We are here until 1:00. We have a potluck lunch today. Very relaxed here today. Hubby and kids are at home getting things ready for company this evening. I kinda like it. Otherwise, I would be doing it mostly by myself.

Way, way south.
Yes, traffic was perfect - light and no tourists from <choose your own northern state> in the left lane with their right turn signal continually on for 5 miles going 23.5 mph in a 50 mph zone with a map spread across the dash and a cell phone precariously perched on their shoulder looking around for the nearest IHOP......

I had to drive past a WalMart on my way in...it was PACKED!!! I would rather be at work than in the last minute shopping crunch at WalMart!!!

Working here until noon also. To make it even better, my CRA Wiz just did something weird and won't let me in!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO And can I find a tech person today???? Probably not!!!


Oh well, I will take the positive outlook and assume it will all be ok Monday. What's that old Scarlett O'Hara line, something about there is always tomorrow, or I'll worry about it tomorrow?


Merrry Christmas to all

We are here till 6:00. As long as fed is open, so are we. But we are only working 4 hour shifts, so I go home at 12:00. Some are coming in at 12:00, some at 2:00.

Scarlett: I can't think about that right now. If I do, I'll go crazy. I'll think about that tomorrow.

Scarlett: After all... tomorrow is another day.

We are here till 1:00 but due to the storm yesterday, we were closed. 14 to 18" of snow will do that.

We are open until 12:00 also. Is anyone getting anything done? There are so few of us here and we are all a bit punchy! Productivity level is zero!

We've been blessed with 7 Customers this morning. I doubt if anymore will come in, probably, probably not. We're just sitting around looking at each other.

Only 1 1/2 hours to go! Maybe I'll make it...

I have had only had one phone call, and the only emails were subscription services and Merry Christmas wishes.

Many of the stafff have already cut out...and a few have their children here. It's not so bad really...

No phone calls, no emails, but our teller area is busy due to last minute gift card purchases.
