I Know My Character

I feel like I'm still in need of recovery from yesterday's Seattle adventure. Apparently I developed blisters on the balls of my feet, and my shins are killing me! I did a number on myself walking up those hills! Thank goodness I have tomorrow off, but it's Easter and we have things planned. I'll sleep well tonight and see how it goes tomorrow.

Work went by pretty quickly. I had one of my associates basically accuse me of stealing a sale from her (even though I helped the customer first), so that was awesome. I stood up for myself, but it still doesn't feel good to be accused of something like that. I hate commissioned sales. I hate the environment it creates. Even though I have no doubt in the fact that I'm an excellent "bra talent", I still feel like it's a competition I don't want to be involved in. How easy of her to forget that I'm the one who trained her to be as good as she is. I hate the whole situation. As thick skinned as I seem to be, it still makes me sad to think someone thinks I'm dishonest or untrustworthy. But I'm going to let it go, before it poisons me. I know my character.

I'm terrible about getting the kids' shopping done ahead of time. I went after I got off tonight (at 9pm) to buy the kids stuff for Easter. We aren't religious, but we still celebrate the secular side of the holiday. I filled their little baskets with candy, little trinkets and the like. I know they will enjoy them. With my new eating habits, its almost impossible for me to binge on candy. Chocolate has milk in it, gummy candy has gelatin. I'm actually thankful for the limitations. In the past I would have eaten half of the candy in their baskets!

I think I'll sign off for now. My body is telling me I need to sleep, and I'm going to listen.
