Drum Roll Please....

And My Good News Is.....
I am now the Assistant Manger at my place of employment! Yeah for me. Ok the job title is really just 2nd in charge but that is what I am now. The manger, because of health reasons, stepped down the assistant manger is now manger and I was choosen to be the assistant manger. It comes with a nice raise, and who couldn't use that. Lots more responsibilities and I'm sure stress. But I'm so excited!!!!! Did I ever mention that I love my job?! Well I do and not a lot of people can say that these days. I've been doing the happy dance since yesterday!

Now for some crochet talk.
I have been working on my corner to corner ghan still, and while I've also been unpacking I still have not found my border yarn. ugh! But I did find my four square ghan that I was working on so much before I moved so I will be working on it before long. yeah! I really like that ghan and I haven't decided if I'm going to sell it or give it away for a xmas gift.

Sorry for the pause, but that second cup of coffee was calling my name! Yes today I was going to sleep in, I don't have to be a work till this afternoon, my son has no school today, so what a better thing to do than sleep in? Guess what? I woke up at 3:48 am. And I usually get up at 4. So I didn't get to sleep till my usual time of gettin up. So I thought oh well I'll fix my pot of coffee and go get on the computer and chat and look for patterns, I just love doing that. :)
Have a great day!

Life has been.....

BUSY!!!! Ok where do I start? Last week I had to work a lot of overtime because one of the ladies at work was on vacation and another one was in the hospital. So that left just 3 of us to do all the work at the deli. We were all tired and stressed but we made it through the week. So I really didn't have time to even get on the computer, my email box is sooooo full that it will take a while to get caught up on that. My crocheting has suffered, I'm really behind on that. We have hired a new girl so it should help slow things down a little bit. And I can get back to crocheting. :)
Has any of you ever eaten Jalapeno Cheese Bread? Well I made some yesterday, well I made 12 loaves of it. hehehe And it was sooooo good. We at the deli had to try it out first and then of course I had to buy one so that my guys could try it out at home. They absolutely loved it! I'm fixing to go make a new recipe that I was told about yesterday at work. It is a cornbread based recipe. If it turns out good I'll post the recipe here so that if you would like to try it you can too!
Well when I got home last night my hubby had a suprise for me. :) Yes it was a Dale Earnhardt Jr. purse! Isn't he so sweet?! He then told me that he was going to try and get me a Kasey Kahne purse and possibly a Tony Stewart purse and some more Nascar stuff!
Well gotta go and COOK!

A little catching up

I know, I know, it's been a while. But it seems I've had so much going on that I just haven't had time to post. So I'll try to catch up today...

I was so busy at work before Easter, that I was working a lot, and by the time I would get home I was just too tired to get online. Since the holiday is over is has slowed down some.

I didn't get to go see Tony Stewart, :( but there were people that starting camping out the day before at 2 in the afternoon. One of the ladies that work at the car dealership, works out at Curves, I also workout there. And she said he did end up signing more than 500 autographs but he was arrogant and didn't even thank his fans for coming to see him. That was on Friday. Then on Saturday Kenny Wallace was there. He was very friendly and had all the women eating out of his hands. He thanked all of his fans and actually talked to them. I should have tried to gone to see him. But I had to work that day.

My crocheting has suffered. I have got to do a little but not very much. I have probably gotten about 1/3 of my shirt done and I haven't even picked up my afghan in probably over 2 weeks. So I'm really behind on that. And the only pictures that I have taken are of my cat. He was sleeping on the back of the couch with his feet hanging off of the pillow. It was so cute that I couldn't resist taking it! LOL... Well I tried to post it but blogger won't let me. Maybe my next post.

My week and Nascar

I tried to post this yesterday, but again blogger wouldn't let me so I'm trying again...
Well I tired to post again twice yesterday and again blogger wouldn't let me. So I have contacted blogger but I haven't heard from them yet and I still don't know if this will post. But I'm trying!!

I've only gotten 1 of the scrubbies half done. I was really wanting to finish it last night, but I was just to tired, so I went to bed at 9:30. Yes I know that is early but this old woman was tired. LOL. I do feel much better this morning. I haven't even worked on the CTC ghan this week, and do you realize that this is the last week in March? So I have got some serious crocheting to do this week. I have Monday off, so guess what I will be doing Monday? That's right crocheting and doing housework. Yes the housework never ends! I have to work today and I have given my guys a list of cleaning to have done before I get home. Well see how that goes. But I'm sure I'll be doing most of it tomorrow. I haven't had a chance to work on my 100 list this week. Ok maybe I should have said last week. At work I had to pull extra hours because we had a very big inspection on Friday. The guy that was doing the inspection rates your department on a scale of 1 to 10 and he said he doesn't give out 10's (that is the best you could get). The deli received two 9's! Yeah! The manager was so proud of the whole store that he is going to do something special for all of us. Oh yeah the whole store done great! Well since I have to work today I don't get to watch Nascar, but next week guess who I am going to meet? Tony Stewart!!! Yes, he is coming to Batesville, because if you are a Nascar fan you know that Mark Martin is from Batesville and he has a car lot in Batesville, and some of the drivers come to the car lot to sign autographs and meet the fans. I missed Kasey Kahne, and I absolutely am a big fan of Kasey's! Now if I could only meet Dale Jr.! Oh how sweet that would be. :) And of course I'll share photos of Tony and hopefully I'll be right next to him. I was planning on going to Taladaga this year but since I'm working at a new job I can't go, so next year you can guess when I'm taking my vacation! My sister is going to go with us cause she is also a big Dale Jr. fan. She was standing in his driveway getting her picture made and guess who happen to drive by? Yes, Dale Jr. himself. He waved at her, and her picture was taken at that moment and you could see the shock on her face. Now I have met Mark Martin many years ago, and that was before he was a pro driver. Many years ago my dad used to be a truck driver for Mark's dad. We had went over to their house for some reason and I met him then. I have seen him racing here in Batesville on the dirt track. We use to go to the races almost every weekend when I was younger.

Well I've rambled enough today, so I better get going and get my day started.... Till next time.....
