FUN SATURDAY

I was originally supposed to work from 9am-5pm at PetSmart on Saturday. But when I went in to work at the movie theater on Wednesday - I saw that my GM had posted a "manager meeting" sign on the door - for THAT Saturday. The manager meeting would be from 10:30am until 12pm - right in the middle of my PetSmart shift.

I called my sister right away and asked her what her schedule was for Saturday - Michelle told me she was off - I told her she now had an 8 hour shift. LOL.

So, Shelly (my nickname for Michelle) worked my 9-5 shift on Saturday.

I woke up at 9:30am on Saturday, hopped in the shower - and was getting dressed when I reached for my phone to remind my ride (my aunt Marti) that she needed to pick my up in 10 minutes when I noticed I had a text message.

I clicked the message - it was from my GM: "At the doctor's with my daughter. meeting canceled".

I called my ride to tell her not to pick me up.

I would have been really irritated by the cancellation if I hadn't had other "Fun" plans to do on Saturday - Such as a 7 year old's Birthday party.

Since I was off on Saturday (except for the meeting) I had called my friend Debbie on Thursday to let her know I could now attend her "Granddaughter" Rachel's Party (it started at 2pm).

The party was nothing crazy- thank goodness. 6 adults and 3 kids total at the party. Rachel loved the gifts I got her- and so did the adults at the party!! All the Moms' were looking at the books I'd found - excited to get them for their kids. It made me laugh -I don't have children of my own -so who would have guessed I'd get such a good find?

The party was about 2 hours long and then Rachel left with her "Other" grandma (not Debbie) to have a sleepover with one of her younger family members.

That left me, Debbie, and Rachel's Mom - her name is Michelle (like my sister) at the house.

So what wild and crazy thing did we 3 ladies do with no guys or kids in the house?

That's right! We played Monopoly!

P.S. I lost- Debbie won. LOL.

I love Monopoly! Sometimes, however, I do not appreciate it when the game goes on on on forever and nobody wins. ;)
