being lazy

haven't posted a new blog in a long time....I guess work has caught up with me. Now that the scheduling has gone all computerized, I won't know what times I'll be working till I see them posted on the wall. There was some question is I was going to get the days off that I had requested. But after being pulled around in so many directions-I was told by personnel that as long as you have your request in by the time-frame needed-you were ok. So I don't hold too much faith in the manager "Cynthia" anymore. I seems like I am working the weirdest hours, either I am opening and working till 1 in the afternoon or I come in at the late afternoon and work till closing. And that's not being helpful with my MS. This coming Monday will be an injection night and Gary will have to come up and help me with it. I've explained something of this to my department manager, mark, but I got the impression he still didn't know what all that would entail. Knowing the way the schedule will work is that I will be the only one left in the deli after a certain time and when it comes time to take my injection, I will have to leave for the bathroom and just about that time we will have an angry customer come up and complain that no-one was there to wait on them. (Something like last Sunday when 2 people called out and I was left alone after 8pm. People get really mad if you aren't there to "jump at their every beck and call" so to speak.) Life is too short to get all riled up over something like that. I just wonder what today is going to bring.....
My sister's bachelorette party is coming up this Saturday. I was sent an e-mail about the days agenda, and was amazed at the cost of some of the events. (I would love to see the Parthenon.!!) I have so many bills to be paid now, becuase of my medical situation, I don't know what to do. Gary tells me to take the money and go splurge on myself for once, but I keep thinking the money could be used to make payments on my ever growing medical bills. I work at the Wal-Mart deli....my hands will be covered up with gloves most of the time anyway. Going club hopping really doesn't interest me at all....so I guess you can call me an old fogie. We have to plan about the weekend of her wedding also. Gary will be working that Friday morning, so we'll be making a mad dash to Paris for the rehersal dinner that night. Then her wedding is that Saturday afternoon, Then I'm sure Gary will want to go to church in Holladay that Sunday. I just wished we didn't live so far away. it would make the weekend's events a little less hectic. I guess I'll have to make up my mind and send an-email to Stephanie soon. Just have to see what the money situation is. I'll feel like the designated driver along with a group of young-20 somethings having a wild night out on the town as the day draws closer to her party. The MS makes me so tired most of the time. I'll have to make it an early night because I know I have to be at work early that following Sunday morning.
Then on the 22nd. my Aunt and Uncle from Missouri will be in town. They will be visiting with friends the night before and we will be meeting up for breakfast on the next am. I called yvonne and told her I'd be working till closing that night before, so she'll have to call me and let me know what the plans are for that day as the time draws nearer. Then Jimmy plans on coming up late on the 24th. He wants to enter a gospel singing contest on the 25th. He wanted Gary to enter with him also, but Gary read the rules and regulations part, and he decided against it. You have to be free all the dates they specify and it would conflict with his job and classes. I called Jimmy's cell and told him about it. But as of yet he hasn't called me back. If he still wants to enter we will support him. But if he doesn't we will still welcome him if he wants to stay the night with us here in Nashville. I'll call him later today and see what he's planning on doing...
