My first full week of work

Well I have been at Dillard's for a little over a week now, and I must say it is kind of boring. At Albertsons, I was never at a loss for something to do. There was always something to do. Here there is alot of do nothing time. I don't know what to do with myself. I see the the other employees talking to each other, wondering around, reading magazines. I just don't feel right about it. I find myself wondering through my department straightening and re straighting, you can only do this so many times. I am not sure if I like the job or not. I like the fact that I am working again, man I miss working. But I am not sure this is the place for me. My brain is not trained to work this way. At Dillard's there is no one to really train you, at Albertsons there was always someone to help you. I had great trainers there. Dennis although he didn't have the greatest people skills was a good mentor, and here I have no mentor. I think I am better served at a grocery store. This is what I know, this is what I do. I am not giving up on Dillard's, but I hope it gets better. We are also trying to get into a routine at home. I am trying to get dinner done for everyone before I leave, and with the kids having things at night hubby is doing alot of soccer mom activities. LOL I don't think he cares for it much. I am having trouble keeping up with the house and work and the kids. I cant seem to get a system going. For those of you who know me, you know that this is not like me. I need order in my life for things to run smoothly, and this is putting a kink in things. I know it will get better I hope that it happens soon.
We had a guest in our house yesterday, I walked out the front door and there was a yellow lab standing there. She was very sweet. She obviously had a family, she was groomed, her teeth were clean and she was plump and friendly. So I left her outside, but she wouldn't leave. So I called the pound to see if anyone had reported her. Nope! I called the reclaim center, nope! SO I took her to the vet to see if she had a chip, nope. So I let her stay the night, this afternoon I let her out and she left. I hope she went home. I looked for her but didn't see her, so I hope she found her people, or they found her. The kids of course loved her Lainey even had her in her bed today it was sweet. They need a dog to play with. We have buster, but he doesn't play. He is old and he doesn't want to be around the kids.
well that is all for tonight. Till next time remember to hug and kiss your family and tell them you love them, today is gone and tomorrow may never come................
