I swear someone is looking over my shoulder. Boy how my life has changed since I first came here. Ok tell me this job wasn't a blessing in disguise as that saying goes. I know I have rambled about this a lot but I have to again. What, about a month ago I say how the boss had the tax guys in his store and the cops ready to lock the doors. Well that was just the state. Today it was a call from the IRS. Ha ha they were in his other store. Good grief! He has 45 days to pay what he owes, and that was with pleading, or they do the tax levy thing. Wow. As far as I know the store I am leaving he is just closing. He won't replace me. Stupid in my opinion. He has 2 more years on his contract. Well all I keep thinking is how lucky I was for this job. It fell on my lap and what timing.

Hey Bella. How strange. I just was thinking of you. I just got here to the store and looked at the calendar. What is St.Andrew's Day? It's a Canandian holiday listed.

Hmm I'm not sure what St. Andrews day is, let me look it up:
St. Andrew's Day is the feast day of Saint Andrew. It is celebrated on 30 November.
Saint Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland, and St. Andrew's Day (Scottish Gaelic: Latha Naomh Anndra) is Scotland's official national day. In 2006, the Scottish Parliament designated St. Andrew's Day as an official bank holiday.
Although most commonly associated with Scotland, Saint Andrew is also the patron saint of Greece, Romania, Russia and the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.[1]
In Germany, the feast day is celebrated as Andreasnacht ("St. Andrew's Night"), in Austria with the custom of Andreasgebet ("St. Andrew's Prayer"), and in Poland as Andrzejki ("Andrews").
Sounds like another day to over eat. As much as I would love to be eating good food, I am trying to be on my best behavior, cause I know come December I am going to eat like a pig. :D

Interesting. THanks for that.
I am eating can cheese with crackers right now like its my job. Normally I just snack all day. Well being at the new job all morning I don't do that. Then I have been going to the gym before I get here. I get here pretty darn hungry let me tell you. I have already had half bag of chips. Now spray cheese on some Ritz. Yummy for my tummy.
