Back for a few days....

Well, I survived my first week in Dodge City. I put in at least 10 to 12 hours every day, and will again for 5 days starting Friday. The manager of the other store is helping me a lot, and she and I are a lot alike in our thinking about how to get things done in a store, so it works well. The store isn't in too bad of shape. The manager in training that is slated to take over the store is pretty cool too, he has helped out, too. I get along with all the employees excet one, and I'm not worried about her. The others are all guys, and I always get along better with guys anyway... LOL
Rhonda and I laid out in the sun yesterday, and I overdid it for my first time out. Oh well, I'll learn someday... LOL.
I saw Andy last night for the first time in 6 days. He missed me more than he thought he was going to, I think. He called me at least once or twice everyday.
When I got off work, I went back to the motel. The television was on a swivel topped tv stand, and I would turn it so I could watch it from the bubble bath... LOL
He usually called when I was in the tub, and then again later, right before I went to sleep.

Good to hear things went well in Dodge. Workings 10 to 12 hours a day - well what else would you be doing. Many of my business trips I was glad to work all day as it kept me out of trouble and from being lonely.

Actually, with all the people in and out of the store, the fast pace, and the things going wrong that I had to make decisions on... I was glad to get to my room every evening, eat, take a hot bubble bath, and veg out in front of the television until I went to sleep! I also got lots of phone calls from friends in the evenings... kept me from being lonely...
