Good morning, everyone!!!
Things are beginning to turn around. I try to stay away from saying things like, "It couldn't get any worse," because frankly, it can, and when you set your mind to thinking it can't, well, life has a way of showing you, yep, it can. We hit that point yesterday of seeing just how much worse it could get then suddenly, there was the silver lining. Things began getting fixed, even in the midst of being down to one register for a few days :)
It's doable, and we're making it work. That's what is important. I walk through those doors in the morning these days just expecting to have to submit another ticket, LOL. It is what it is.
Four more work days and I get a break from the insanity :) It is an insanity, however, that I don't mind, even though it does make things tough once in awhile.
Sometimes the hard stuff gives you insight into the fact you are only human and one day you will look back on some of this stuff and laugh. It also proves you can survive and keep moving forward. Even though things have been falling apart, other things have been looking up, so I consider that a win win.
I was able to get my bookwork done in record time, even though, I also had to deal with so many things breaking. Like yesterday, we had to close the store for a few minutes because one register refused to give up a report, sending the other register back in time, which it also refused to give up a report, locking it up. Then we put our collective heads together, figured out what to do, and did it. Store back open, one register completely down, but the other register working. Life moved on...
Today is another day...
We're still in deep freeze mode around here. From my understanding it will be a little while yet, which is fine. I'm not fond of it being this cold, but it is what it is. I layer my socks to keep my feet warm, layer my clothes to keep my body warm. It works. This weather makes Baby Bear very frisky, LOL. He loves the deep freeze just like his brother. The nice thing is, they also know momma gets a bit cold so they are willing to cuddle a bit more to keep me warm :)
Well time to get this day going, keep your fingers crossed it is a 'normal' day...
Everyone have a lovely day!!!
Blessings to all!!!
