|Time| 1:43 PM
|Sound| Final Fantasy Tactics (Sean's playing it in the other room)
|Habit| neglecting my site
|Feel| little bit of pain
|Think| I need to redo my site

It's been forever since I've done anything with my site. I really need to make a new layout for it, but I still don't know what kind I want. I'm thinking I'll stick with tables, but I can't figure out what sort of image or color scheme I'd like to go with. I've been meaning to do something since probably November, but never took the time out to do it. I've got some time this week and next since I'm finally using the two days of holiday pay for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'm sure every other store manager actually used those days the week of the holidays, but it just really didn't work out with me schedule-wise. I think I only had until Feb 22 to use them. I had made out my schedule for the next two weeks when I realized that I needed to use my days before I just lost them. Now I get to have 3 days off this week and next. Then I have to drive to Orlando on Feb 20 to be at the meeting on the 21st, and then I have inventory the night of the 22nd. I may end up going and working the following morning on the 23rd because I'm not going to make anyone else work inventory and then be back up there in a few hours. It may work out that I don't have to do that, but we'll see. And luckily I'll be carpooling with 3 other girls because I really didn't want to have to drive about 5 hours to Orlando by myself. I hate driving anywhere new by myself, and the possiblility of getting lost somewhere in 5 hours and not realizing it right away worries me quite a bit.

I believe it was January 15 when it happened. I had gone a little over 22 years without ever breaking any bones, but then it happened. We had just bought a new upright stainless steel freezer and had moved the chest freezer to one of the passage-ways into the kitchen. I had just gotten off the phone from ordering Pizza Hut and was going to be leaving the house, when I went to go turn the heat up in the house. I completely misjudged how close I was to the chest freezer and kicked it really hard with my right foot. It was really sharp pain, and I had to go sit on the sofa and put my foot up on the footrest. I almost got away with not crying, but I had to just a little. It ended up being the toe next to my little toe on my right foot. Then Sean came home a few minutes later, and he drove me to go get the pizza. I had to hobble the rest of that evening because I couldn't put that much weight on my foot, and even hobbling hurt. I didn't think that I had broken my toe. It was swollen, but I could still move and bend it without crazy pain. I couldn't walk normally the next day at work, but it didn't hurt nearly as bad. When I got home that evening and took my shoes and socks off, I noticed that my toe was still swollen and underneath it was purple. That was when I realized I had broken it. I was kind of sitting on my foot a few days later and it started hurting. It took me a minute to realize that it was because my toe was broken. I really don't do anything to make it hurt now, but I did at first. It may not heal quite right, but it's one of my little toes.

It's about 3:30 now. It did not take me that long to type this. We had our stainless steel fridge delivered just a little while ago. We had to peal all the tape and stickers off, clean the shelves, and then adjust the shevles to the levels we are going to need. It looks really good in the kitchen. The fridge is on the top part, and the freezer is on the bottom. The handle for the freezer makes you think that it will be a drawer that pulls out, but it's really a door that opens. It looks great with the new stainless steel paper towel holder, touchless trash can, and toaster; not to mention the stove, range hood, freezer, microwave, and blender. I'll have to take some pictures since our kitchen is completely new now. The only thing left to change out is the dishwasher; it's still white. And we still have to get new flooring in there, but that is a little ways off yet.
