I'm here... after a beautiful weekend I think I am actually feeling relaxed. It is only 8:39...but I'm hoping to keep the feeling going to at least 9:30.
Deb..please don't go on strike. I look forward to your words of wisdom or humor each week.
So the bad news is that I am going to have a problem with Aug 22 (boat day). My sister just told me she is having Anthony's birthday that day. Could we do the 23rd or the 29th or any other dates in August. We are not good Aug 1st or 2nd or 9th or 10th. Did someone have a conflict on the 15th??? Sorry to mess this up.
OK - so where is everyone else???
Hope you all had a nice weekend. We finally went on the boat, watched two home firework displays, went to several picnics and made s'mores twice. Seems to be the desert of choice lately.
OK. The 23rd or 15th works for us. The 29th means that I am already back at school and that could get trickier with what I need to do at home(I did not teach these subjects in Sept last year).
I will be back next week with a new post...apparently my public needs me. Have a great Monday!!
So far the 23rd and the 15th work as well as the 29th which was our rain date. Sorry, for not posting...I was on vacation last week and really relaxed.
Alas, my sweet friends, it was I who had a problem in August but now that I've RESIGNED from the hospital lab I am now free all weekends. Pick another time and we're there! My boss came back today from vacation and i told her. She said I had plenty of time to change my mind and to stay. I guess the first step is denial. I'm not sad. In fact, I've lost a ton of weight (when you don't drink 3 bottles of wine a week the pounds fly off, by the way) and clothes you haven't seen in years go back on. The relief is immense. Anyone know of a full time, no weekend no holiday job? I think I could use one. I told Mark I was going to stay home and write romance novels. That even cracked me up.
So, I think the 15th is good for boating day. What say you all? Looking forward to seeing you then, if not before. Are we due? Even for an out to dinner just to catch up?
Wish me luck tomorrow! I have an interview with the coding supervisor at the hospital for the new lab coding job. A few years ago I took that crazy class at Danbury Hospital and got my coding certificate and now it looks like (with any luck) I'll be able to actually use it. I haven't used any of that knowledge in 2 years. I'm soooo nervous and it was a totally spur of the moment thing that fell into my lap as I thought they wanted experience but are willing to take anyone (even me). Let's hope!!!
We're set for the 15th. Rain date is the 23rd. RSVP yes to your wedding Nance. Have a great time.
What a weird interview, not really an interview at all. Just a bunch of people talking all at once about what I can do. Believe it or not, my old boss stopped by today as she was visiting and went down and gave me a glowing review. I think I've got the job, but will find out for sure on Monday. Haven't talked money or anything yet. I just want to be able to work from 7:30 am - 4:00 pm and have that be ok. It would be a perfect scenario after that. I really don't care what the money is.
I told them I couldn't start until Aug 17th whcih gives me 1 1/2 weeks of vacation after we eget back from Disney. Right now they have a lady coming in once a week (1.5 hr drive for her each way) to do what I'll be doing everyday. I m also going to keep my lab access so i can still help out in the office but no more weekends, evenings or holidays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The lab coding would be my entire ball of wax. I have lots to learn as some stuff I've never done before. The manager is flaming gay but extremely nice and doesn't want ot have to worry about lab as he says frankly he doesn't know much about it either. If this comnes through, I'll be so very happy. Thanks again for your support.
Dan... everything happens for a reason and it sounds like this was meant to be. I've got all my fingers and toes crossed for you. You deserve a little break from the worry and insanity. Would this job give you benefits???
Packing for Mexico today. We leave Tuesday morning so this may be adios for a while for me.
Deb... I got my own copy Wednesday Sisters so I will be happily reading it with a pina colada in hand this week.
Nancy - I'll bring drinks and a dessert on the 15th. The girls are very excited.. can't wait.

We are due for something, a tribute to Farrah or Michael? The 15th it is!
OK... August 15th for boat day.
Dan - enjoy never working weekends or holidays again! Congrats for making a tough decision. It sounds like the right one.
I have put 8/15 on my calendar but I thought there was something else going on but it is good for now.

Go kick butt Dan!!! Just think Sojourner Truth...ain't I a woman!
Nance, we are excited for the 15th, we get home the night before so assign me something easy to bring.
Good Luck Dan! You will be the best coding supervisor ever. Check in later and let us know how it went.
Deb: What do you want to bring that is easy?
Dan: How did it go?
All: Do we have a raindate for 8/15? As I just got invited to a wedding on 8/29 which is our last known raindate and I need to rsvp by 7/31.
We're set for the 15th. Rain date is the 23rd. RSVP yes to your wedding Nance. Have a great time.

sorry about the typos's, my second glass of wine (and I haven't had any wine in three weeks). I tell you, it was an epiphany leaving the insanity.

I'll check in late next week. Enjoy the week.
Hasta Luego Muchachas!
