I swear I saw a moose on my way to work on Sunday! I've seen it before but it was dark that time so I didn't get a good look at it other than it was HUGE and couldn't have been a deer. This time it was mid-morning and for reasons I still can't figure out, I only saw the rear of it and not it's head! It was walking across the street so I got a full on side view. I'm sure glad I wasn't any closer since that would mean it would've been in my windshield! I'm sure I was daydreaming because once I figured out what it was that I was seeing (I was focused on the legs for some reason - hee hee, I must be a leg girl. That was terrible!) I started fumbling in my purse for my camera. Only to remember that, like the car seats, the camera stays with the kids. So then I was trying to grab my cell phone. The picture quality would have sucked but at least I would have had a picture! Right about then the Lock Ness Moose started trotting off into the woods. I started to speed up to try to catch it but then the thought ran through my head that maybe he/she had a friend/calf(?) not far behind. So I took it slow while I called K.C. to report my sighting. I figured I fumbled around for my phone enough so I may as well use it for something!
Wednesday I go in for cashier training! I'm looking forward to it...hoping it won't be as physical a job as the cashier assistant. It kind of sucks though because I go in at 8 a.m. and training will last around two hours but then I have to go back and work a shift that night at 5! Waste of gas - but I'm not hanging out in Issaquah all day with two toddlers either!
My friend Jody that I do Stroller Strides with works in the office (payroll) and helped me get the job - or at least helped my application get through to the interview process. Anyway, she was pulling into the parking lot for ss today and got hit by a truck (while in her vehicle that is)! Her and Claire were okay but it spun her car 1/4 of a turn. I was getting Sydney in the stroller at the time and wasn't too far away so the adrenaline got to pumping in me like I had been in the accident. I think she ended up getting the ticket because she was making a left and the truck had the right away - no matter how fast he was going! Scary stuff!
Let's see....what else was I going to tell you about.....Oh, we were almost going to make a trip to Colorado in two weeks! K.C. has to go for work so planted the idea in my head that maybe the girls and I could come along and we'd make a long weekend out of it. I got all excited and immediately requested the time off. He had second thoughts after looking up airline prices (not bad but not really what we should be spending money on right now) so I was still holding out hope that we could make it work. We can't so the girls and I will stay here and hold down the fort for a night. I guess the good thing about it is that I'll get one extra night off - maybe more! I told them I could work the weekend now so we'll see if I make it on the schedule or not. I'm sure I will!
Tonight was slow so I actually got to go home about 45 minutes early! And what did I do with my extra time? I laid on the couch and got caught up on my shows (LOVE our dvr!). Oh my, now it's almost 1 a.m. so I'd better head to bed - those girls will have me up for all day in a few short hours!
