Well, it’s been quite a while since I’ve posted anything. I keep meaning to get on the site and tell everyone about my goingson, but then something or someone comes up and I get side tracked. Looking back on my last post, I can tell you that I feel like a lot has changed since that date. How? and Why? you might ask, well, I’ll do my best to explain with this post!

First of all, I know someone out there has been praying for me lately and I’d like to say “THANKS!!” and You’re a little sneak! :P Over the last month I’ve noticed that work has been getting increasingly easier to handle. Let me explain…

I have atleast one very challenging coworker that I have to deal with every single solitary day. In the past, I posted a blog about how we usually get along. Well, after talking to my notveryhelpful and totallyworthlessboss I realized that this same coworker was going to continue to get away with everything and that nothing was going to change. Since having that epiphany, I’ve done my absolute best to abstain from concentrating on every little thing she does that annoys the CRAP out of me. It’s been hard, but slowly I’m adjusting.

Since I’ve been doing my absolute best not to focus on her I’ve had more time to focus on the other people I work with. Guess what?! Everyone I work with is a slacker! At some point or another each and every person I work with, not excluding myself, is chatting with a coworker (and not working), surfing the internet, taking a long break, gossiping, humming or whistling, etc, etc…

For those of you who know me, you know I like rules, I like to follow rule and I like to enforce rules. I like to please my superiors, whether it’s my boss or my parents, by setting a good example. I think that’s what bugs the crap outta me about my problem coworker. She is the exact opposite. She thinks that the world owes her everything (she’s a DEMOCRAT, go fig) and why shouldn’t she do whatever she wants while she’s at work?! AHHHH!

But like I said…someone has been praying for me! Thank you Jesus! My job at work has gotten easier lately and little by little the tension between the two of us has dwindled to little if not anything at all. This past week was great. At one point, she even volutarily switched her radio over to my station (105.3)…that’s HUGE!

Okay, so besides that, this summer has been a blast. I’m so very unbelievable thankful to be out of retail! I had 4 long years at Freddy’s and I don’t miss it one bit. I still feel a bit wierd going into that store, but oh well. Each and every time I go in there I recognize fewer and fewer employees. It’s funny though, some of the people that I do recognize are new acquaintances, former Target employees that used to work with James.

Having a real job is awesome. Each Friday I clock out and look forward to a real weekend! During the summer it’s even better, cause you actually get to enjoy the weather! This September was awesome, the weekend of our Anniversary was just PERFECT!!!

Yep! James and I finally celebrated our 1 year anniversary. Can you believe it?! I can’t believe it went by so quick…seems just like yesterday. I am immensly happy, couldn’t have planned it better myself!

We went camping for our anniversary, at Mt. Rainier Nat’l Park. The weather was perfect, the air mattress didn’t have any leaks, the BLACK BEAR that wandered through the campground didn’t even see us….see what I mean by perfect?! This is so sweet, and pink, I’m making myself sick! Haha.

Oh yeah, did I mention that James sent me flowers, balloons, and a teddy bearĀ at work (ahhh), the first time that’s ever happened! And he bought me an IPOD Touch. Whoa! I was so not expecting that! It’s great little toy. I’m quite entertained by it on a regular basis.

Oh yeah, in case you’re wondering, I got him a new camera lense for his camera. He’s aspiring to become a professional photographer. Yipee!

Well, I guess lastly I’ll tell you about my trip yesterday. I got to spend some time with my Mom down in the Marysville area. We met at this cute little cafe in Sylvana and then went shopping at the new Lakewood Center and Seattle Outlets on the Rez. What a great time! We had fun, but were totally exhausted when the night was through.

For a shopping trip, I didn’t make out very well, I came home with two pairs of shoes and a clearance shirt from Lane Bryant. But then today, I went to Labels and came home with 2 new pairs of pants and a new purse…so over all, I did okay! :)

Oh my goodness…well I promise not to let so much time pass between now and my next blog. I’d love to hear back from anyone and everyone who reads this thing…sometimes I feel like I may be just talking to myself! Ha! Love you all!
