Just a quick post to say hello! I wasn't around much last week at all. I worked two days last week and had to put my car in the shop another day so it was a jam packed week. I have been doing a little reading and catching up on notifications this evening so decided I should say hello. Nothing new going on here. Same old stuff. I will try to get some housework done before it gets really cold here. It's been pretty during the day with lots of sunshine and warmth. Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

@rebelann Days are nice but the nights are getting nippy. We are in the 50's and will go to the high 40's any night now.

@LadyDuck Winter full blown there. Keep it across the pond!! It is 75 here right now. We have two fronts colliding and was supposed to have rain all day. So far just warm and very humid and sticky.

We're getting some lovely sun and warmth today too - a nice change from all the cold, wet weather.

Our cold front came in this weekend and looks like it is hanging around this week with temps dropping to low 50's at night. At least the temps are warming up for daytime.

I don't know how we will handle the holiday rush. Last week was totally crazy. Dressing rooms full, floor with 4-5 sets of customers (many in groups mom/daughter or teens all together) shopping. Then need someone at register. We talked about the Chrismas rush and this co-owner told me we will definitley have to double up with workers in the shop. She was referring to us--peeps like me, but I really think we will need at least 4 people. I'm sure she will be around but she will be needing to unpack new merchandise,tag and put it out. We lost track of customers last week, first it was me not remembering which customer belonging in certain dressing room. Then later that week she did the same thing and her memory is amazing. For instance, you can hold up a piece of clothing and ask where it goes- she will know if it is the LAST item in that style/color. It gets confusing trying to remember which customer you started a dressing room matching what you put in there with them continuing to shop. I see lots of laughs in the coming months!

The car got fixed up that afternoon. It just needed a sensor replaced. I was happy that they had it in stock. Still doing good at the shop too! I just need to build on some regular customers!!

Last week was quite busy. I don't want to work two days a week again if I can help getting out of it. I was a little late putting my days in. I had just gotten approval for the extra 8 hours and had to enter them at the beginning of the month so didn't have much choice in which days to work--they were all taken!
