Ahh I forgot about that because I do have a gmail account I usually put them there because I assume it’ll always be there. All of our myrtle beach photos are on FB and between my phone and camera we took over 400 . I actually just photo spammed it trying to make room now on my phone. I know we’ve got 3 weeks still but I wanna do it now than wait and be told the memory is full especially because I take photos daily of Amaya . Though I do it Incase anything ever happens I literally have a recent photo and her outfit (how sad that we have to think that way though!?).

I did find a laptop! It’s a rent to own, $130 a month and $25 down so I’m gonna call Monday for more info. If we’re going to the state fair it’ll have to wait if not I may be able to get it now. But I’ve got a few questions to ask as well as they get new appliances in general in weekly. And it’ll help my credit score (thanks to medical bills and student loans it’s low but getting better) so it may be a good idea that’ll help me in the long run .

That’s great Sandy

Yesterday I had to work and then I went out for drinks and dinner with a couple of people from head office. I didn’t stay late though, I was back home in my pajamas by 9pm which is the perfect night out for me these days Today I’m not doing anything other than reading and probably watching some Castle (I’m in a Castle mood )

Sandy, sounds good

Fiona - sounds perfect, indeed

We're getting some rain now! Desperately needed!

Sandy0401

Sounds like a good day, Fiona

Kathrin us too. We had some yesterday and than last night/over night. They’re calling for it everyday til Saturday but our lakes are low, grass is brown and yellow, farmers are suffering big time all from lack of rain. We’re not used to almost 30 days without rain or 15 days in a row at over 90. The first night it hit 65 we realized why people in the south complain that 65 is cold . Typically for us 65 is beautiful not cold.

We’re on the verge of a hosepipe ban over here (it starts in a couple of weeks) which sucks, we’re not used to not having rain in the U.K.

Last year we had rain rain for almost 45 days from June to August this year so far under 5. Our rain today was a sprinkle at 5am and since then we’ve had nothing, however it is very muggy out.

We're supposed to get temps in the upper 90s this week (bad)

Everyone have a good week

Our temp was over 100 degrees F and will be that for most of this week. Add in 90+% humidity and it is absolutely miserable to go from the front door to your car!!!!

Today, was the first day of work with the new temporary manager. I will say it's nice to have someone come in and know what to do. He was asking me questions about my position and how I handled everything. He also confirmed the education schedule for the day and I was very impressed at how he knew what was going on in the store. He was very nice and friendly. I don't feel comfortable going to him for anything yet, but I know that will come with time.

Copop

Candace, I hope he will fit in nicely in your store

Luckily, we'll get dry heat. One good thing, I guess...

dorkalot

He's only going to be at our store for like 2 to 3 weeks as he is the manager of another store, so we'll be going through another transition once whoever is taking over is fully trained.

Copop

Oh, that's not ideal. Well, I hope he's not bringing chaos to your store

dorkalot

We'll see Actually, he has worked at our store in the past before he became the manager of the other store, so that was nice to hear. I feel like these next couple weeks won't be too bad.

Copop

Well, then it shouldn't be that bad Crossing my fingers for you

So... the heat is coming in. I'm glad for the AC in my office

I hated that work asked me for a correct phone number on Monday. They had my number typed in wrong and I and they kept forgetting to fix it. I went 2 days before they called me!!! I was driving home today from running errands and I received a call from work urging me to call back as soon as possible. Long story short, it was just about an issue with a class, but still...Days off are days I don't want to think about work.

It could always be worse, but I don't get paid to deal with issues off the clock, on my days off!
