Random things

It is Thursday and boy I can't wait for the weekend. I always hate working my 1 Saturday a month because the following week gos by so slowwwwww! It seems as if Friday is never going to be here. We are also especially slow at work. I don't think I have ever said what I do on here LOL I work for a glass company as a Manager. Fall is always our slow time but this year OMG it is horrible. I wonder if and ever our economy is gonna recover? I see alot of building going on around me and wonder how the heck are they gonna rent commercial space or sell these houses. Michigan is really bad right now because of the big 3 with talks of merging and laying off alot of people. Michigan was built on the car industry. I personally know quite a few people that have already been offered buy outs and they are still talking about laying off 3,500 more people without buyout options. I just wonder when and if this is gonna get better. The area we live in is relatively new. The subdivisions started being built about 11 years ago and all the strip malls and business are only about 3 years old. I see vacant buildings everywhere...it is very depressing. Oh and lets not forget about all the people losing their houses to foreclosure. I just can't imagine where all these people are going.

On a lighter note Sarah made the competition cheer team!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited for her! She is getting some good muscles. She also told me she kissed her boyfriend yesterday...I was like did you kiss him with your mouth open. She was very grossed out by that so I guess that is a good sign LOL. She said mom nobody kisses with their mouth open! That made me smile.

I have been able to stay up later and later each night. That is a feat in itself. With it getting dark out so early it makes me want to sleep after dinner. Last night to keep myself up after dinner I went to the mall with my step daughter Racheal and we got some good deals. I had coupons for every $30.00 you spend you get $15 off. I had 4 of those. I got 2 coats, 2 scarfs and a shirt. Racheal got 2 coats and a pair of jeans. I was going with the mindset I was not buying anything for myself, however I am a coat and scarf freak. I was just so excited. Retail therapy is always good when the weather is nasty.

I am waiting for my scrapbook stuff to come from MO and am excited!

I am off to do some work.

I hope everyone has a good day!
