Well it's been an absolutely crazy week at work!! We opened our store to the public this past Thursday and on the first day we had 22,000 people shop at IKEA! Same on Friday, probably around 30,000 on Saturday and Sunday and then same again during this week. UNBELIEVABLE!! If you want to look at it this way as I find quite amusing, the population of the Comox Valley is roughly 65,000, so, over the first 3-4 days of IKEA Springvale being open we've had the entire Comox Valley shop in our store. NUTS! You think that there would have been a bit of a lull between meal times, well I thought wrong, it was a constant craziness! None stop. You could barely move, I felt like I was pushing my way through a packed night club, but instead of music there was screaming kids. haha. I just can't get over it. I've had the last couple of days off and apparently it's still the same, so back into the marathon tomorrow. Not to mention I've picked up a cold/virus thing, probably from one of those screaming kids, so let's hope I get completely better between now and tomorrow so I can run around like a chicken with it's head cut off for the rest of the week. I was looking forward to being busy, but this is way more than that, let's just hope it dies down a bit soon, for the sanity of all of the IKEA co-workers.
Here's a couple new photos for you. Dan also finally had his last sitting on is tattoo, I think he's happy it's done. Here's the photos.

Last sitting.
Dan did a bit of laundry the other day, can't turn you back on this pup for two seconds, caught red handed! He thought he'd take a little snooze on the nice warm towels and how could you tell that adorable face off?!
Too funny! And too cute!
