Best Friend's New Baby!

Heather and Chase’s son was born today ! I almost laughed my butt off because Amanda (my other best friend; we are a group of 3) was hoping so much the little guy would be a Saggitarius like she ...

Thanksgiving Update

So Zane (Cori’s brother) wasn’t able to make it out for Thanksgiving (I personally think he waited until the last second and prices were too high) and told us some story about how his boss got fi...

Unsympathetic

Have actually been working.... well.... not a lot, but quite a bit more than I had been. Went to King’s Island the day before Halloween with Amanda… had a REALLY good time. Rides weren’t as crow...

Losing

The meeting with my current (but now former) counselor wasn’t too bad. It was nice to have Cori with me for support. I’ve been sort of an emotional wreck lately, though. I don’t know how Cori s...

Baby Shower & Parents !

Haven’t written since going to TN (Fayetteville, near the Alabama border) for Heather’s baby shower. The drive down was a bit hellacious–I had just gotten a flu shot the night before we left (we...

Nightmares

Did the Air Force 10K a couple weekends ago. Jogged some, walked some, got done in just less than an hour and a half (not bad, not good). Amanda was with me–it was hard but it was fun. Thought...

Jealousy in Happiness

Catie got engaged !!! Very happy for her; I know she’s had it rough in relationships. I met her boyfriend once at her sister’s wedding in July and he didn’t even talk to me, but from what Mel s...

Just A Short Word

Seems weird to think that kids who are starting high school now may have only been an infant when 9/11 happened. Honestly, although I was 14 and other stuff was affecting me at the time (I had b...

Life Never Gets Better

So I’m really upset with work. I couldn’t go to the cast meeting (which was last Sunday morning) and apparently Melissa (the only supervisor I generally dislike working with) announced that she w...

Home

Every time I have come back home since moving, it makes me loathe to go back to Cincinnati, and I never feel like I’ve been spending enough time with my mom. Even though today we spent 8 hours at...

F***

Sephora cancelled my shift today. This is what I mean. I love working there, but it’s so damn unpredictable. I had a 5 hour shift, with an extra two hours on call, and I didn’t even get the bas...


Hopefully, if my request off goes through, Cori and I will have a long and much-needed vacation from Saturday the 15th-Saturday the 22nd. We will be going back to Virginia. I miss it. I was tel...

A Different Turn

So I have been having terrible cramps yesterday and today and I really didn’t want to shuffle Cori to and from class today (it’s hot and I had to park really far away because they are tearing up ...

The Tension Is High...

http://m.dailykos.com/stories/1406408 Although I am obviously concerned about what may happen, I think it depends largely on what happens to the cop… If the video is as bad as they say, and they ...

A New AC !

Mom sprung for a window AC for me and Cori. The hose from the portable AC unattached overnight last week and leaked all over the new dresser and the floor. We found something called a “low-prof...

Been Almost A Month...

Hours at Sephora are still super up and down. Sigh. I’ve been able to catch an extra shift here and there, but generally I only get scheduled for about 12 hours. Plus there is a new girl in sk...


First off, I missed an extra shift today. I got called at 8:10 in the morning but I have a do not disturb setting until 8:15, so I woke up when Cori woke up (at 8:15) and called back around 8:18...


There’s quite a bit I would actually love to write about, but I’m just feeling hesitant to say anything… Missing my parents. They left Friday morning (did I write after they left ? I must have)...


Kind of a mixed bag of feelings here. On the one hand, my hours are up and down like nobody’s business. Only 11 scheduled hours this week, but I was able to pick up an extra 7 (8 with an hour m...

Better News

I got sent home from work a bit early. We were super busy but all the sales were small, so we weren’t making our goals. Ugh. Ashley asked for volunteers to go home early and a couple did (I di...

More Bad News

Was going to write something else. Work is going well, but I’m tired because we’re having a sale (which is rare at Sephora but it means lots of people) and I haven’t been sleeping much the past 2...

Counseling

There was a new Marilyn Manson album released in January and I only just found it now. I’m so behind… I used to keep up on that stuff so well. I am actually working 30 hours next week… Not compl...

Cori's Work

Work has been going well. I am finally making the slow transition into skincare. First day was Saturday and I didn’t get overwhelmed… which impressed everyone since it was also the day before E...

Engaging Conversation

I’m in bed right now and writing on a mobile, so this may not be a long entry. We left to go back home to Virginia on Monday the 16th and came back Sunday the 21st. Could not have asked for bett...

Ughhhhh

So I’m taking a break from rushing around trying to get things in order before we go back to see my family tomorrow. Long drive… about 9 hours. I love driving but sheesh. So I worked from about...
