Ok so I haven't updated for awhile because I have been quite busy. I will take is step by step and see how much I end up writing. I will be going to do this in topics.
WORK: Well there has been alot happening at work. We had a fist fight one night, I didn't see it I just heard it from a distance and the cops were called. One of the guys had a BB gun as well, that looked alot like a reall gun. Then we have had several cashiers that are really trying to rebel and not do their job. One refused service to a customer, although that is not what she said. The customer came up to the Service desk and said that that cashier called us liers. That set me off right then and there. After the customer was taken care of I talked to this cashier and told her that what she did was unacceptable. Then the rest of us CSM's discussed it alittle bit more and decided to have a meeting with the Asst. Mgr and her, to possibly coach her. When we were in the meeting she denied that she turned the customer away and insted told him that she would get help and then turned around and took her trash, giving the customer the idea that she was blowing him off. We told her that no matter what she was doing the customer always comes first! She ended up quiting a couple days later. Other than those major things happening life at Walmart is very slow and boring. We are waiting for the summer for everything to pick up!
THE BROKER: On Valentines day we went to the Broker. For those of you who live out of Colorado, The Broker is a very expensive restraunt, meaning $39 - $60 a plate! We had a great time and the best part is that we didn't have to pay a dime!! Aflac paid! It was great to have a bit of a valentines day where we didn't have to pay and we could have a some what romantic evening. ah yummy!!
AFLAC STATE THING: The night after Valetines there was a state get-together to rally all the employes for the next year! There was a catered dinner, which was decent. Then they gave out prizes and talked for a long time before finally opening up the dance floor. Mikel at that time was so tired so I asked if we could dance for a little bit he said alright. We went and requested a swing song.The first few songs they played were quite dumb, I mean how the heck are you to dance to "I'm Bringing Sexy Back" By Justin Timberlake (sorry for those who like this song)? I could figure it out at all. Finally they played the electric slide, then I think it's called the cha cha slide. Then our song came on Zut Suit Riot. I got a kick out of the fact that Mikel and I were the only ones on the dance floor!! We got applauded when were finished, I though it was hiliarious.
DILLON: Dillon is doing well. He is walking like crazy and loving fun. He loves to go outside and play with the kitty. We also finally got him a new seat thanks to his aunt! She wanted him to have a new seat so she gave us some money so we could get him a seat. It was great. It is so nice to have a new seat for him.
Anyway life is alright for now ta ta for now!

Book Review...Weekend...
I have just read the best book that I have read in a long time! It's called Twilight By Stephenie Meyer! I am not a huge fan of vampires, unlike my husband, but I actually liked the book. I though it was pretty neat to have a love story involving a vampire and his family! Several years ago I would never have picked it up but for some reason after hearing other friends review this book I decided to give it a try. It was totally worth it. So for any of you who are unsure about reading a book with vampires, this is unlike any other book you have ever read in your life. It is not very aggressive.
Life here has been quite crazy! Dillon never ceses to amaze me with all that he does! This past weekend I was invited to my SIL's baby shower. From this sister it was a huge deal for her to at least invite me. We didn't excatly get off on the right foot when Mikel and I got married. Then again her and Mikel were not getting a long very well as well, which didn't help. Anyway one of Mikel's other sisters, Rachel, invited me to carpool with her, since Mikel had to work, so I took her up on that. We had so much fun riding up and chatting. Our relationship has come a long way as well. She and I also didn't get along right away as well, but it is better now. Rachel picked me up early so that she could be there to set up for the baby shower. I had fun being with her and with the rest of his family. We were the first ones to arrive for the baby shower so we got started getting things set up, and of course while I was trying to help set up Dillon was wanting my full attention. As soon as the rest of the family arrived then the aunts were there to watch him and keep him company while I finished helping out. Dillon did well though, he kept wanting the crackers, cheese and anything else he could get his hands on! The baby shower went well though. After it was over we got things cleaned up and then Rachel, Emily (another SIL), Dillon and I were off to head home. Emily was coming home with me to watch Dillon until Mikel got home because I had to work that night as well. We were starting to get kinda short on time so Rachel stopped to get some dinner for us, that way I could get something to eat before going to work. When we got home I basically ate and ran so that I could get to work on time.
The next day, Sunday, Emily came with us to Church. Mikel was teaching our class that day so she decided to hang out with him and be with the kids. I was with Dillon in nursery, he dosen't go in quite yet but it is way boring staying out in the hallway so we let him play with the kids, and he loves it! Then after church was over we went home and put Dillon down for a nap. Mikel decided he wanted to play WoW, so Emily and I played Dancing with the Stars on the PS2. Then we woke Dillon up to go up to Lakewood to drop off Emily and see the family again. We got about 10 minutes out, when the car started over heating. so we pulled over and called my FIL, he is a machanic. He came down with Mark (BIL) to see what was going on. Before they arrieved there was a firefighter in his 20's I believe to see if her could come and help, he was worried that it was going to be a car fire, because Mikel opened the cap to the alternater (I believe that is what it is, it is the one that the coolant goes into) and it steamed. When my FIL and BIL came they were unsure what had happened but they got some more coolant and put it in and drained a little out as well. Then it worked. who knew. We heard that here was a roll over on C470, the highway were going to take, so we think that maybe it was a blessing that it over heated when it did, and not later by that crash! We still made it up to Lakeweood we just took a different route. It was quite the weekend though.
Work for me has been crazy there have been rumors going around about cashiers and other people and there are so many people that a gossipers and it is so annoying. People are so inconsiderate! I just don't get it!!
