lol Take a ride and go over there. You wont regret it. http://www.meadowlandsfleamarket.com/index.htm
