Unplanned Busy Week

This has been a strange week. Originally I was suppose to only get one shift due to slow sales, however because of A LOT of Valentine's Day stock that had to be put out before the head manager comes on Monday, I got more hours.

More hours= More money. Yay!

I actually enjoyed looking at all the new Valentine's Day stuff, even though I don't really decorate for the holiday or do much besides handing out Valentine cards. Funny thing that I notice, a lot of Valentine decorations/crafts have frogs and cupcakes. I guess it's because the frog is suppose to be the prince you kiss and find true love? As for the cupcakes, I'm assuming that's due to when kids bring cupcakes to school for Valentine's Day parities. (Although, my aunt told me at her Elementary school the kids aren't allowed to bring in any sweet or junk food for parities anymore. @_@)

Still, it's like they're becoming symbols like ghosts and mummies are for Halloween.

With that said, I am now craving cupcakes which is bad because I'm trying to lose weight. XD Maybe I can just draw them and that will be enough to satisfy me.


By the way, thanks to everyone who replied to my post regarding having to put my dog Abby down. I appreicate all your thoughts and comments. I am a lot better now, it just feels weird without her, especially for routine.

Old morning routine: Make coffee, feed Abby and give her pill, refill water dish, eat breakfast and make her go outside.

New morning routine: Make coffee and eat breakfast.

...It's way too easy. Stu and I do want to get another dog, but not now it's too soon and I would prefer getting one after we have our own place. Anyway, again, thanks to all who commented. At least I know Abby is in a better place.
