More Bad News in 2015
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 in 2015
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 in 2015
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 in 2015
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...
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...
Thinking About The Upcoming Trip in 2015
Still on pins and needles waiting to see what the state says about Cori’s job… frustrating, to say the least. Cori said if the company still keeps him, he will request to not work with this kid,...
More Stress... in 2015
So… Cori may lose his job because the kid he watches is an ass. I know, I know, the kid has severe ADHD and apparently has a tiny bit of mental retardation… but he slaps his grandmother, kicks Co...
Planning Another Home Trip in 2015
I am so sick of snow. They can’t plow worth crap here in Cincinnati. They were actually pretty good about it in DC. Cori says they were also good about it in Minneapolis (I suppose they have t...
Annoyances in 2015
Don’t get me wrong. I love working at Sephora. But there are two things that annoy me: 1) I’m getting super bored at cashwrap. They were training us towards the end of January and it seems the...
Update on Evie in 2015
There was other stuff I wanted to write, but this one has been on my mind. Evie has to have her left eye removed :( And they are still trying to treat the right eye to save her sight in that one...
Poor Evie :( in 2015
Went over to Amanda’s today to continue Orphan Black and have pizza. I also brought her a cute Korean peach lip balm that we started carrying at Sephora, and I only knew of the brand because dad...
Work and Love in 2015
The overnight shift was actually kind of fun, though I wouldn’t want to do it more than once a week. It’s sort of nice to be in the store without customers, and Amanda is a hoot to work with. I...
I have an overnight shift today. Leaving in about an hour. When I said I was willing to do shipment, I didn’t think it meant overnight ! Next week is the same, too. Granted, I don’t have kids...
I checked my balance left on my car loan (which was about 39 months into the 60 month loan)… And it was $0.00 I called mom before going to work. She said dad decided to pay off my car and they w...
I’ve been beyond exhausted. I know I wanted the extra hours but I’ve basically worked every day for 6 days plus tomorrow and Sunday, which will make 8. I’m not complaining; just stating that I’...
Lovely Cincinnati... in 2015
[http://abcnews.go.com/US/dead-highway-overpass-collapse-cincinnati/story?id=28337456] I can see this overpass from the apartment, and it’s at the exit I use every day for coming home from work. ...
Good News !! in 2015
They hired me onto the permanent staff at Sephora ! She only waited about two hours after my interview on Wednesday to tell me the news :) I really wish a PT-Benefits position would open up. That...
Merry Xmas & Happy 2015 in 2014
I was actually going to explain my encounter with literally the nastiest, meanest, most psychotic woman I have ever met (not involving work, maybe I will explain the situation in a separate entry...
Staying at Sephora ?! in 2014
A bit tired and Cori should be home soon and dinner’s waiting for him (and me). I am so sick of exploding butter in the microwave. I must not be doing it right. I had to clean the microwave 3 T...
Back From VA in 2014
So… I ended up getting someone to cover my shift tonight so I could stay an extra day with mom and dad (well, mom mostly but dad came back last night so that’s why I stayed an extra day). That a...
Going Back to Virginia in 2014
So I have Monday through Thursday off, and Cori is done with school save for a paper due on Monday. So we decided that, if the weather is “okay” (though I still shudder at the thought of having ...
Happy Thanksgiving in 2014
Happy Thanksgiving, loves. I have to be at work in less than 12 hours grumble grumble At least I didn’t have to be there NOW. Work at Sephora is going well, regardless. I like it there. I reall...
Feeling quite homesick the last day or two after realizing I had a few days off consecutively which meant I could’ve gone back to Virginia for even just a couple days this week. I guess I didn’t...
So far, Sephora isn’t giving me many hours. It makes a certain amount of sense; though I assumed since I had OPEN AVAILABILITY (something retail people practically crap themselves for) I would m...
Ok.... Now I’m starting to worry about finances :(
