Another Miracle!

I don't know what is going on lately. But another miracle happened.

I had a snow day yesterday.

In the 4 years I have been at this company, I have never gotten a snow day. And it wasn't just me, the whole office was closed. I still am shocked.

And you know what's even cooler? Oh that's right, I only have to work 3 days this week! That's a total of 24 hours. I can handle that, right??

I guess we will see, so stay tuned my bloves :)

Ho Ho Ho!

A little Christmas love from your favorite Grinch :)

The Christmas Miracle

A Christmas miracle has happened. For the first time in 4 years, I will not have to work on Christmas Eve. And it's not even that I'm just some lucky girl that got the day off, the whole office is closed!!

Unlike most normal offices, my work loves to stay open for the Christmas Eve holiday. And they love us so much, they let us come right back to work the day after Christmas.

Luckily due to some Santa magic, Christmas has fallen on a Saturday, allowing me to get the Friday off before it. I'm not really sure how why this happens, especially since we don't get the day after Christmas off, but it doesn't matter. All I know is that not only can I enjoy my Christmas Eve, I can drink that 5th glass of eggnog on Christmas without a care in the world. Oh weekend Christmas, you may be my favorite of them all!

But WAIT! There's moooooooore!

For the first time in 4 years, I get the 31st off! And again, not because of my vacation hours, but due to the brilliance of January 1st being a Saturday! That means I have two 4-day weeks in a row!

While many of you probably have a 3 day week, or normally always get the 24th and 31st off, I am jealous. But I can't even begin to describe my happiness on just having these two days off!


For all of you that work in retail, I'm sorry, and I hope you do get some much deserved time off, but right now... I need to brag ;)

Here Comes The Sun

It's cold. It's really cold. I come into work all bundled up and immediately turn on my controversy causing space heater. (Really... is it THAT big of a deal that I have one? It's not like I leave in plugged in...nothing bad can happen!) Any who, with all the cold air that comes in when everyone enters and leaves the building, one would think that seeing the sun and having it shine through the lobby windows would be a fantastic sight.

WRONG.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a born beach bum. I spend every moment that I'm not working being outside in the sun. In the summer I'll go outside in the 90+ degree weather for my lunch break just to bask in the sun. I love it. So why can't I love the sun beating down on me during the cold winter months? Oh that's right, this is why: See that bright ball of fire up there? Oh yeah, that's the sun...shining directly in my eyes. Starting in November, it starts to creep through the windows and be on my chest. Slowly as the sun decides to change positions, it creeps up directly into my face. It gets so bad that I literally can't even see my computer screen in front of me. People joke that I should start wearing sunglasses.

Ha-Ha.

How about you stop being so cheap and buy some shades to cover those windows up!??

I know, I'm a complainer, but honestly, it's right in my eyes!



I'll work on getting a photo. Until then, this gem will have to do. That is literally how I feel.

Now if this was my boss, or even the CEO, this little "problem" would be gone faster than ever. Why am I not that important??

Guess until it's fixed, or until February rolls around and the sun decides to change positions again, I'll just start working on my tan ;)

Don't Worry, Be Happy

I'm glad this week is over. It's been a crazy busy week with phones off the hook, my boss assigning me more projects and having 2 disastrous lunch orders to deal with.

That being said, today I stand by the statement that it really is the small things in life that make me happy. Wednesday's and Thursday's lunch orders were beyond out of control (i.e. over 2 hours late, and when it finally showed up, everything was wrong...). So today when everything ran smoothly I was so thankful.

As I'm pulling out everyone's food, I came across Eileen's Greek salad with tuna. I immediately started laughing and had to take a picture:



How can that not make you smile?? Happy Friday everyone! :)
