Unexpected day off……….

Yippeee! It was great! For those of you who don’t know I am a bus monitor for special needs preschoolers. Well anyways our first pickup is about and hour away, we are almost there and a parent calls my cell and tells me school is on a 2 hour delay! Yuck that stinks I am thinking, we will be stuck sitting around for 2 hours and then school will be so short that we won’t be able to go home inbetween runs. Well then I get a phone call saying school was cancelled so I only worked 2 hours this morning and had the rest of the day to myself! I got most of my Christmas decorating done. I have been slow at it this year, can’t quite get into the spirit of it, but I am now looking around and seeing all my Santas (I collect santas)! Hopefully hubby and I will put the tree up tonight and then I should be JOLLY!!

Had a great weekend! Friday night hubby and I went to his company party for his weekend job! He has a lot of nice coworkers there and a nice boss! He got a nice bonus and he has only been there since May!

On the other hand the Company Christmas Party for our job was on Saturday night! We did not attend! I have no regrets in that department! Last year over 40 people attended and this year by the time people decided if they were attending or not it was down to 28 people signed up! Well I talked to a friend who decided to attend and only 14 people showed up! I guess the boss was fit to be tied, and so was the witch who had planned the party!! Myself I think it is pretty funny! What goes around comes around and now maybe she will get start getting her just due! She wanted to do it on her own, didn’t want to hear anyone elses suggestions so I guess she wasn’t the best party planner!! I hear the food sucked too!!

Well I am off to finish cleaning up my mess from decorating before hubby gets home from work!

Have a good one!

    Glad you enjoyed your extra day off. How are all the grandchildren? Wish mine weren’t so darn old. What’s Christmas without little ones? At 22 and 18, I am giving mine the gift that one size fits all….money. No complaints, no exchanges. And remember, be kind to your enemies. It will drive them crazy! Hugs, Marge

    I’m glad you had some extra time for yourself. Isn’t it great when a nice gift like a day off comes your way? It always reminds me of being a kid again and the schools are closed out of the blue for whatever reason. You just want to jump and go “yipee!”

    Cool! An unexpected day off? Nothing like that ever happens to me. You should go play the lotto, Nana-you might win! With all the luck you’ve got going on. But now that I’ve said that-you know if you play and win now you have to give me 20% of your winnings because I participated in giving you the idea to play. LOL!!! No, seriously, though…

    Glad you enjoyed your day off. The only time I will get an unexpected day off is if the snow is coming down so hard we can’t see. We have an hour drive one way so if it’s really bad it could take forever to get to the city. I still have yet to get in the Xmas spirit. We have no room in the house for a tree and our 4 rambunctious cats would just use it as a climbing pole. Perhaps I’ll decorate the office today. Take care, have a great week.
