Weather, Work & Birthday Stuff

It's snowing again. In the almost two years that we've lived here, this is the first time the snow has stuck around for longer than a day. K.C. took Wed-Fri off this week so he's home with us so I don't have to worry about him out on the roads. Today is my usual grocery shopping/errand day since I'm off but we decided not to get out in it with the girls. It's just not safe around here! I had a lot to do too - get my jewelry cleaned, go to the bank, etc. Instead, we are snuggled in for the day - which isn't all bad. Sydney's Little Gym class has been cancelled for tonight and K.C. hit Safeway earlier so we'd have a few things to get us through the weekend, so we have absolutely no place to be for the rest of the day. How nice is that?!

Last night at work the supervisor told me that she thought I was a good worker and has already told the deli manager that:) That helps! And I found out who the guy was that I mentioned in an earlier post. He's only one of the Assistant warehouse managers. You know, no one important - just the second in command type:) I still have no idea why he talked to me. He didn't say a word to me last night when he was signing off on the deli.

We got The Little Gym reserved for Sydney's birthday party! We decided to do it there because A: We had $100 in gift cards we got for enrolling in the Spring semester early and they can't be used for 'tuition' and B: she loves it so much and our house is just too small to hold everyone that we wanted to invite. This way she can have 20 friends join her for some play time. We invited a couple of my high school classmates that live in this area and have young kids so we hope they can make it. It should be fun. We are encouraging the invitees to make a donation in Sydney's name to The Children's Hospital or St. Jude Children's Research Hospital instead of bringing a gift. We just feel that they get what they need and want from us and family year round so their birthday parties should be all about their friends taking time out of their busy schedules to help them celebrate. And that in itself is gift enough! Plus, the kids that will benefit from any donations made is such a more important gift than anything they could ever unwrap! Without a doubt!

So, that's all that's going on around here! I'm curious if I'll be able to make it to work tomorrow night. K.C. called the office and I guess Issaquah was getting dumped on. We shall see I guess!

By the way, can you believe that Christmas is less than a week away now?! Holy Holly Berries!
