I am currently working on editing my resume and cover letter but the darn format in Word just doesn't want to work with me! I originally created both of these online at livecareer.com but I only used the free trial so now If I want to go back and edit both of those without having issues, I have to pay either $34.95 for one month or $95.40 for a whole year. I don't want to pay for either! Such a rip off.
I had a pretty good night at work last night. We were fairly slow all evening but then at 10:00pm the Bison game and Force game both finished and Taylor and I got slammed! We had probably 10 people in there until 12:15 so we didn't get any closing work done ahead of time. I finally made it home around 1:30am. Normally I'm home by 12:30. That part was frustrating but it was worth it for the extra money we made. I think we left with $235. Not too shabby.
When we cut down to closers at work, one person stays on the floor and one person is behind the bar. Taylor doesn't like being on the floor so usually that's where I end up. I don't mind it. Well anyway, last night I had this table leave my tip with a post card that I just assumed was filled out so I put it on the bar for Taylor to put in the beer mail basket. My manager ended up looking at it and then he called me over to show it to me. The postcard was addressed to my name. It said, "Dear Sarah, thank you for the great service! Merry Christmas!" And then under the address, they wrote their names. I don't know who they were but that totally made my night. In an industry where we hear a lot about what we're doing wrong and not much about what we do right, things like that can really make our day. Never underestimate the power of a little hand written note to your server when they do a good job!
Tomorrow around this time I'll be done with work for a few days. I'm excited about that. The apartment is pretty messy right now so tomorrow evening I'm going to do some serious cleaning and then I get to spend Monday Christmas shopping, wrapping gifts and watching Christmas movies. I'm debating if I want to try and convince Jesse to come shopping with me. I'd like to have someone to go with but he would probably go nuts with all the people. Plus, he hates shopping. He doesn't even come to the grocery store with me. It'll probably be best for me to go alone anyway to just get the stuff I need and get out. Then on Tuesday you and Grams will be coming to Fargo to celebrate Christmas with Jordan, Sam, Jesse and I. That should be fun!! =)
I really wish I had more to say today but my life is pretty monotonous right now. Hope you're going to be writing about your new little kitty that you found by the dumpster. I want to know more!
Love you!

Dear Rah Rah,
As you know, I am DD for a group headed to a Christmas party tonight, hence the reason that I am writing early. I know that you work late so am assuming that you will be doing the same thing. Git er DONE! I woke up this morning to no water! Things froze up in the well house so that was the start to my day. My landlord and his step son were over almost immediately and got it taken care of relatively fast so that was good.
BINGO was AWESOME last night. There were so many kiddos, parents, and grandparents that our Drum Hall was nearly full and we had to add more tables. There were tons of toys for people to win, and even 3 Kindle Fire's. I was actually the BINGO caller which was loads of fun! Everyone that was helping was in such a happy place and some kiddos are getting some really cool toys this Christmas. Additionally, our Student Senate raised over $1000.00 which will help them on a trip they will take over Spring Break. It was soooooooo needed and helped to really get me in the Christmas Spirit.
Sooooooooooo . . . there are kitties at the Holt dumpsters which actually causes me a lot of stress and anxiety this time of the year. As you know, Lucy was a trash kitten and you know how much I love her. Lucy is like a dog. She comes running when I come home, makes a ton of noise, and even lets me scratch her belly. My friend Karin dropped her off at the Holt Humane Society . . . aka Sheila's!
When Kim came to pick me up, she told me about a sweet little kitty sitting in the dumpster. I think she is a bleeding heart too! GRRRRRRRR! I went and this sweet little girl (I think) was sitting all wet, crying, and shaking. UGHHHHHHH! Because I called you, you already know where this went and what happened. Christmas Kitty Part II is now at my house. AND MAMA is MAD!!! She has growled around over and over and over and over. She is really MAD at me. She even smacked at me a few times!!! UFF DA! It could get ugly at the Michaels Hacienda!
By the way, she does NOT match the others in the house. She is a CHATTY Kathy and talks as soon as you come near her. Today I have been wrapping all of my gifts, with the Christmas music in the background, and having a Christmas moment to my house. BUT then cat fight. Mama is just being annoying. She is the only one, and little does she know, that most days she is on the short list to getting sent somewhere else anyway. Dang that cat has an AWFUL disposition. Harmony is her real name but nothing HARMONIOUS about that cat! Can I just get rid of her???
I cannot have 4 cats in a house my size so I am in DEEP trouble because I really want to keep this little love muffin! She is so sweet and cuddly. She is a long haired little beauty and quite sweet. She sat and watched me wrap presents all day, and no, she does NOT belong on my microwave stand. BUT SHE IS SOOOOOO CUTE!!! I am in trouble when I finally have grand babies, because this MeMaw is gonna be a total pile of MUSH!
Then Christmas Kitty II sat on top of the presents, NOPE she does NOT belong there, but isn't she sooooooooo CUTE!
I really have to start getting ready so am gonna scoot! I love you and hope you have a good night. I will try and find a good home, I will try and find a good home, I will try and find a good home . . . maybe:)
Mom
