No Title Just Read It and See What I Am Yapping About Now!

So did that title get you curious?

I am definately almost possibly close to near done with all my Christmas preparations. 

I have finished shopping!!!!!!!!! 

I have wrapped half of the presents

I have put up my Christmas tree.  Lucky for Rick I didn't have to decorate his hat stand as threatened.

Now all I have to do is finish wrapping presents and clean this house.  My two most favorite things to do. NOT!!!

I have to go to work today from 1:45 to 7:45

Yesterday at work one of the managers was in a cranky mood.  He was yelling at everyone and making the baggers cry by screaming at them.  I think if you are having a bad day you should keep it to yourself and not make oithers around you miserable!

This one poor little bagger was so shook up that she had a hard time doing her job afterward.  She is the type that is a perfectionist and gets really upset if someone gets on to her.

She really didn't do anything wrong as far as I could see.  She was my bagger and she was doing a great job keeping up with me.  She is still in high school and very mature for her age.

I tried to tell her not to worry about it because from the looks of it he was yelling at everyone.

He even yelled at me when after 4 hours of non stop checking my lane was empty for a second and he told me to annouce that my lanewas open no lines no waiting.

This after he forgot to give me my break.

I hope he is off today, or in a better mood.

For some of these kids this is their first job, give them a break.

So how is everyone else doing on their Christmas management?

Everyone seems busy because I have not had many alerts this morning.

I hope everyone is well and happy!

I am feeling great right now!!!! 

My husband called from his job working out of town and said that he has a cold.  I hope he gets better by Christmas time.

We will be going to Austin for Christmas for a few days so I will not be on here.  Don't worry about me.  I will be back soon and back to chat.  We leave Christmas Eve night.

Also I have to pack and get all the presents together to take.

We will go to my parents and spend some time Christmas Eve with my mom and dad and my sister and her family.  Also my little sisters kids will be there with their dad and his new wife.  I am not sure if her son will be there or not.  I am bringing him a present too.

At work we are having a contest to see which checker can sell the most M & M's the winner gets $100!!! I am trying like crazy to sell M & M's to every customer.  Most people say yes!!! I hope I win!!! Most checkers don't even ask!

I don't mind asking my customers if they want to buy chocolate but I hate that we have to aske them if they want ice or cigarettes.  Alot of people are offended when you ask them if they want cigarettes...do I look like I smoke?  Do I have yellow teeth or something etc.

I will be here until then. 

Have a great day and may God Bless You All!
