Subject: SURPRISE...Another Update!

Just another drive by update from the resident ghost. Yes I know they are few and far between....my updates...not the ghosts. I am sure there are others like me out there...somewhere.
I don't know what's happened to my drive to keep my journal. I've lost it somewhere amid the numerous demands I've placed on myself. Yes, I place them there. People can't demand things of you if you don't let them right? Even work is a self inflicted demand. I could quit and poof...no more demand but then the weight of being jobless would sink on me like a shroud and you all would be cursing the day when I turned back to my journal as a forum to lament and wallow in my wretched self pity. I think you'd rather prefer me to stay the resident ghost than to have to listen to any more of that whiney crap right?
Work...well....here's the basic run down list of how that's going. I survived Christmas....barely. Don't ask me how I survived as I am sure it was completely due to divine intervention and completely out of my hands. I can't take credit for my survival, only give thanks to who ever or whatever had pity of my wretched soul. Now here it is March and my former manager retired. Yep, she served Radio Shack for 18 years and finally retired. Our new manager, male, is going to be alright though...I think. He's been there about 3 weeks now. Some others dislike him but I'm thankful that finally I have a manager that actually CARES that I still can't sell Cell Phones. Yeah...he's a slave driver but when I finally start making money from selling those things...I'll be praying at the alter of his greatness religiously!
Poor guy though...he's driving two hours just to get to work every day. He was moved into our store but lives in Atlanta. Yeah...he'll be moving soon I think. That drive would get old quick! Least for me it would.
Ummmmm I finally had Christmas with my sister. It was in January but I was able to take her presents down to her. It wasn't a good trip since her hubby and I got into it but least her presents were delivered. Her hubby however has ruined any chance of me ever returning there to ever spend the night again. My choice not to..not theirs. I will not be subjected to his stupidity or having to leave my sisters house at nearly 2 AM because of him. While it might be a mistake..it's one I wont over look again. He drinks and becomes stupid when he does. Just because she puts up with it doesn't mean I have to. Yeah...love my sister to death but I could do without her hubby. He's a good man when he's not drinking but some things I just don't forgive or forget easily. Enough on that subject.
My hubby bought me a new sectional sofa and some area rugs for Christmas. He asked me what I wanted and I told him I wanted new furniture. It looks good. I also got cell phones for us....we had to go with Verizon since the hubby gets a discount through them because of his job. Our next task? Getting a fence put up and stopping the neighbors from using our grass as a parking lot. They rip the grass up and make our yard look like a mud pit. The Jerks! We're hoping the fence will put a stop to that.
What am I doing today? My day off so I am washing clothes and trying to get a bit of work done in the house. The hubby and I are going out later, he's getting off at 3 so I guess I better wrap this up and get done with my house work. I hope to have another up date for you all soon. I miss you all and know that I am thinking of you.
And in honor of my most favorite holiday coming up...here's my all time favorite graphic. I think it's supposed to glitter but...well...I messed it up. Sorry Anna. Still love it though.
MUAH! *Kisses and Hugs*

You are busy, tis true, but if you can put out a update at least once a week you would make many of your devoted readers happy! :)
I miss you, but hope that you are doing well. You sound like it, from the way you are writing, so work must be doing you good!
Love and hugs,
