A Teddy Lover’s Travels…

Even without work I’ve found ways to keep busy. I still have to keep house and take care of Erik. That is the best job that any girl could ever ask for. He’s been so supportive of me.
Then there is also my two on-line classes. I keep busy doing that. On-line classes are fun because you get to go to class at whatever time of day that you want to. You have to keep track of classes and what is due for yourself.
I’m going to be looking for a job actively after we get back from Chicago. That is where Erik and I will be spending our one year anniversary. The day before we will be attending the renewal of vows of Mike and Rachel.
I will be looking at Target in food ave, boots cosmetics, and other jobs there. We need insurance and Target gives it to part time employees. That is something that Macy’s didn’t do.
There are no hard feelings about what happened. I guess I have just moved on and not worry about it. That is just what I’m going to do.

I’m unemployed again, I guess it’s back to the drawing board.

I just got back from work and that is still my mindset. I was going on autopilot most of the day today. I feel like I know what’s going on. I enjoyed my day at work.
I just wanted to give you my weekly update with my hours. I really wish that I had more hours this week. I work only 8 hours again this week. 11:30-3:30 on Wednesday and 3-7 on Saturday. If anyone wants to drop by marketplace please feel free to do so.

Today I worked. I can’t think of a single Saturday that I haven’t worked since I started. Today was busy, busy, I guess there was a big Mother’s Day Sale complete with makeovers. I went sampling three times and it was so crowded that I almost couldn’t move.
Well while I was waiting for Erik that is when the big adventure started. I was talking with other people and all of a sudden there was smoke coming from one of the cars in the parking lot. A car was on fire!!! You could see the smoke from half a block away. When Erik came and got me I’m pretty sure that the first thing I said to him was, “There is a car on fire in the parking lot.”
Erik and I spent a good deal of time out just the two of us today. I always like spending time with just him. I think that is my bit of heaven. I wish I could see Erik more often, but right now we both have to finish school and work so that we can pay the bills.
Also due to the fact that it is finals this next week, I only work two shifts. I work on Thursday from 12-4 and Saturday from 12-4. Come by if you’d like.

I don’t have much class this week. I have finals next week though. Then it’s all over for awhile, I do have class over the summer. I have two classes one online and one on campus.
Ok so I have to work 13 hours this week. I work from 12-5 on Tuesday, 11-3 on Thursday and 10-2 on Saturday. I’m trying so hard to learn the last of the things that I have left to learn.

I don’t know what to say, I guess work has gone on much as it has since I started. Smoothie making is getting easier for me but I still just don’t like to do it.
I have had a brush with my boss but it’s all ok now. I’m not going to worry about it and carry on at work. Oh well I think we’ll all be ok.
Next week I work 11-3 on Wednesday, 10-2 Thursday and 12-5:45 on Saturday. If you want to come and visit me you are more than welcome to. If you do so that would be very nice of you.
I have learned a lot about life this week. I really don’t care to get into too much detail here. I just learned that I have to just try and be a good person

I’m really liking my job. There is never a dull moment there, and there is always so much to do. I do miss Erik when I’m there. I made my first smoothie alone today.
I have a lot of things going on around me. I’m almost done with school and hopefully I’ll be all graduated by August. That is not why I posted today though.
I work on Monday from 12-4, Tuesday from 12-4 and Saturdy from 2-6. I guess that’s about it.

Today I went to work as normal. I was helping all sorts of people. I guess I’m really starting to like my job. I feel like I know what I’m doing.
I was making up my sampling tray for the second time, when my Erik appeared behind me. I was busy doing that and then I went out sampling. I’m not sure if I like sampling or not, but you do as you are told at work.
I came back and I got to wait on Erik. That was a lot of fun. Please come to Marketplace if you are in the neightborhood. I work from 11-3 on Thursday and from 2-7:45 on Saturday. I was not on the schedual but my manager fixed it for me.

Let me start off by saying that I no longer feel lost at my job anymore. It’s almost a comfort to be there. I mean I miss Erik, but what wife wouldn’t miss her husband???
I love Erik very much and things are going well for us we’ve been married a little over 8 months, 8 months and 4 days to be exact. I feel that I couldn’t be happier with my life right now. I feel that I’m in a good spot.
School is going well, hopefully I’ll be graduating in August with just my A.A. Degree. I just need to get into one more class for the summer and then hope and pray that I pass. I feel like my life has some direction now, but I don’t know what that direction is just yet.
I just wanted to update a little bit about Marketplace. I miss my old job and I don’t expect the job I have now to take it’s place. I feel that it probably won’t. Then again I can’t tell you for sure either. I’m just happy to be back in the work world again and to help out with the bills. Food is a very hard job because let me tell you hungry people aren’t always that nice to you. But I guess that is one of the things that I still have to get used to.
Next week I don’t work that much mostly due to the fact that Macy’s isn’t open on Sunday due to the fact that it’s Easter. I work 12-4 on Tuesday, my first Tuesday shift ever, and 11:30-3:30 on Saturday.

I worked from 11:30-4:30 today. It was a long shift but I learned how to do a few more things. I learned how to make smoothies and waffle cones. It was a long funfilled day. I even got a few cutomers that were so nice to me and treated me better than some people I have known over the years.
It was just me and the manager today for a good portion of time. Give me a few more days and I’ll learn how to do even more things. I never realized just how many things that you had to do in food. So many little things that I never even thought of. Everyday it seems that I learn things I didn’t even know that we did.
I already said that I work on Saturday from 10:30-4:40. I also have my new hours for the week, Sun 12-4, Thursday 11-3 and Saturday 10:30-2:30. If you are in the neighborhood you can feel free to stop by.
