Sticky situation

I guess I can tell you guys about getting stuck in a dress at Kohls the other day, yup that was me on ther front page of the paper. See I had to go to a PBA ball Friday night, and well you all know I had two funerals last week and it never occured to me that a nice dress was needed, not until the Pastor (who was also attending the b all) mentioned that after the funeral service she was going to get her hair done. Suddenly my brain had thoughts of me going to a fancy event and nothing, not even a black dress to wear. So after the service I went to Kohls, since its the only store within close range. I grab three black dresses and off to the dressing room I go. First dress I dont like, next dress I try on I like but its too tight, way way too tight. I try to pull it up over my head, its stuck on my arms, and no matter how I wrangled and moved it got stuck even further. This is not good, I know its not good and now I am panicking. Ever panick with a dress stuck around your head? So I open the door of the dressing room to which you can see out into entire store, theres me a dress stuck over my head arms in the air and me in my underwear asking people in the area to please find a store employee and send them to me. Three showed up, yup it too three store employees to slowly pry my arms out of this dress. All the while my underwear in plain view. I am only imagining store security was up their eyebrows in laughter. They finally released me from the dress and said do you want to buy it?? Can you just imagine my look? As they were leaving me to return to the dressing room I heard one of them say, geez I never had that happen before, to which I commented, umm its not like my daily routine. The sad thing I still had to try on the last dress. Which I did and it fit and I ran out of there faster than you could imagine. When I got home to relive the story with my 18 year old, she gasped and said oh no I know at least three people that work there I hope they didn’t see you. Gee thanksanyways, have a great day

Passing Class

or should I say gas,, ha ha
for the past two weeks from 8;30 am to 4 pm I attended a Real Estate Class, after which I would head off to work, then go home and study or pass out whichever seemed the most important
Today which is Friday, I finished my class and I passed. Geez lots of passing,
my head is spinning as it was a tough two weeks and your brain can only absorb so much before it starts leaking out of the sides.
when I finished my test, the instructor who grades them immediately so he can either pass and give your certificate or he fails you. Well at first he failed me, but gave me the test to read and the answers so I could take again. So I reread it, studied for about five minutes and re took just the portion he told me I failed. (the exam is broken down in different parts) When he graded it the second time, he said I just barely passed that portion. He then was nice and said take the questions that you got wrong to study for the state exam. So I sit there looking over what was wrong, and opened my book we used only to see that one of the questions marked wrong was actually right, so I asked if he would look at what I was looking at. I was right, but then he noticed four other questions he marked wrong were also right.. what the ....?
so on one portion of the test I got a 84 the other a 75.. 70 was passing for all
Now I have to take the state exam in the next few weeks. I will continue studying until I am sure I will get a passing grade, then I will make an appointment to take it.
So here i sit at work, yes I am at work. You would think my husband will take me out for dinner to celebrate but he is going hunting. Anyone want to go out to eat?
I bet I will be sleepping at a very early time this evening.

God is so good,
