Our annual day off for shopping
Every year Kel and I take a day off of work, in the middle of the week, to do our Christmas shopping. (or holiday shopping for you all to PC people)
Yeasterday was that day. We always pray for snow that day. A few years back it snowed a few feet the night before we went, and it was fantastic! We encountered no lines anywhere! But no such luck this year, just a shitty, cold and rainy day. We didn’t see any really long lines anywhere, which is why we go when we do. We got most of our shopping done by noon, which was awesome. We don’t mess around when it comes to shopping. The guy at one store was shocked when he found out we had all that stuff, and we had only been there about 20 minutes or so. We power shop.
But anyway, we almost got it all done, and we didn’t spend that much. (not that much in our terms is a fortune to many at Christmas time) We just have so many people to buy for.
Is the bonus coming?
Right now, there is an office wide meeting going on the conference room. Ken and I were not asked to join. We’re hoping this is the Christmas bonuses. We’re also hoping that we will at some time today, be asked in. lol. It sure would suck, not to get one this year. We’re pretty sure Kel’s not getting one, unless she’s good at Kareoke (long story). So we’re kind of counting on mine. That’s the reason I’m NOT going to get one though, because we need it. Isn’t that alwyas the way?
