Good Morning all....the weekend is here

Well maybe spring is finally going to hang around...still gets a little chilly but the grass is finally getting greener and I planted some pansies..love those happy little faces.

Amanda (the former manager of our store) left yesterday...I will miss her..she was fun, the new manager Angela seems ok but she stresses out over everything. We have these tapers(long candles) that have one connecting wick (you cut the wick in half to burn them)and the little price tags are on the wicks...she stood making sure all the price tags went in the same direction and the candles were all hanging level. She's pregnant and scheduled to go out on maternity leave in June..the other store she managers is not busy at all and ours does about ten times the business..so I figure she'll be beating these candles up in about a week because they won't stay level..will be interesting to watch

BB - Hope you got your hat back..although it was appearing on your posts on my board.

Frannie - I am having a problem with the Frannie Group...it won't let me in and if I try to rejoin it tells me the email address I give is already being used. Have written them twice..want you to know I'm still thinking of you.

Lynda - always happy to hear the good news about Franni..sorry your job is boring but at least you have the option of changing it. That Larry is one great guy.

Brenda - Happy to see you here.

Hope everyone enjoys there weekend no matter what they have scheduled. The sun is shinning and I'm thrilled.

All the price tags facing the same direction? Was she ever in the Army? She'll have lots of fun when you have a sale and they are picked up to be looked at; maybe she'll have you wipe finger prints off.

Have a fun weekend. Kathey

If I didn't know better, I would think my sister had changed her name to Angela and gone to work for your store. My sister is a neatnik, bordering on obsessive/compulsive, and she is just like your new manager -- she MUST have everything in a strict order or it drives her crazy. I have talked about her linen closet here on the board before. It is not only straight and neat (you can't even tell which of the folded sheets are fitted and which ones are flat), but she has the darn thing color coordinated -- all greens together, all yellows together, etc. Nothing in her house is out of place. Your Angela sounds just like her. I'll bet she will change when she has her baby. Either she will change or she will go nutty trying to keep perfect order.

Hope you have a good weekend, Val......BB

Sounds as if Angela is either a neat-nick or she has found a way to "appear" busy without doing much of anything! LOL

Enjoy your day...

Gee Val, sounds like lots of changes at work for you and another new manager in June. You haven't said anything lately about the dogs. How are they doing? Have a great weekend! KaCee

Val- it certainly is nice to feel the sun. The flowers in the park are doing beautifully. I got back Wed. and DB is doing fine. Not trace of cancer upon last check up. I am enjoing my lavender/rosemary candle although i was told it was for a deck. It's fine for inside too. Val- you need to keep notes about your job and the running of the shop. I think you have a nice long article there, or a small book.
