Good Thursday Morning!
Well I just woke up about 10 minutes ago and booted this bad boy up while I fixed my carnation instant breakfast, as usual, and gathered up my handful of pills to take. I am having a hard time on new meds...cannot seem to wake up the next day! I took 1/2 dose last night. Seems a little better this am! I am so thankful for electricity!!!! I have not heard a word from Missy...hope she is ok?! I wish Vicki was online though. She is one crazy woman! lol... I have alot of work to do for tomorrow...big Friday Night on the Square! I did not get to make everything I wanted to for it, but I did get 6 cakes done. I may try to do more tonight. The lady i work for has been a bit nasty about me being off. I had to go to the school yesterday for a conference over Jen...the girl staying with us. Nothing bad..just about her graduating a full year early and having enough credits. She was a bit pissy. I said something about even though I was home I could not work in the basement (where my work room is) due to no light. I was not going to waste what batteries or candles I had left to do them. She made a remark about how I could have toted everything up there and worked on them there. Like I would have gotten anything done. SHe is at me every five minutes to do something for her and the store. today I am doing window displays. She does not pay me to do this crap...just the legal part of the office. Everything just rubbed me the wrong way yesterday. I am pushing for a cheery today and Becka has started it off with the cake pic on Dawn's one year anniversary post...check it out if you haven't already! its hilarious! I would love to do that some days! I see the weather is beautiful again...cool nights and warm days! Gotta love fall! I know I do! I have to call Huber's today as well to confirm the headcount...now if I can find it...J/k I have it and it is 39 people so I am setting the reservation for forty. Why it has to be a definite headcount is beyond me...but I figure maybe someone will have a straggler they bring with them. So with that I am outta here and getting ready for the hell hole! Catch ya tonight....
Old Settler's Day here in Salem. Its a big thing once a year and they close off the square and have the music, auction, vendors, food etc...all around the courthouse grounds. It is fun...lots of people come out of the woodwork and this is sometimes the only time you get to see them. Its almost like a day off for the whole town and you can eat and talk and shop! I make cakes..towels, diapers, blanket, etc...and decorate them. I am trying to get a site up for them...no time really to sit and do it yet! She asks me to do the windows since every time I do she gets more and more people into the store and more sales with them. I love to do them, I just don't like to do them when she is there because she follows me like a puppy. She is one of those people that are always oh be careful...watch out...oh did that break....is that safe like that..get the picture?! She is also like Barbie....always dressed to the nines and not a hair out of place. When something happens she giggles like a little girl and plays the damsel in distress (or dumb blonde) I get frustrated. To me she makes women look the way most men perceive women...dumb and incompetent. Yet here most of of us are trying to help provide for families and take care of them with or without a spouse/partner and show women are equal to men. She is like a big contradiction. Everyone was willing to help her in the store, but they all walked out on it because they were not getting anything from it. She lets me put my cakes and other items in there on consignment and I get all the money for them in exchange for my help. Dale thinks I run the store. I guess I do during events like old settler's day, but she has never worked retail and is clueless with a cash register. I recruited a friend of mine to help at the last one and everytime she asked kathy a question, she would say she did not klnow and to ask me. I should not be as involved as I am in this business and when I try to teach her stuff she play the naive card and I get frustrated. I don't want to see her business fail, but she needs to be more involved with it. I am only suppose to be there to help with the legal office as a secretary. That is what the attorneys pay me to do. I just get frustrated and have to vent. Guess that is what I have done the last two days.
