Thank you Seawaters, He was 71...

I'll tell you more as I learn more, start the real training next week! I am a CEC, in charge of the front end of the store, the 10 registers, customer service, covering & scheduling employee breaks, mentoring & coaching employees, and a lot that I don't know about just yet! :wink:
Thanks for asking!



That is wonderful! Glad it was a successful evening for them last night.

Congrats on your winning bid! Dessert sounds delicious!!





I'm very sorry for your loss, friend.
Praying for you & your family.

Winter fair sounds amazing!! I bet you had a lovely time, Victoria.
Have a super evening!!

Hey everyone! As the weekend comes to a close I am trying to get ready to go back to work after a 2 week break. We just got back from buying Christmas lights and hooks to hang on the wall. We got our first snow fall this morning!!! Nov 3rd was later than I thought but we have snow chances all week!!!
I have not even had chance to watch hallmark Christmas movies. I know Moonlight and Mistltoe came on all weekend and I had that set to record..it's one of our favorites. I hope everyone had a great weekend. I will catch up here hopefully soon. it's been such a hard past 2 weeks I hope things will look up soon!

Thinking of you guys, friend.

Enjoy the pretty snow!!

((Hugs))

Pfft who wakes up at 5:30am on her day off? This chick right here!!!!!
How the heck is everyone? I, myself am fantastic

Little update since July-- good tidings have been brought to my life this whole year! Amazing what happiness can do for you
- bought a 2013 Mitsubishi lancer, sports edition.. Woohoo traded in the g5 towards it, yes I feel a little sassy when I drive it LOL
- found a brand new, basement suite out in the country everything included!... For me & Ryan to live in
- Ryan moved here at the end of September (yay! No more long distance)
- now have a set schedule at work, which is mon-fri!! Still a fair bit of hours, but am thankful I now have a job that allows me to keep my bills paid & food in my belleh
- am very happy!
Things have been going really well for me (finally!) in all aspects of my life! Relationship great, family awesome, friends superb.. Life is just good! Now to get back on track with somewhere I have missed dearly in my crazy busy life! MMC!!!!

Went to port yesterday to pick up a little something near and dear to my heart... mom handed down her beautiful 7ft Christmas tree to me!!!
She's had it since I can remember and it's always been her pride & joy come christmas time! My grandma may end up a bit ticked and I know my sister was upset.. They've both been vying for it for as long as I can remember & I won't lie, I'm not completely innocent either when it comes to "who gets THE TREE?"... Somehow I get the honours (I am the oldest daughter.. That has to count for something right?), might just have to arm my home with security cameras & the occasional ninja now though.. Keep their pesky little mits off it! Hahaha
My mom usually went a little Clark griswald on it (yes a billion sparkling lights LOL).. So hopefully I can try to keep up with her tree decorating standards hahaha! Poor boyfriend won't be able to see the telly anymore if I follow mas footsteps muahaha, wait maybe that's a good thing!!!! Oh who am I kidding, I wanna watch the tube too!!! :d
I was planning on putting it up today, but I may wait till next weekend seeing as the little amount of decorations I do have for the tree... Are packed away in the storage closet:/ ( and I gotta pick up more!!)

How's everyone else been?

Good morning! Sighhhhhh....I was so looking forward to a nice relaxing weekend for a change. But, instead, I woke up to having to repair a leaking sink and I just got a phone call from my brother and he just informed me that they just found my father passed away on his couch. My brother stopped down there to visit on a whim and made the discovery. He's down there at the house with the police right now, so I'm going to head over and consult and provide comfort for my grandfather (who is 95 and my father was his only child).

Always something.....I'll talk to ya all later tonight~

I am so sorry for your loss, Xmastidings. You and your family are in my thoughts.

Good evening,


I have spent hours working on my MP3 transfers to get ready for the season. I have enjoyed all the work of doing it. I was getting ready to sync everything up, I hit the wrong button. I LOST EVERYTHING!!! All that work I have done the last two days is gone. I have to start over, I am beyond frustrated.

I will be back later.


:sad:

Sounds like something I would do... Good luck!

Good seeing you around! Keep coming back!

Glad things are on the upswing! You deserve it!

Oh, no! That's awful! You didn't lose the MP3s, I hope. Even if you didn't, it's so time-consuming to tag everything just right so that anything you want is just a click or a tap away. I hope reconstructing the work goes quicker than it did the first time so you can soon be listening to everything. It's frustrating, but it'll be worth the effort in the end.

If you run into trouble in the future, sometimes you can reverse the mistake by hitting Control+Z right away. That's an "undo" that works in many different programs.

I didn't lose the MP3's, I lost the playlists I had ready to transfer from my computer to my MP3 player. I just have to go back through and find all the songs I had set up ready to go. I have thousands of songs to go through again. I have already spent about 7-8 hours working on this project.
