catching up
It has been some time since I have written on my blog. I think I will make it a goal to try harder at this. I enjoy doing it- it is just finding the time. Since I started to work in sales I have been keeping very busy. I love the job! That is surprising to me! I am good at it and I love helping people with things they need. It may sound silly- but when someone comes into the store and hasn’t been able to find jeans that fit and I can help them, or an outfit that makes them look great for a special event they will be attending- I just love it. There are those occasional people that are cranky or hard to deal with- but I can just let them go out of my mind as soon as they are out of the store. Keep moving forward. I have been putting in more hours than when I first started because I was promoted to sales lead or part time assistant manager. Which ever one you want to call it. I love learning new things and it has been fun for me to learn the ins and outs for retail. Like today- I learned the outs…..how to take out so many boxes I filled the dumpster. All very exciting.
I have still had time to look forward to book club coming up. We will be talking about The Hunger Games this time around. Everyone in the group seems very excited about this meeting. I really enjoyed the book and have read the second in the series. Catching Fire. I loved them so much I bought my son a set of his own and mailed them off. He texted me to say he read them both and really loved them.
I also have a quilt to finish up! Remember back in April I posted about a friendship quilt- I have mine all done- the goal was to finish them be the first weekend of October- I just need to put the binding on. I need to check in with my three other friends to see where they are with theirs and hope for pictures to post soon.
I have been enjoying work and spending time with family and just keeping busy.
This past weekend was Camper’s first birthday! That grandbaby of mine is just growing so fast. I can’t believe how fast the time goes by when you have little ones around. It never seemed like that when I was the mom taking care of the “little ones.”
I think that is all I can think to write about right now. I really hope to do better with this blog of mine!
