Sleepover

Thanks to the "toy party" company, it is hard for me to say slumber party. Anyway last night I had a sleepover with some of my really good friends. Carrie had all the girls in her family and a few friends like Nicole Amy and I stay over for the night. We had so much fun. We told scary stories and visited until three a.m. We caught up on what everyone was doing and shared old memories we all had with each other. I am so grateful for their friendship and love. It is so nice they would share their sisterhood with me. Thank you Burts!

Salon stories

In the salon where I work, we had a very funny thing happen. It was a very busy day for a wednesday, and I had just finished up doing a color and shampoo set for a very regular client. Lets call her Mary. (We know Mary very well she comes in two times a week to have her hair done.) Anyway, she paied her bill and asked to use the telephone, so I handed her the cordless phone. Then I went back to start on my next client. While I was cutting his hair, Mary asked my boss Teresa if she could use the phone, so Teresa handed her the cordless phone to use. Teresa then took back another client to cut his hair. We finished the rush and sat down for a minute when Teresa got a phone call on her cell phone from her nephew. He told her that our phone was off the hook, and had been getting a buys signal for about fourty five minutes. That should not happen because we have two lines and none of us had been using the phone. We then checked the chargers to the phones and they said in use. We searched everywhere for the phones; in the perm carts, all the stylist sations, the lobby, the front desk, and back room. We could not find either of the two cordless phones anywhere. Lucily we had an old phone in the back, so Teresa plugged it in. We thought maybe Mary took one of the phones with her and the other one would eventually show up. I called the home of the cilent and left a message, but due to the age of Mary and her husband we didn't know if they would get the message off the machine.
The next morning Teresa and I got to the salon and neither of the phones had shown up. Teresa and I went over what happened the previous evening and realized that each of us had handed Mary a phone, and she may have taken both of them with her. Teresa said "I'm not calling them they might be mean to me if she didn'thave them." So I called their home phone again, and talked to her husband. He said she had brought two phones home with her the night before and he had no clue where she had got them from. He said he would bring them right down. When he brought them back he told us they had phones just like ours and maybe Mary thought they were hers. Then he told us she had alzhimers and she is not a shoplifter. I told him we know Mary very well and know she did not do this on purpose and that everything was okay now we had the phones back.
So the case of the missing phones were solved.

Summer Birthdays

Tonight I went to Sigrids birthday party with Jeff and Eric. They tought me how to play bocce ball. It was hard for me to get you only throw one ball at a time. I kept tossing one right after another. The first round I scored only one point. The second one I scored about three. Not bad for my first try at the game.

First time!

Okay here goes nothing. I have finally set up a blog. Its only taken me a good hour.
