Mocha Monday

Mocha’s are 50 cents off at the coffee stand in the lobby of our building on Mondays. That combined with the fact that it’s only a 3 day workweek almost makes it worth coming in this Monday morning! … almost.

I’m liking my new part-time job at JCPenney. But it does take some getting used to. I’m used to having a sit-down, desk job. I stood for 6 hours yesterday (5 working, 1 shopping!). My feet were throbbing by the time I got home. Hopefully, my body will adjust. I leave my day job at 3 and work 3:30-7:30 at Penney’s. I do have Thanksgiving Day off, but I’ll be at work at 5am on Black Friday for the Christmas chaos! Sounds like fun, right!?

At any rate, yesterday, sales associates had a 35% discount (instead of the usual 20%), so I bought myself a lovely black and red suit to wear to work and to Stephen’s office Christmas dinner on the 15th. It started out as $77, I got it for $30 after the sale and my discount…. Don’t you just love a bargain?

I told Stephen, I may decide to keep this side job for just enough hours to make a little extra money to spend on me! We’ll see how it goes. [Me working evenings adds a lot of extra running around with kids for Stephen… On the flip side, he and the kids each get to use my associate’s discount too…]
