So if you haven't noticed by now, my blog changes with my mood! I know-I know it's a lot.
But lately I am longing for the ocean. Probably because of the books I am reading and watching the travel channel a lot. We were so used to going up to Oregon every 6 mos or soo.. It's been almost a year. We went for my brother Mike's graduation from the Police Academy up there. I had a good talk with him on his birthday. It was kinda funny he was tellin me Austin is going to school camp like we did when we were kids. Shea and I went to "Mill Hollow" in Utah. I also went to girls camp here for many years. Fond childhood memories. I am glad Austin is getting to go. He goes for a whole week and he's in the 5th grade! When we did it we only did it for a few days I think.
Tomorrow - I am feeling a headache coming on and calling in sick to work. I told Luis a while back that I was leaving town, but I miss my 90days (when I can start sort of requesting time off, we aren't supposed to do it till April) so I have to take it as an occurance. Right now, I only have two so I am not worried. We are allowed 7 and 5 before we get 'in trouble'. I am not really worried. I can take sick time after Oct 15th. I am not sure how it will work after that. Speaking of which. Brandi is now my new supervisor. She used to sit by me, but now she's on the other side by Luis. So I am all alone in my cubicle, especially after 5pm. It's okay though I read a lot.
Except tonight, just because I was anxious to leave, we had NO calls from the time I got back from break at 6:15pm. Andrea asked me if I had any calls at 7:28 (they shut the phones off at 7:30) sure enough I get a lady and she wants to book a new group. She was mad about the deposit date. She said she'd call back in the morning. I booked the group for her and she said she'd call back to get the date changed. I was like okay whatever. I wasn't in the mood. Fortunately it only took me 10 mins.
We leave tomorrow for our camping trip. We spent this eveing making sure we had everything.
Plans have changed again, Christy, Herb and Janet are staying in a hotel. (don't get me started!)
and Alexis now isn't coming at all. Herb is waiting to get a new tire from his car (remember they got a flat on Sunday). The tire place didn't carry one so they are having it fdex it should be here tomorrow. Carl is getting off at noon and we are leaving around 1pm. It will be interesting. But I am looking forward to taking the dogs up there and spending time with Carl and cooking in our new dutch oven.
OH and my mom would be proud. Carl made me Ceasar Salad tonight and I really liked it! I HATE salad normally unless it's got ALL the fixings on it, with tons of ranch dressing. But I actually had two servings!
