today was a good day

Had a huge blow out party for my side business this weekend at Jackie's house. It was a huge success. Made some money, had some drinks and had some good bonding time. We had 50 girls there and it was crazy. Afterwards Jackie, Lincoln and I sat around and sang kareoke for like an hour...really poorly. Jackie and I were singing in our opera voices but everytime a low part would come up we both went in to Barry White mode. It was fun. I would have drank more but I had to drive my happy ass home so I could get up this morning for Weight Watchers workshop. I carpooled with the lady I work with on Tuesday nights, her name is Judy. She is so funny. I think I've written about her before that last time we had a workshop. She's so generic. I don't mean that to be mean. She's just very basic. the type that only uses salt because pepper it too fancy. Anyway she gave me a bunch of helpful tips about Chloe on house breaking and so on. The reason I say my day was good is because...well let me take one step back. Thursday night meeting has blown up and we've had a very nice woman helping me and Barbie out the last month but she can't anymore and Barbie didn't tell our boss in enough time so our boss, her name is Cheryl, had to help out. I could tell she was cranky about being there. She doesn't live anywhere near that meeting and she was getting a cold so it wasn't great. I was nervous cause this woman hired me, sight unseen, no training and now she was about to see what I could do, or not do. I didn't crack. I handled 50 members payments etc in 15 minutes and then sent them to Cheryl to get weighed in. My line never backed up and I only made a small mistake the whole night. So today our workshop was all about filling buckets. The bucket is our confidence or attitude and about how others fill or empty our buckets. Basically is was supposed to teach us to be nice to others. Fine. I already know how to be nice. I am the poster child for nice, God damn it. So during the 3 hour thing Cheryl mentions how wonderful it was to work with me on Thursday night. That I was so effecient that it made her feel useless. I was so flattered that she singled me out of the big group and gave me such a great compliment. She really filled my bucket today! She is not the type to hand out compliments. She's a no-nonsense kinda lady. Doesn't say things just cause she's in charge. I don't always feel great after some meetings because it's still kinda new to me and I don't always have all the answers or even the right answers but she totally confirmed my worth to the company.
