Updates 2018/Early 2019

Ok so, since the accident in July 2017 I had to fight with the girls insurance. Actually my insurance did that and they gave me $4000 more than what her insurance offered. Went to Michigan in Oct 2017 and bought a car up there. On the drive home got a call from Bath & Body Works to offer me a seasonal position that I had applied for, of course I told her yes as I need the extra money to make car payments now. I ended up working very little as the other job would not make a schedule early enough to be on the schedule at BBW. Mom and I had to go back up to Michigan in April for Dollys memorial service, and of course while we were up there we did family dinner, finally got Mikey and Mike to join in for the dinner, first time almost ever. It was a fun night with everyone there, it sucks that we are so far away and can't do a family dinner more often.

So we are at April 2018 driving home from Michigan again, Leslie from BBW calls and tells me that one of the SLTs/Keyholders are leaving and she wants to know if I'd like to interview for the position, I was like duh YES! So when we got home I interviewed with her and then Stephanie the district manager, Leslie called later the day of my interview with Stephanie to say that they wanted to offer me the position. I took it of course, more money and hours with more days off YES PLEASE. I got scheduled for training and told them at Cross Cultures that i needed the days off or whatever for training, and there was drama. I ended up working a month or so after I gave my two weeks notice, I have zero hard feelings towards them, I just had to go where there was more money to be able to pay bills etc. So as of the current date 2-22-19 I have been with BBW a year and 4 months and April will be my year as SLT. Holidays were fun work wise lots of hours and lots of seasonal help. There were a few that weren't great but a few that I loved and have had a chance to really get to know and like. Now since the holidays and semi annual sale is over we are back to the basic smaller staff, except for floor sets.

Jan 2019 was interesting, started talking to Derek again, since him and his wife are getting divorced. He is now staying at the house again while trying to get back on his feet. He ended up in the hospital for a few days having to get a lung biopsy etc. Weds the 20th it was found out that John Adams the former owner of NEIGHBORS bar had died. Don't know what happened and its not fully my business but its sad that he is no longer here, I feel for his family and close friends, I basically just knew him from the bar and such.

The 2019/2020 season of the Broadway Across America is a bunch of good shows. Dear Evan Hansen, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Cats, Miss Saigon, Come From Away, and Aladdin. So awesome shows coming for next season, and Hamiltion is part of this season so totally bomb season as well. Ok so got to go get ready for some Irish Dance show thing in Boerne tonight. Maybe I'll update more regularly one day.
