***Super Cold Wednesday Roll Call***
Hola peeps.
It's Wednesday, right? Today has me going back to visit some apartments that I've already seen because I am oober confused and need clarification of what I have already seen. I have a feeling that I've already found the right place, but didn't know it at the time because I was trying to put my home office in my bedroom instead of the living room. I think it will work better in the living room because then I can put the home PC on the same desk and keep an eye on my daughter when she is on it. If I put the office in my room, then I will need a separate desk for the home PC and that will just take up even more room that I can't sacrifice.
Later today, I have to pick my daughter up from choir, take her friend home, get her something to eat and then we are going over to the synagogue to help cook. I told my friend that I would make every effort to get there so I am going to try to take it somewhat easy today so I don't tire myself out before then.
Tomorrow I go to the surgeon for my first post -op visit. After the visit, SOLIDS!!! WOOHOO!!
Have a great day everyone!

Good Morning Trish & PA!
Trish I really hope that you feel better soon, you've certainly had enough of all this crap!
For those of you, that are not aware, I lost my job yesterday and am now among the 6MM or so unemployed Americans, they laid off 300 people worldwide at my firm yesterday, many of us have been there for at least a decade, if not longer, so to those who know, thanks for all the kind wishes and support on my latest round of crisis. . . this sure does stink and I woke up this morning feeling very strange, as the last time I was unemployed was back in 1987 and because I was living a life that cost me my job, though I wanted them to fire me, but then again that is what I told myself to justify my behavior then, it was a short time later that I got into a 12 Step Recovery program and that has changed me in ways that have helped me weather the storms of life, but this on top of what I have recently experienced with my sweet Dillinger, has me reeling.
I woke up today and felt lost and somewhat afraid, now after talking to my friend who has been on unemployment for the last couple of months and she filled me in on what to expect and told me how the stimulus package will help. So I feel a little less afraid for the immediate future. Hopefully, I can hang on long enough to get another job. The thing is when on unemployment, you have to be careful of the job you take, how it might affect your benefits and/or long term benefit, so can't afford to take work that pays too little, plus I need a certain income to be able to just pay my month to month expenses, not expecting what I made in NYC, but enough to pay my mortgage, utilities and basics. . . oh well, off to figure what expenses I can cut, to try and see if I can get my commuter ticket money back, parking pass money back, etc. . .
Have a wonderful day folks.
Prayers, hugs and positive thoughts, things can always be worse, Laureen

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Laureen - Wishing you all the best! This has been a trying time for you and I hope that there is nothing but a positive outcome - I do believe that everything happens for a reason - so hopefully even though this door has closed another one is opening for you any second now! I know it is hard to think that way and I can rarely do it for myself when I am in those tough situations but also as they say - what doesn't kill us makes us stronger!!
*hugs* here's to hoping that everything works out quickly!!
