So to catch up, we had Thanskgiving, of course. We invited some friends from church over. Oh, yeah, one thing that was interesting was that before Thanksgiving I had written a blog post for the local newspaper about how I was thankful for my Walmart job. LINK I was just so tired of all the anti-Walmart sentiments I'd been hearing and thought it would be appropriate to be thankful instead of gripey through Thanksgiving. A week or so later, I got a phone call from one of our assistant managers, who said that home office wanted to talk to me. At first I thought I must be in huge trouble, but she said it was because of the blog post. When they finally got back with me, it was the media relations department who wanted me to be a Walmart ambassador. I guess she just wanted to know my thoughts about Walmart--the kinds of changes they've made, whether they pay fairly, etc. She said she might be checking back occasionally to hear what Walmart associates think. It was definitely interesting!
So now the biggest thing going on is our van. It keeps dying on us. We just put a fuel pump in it and now it won't start again. Erick is going to look at it when he gets home. He's hoping it's just a relay. We are supposed to be going on a family vacation at the first of the year, so we really need to get this figured out soon. Last night we drove out to Little Nashville to see the lights and it worked fine.
Today the kids have three friends over, and so things are a little noisy downstairs. I've submitted all of my assignment for the semester, and so now I'm catching up on other stuff. I'm cleaning my room right now. Actually, I'm taking a teensy weensy break from cleaning my room to post on my blog.
Oh, and did I ever post about my new haircut? I don't think I did. I changed my profile picture on Facebook, but I didn't put it here. I got it cut really short to get all that blonde that I put in it last year out. I really like it. I still have some blonde in the front, but it looks fine.
