Working for the weekend

So whoever wrote the song working for the weekend definitely didn't work retail! And some people like to complain, "Oh you have banker's hours." I just want to smack them. Because honestly bankers hours do not mean what they used to mean! I work in a branch that is in a Dillons grocery store and we are open 10a-8p Monday through Friday and 10a-6p on Saturdays. And we are also open on those goofy holidays like Veterans Day, Columbus Day, etc. So, of course this post relates to my life because I have to work tomorrow. So I am going to work all day from 10-6 and then come home, be a quick change artist and go to a Halloween party. Leo is being nice and staying home with the monkey and i am real excited! The party is at my friends house who I used to work with but since I changed locations we don't see each other near as often as we should and I am looking forward to a night out! I'll post some pictures after the weekend! Hope everyone else has a great weekend!

Small victories

So I know I haven't posted in a while and this one is going to be quick, but we have had a small victory in the Fernandez household. Leo has slept in his own bed for 5 nights in a row! That is ever so exciting since he will be 20 months old tomorrow (I can't freaking believe it!). Anywho...he will go through (short) phases where he will sleep in his own bed and I will be in heaven, but the last time he did that he got sick with the rotovirus and then got chicken pox a month later and boy was sleeping in his own bed screwed up after that! So, we went to KC for the weekend and Leo stayed with my folks and he sleeps in his own bed there and so we made him sleep in his own bed every night since then. So I am thrilled to have 1/2 of the bed to myself! And now the next big thing to break him of is his bottle. Any suggestions would be fabulous!

Rainy Tuesdays

So as I am sitting here deciding when I want to get up to get ready for work all I can hear is the pitter patter of rain. It makes it so hard to do anything. I don't like to get up to go to work on a daily basis (even though I really like my job) but the rain the last couple of days has made it a lot harder. It is days like today that really makes me wish I had a job like my mom's where she can call in on a whim. I know she has days that she absolutely can not call in and her job is pretty stressful sometimes as well, but I mean the easiness of calling in. No one to make her feel like she may not be sick enough to stay home or that the job is really dependent on her to where they may not function that day because she won't be there. Yeah, I hate that. I wish I could just crawl under my covers and pop in a good movie and just cat nap all day long with no worries. But alas I do not. I guess I should get up and go get ready. But Lord knows that I will not be doing my hair because it won't matter. The rain will mess it up anyways. Gotta love ponytails!
