I guess an update on me

Things are looking a little better at work. I am trying hard to impress my supervisors, I value my job. I found out today I may be joining the union. I talked with a fellow employee and he mentioned a idea he has in the works, that would improve our pay and benefits. So I should know in a couple of weeks if I plan on doing that. I am bummed I didn't get the over time for the flood benefit concert. But I did get two race days. So I should have a decent amount of over time on my check after this one. I have 106 hours on this check, which is 26 hours over time. I estimated more, but I forgot about my half hour lunches they take out of our checks. I got to train the new lady today at work. I felt really good because the FTO(Field Training Officer) chose me to train her. She will be working with some other people the rest of the week, but she told me she learned a lot from me. She said I know a lot about the casino. I had a patron ask me about job opportunities and I explained to him all of his options. I try to find out everything I can about the casino, I hope someday I can move into some sort of management and make a difference. Make changes for the better.

The best thing that has happened to me lately is Asia has fully opened her eyes. She is so sweet, she cuddles up with me to sleep, and lets me hold her when ever I want. I love her so much. I don't care if Coco has anymore children, because Asia is perfect. She is my little baby, and Coco is just my baby. Garth is my retard and I love him for it. They are all laying with me now while I write this. I have such a wonderful little puppy family to come home to. Garth and Coco greet me at the door and only a few more weeks and Asia will be too! I will be scared all over again that she will get lost, or squished! I was so afraid Coco would get stepped on or stuck under something. I was super protective. I said if anyone stepped on her I would break their foot. I ment it too! I just hope the cat isn't mean to her. She is kinda mad that they made another one.

Ok, I have run the numbers if I can make this check ok, until next month, then I can make it. August is a special month and I get three pay checks. That's a lot with over time, so my goal is to work every hour possible in over time. I will be caught up and on track if all goes well. At least I hope so. Because I have to have a repair person come and look at my water heater, because it may be very broken. Well, it is broken I just don't know how bad. I guess it is a bad idea to submerge your gas water heater under water, who knew?Plus I have to look into buying a new dryer and getting the old one out of my basement. If I pay off the fridge, I may get a new new one. I go and see the stove Friday.

Ok, I done for now. Umm I am gonna cross my fingers and hope things either get better or I just die.
