Sleepy tonight!

So, I know I had to get SOME of you with my April Fool's joke, right?! I know for sure, one person fessed up to falling for it. A few others said they were at least skeptical... So, what pranks did I play that day? Well, I was kind enough to send my mother a bouquet of flowers with a nice balloon attached that said, “Happy 60th Birthday” on it. See, she isn't 60 and it wasn't her birthday. People at her work told her she looked good for her age though!! She did take it well and she did think it was pretty funny. Hubby played a few good pranks at his job. There were to many of them and too detailed for me to explain here.

So, last week, I really did take my car into the dealership. While we were there, we just happened to look around (always a dangerous thing). To make a long story short, we now have a Jeep Cherokee, and the Sebring is gone. We got a 2000 Jeep Cherokee sport, that is black, 4 door, 4 wheel drive and very slick looking. We both love it and are very happy about it. We have been talking about trading in Hubby's car for a while, but we wanted to get more payments on it so we would not be upside-down on a loan. We came in just about even. It worked out beautifully!

Other than that, things are the same. I am currently on a 9 day stretch of work. Last week was tough, I had to work a double one day. I worked open to close, a 11 hour day. But due to our low staff issues, we didn't have anyone to close. I have now hired 4 new folks and I have a call in to offer a 5th tomorrow. I hope they all work out. I am not sure about one of them. We shall see.

Well, I closed the store tonight and I open tomorrow. So, I am off to get some sleep. Oh, and that part about the roof leaking on Friday really did happen.
