Is Hell Week done yet?
This past week was hell week. Worked both jobs every freakin' day. So I wasn't surprised when I told Joseph about the sched, he was like"I'll see you next week?" Well, actually, it wasn't too bad for the first 6 days I was doing it. It was actually bearable, more sleep would have been nice.
Only last night was the last straw. Store was to close at 7, but we didn't get out until 9:30. The meeting was 2 hours long. I am wasted. I was on mute mode (almost) during the meeting.
I need a vacation.

The Website
Word's out - Invites out.
The Website is on the roll. We have been getting great feedbacks on the photos and the website. Kudos to our people. =) They are great. I am not sure if I have posted that our old wedding coordinator - we fired her. Well, technically - I fired her. Great sense of relief. It's one of those feelings, that someone in your group is dragging everything on like 10mph speed. Letting her go was such a (again) relief. And just for the record, she's holding my "most unprofessional person" title whom I have ever met. I really was not too happy as you can tell. But this new lady that we hired, she's a lot more promising. It just felt more right this time.
People like the invite. Wow, looking back how we had to fight for that invite. Printer had to make a new die to cut it, locate the Copper ink I wanted. Long time for the paper. Oh and those brads, how we had to sift through the stores from Montana to Florida. It was all worth it.

Gwen style
So I finally found (and have) a natural waist high skinny jeans. =)
If I find a high-waisted one, got to have it.
Does this mean I am getting old (ehem, mature..) Or then again maybe it's almost winter again, extra coverage won't hurt ey? I am becoming less fond of those super ultra low rise jeans, I've had my days. Mid-twenties kicking in.
We finally viewed the Engagement pictures, they turned out well. They'll be coming out soon.
Hubby and I are ready to break up with somebody soon. I am still thinking of a good break-up line for her.
Daewu has been feeling sick this past few days. We don't know the deal.
By the way, Happy 10th Bday to Ravvy!
Some things Fresh
Smashing Pumpkins! - after like 7 years.
Neyo
Chrisette Michelle - finally. If you like the soul '50s style, listen to her.
Hubby got Kelly Clarkson. I thought it was alternative-ish. Her cd reminds me of Evanescence.
The Hills Season 2 in the shelf.
I have The Simpsons seasons 1-10 COMPLETE! yay! =)
Honey Bee
The invitations came in, they look really nice. Very simple but nice. I've put the brads on them already. We are now working on the labels. Bought a new printer for the Mac last Wednesday from Target - and bought more stuff.
I'm excited to go to this business trip in Billings. It's for the store - more training. I'll be going with Hattie. It was sweet of her last night, when I came in she said that she did missed working with me. I know, it felt like it's been awhile we worked together. 6-8 was not too good. Conv was 22%!!! =/ and missed it by $99. Made up for it on 8-9, conv was 100% ?!! and made $. Still good I guess.
It's my boss' bday today! We got him some cream puffs. A co-worker said I look like a honey bee today. I have on black skinny jeans, black tank top and an yellow eyelet blazer. It's a nice color for a gloomy sky earlier this morning.
I'm getting antsy about winter creeping in. It's starting to get chilly in the mornings. I have yet again to get my coats and jackets out - mien! And I won't be able to wear a lot of my shoes again. It will be back to socks and boots. I need more boots. I can't wait to shop in Jax in Oct.

Not too Blah..
Did some catching up at work. And it was my first time back to the store. I am happy I made both my segments in $, and only one in conversion. Good comeback! =) For almost the first time, I enjoyed pulling inventory. weird.
Later last night, the hubby got a familiar call of frustration. And good thing whatever that was about, I learned today that it's actually ready! oh well, so unnecessary to fret over it. whatever. more and more I find it harder and harder to please that person. Now I understand even better why those kids are that way. Good learning.
On a lighter note, the hubby and I will be back in Jax the same time. He felt there isn't really a need for him to be there that early and rather be here with me. =) That definitely conquered a recurring cancer in my head. I love you!

In Full Swing
So the hubby and I are back to Great Falls, arrived Mon - back to the daily grind of work, work - and work. We were both not too thrilled but being home in our own house is such a big comfort. Very happy! Unfortunately, when we got back here in MT, we were missing one bag (which contained my brushes.. darn) and some food from home (thanks Mom!). So that was a bummer. We got it yesterday though.
So here's a rundown what happened during our one-week trip to Jax:
Monday. Almost whole day flying. I can't believe I slept through it. My neck was hurting so bad. So the hubby's shoulder came in very handy! I had to bring this huge poster to Jax. We could just see curiosity in people's eyes. Oh well, I think I'm getting used to that having brought a whole box of Krispy Kreme from Jax to Great Falls. That was fun - Krispy Kreme made people much nicer. Anyway, so we got home and just stayed at the parentals' house until we had to pick up Ms Solara. Oooh, I missed that car! She's still pretty. Thanks to Ate Bel, for watching over that darling. Chatted a little bit with Bel and Jon and went home.
Tuesday. Long drive to Actionville, all the way to Northside. Meeting with Agnes.
Went to Bed, Bath and Beyond real quick. Then off to Aimee's bday at China King. Watched Chuck and Larry at AMC.
Wednesday. Omni at 12 with Kim and Danita. Town Center. At Bebe, saw Candice! Played chess. Wow it's been a long time. Saw Erika and Steven then ran into Lora, my MAC friend! Starbucks. Dinner at Koi with Anne and Bel. A really late trip to Auntie Ruth to get my Wedding dress.
Thursday. Meeting at the church with Amy for the flowers. Lunch at home. Krispy Kreme for the ladies for the shoot. The 6-hour Bridal Shoot. Luv you Agnes and Jackie! - I was in very good hands. Chicken wings at Hooters at The Landing.
Friday. Mass at Bunnell. Meeting with Fr. Art, selected readings for the wedding mass. Food tasting at The Omni with Dad. Hilarious punch lines. Home,napped. Meeting with Rainer at Panera. Engagement Session from 5-9pm . Sushi Cafe with Agnes & Damon. Great sushi!
Saturday. Meeting at The Omni - linens. Express (express shopping) saw Kennesha! Surprise Bridal Shower. Home - clean-up. The Avenue's. Bought some face stuff (which I can't find anywhere when we got home), new shoes. Watched The Simpsons at Tinseltown. I slept halfway through it. Can't believe that! Sorry Homey!
Sunday. Mass at St. Paul's. Breakfast at Ellen's. Napped at home. Video Montage at Maggianos. I'm excited. Also video some friends for the website. Sephora broke my heart, saw Theresa! Dinner at Maggianos. Kim joined us for the meeting. Met with Trish for cake. She says it will be gorgeous, I'm excited. Walmart real quick. Packed, crammer style. Thanks to hubby, he did most of it. =)
Then Monday, flying day again. We both slept through it. Wow, we were tired. It was fun. We got some inmportant things done. Bummer: The hubby didn't get to have his Smoothie King.
Overall, it was good. 2 years down to a little more than 2 months.
