Well, work is going good. The kids clothing store jb is sometimes confusing, but I'm getting the hang of it. This week was interesting there and at the babysitting job. You see, my allergies flared up, which morphed into a bad cold. I lost my voice practically completely. Ya. I think I got it for one or both of the twins. This week at the babysitting job, I only had 3 of the four kids (oldest was at camp, will be back next week). I expected to have lots of tantrums from the 5 year old, but he's been really good this week, minimal tantrums, which were all qwelled quickly. Earl is still being his crazy self. He was not fun to deal with a few nights ago when it was storming and I wasn't feeling well. Needless to say, he goes in his cage at night if there's the possibilty of storms in the area and everyones asleep/you're the only one home.
This is a short update, but I'll edit later and add to it. The munchkins are getting into stuff, plus one is looking especially sleepy. One last thing though. Sometime in the next cuple weeks, my sister H and her family are coming up while they're on block leave. So I'll get to meet her newborn son. My neice from my other sister turned 3 months yesterday, and H's baby boy turned 2 weeks old :)
I'll have more later.

Look ma, one of each! :)
H finally had Liam at 12:16 AM June 3. She was induced at 1pm on June 1st, so you can imagine how much "fun" she was having for 36ish hours. He's adorable, already holding up to his middle name (as much as he can in his newborn state lol).
The night I found out or the night after I found out about my job at the childrens retail store, my mom referred me to her coworker that needed a babysitter. So, now I have two jobs. I babysit M-Th, that is when I'm not working at the store. There's four kids. The two youngest are 13 month old twins (boy and girl), a 4/5 year old boy, and a 9 year old girl. The twins are fun, they keep me busy. The 5 year old likes to test, which his mom said he would. He's coming around slowly. We'll see how it goes. The 9 year old is my little helper. You see, the twins, they both like to NOT stay still when getting their diapers changed, which makes things especially difficult. She helps entertain them while I change them if they aren't happy with the toy that's in teir hands.
I started at the store today. It didn't go that bad. The first 3 hours I wa in the stock room doing paper work and reading the employee handbook. The last hour, I was out on the floor, training at cashwrap. We had one incident during training. These three guys came into the store. I immediately thought something was off. Both me and the manager kept talking to them frequently. Turns out they were pulling an LP (Loss Prevention), aka, they were shoplifting. Since I didn't know the code, she had to go in the back and call security without them getting suspicious. One of the three had left before the guard could get there. I don't know if they caught them or not. Hopefully they did.
Well, I should probably get off here soon. I have to be out the door by 7:30 at the latest to be at my babysitting job by 8:30. You gotta love early morning traffic :) I'm sooo stopping at BP for coffe on my way there.
Night all :)
