So I decided to go Black Friday Shopping today at walmart, and I don't think I WILL EVER be doing that again. WOW. I stood in line for almost an hour JUST to get the games I wanted, because there wasn't anyone in the electronics department helping with video games. Good thing is that once he got the 2 games I needed and brought them up to the cashier I only had about 5 people in front of me. So only had to wait about 5 minutes. If only someone would have been helping in the video games sooner, I probably would have finished everything in 15 minutes rather than an hour. But oh well I guess. It was nice to get a good deal, but I honestly think I'd rather pay full price than have to go through that again. I mean people kept getting in front of me, and I was not a happy camper. So I quit letting them. I let them know that this grumpy girl that got up at 4 and had to be to work at 7 did not want anyone cutting her when she was waiting ever so patiently in line, and people decided to be rude and get in front of me. NO NO NO I don't think so. If I have to wait then you have to wait, buddy! So they got the point that I wasn't too thrilled with them and they moved. And goodness gracious, how hard is it to make a LINE. Don't crowd, make a line! I guess since they didn't understand english, that might have something to do with it. Maybe next year I will end up going since I know what to expect. But not to this walmart, no way jose!
BTW, Thanksgiving was wonderful. :) Just Julia, Josh and I but that's okay. We had a great time together.
So back to Black Friday, I got to work at 6:40, went ahead and clocked in and cleaned up a bit, and didn't get off til 5 but it went by really fast so I actually enjoyed it. It wasn't even as busy as I was expecting and people weren't annoying or rude. That always makes it easier :)
Well I need to get to bed. Although it's only 7, it's been a long day and I have to get up at 4 and be to work at 6. Goodnight! :)

COLD :(
I hate having a cold :(
It's been a year since I've had one, maybe a little longer. And it's driving me nuts!
My nose burns like crazy from blowing it so much. It won't stop running, I have sneezed about a million times and my right eye keeps crying.
BUT, since I've been sick these last couple days I've managed to make it through work :) Which I'm very happy about because I need to work work work! lol Although a break would be nice, I just can't afford to miss any of my hours! You gotta do what you gotta do. If I were to only have missed one day, I guess it's not that bad but then that's less money to pay bills, and we gotta pay the bills :)
I know it's not good to be proud, but I must say that I am very proud of Josh and I because it has been 7 months since we've been in our own place and although at times it's a little tight, we have managed to do it all ourselves :) Haven't needed any help! It's a wonderful feeling! I remember at first we were worried that we wouldn't have enough money each month to get all the groceries we needed so we were thinking about food stamps, but came to find that everything is alright without them. Some people really need food stamps, and some people well, they're just lazy.
Soooooo.
I made that cajun chicken pasta I talked about in my last post and it was amazing! I'm going to make it again tonight! Josh is at work and won't be home til late tonight so dinner will be ready by the time he gets home :)

Not much going on, work as usual. We're starting to get even busier with the holidays approaching, which is nice because that means even more hours! :) Only negative thing is the store hours... uggghhhhhh after Thanksgiving, we'll be open from like 8 in the morning til midnight. So I'm just curious how my schedule will be with them needing me for cash office... I have a feeling I'm going to have lots of split shifts. Which I don't mind, but having to get up so early and then coming home and usually not being able to take naps... and then have to go back til midnight, NOT FUN! But oh well, money is money and you gotta do what you gotta do. Now, Christmas shopping, I have not even started and knowing Josh, he probably hasn't either. I still haven't decided what colors I want to decorate the tree :/ I might stick to what I did last year and just buy some extra little ornaments or something. They have really cute ones at Walmart that would match :) Well it's about time for me to cook dinner... I got a recipe online for Chili's cajun chicken pasta so we'll see how it turns out!!!
