Okay  Two weeks in a row I am off to a good start!  This last week was exhausting.  Not only was it the busiest week for business but I got a Regional visitor tour my store before Thanksgiving, as well a 2 DM visits--Thank goodness all of the visits were good. The last time I had a regional visit I had only been in the store 2 months and was starting to make progress in turning the store around but not enough in their eyes, so a good visit this time was fantastic.  The kids spent the night at my in-laws the night before Thanksgiving because Nick and I had to work at 4am, and I hate that.  Not only does my mother-in-law bathe them any chance she gets(she has a way of making it seem as though the kids are dirty any time we send them over), she actually cut Kali's hair!  Kali came running to me when I got there and her bangs were cut mid forhead and curled so it looked as though she had 1/4" bangs. I try to think its no big deal bu it really irritates me when she takes liberties.  Knowing that I hate them spending the night, Nick ambushed me in front of everyone asking me if they could spend the night again, so they did...When I picked them up the next day, Marian acts as though she did me this huge favor by having them, and after I told her my parents were in town and I did not appreciate the ambush to look like a jerk in front of everyone she had the nerve to say," Well they saw Marty and John, so atleast they saw family, even if it wasn't your parents, but I am sorry they did not see them." ?Malicious?, or could she possible be that inconsiderate and stupid to not know that she insulted me? I am more inclined to think she really did not think before she spoke. It was great though to just be able to talk with Mom, without having the kids running around us. So, that was my week. It was good, other thatn the few hiccups with the sleepovers, and the "fun" of being busy at work(I had over 400 people come in at 6am for Black friday) Until I write again....
