As I emerge

It's been over ten days since I last posted and I apologize to those of you who come here everyday just waiting for me to enlighten you with my amazing blogs (not.) Seriously though, I just haven't been in the posting mood lately. I've hardly gotten on and those few times that I did get on, I was too busy with other stuff to post a blog. Well, I finally found some time to sit here and catch you guys up with some things.

First off, school for us starts the Wednesday after Labor Day (Steph hates me for that, haha.) We also have to wear uniforms this year. Either a khaki or navy skirt with either a red, navy, green, gold, or black polo shirt. I guess we have a pretty good color variety when it comes to the shirts, but I still hate uniforms. And it had to be my senior year when they decide for us to wear them too... oh well! Speaking of my senior status, I still haven't gotten my class ring back from being resized! It's been sent off for about a month and a half and it still isn't back. I'm beginning to forget what the thing looks like. We've called a couple of times and they've said that it just hasn't made it back in yet, but I think I might go up there and ask in person sometime today.

Now moving on to work... Yesterday, Mrs. Jeanne got the idea to clean out the entire back room (and if you've been back there with all the ovens and fryers and smokers, then you know that it's no small task!) And the thing of it is, she chose me to do it all by myself by Sunday! Yesterday I went in at 4:00, or a little before, and got started on it. Thankfully, Emma Lou helped me, A LOT! We moved all of the tables, donut things, fryers and all of that mess out of the way and got on our hands and knees and literally scraped the floor for at least 45 minutes. After scraping that, we swept and mopped that up and then scrubbed down the walls with 409, which took forever. And did I forget to mention that this room hasn't been cleaned like this in about 10 years? (It looks like it anyway.) Emma went in early this morning to do cakes, so it'll just be me, Stephanie, and Ms. Lori tonight. Guess I'm on my own this time! Don't get me wrong, they would help if they could, but there are a million other things that have to get done besides that.

While I'm thinking about Steph, I went to Wal-Mart the other night and bought some glass chalk. Yesterday when I got to work, as I was walking in I wrote on Steph's back window. I was going to write on all of the side windows too, but it had just finished raining and was still sort of sprinkling so the windows were wet, and of course it didn't work. I hear that she has some glass chalk now too, so I'm scared to know what's gonna happen. That girl is pretty crazy, so you never know... She is becoming a very good friend of mine, considering the fact that her personality is almost just like mine. She's one of those that I play fight with all the time and can be sarcastic with without her getting upset over any of it. The thing is, she is most of the time the one starting it all, haha.

Tomorrow is Paige's 2nd birthday and she is having a party today, which unfortunately I won't be going to because I have to go into work at 3:30-8:00 (or later) and the party starts at 6:30. That stinks. But thankfully, I'm off tomorrow!

Well, as of right now that's all that I have to say. I'll tell you right now that I won't be able to post everyday, but I'll post whenever I can, so keep checking!
