Very odd day..

I've had the weirdest day, full of ups and downs..


First, I got my bonus, thankfully. My little $90 bonus. So I paid some bills, mailed off Robert's Xmas present and got some much needed groceries.


Then I get to work and there are two things going on. First, I have to take my teddy bear pins off my smock by Monday. We're not allowed to have personal pins anymore. Second, our dress code is changing yet again, and we will have to wear black pants and black shoes. Currently we can wear dark shoes, and black, blue, brown, or khaki pants, as long as they are in the docker style. SO yet again they're telling us what we can wear and when.


I went upstairs to do the books and spill my water all over me..Argh! And the tissues were locked up in a cabinet I don't have a key to.


Then later on my niece's babysitter came in to the store and offered to get me a christmas tree. She and my sister were going to cut theirs down. That's sooo sweet of her and I'm going to

Oh Jenn,

Hugs to you. the holidays make everything more complicated. And how awful that they are telling what to wear on your uniform. UGH.

On your christmas tree, y'know, the only christmas tree I truly remember from my childhood was the scraggly crooked one my father had to nail down. We all fell in love with it. Just like Charlie Brown. Enjoy your Charlie Brown Christmas.

Sweetie the fact that you said you wont give up on your Charlie Brown Christmas tree says it all!


That is my absolutely favorite Christmas show and I just think it say so much about Christmas and life in general..


We may all be "charlie brown trees" in our own way.. but I know I'm NOT GIVING UP on ANYONE OF YOU! Christmas Tree


Sending love and caring to you Jenn and to Everyone!
