Why wouldn't they count, Andy?

Okay, so we sit a week before Thanksgiving. I'm sort of confused but I think at this time of the year it is is normal. I work full time in retail. That means I am supposed to get no less than 32 hours a week. In fact the latest thing to come down is all full timers will have 36 hours a week. Well they keep scheduling me 30 hours and I have to find ways to add the two hours in so I stay full time or I lose my health benefits. Well next week is Black Friday. i work in one of those wonderful companies that now think it is a great idea to make it easier on the consumer so we are opening now at midnight. That means for a large number of us, our Thanksgiving has to end by five pm, because we need some sort of sleep before we go in for ten pm and begin working our ten to fourteen hour work day. I know for that week I am already scheduled 46 hours. Joy. I guess it could be worse. Some are opening now at 9pm on Thanksgiving eve, and others are presently talking about staying open all day. Yes, one of the only three days a year that we close is going goodbye so people can shop it. I know giving up my family, my day off, and sleep is nothing against the almighty dollar but whatever happened to being thankful for a good year, and having time to spend with your family. Oh, that's right, family died in the face of the almighty dollar. Silly me. This is supposed to kick off the holiday season. i don't know about anyone else who works in retail, but what was once my favorite season is now just one more time of the year to get through. The only things I truly look forward to are spending Christmas in bed sleeping, opening my presents from my friends and family (which means my father and my possibly my brother & sister-in-law if they remember in time), and eating a cold buffet meal cause it is one holiday I refuse to cook for. The other is hiding out from an event in December that has been horrible since I was fourteen years old. Sorry to depress anyone reading this. i was trying hard to get into the holiday mood. Hell I just watched A Miser Brother's Christmas and was preparing to write out my Christmas cards, but I can't seem to find the spirit to do it. I wish you better luck. Happy Holidays.

Why would I have a date? I can't remember the last time I had a date. Is that a problem?

Wouldn't it be nice to have someone to kiss on New Years?

Who has a date for New Year's Eve?

The story gets wilder and James keeps getting darker. Poor Beth. I am not sure what happens in the slave sheds but doubt it is going to be an improvement.

I promise not once does Seeon pass out. You will find that Seeon has a lot to deal with and I have a few twists and turns in this tale yet.

For those still interested. Chapter 29 is up. Chapter 30, Christmas should be up no later than Monday, I hope, and the final Chapter up by next Saturday. Thank you all for reading and commenting.

Well who really cares about who is taking the blame?

Thank you Nephy. Now I feel better.

Why do I feel like this is all my fault?

Well the Thanksgiving cards are out. I bought my Christmas cards. For me that is a major step this year. I have my father's birthday card and gifts. Still trying to figure out what to do about Christmas for him. I forgot my sister-in-laws birthday. I wonder if that makes me a bad person? Anyway I ordered off Amazon, and sent her card out. All I can say is Oops, I'm human. I posted Seeon yesterday, partially because I was having a bad day and partially cause I know the site will be down on Saturday most of the day. I'm amazed that a story of mine can have over four hundred views between the first two chapters and just six reviews. I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. Mainly because if I read someone's work and can't find something nice to say, I just don't comment. Makes me wonder what people really think of my writing. If my mood had been better yesterday AH would be done. Instead 30 sits half complete. i did finish Chapter 8 on Jonas. After I go over it tonight I will send that over to Andy. I still have two chapters of a Day in the Life of Seer I need to type up for FSO yet. I feel like am way behind. Then there nanowrimo. Well, the way this month is going I got about 10,000 words and haven't had two minutes to get back to it. The month is only going to get worse considering I work retail and we are rapidly getting towards Black Friday. Today is Veteran's Day. I wish to thank all those who have served to make our country safe. Whether you love it or hate, those people put their lives on the line to defend us. For that, I offer my heart felt thank you. Anyway, have a good day all.

Would you define trouble?

Well, aren't I usually in trouble to begin with?

Thanks guys and gals. It was just a case of the comment coming at the wrong time. Turned what was a good moment in a bad day, to a horrible one all the way around. Just needed to vent before it poisoned my day further.

Would answering that get me into more trouble?

Thank You Catristory. I am always happy to know someone is reading and enjoying my work.

I'm glad you are enjoying it. Was worried no one liked it due to the lack of comments. Other than my betas and editor. Hang on, Seeon has a lot more coming in his future chapters.

Aww. We are early yet in the story. Wait till the fun begins.
