Yay! We've made it to Wednesday and you know what that means. It means we're even closer to the weekend...wooo! Not that it means a whole lot to me because at my job, I get to work weekends. So, not real sure why Wednesday is a big deal to me.
After my vent yesterday things have sort of improved. My husband was able to finally get hold of his commander and get contact information to people who could start getting his paperwork ready in order for him to come home. I guess this is the downside to him being a FAO, he doesn't have a unit that he reports to. So everything he does has to go through a satellite unit essentially and sometimes things get "overlooked". Because his classes overseas end at such an odd time in comparison to when he'll start ACS it throws things into a funk. The people who cut orders generally assume that he wouldn't be done until June and then he'd start ACS in August. Uh, no...he'll be a part of the final presentation on the 17th of this month and then he's all done. So while I still don't have an exact return date for him, it makes me feel a little better just knowing that someone is starting to get things moving so he can get back home. We'll cross the other bridges as we get to them.
I did tell management today at work what to expect upon his return so that they know why I request "x" number of days off without hassle. Not that I expected any hassle from them anyway because 1.) it's a great company to work for and 2.) our store management team is just awesome to work with anyways. Knowing that when I do get an exact return date, that I'll have no problems asking for some time off work to spend with him, that is just amazing.
Speaking of work...
I really do love my job. I'm a sales associate for BBW. How many people can actually say that they enjoy their job? I can and I love that! I'm such a fan of their products that it makes it exciting for me to be there. I get to turn my love of their products into other people loving it too. You will never, I repeat...NEVER, hear or read about me talking up current or upcoming sales as well as talking about new products that will be coming out. All you'll get from me is a statement advising that you go to their website or visit your local store and check out the things happening there. Sorry. I guess technically I wasn't even supposed to say where I work at, but I don't foresee my blog going nationwide or viral, so I think I'll be okay. And if you don't know what BBW is, then please don't ask me to tell you, because...well...confidentiality agreements and me keeping my job are kind of important to me.
I know this is a longer posting, but bear with me a little bit longer.
Dinner tonight was originally going to be something made with ground turkey. However; after straightening up the house a little bit, I decided that maybe we just need to have a night off from cooking and cleaning up afterward. So we ordered pizza and wings from Pizza Hut. I love their Hawaiian Luau pizza! Their honey bbq and spicy asian wings are delicious as well. And that was what we ordered. I expect a phone call from the delivery driver any minute now asking how to get to our house. It always happens because our street is still not on any GPS or mapping systems, yet it's been here for years. Go figure.
Well, I think that's it for tonight. I'm going to go watch some of our recorded shows and wait for the pizza to show up. I might even talk to my husband tonight on Skype. We'll see.
