Crazy how that works...

So why is it that I feel like the team lead at work and I'm not the team lead? Because not particularly everyday, but oftener then not I'll constantly have people as in co-workers who will always come to me rather then the actual team lead or our supervisor. So I'm always instructing people on how to do stuff or giving them things that they could be doing rather then sitting around. I half wonder if it's more because they don't like going to higher authority because they feel silly asking them. And so because I'm nice or happen to be close by they ask me and know that they're get the right answer. So that could be why, but it's wierd how that works :)

Crazy Stuff...

So basically all of last week I had this cold and so I slept it off basically. But then on friday at work I started having my voice sound really froggy and stuff. So then on sathurday at about an hour before I was suppose to leave I basically lost my voice. It was pretty terrible and on sunday it actually got worse, so I went to church but was trying to avoid talking to people. But of course tons of people kept trying to talk to me about mission calls and such, so I had to keep explaining that I had a bad cold. I basically was going to call in sick today, but when I woke up it was basically gone and I could talk again. So then I went to work and the only times it would kind of get bad would be if I were trying to talk alot to someone. And so I avoided that for the most part and yeah it's pretty much gone, which is amazing for how bad it was yesterday. I was glad though that I wasn't going to have to lose hours this week at work. For some reason I seem to be having alot of close calls this spring on getting ill, but somehow I've never had to call in sick.

Mission call finally came...

As you all should be aware I finally got my mission call to Tacoma Washington and I'm leaving May 19, 2010. At the moment May seems pretty far off, although it is like the end of March now...haha!! Anyways, I was kind of hoping that I wouldn't go until June due to funds and such, but hopefully that turns out okay. But now that sister M. has left it's suddenly seeming very near and I have to say that it is kind of sad to think of leaving and going where I know zero people. But it'll be fine I'm sure...:) But there terribly sad thing is that I looked it up and there are three temples in Washington, and none of them are in my mission...can you believe that? One is in Seattle, Spokane and one down south eastward. It's terribly sad, but it's a common curse in the family, since sister A. didn't have one in hers, sister M. has one in Guatamala City and that's not part of her mission. Anyways, that's the news for the time being and I guess that I should head to work now that I have to close. Yuck, I don't know which is worse working really early at 8 am or until 9 pm...but I have to say that I by far prefer 8 am because then you have time left in the day to do stuff after work. Well got to go...have fun you all!!

Why oh why?

It's so sad when you meet really cool people and suddenly things happen so you disconnect. Basically at DI there is a girl that I've become friends with and we get along really good. So anyways, because it's DI they're trying to get people looking for more permanant jobs and such all the time. And this girl went to a job interview at a place that her brother works at a few weeks ago so she should find out this weekend if she got it. Apparently if they don't call her back then her brother is going to say something, because he gets along really well with the managers and has been there for two years. So most likely she'll get the job and it's really sad because she was one of the ones I was friends with and now she's going to leave. But there is a new girl that started last week who for some reason we hit it off really well and so it's fun working with her too. Although she's only part time and only works at night so I only see her about two or three times a week since I don't work every night. But it's sad when you meet people and then suddenly they're gone.

Mondays are the greatest day to be off on...

So I was off today at work, although it's annoying when they put me off on monday. But anyways it turned out to be a very good thing, because yesterday I had a ear ache and just a strange achy feeling. So I figured if I just slept a ton it would all leave by today, well this morning it was alot worse. I woke up with a ear ache, head ache, and symptoms of the flu it appeared. So yeah, at about 11 a.m. I decided that I had to sleep more so I had to sleep half the day to even get it to leave. Very annoying...but a good thing I was off or I probably would have had to have called in sick today at work and that wouldn't have been a good thing. Just hopefully it's gone by tomorrow all the way, since it's mostly gone now but still slightly there. I just hope I don't have ear infection since usually that's the only reason why I get ear aches. So annoying if that's the case since I'd have to go to the doctor and take $50.00 out of my so called missionary fund. Which at the moment is a rather small mission fund, $600.00 compared to $7000.00 isn't very much and wouldn't be appreciated if some had to be taken out :(

Life is life...

I've just been working at DI...which hasn't been bad at all. In fact it's been pretty good and generally it goes by really fast. So I'll be there and then glance up to see that it's lunch break and then it's suddenly time to leave. It's nice after being at jobs that drag on forever and you're so glad when you can quit the job. I think alot of it has to do with not having a job for awhile and now I'm just glad to have a job. And the Sales Floor is alot more interesting then the back, since I ran around doing stuff all the time compared to just standing in one spot for hours on end every day.
Along with that I was off today at work and so I went to the temple to do some family names. I have to say that my bishop must have been inspired to let me go through early...since it just about didn't happen. But the reason why I say that is because these names I've been doing had their baptizm/confirmations done like two years ago. So if I weren't doing them it might have taken another six months or more to get through them all. But it's very easy for me to go since the Logan temple is like three blocks off so very easy to get to. It's been great fun and somewhat confusing...but I was happy today that I finally get alot of it. Well I actually don't get to much of it, but I see the meaning to some of it now. Anyways, that's all I can say since we don't share temple stuff with the outside world...right?
But I turned in my mission papers yesterday...or they were supposed to be turned in...so we'll see how that goes. Somehow I see it being in the states...so you know it'll be interesting to find out what happens in that regard.
But other then that I haven't been doing to much...I should study for the GRE but it's hard to when I wake up in time to head off to work and then when I get home I either go to institute class, or am really tired and yeah you know how it goes. Anyways farewell to you all...:)
