--~--Weekend Update--~--

Friday - We didn't do all that much. Thought about going to a movie but Shaun was too tired.

Saturday - We went to Mequon (Northwest of Oshkosh) for Shaun's mom's side family reunion. It was by a lake and it was really pretty. I played a little D for kickball with all of the little kids. Wish we had brought a suit, the lake looked lovely. We stopped in Fond du Lac so Shaun could play a round of disc golf. He had just ordered one offline so he wanted to try it out. He was disappointed that it was dimpled (so it wouldn't fly as well). Then we went back to Plymouth and ate supper at Antoinette's. Shaun had a panini that he said was really good and I had fettucine alfredo that was meah. No flavor. Then once again we debated about going to a movie but Shaun still didn't feel like it. I wanted to see the Wedding Crashers since I've heard it's funny but Shaun doesn't want to really. Even though I saw Willy Wonka with him. :( Boys.

Sunday - Going to sleep Saturday we had said that we were going to go to church in the morning, but when I woke up I didn't feel like getting stared at. So we didn't go. We left at 11:30-ish to go to Milwaukee. I needed red shirts for work. Shaun told me to get only one, but there was no way I was only going to have one red shirt for 5 days of work. Lots of washing. Finally found some, one at JC Penny and two at Old Navy, even though those were more maroonish. I was hoping that they would work. Then after supper we went to the Gallagher's to socialize Callie with their dog Abby. Well Abby was on a leash and was intimidated by Callie (I guess last time C humped A - Leanne was disturbed by that but I had just read an article saying that it's a dominance thing) so all she did was cower. So they took Abby off of the leash and the dogs chased each other around the yard, then Abby took off. And ran down the road. There were 5 people chasing her. She's a miniature poodle, and she can jump and run super fast. Took 20 minutes for Leanne to catch her finally. after that we kept her on a leash but let her drag it, same with C. They're easier to catch that way. But they started getting along by the end of the evening. Which is good since over vacation C is going to stay at the Gallagher's. Then we came home and I nearly finished the book I was reading.

Today - Went to Target at 8:30 and went through orientation. A retired lady named Nancy went through it with me. I have no idea what to claim on my W2. Grr. But I did get the 20 - 28th off for burying my Grandma and vacation. And Jenny Mickey's wedding. From now on I have to make sure I request time off three weeks in advance, so if you want to hang out with me, you'll have to let me know that far in advance! Haha. Which reminds me, I have to make sure I get homecoming weekend off! Kristin, the HR executive was my age or a little older, but not by much. Then I was re-introduced to Jason who interviewed me for Team Lead position, which I obviously didn't get. But I get a discount on everything, on sale or not. Which is cool. But bad, too. I found out shades of red are O.K. for shirts, as long as they aren't pink, purple or orange. So I guess maroon is alright. And of course they don't give me two days off in a week. Lots of 5-11 shifts. Yeuck. Oh, well. Hopefully after training I can ask for less evening hours, but they told me that they think 3-4 nights a week when I interviewed, so I doubt it.


:::Edit: I stand corrected. We went to Waupaca, not Mequon. I can't keep all of these crazy Wisconsin names straight. They all sound the same to me, whether they start with a W or M.

Also, I've walked. 1.2 miles so far- and that was just at Target! WITH 4 hours of sitting. This job should be good for me!
