Mornin folks!

Well....I have only been up for an hour and 44 minutes, and it is already a bad day.

Chris talked to her bosses yesterday about our having to move and they asked around up north for a spot for her to transfer to at one of the stores up there....there aren't any. She has the option to go to the downtown San Francisco store and work 8 hours a week processing trucks two mornings a week. That would mean that we would lose her income, and all the hard work she has done over the last four years down the drain. So...we can try to stay here and she can stay where she is, but we weren't expecting to move anytime soon and we have no money in the bank to move with thanks to me getting laid off and having a hard time finding a new job. I am just sitting here crying and feeling bitter and helpless. I guess I need to just get over it.

I also have to drive back to the bay area today for another interview that I have tomorrow...which I am not really looking forward to...I don't want to be away from Chris right now she is SO upset, and I am kinda tired of being in the car. This situation with her job has just totally ruined the excitement of moving back up there for me I think.

Sorry to be so whiny this morning, I guess my day just got started on the wrong foot.

I hope everyone else has a better day than mine has been so far!!!

hi shells
life is hard right now for so many of us that words of encouragement are hard to come by. all i can say is stay strong, keep the faith and keep on going on. when it's this bad the way to go is up it's just a matter of time.
take care & God bless

Morning Janine & Everyone,
Well first the weigh in. I am the same, gee am I shocked, NO. Seems like my body has just settled here since surgery. Thats ok I am not going to stress over it. Just keep exercising and eating right.
Now about the job thing......first interview I was offered the job just have to pass the background check. I will know Friday. It isnt what I want to do, but it is a job. So for now do that and keep looking. The second interview went good, but they are just building up a pool so they have access to nurses when someone leaves their County job. The hiring process is long and extreme~a lie detector test?! If they liked me enough and someone leaves then I start on with that. The County job is the ultimate goal. I get home and get 2 more calls about jobs, so I go in today and tomorrow for interviews. Figure find out who can give me the best deal!! So that about sums up the whole work thing. So today one interview and lots of errands!
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!! Be good to yourselves and those around you!!!

I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty,
believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.

Good morning! Less than a week and I go back to school. I am going crazy trying to prep and get ahead. I am down 3 lbs this week.  That is 37 lbs since surgery and 67 total! I am feeling great. I can do an hour of cardio at a time. Yesterday I did a whole hour of a cardio kick boxing class. It was fun!

Well Ladies and Gentlemen I am down 1.5 pounds this week and 11 days until surgery.  I had an amazing salad for dinner last night and even though I am sleepy tired this morning I have a feeling of "happy" going on.

Got some good news.  Janine ..... you're not the only local artist in residence!  Mr. Jayden's safety drawing for dad's company's 2009 calendar won!  Not only did he get one of the coveted 12 slots for the calendar -- his drawing will be ON THE COVER!!!!  He did such an awsome job on it.  He wins a 42" flat screen HD tv (which will probably go in the living room  because NO 5 year old needs a tv that big in his room) and a Wii system for his room.  His safety saying.... "My dad works safe so he can come home and play with me."  Good advice from a 5 year old.

Dad's doing much better.  They adjusted his medication and his heart rate is back up to normal, blood pressure back to normal and everyone's smiling!  Good News.

I had my performance review yesterday and ..... TaaaaDaaaa!  It's a wall-framer!  It was actually the best review I have ever received.  Wow. 

Now, off to keep up the standards and get to work.

That is awesome Maureen. You and DH must be so proud of Mr. Jayden. So, how can I get that calendar?? And you're right, no 5 year old needs a 42" tv in his bedroom...lol Glad they got dad all squared away with the meds too. Congrats on the performance review!! Have a great day... =)

Oh, I'm sure I'll have a few of them available!  I'll even post a copy of his picture when I get one (I should have made a copy before he turned it in.  darn).  Things have been going so great, Stress is down, I'm feeling better (starving, but feeling better) taking vitamins, and just excited to be alive!
