Choices

My district manager wants me to transfer to the nichol avenue store for a raise, I'm not sure how much. I have to call her after two today and speak with her about it. Well the nichol avenue store has been robbed about five times in the past year or so and all around that neighborhood there are reported crimes. They only want me to stay there for a month and I can keep my raise even when I go back to my store but I'm not sure if it's worth it. Jocelyn says that I shouldn't do it because if anything happens to me then what would happen to Aaralynn, she doesn't have a  dad and she might even end up in foster care. But my promotion is also on the line, if I don't go then the district manager will think I'm not that commited to my job and she won't promote me to shift supervisor. It's just a tough decision to make, I have worked at that store before and I don't think it's that bad but everyone else says they see in the news everyday about a crime around there. Who knows, maybe we can come to a compromise, hopefully things work out!

Sick

Ugh! My throat is sore and I keep coughing. Last night I had to work with my voice scratchy going in and out. Which wasn't a big deal because I was on front and I don't have to talk a whole lot. But my manager didn't schedule anyone to close last night so I had to close front then close carry out because she doesn't have enough closers. That completely sucked because we are always busy on thursdays and there is a lot to do with closing. But aside from that I had to go on carry out register. Trying to talk to people through a speaker sucks. Especially when they ask you questions and can clearly hear that I'm sick. Everytime I tried to say fries it only came out halfway because my voice would squeak then go out. Of course my manager thought that was pretty funny and wouldn't talk to the customer for me because he is mean. But today my voice isn't cracking as much but I can't really talk and it sucks. Tyler keeps telling me to go get medicine but until after school today I just didn't have time so after my last class I'm off to get yucky medicine that I hate so much :/ hopefully I will feel better though.

Also, I wanted to talk about the multi genre essay. I decided on a topic and started it and I really like the openness of it. It doesn't necessarily have to flow and it can be written in so many different ways which keeps it from being boring. Of course, it's gonna take a while to do which is not fantastic but at least when I do it I won't dread it.

November 21st

This would be miss Aaralynn's birth date. I'm very excited that she is getting so big and very smart, she is a wonderful little girl. The theme of her birthday party is going to be Alice in Wonderland. I ordered her a dress and Ellen will be taking her pictures. Ellen is Jocelyn's daughter, Jocelyn runs the daycare Aaralynn goes to. Ellen has a very big tea cup that is light blue and white like Aaralynn's dress so the pictures are going to be adorable!! We are planning on getting the pictures taken tomorrow morning. Hopefully I can put a couple on here soon. Dena (my cousin who is constantly at the daycare because other than work she has no life) wants the decorations to be black and red. I told her that is leaning more towards Queen of Hearts and not Alice which is basically the theme. Well, I'm off to make the guest list!!
