Checkin' In
I'm finally here, back from the land of "no internet". I don't know what the deal is, but last night, after my son using the puter most of the night, and it working fine, when I tried to use the puter, I couldn't connect to the internet. It kept trying to tell me that there was no internet connection, but yet, my internet said it was working right. I finally just turned it off and went to bed....I was SO discusted!!!! I was sure that when I got up this morning, it would be back to the way it sould....just figured there was some kind of problem. Well, needless to say, I got up this morning, and it was doing the same thing. I was sure getting frustrated! I finally just unplugged my moden, and let it sit awhile. Just before leaving to take Lee to work, I plugged it back in and....SURPRISE!!!! Internet! So, now that Lee's at work, and I'm back home, maybe I can get something done on this thing! I don't know what causes it to do that, but it is very frustrating, and certainly aggrivating to me, when I can't get my puter or internet to work right!
I was sooooooo looking forward to those 5 days in a row off....boy, that bubble sure got burst yesterday at work, when Rex told me that the schedule had been changed. Of course, guess there's nothing I can do about it! It seems Rex, and Mary are both going to take some vacation days that are due them, so Rex is having Jacob and I come in and work the store by ourselves on Fri. and Saturday. It will be the first time he's turned the store loose with either one of us. I've been there almost 8 months, and Jacob has been there about 3...or so...I guess. Can't remember when he started. So, Rex informed me yesterday, that he was gonna trust us to hold down the fort. Hopefully, with the holiday weekend, as Rex stated, we won't be as busy either of those days as we normally are. So, it work today, off tomorrow, and back to work on both Fri. and Saturday. Lee has Sat. thru Mon. off. I was looking forward to spending the weekend with him here, but guess that's out of the question now. At least we won't have Rex, or "Miss Mary", down our backs all day. Nothing like workin' when the boss isn't around...hehehehehe!
Moriah's going to a friends today, and will be spending the night. It's a B.D. party. She'll be back sometime tomorrow. We're broke again, as usual, until Lee gets paid, tomorrow. Moriah needed some sort of little gift to take to Allie's, so when I took Lee to work, we put together a nice little chain, and pendant of her zodiac for her. We don't have to put out any money upfront, when we get something from the jewelry store...it will just be taken out of Lee's check. So, that helped. Moriah was all bent outta shape that she wasn't going to have a prez to take to the party. I assured her that we'd come up with something. I sure wouldn't have let her gone to a party empty handed.
Well, today is the day that is suppose to be the day from "hell"....according to the weather guys. Temps today are to close to 100, with heat index of 105 or greater. Boy, it's gonna be a hot one!!! It wasn't too bad yesterday, at work...I was kinda surprised. But, it's hard to say what the heat will be like in there today. Mind you, this is a drycleaners...with NO AC!!! All we have are fans, and when you get 4 presses, all blarin' hot steam, you can imagine what it feels like in there! Hopefully, it won't be as bad today, but it's gonna be hard to say with temps. as high as they're suppose to be. Mary has worked there for 4 years, and she says she's seen it get to about 120 in the cleaners at times. Thats HOT! She told me yesterday, that at one time, Rex had hung a thermometer in the cleaners....the company made him remove it! Guess they didn't want their employees knowing how hot it gets in there. I guess there have been suggestions of trying to put in AC...but from what I hear, the company isn't willing to swing for that expense! You'd think that would be against some kind of work code...or something, to have people working in a sweat box that can reach 120. I've got a small one that I'm tempted to take with me either Fri. or Sat. when I work, and just see what temp it reaches in there! Might be interesting!
Well, guess that's about all I have to report today. There isn't much exciting going on right now! Just the same ole' same ole'... lol Hopefully, I'll be back here tonight...if the internet don't do it's thing, again!
Hope that you all have a great day...and hope it's a little bit cooler than mine is gonna be!
Take care....
Much love,
Lev
