Randomness

Just some quick randomness today.. I've got so much going on it's hard to stay on top of everything!
Work has been crazy busy, we're in "season" and short staffed! So I've been going like a crazy person.. the hour and a half drive definitely doesn't help much either! But I'm determined to make this work!
I made it through my first event with WHBM last week Thursday, it went well. We were number #1 volume in our district at $8200! That was exciting.. there was so much put into the one day, that we were all exhausted come Friday, but we had a pretty good Valentine's/President's Day weekend. Other than a surprise visit from the Vice President of our company on Saturday that didn't go well at all, I was pleased with how we did. Those visits are always hard to swallow too, he was down vacationing with his wife and no one had any idea! Oh well... not a great first impression but I'm supposed to get more details tomorrow when I see my DM.
And.. I have an assistant manager who essentially does nothing. She's really a glorified full time sales person! She has no business being in her position at that store! She's driving me crazy and my other full time assistant is so fed up with her! I know I'll get through it, but goodness the stress right now!
My dad was down visiting last week, I got to spend some time with him which was nice, but he spent time Adrianna which was very good. I wish I could live near my parents so they had the opportunity to know their grandchild and vice versa. It's so hard with the short visits and just phone calls and talking on the computer. He got to take her to a Valentine's Party at Gymboree.. I think they all had lots of fun! He made a video of it, and hopefully I'll figure out how to get it on to here soon.. Auntie Emily and Uncle Allen also went with her and it seemed everyone had a great time. Afterward they went to dinner at Cody's and Adrianna ate her usual...French Fries!
I swear she thinks it's the 6th food group or something, at least she's really good about eating fruit too. She loves Apples, Bananas, Strawberries, Grapes, Blueberries, Pineapple, Melon... so I guess I'll take the French Fry eating. Her Dad bought her a little box of sugar free chocolates for Valentine's Day and she successfully ate the whole box in a day. Yes, she is definitely my daughter!
I guess that's all for now.. hopefully after my DM visit I'll have some good news to report!
