New Year, New Me!

Hey Bloggy Friends!

I have been super super bad at blogging the last few months! As most of you now I started working at Old Navy and this time of year is crazy in retail! I have been getting a TON of hours! And that is great!

Starting next week I am down to 2 shifts a week for the next 2 months. Were just gonna be that slow. But you know, I think its gonna be a good thing! I have loved working and all, but I have sorta lost myself, so know I can get back on bored! And what a better time to do that then the New Year!

Since I will be getting so less hrs I have been trying to look for other things as well! I LOVE working at Old Navy and will not quite that, I just need something to fill in off hrs! I am sending my resume into Braums! There looking for managment! And I applied at a new store coming into our mall called Earthbound Trading Company! So we shall see!

I am also going to be sitting down this next week and writing out goals for my Pampered Chef and how I will fullfill them! I plan on making more money with it this year!

So since the new year is tomorrow, I thought I would share with you some of my goals for the year!

1. Work out and eat heathyer ( my mom and I are doing this together! )

2. Blog at least 3 times a week! ( ive missed blogging so much! )

3. Write my book!

4. Get started on my 101 in 1001 days List ( you can see it in my above link! )

I may have more as I think about it, I prolly will! Ill update yall on it! But my 101 in 1001 days kinda has allot of it in it!

I will be doing a post here soon about some of my Christmas gifts and such!

Happy New Years to all who are still with me out there! :)

XOXO

Its My BIRTHDAY!

Yep! Its my 23rd Birthday!

Im not sure, but after 21 it just felt like another year. Maybe its the fact that the next "big" birthday is what 30, or is it 50? Im not sure. You get all excited at 16, and then 18, and the 21. But after that, ehhh, im not sure!

Dont get me wrong, I love my birthday and all! Allready this morning I have gotten 34 birthday wishes on facbeook! And I love each person for it. But its not some big thing anymore!

I am Alive!

Good Monday Morning dear blogger friends...well, if anyone is still with me that is! :)

I have been gone from the blogging world for so long if your still with me I would love to hear from you! I am going to try and be better at blogging! Need to learn to juggle my new job and everything else in life!

Well, my 23rd birthday is tomorrow! WOW! How the year has flown by! It seems like just yesterday I was turning 22 and helping my sister pull her wedding together! Crazy how time fly's!

Most of you have heard that I am going to be an Auntie! Well, Friday my sister had her sonogram and I found out I am going to have a Niece! I am super excited! I got her a cute little dress and am putting it in the Christmas box to send up to them! I am trying to keep myself from not buying everything I see for her :)

Work at Old Navy is going great! I love it! The only down side is the 45min drive to work! And some days we get things done fast and they cut my hrs, and thats hard when i live so far away!

Well, I am going to close for now! I WILL be back with more!

XOXO

Bad Blogger Here!

If your a bad blogger raise your hand! Ya, both of mine are up! I have been HORRIBLE at blogging! But tonight I am sitting down and doing some post up to shedual! Organization is the key!

Things have been crazy at work! Any retail is crazy this time of year, but were Old Navy and were just plain cool! LOL!

Wednesday and Thursday I worked early morning shippment! Both days we were only suppost to get 8 thousand items in and we got 11thousand! So we have been swamped with stuff!

I went in 2hrs early today to try and help them get caught back up! Its been that crazy!

So I am joining in on several swaps this holiday and I was like, how in the heck am I gonna keep track of all these and work!? And then I relized I have this amazing Erin Condren planner and I need to use it to its max! So I have been keeping ALL that in there! Its my best friend these days!

Ok another randum things. I was homeschooled all my life, so I have never had to work with a locker! Well, at work we all have lockers, and I cannot for the life of me get it down! It takes me 5min to open the stupid thing! I swear it will not get the best of me, but some days! Gahhh!

Tonight after I got off work my family stopped by the mall and we did a bit of shopping! I stopped and drooled over the rings at Kay's! I wish I wish I Wish!

Well, on a final note, With the Thanksgiving Holiday coming up my job is getting crazy busy, so Would anyone be interested in being a guest blogger?? I would love you forever! I would be glad to blog for you as well!

Please let me now ASAP! I need something SOON!

XOXO

I have NEWS!

I am still here fellow bloggers! The earthquakes and Tornado's here in the Lovely state of Oklahoma have not taken me down yet!

I must say, I did feel both those earthquakes, it was kinda weird and cool all at the same time. But yet, that's not my news! And no, I do not have a boyfriend and am not getting married, just to stop that rumor right now before it even gets started! LOL!

Some of you may now in other post that I don't mind my job that I have, but I really am wanting something different! Well, this past Saturday I got that!

Last Thursday I filled out a TON of online applications: Starbucks, Gap, Old Navy, Cato's extra. On Friday Old Navy called me back! There hiring seasonal for now, but wanting to keep on some! I went in for an interview Saturday and was given the job right then and there!

I spent 2 to 6 on Sunday in training and then 7 to 10 in a store wide meetings! Lets just say im whooped right now! LOL!

I start my first shift tomorrow! 6:30 am to 11:30 am! I am working the shipment shift! My job is 45min from me so that means a 5am morning! Oh well! I work same shift Thursday and then from 11:30 to 3pm I have training on the Sales floor! Saturday I work 4pm to close!

I am hoping to pick up extra shifts as I go and really make my paycheck count!

So that's my exciting news!
