Topic: Thursday Roll Call
Morning! I am at work ready for the day to be over & my weekend to start. Had a good evening, family dinner then off to my mom's for the kid swap, my sister left her little one with my mom & I gave my girlies to my sister so that they could go to Hershey Park today. got a chance to run around the yard with my niece and a couple of nephews chasing lightning bugs. Tonight will be some errands & getting ready for the weekend.
So I had a wierd mommy moment yesterday. I was talking to my sister on the phone & I started giving her weird instructions on what the girlies like/dislike etc. It was so weird, like I was letting my little ones go away for the first time & needed to give all the little details so they would be okay. Now I would understand that if they were young but my girlies are 12 & 14, way old enough to be fine while gone. I just found it funny.
Hope you all have a great day!!!
Topic: RE: 4th Plans, Anyone??
Sounds like you and Hunter are going to have a blast at the parade. We don't have any special plans. Since our anniversary is the 9th (3 years this year) we usually celebrate over the 4th and go up to Williamsburg, VA since we get time off from work anyway. This year we're not doing anything because of everything going on with the house. I actually looking for a place for Sarah and I to run away to so we can get away from this mess here at the house.. LOL Over Memorial Day weekend I told JoAnn Sarah and I were going to come and crash her cookout. I wonder if we could threaten to crash her 4th of July weekend. LOL
I know what you mean about having a 'mocking bird'. LOL The other night Tom (DH) was picking at me. He said something and I told him to 'Hush'. Well little Missy turned around and said 'Hush Daddy'. It was funny at the time but feel the same way you do abou****ching what we say and how we react to things now.

Hey Court, I saw you over on the VA board. I used to be really active over there before I got pregnant with Sarah. Back when Leilani, Wendy and Carol were all still around. DH and I used to go to all of the get togethers and had a blast with everyone which was before we even got married. We went to the first Richmond get together they had which was in June of 2005. We had sooo much fun. I really miss it a lot. There are so many new faces over there now. I'm not sure if anyone would even remember me. I think Tink would. Maybe I'll stop by the board to say HI. I do lurk over there every once in a while. I hope you guys have a wonderful weekend.

I really feel like it is meant to be also. I just have that calm reassuring feeling about it. Like I said in my reply to Michelle, if it's God's will then it will happen. I just have to keeping praying about it and accept whatever His plan is for me.
Topic: RE: Oh Yoohooo Teresa???
Thank you Michelle! I'm really excited. In this business it's all in who you know so knowing the right people and having a good reputation for the work I do is really paying off right now. I'm ready for a new adventure and I also know that if it's God's will then it will happen.
Topic: RE: Interview Tomorrow (Wednesday 7/2/08)!!!!
The remodeling is going pretty good. The new tile for the bathroom floor is down but I got a lovely surprise (NOT) when I got home tonight of no toilet. This would have been nice to know before I got home so I could have gone straight over to my MIL with Sarah. It takes at least 45 minutes to get home from daycare so I usually head straight to the bathroom as soon as I get home. Well, not tonight. Oh well, I made it over to my MIL house in time.. LOL Thank God she only lives 2 minutes from my house. My BIL should be coming back over any time now to put the toilet back. He had to wait for the tile to set and dry. Tomorrow he is going to grout the floor and then tear out the tile from the shower floor and re-do that. This is one of the things that sucks about having such a small house; we only have one bathroom and only have a standup shower (no bathtub). I would give anything to have a bathtub again. When I tell people that I haven't taken a bath in 4 years they kind of look at me funny... LOL

WooHoo...that's awesome. Hopefully everything next week will go well also and soon you'll be on to a new advenutre.

Hey Ladies! I'm so sorry. As soon as I got back from the interview I got pulled into a phone conference and just now got out.
The interview was really really good! The guy I talked to today was the onsite supervisor for the contracting company. He said that my resume has been floating around so they talked to a few people down in Charleston I've worked with and some up here. He said they all told him that if I was interested in moving over to work with him that he needed to snatch me up. I gave him a list of references including other government people I've supported. He told me he didn't need that list because my reputation has already preceded me so he basically already decided he wanted me on board with them. We talked for a little over an hour and found that there are many people that we both know. He is going to set up a time next week for me to come back and talk to the government people I would be supporting. As he put it 'we want you but want to make sure you want us.'... LOL This should be no problem either since I already know a few of the government guys down there.
I feel like I'm floating right now. You ladies are wonderful! Thank you so much for the prayers and positive vibes. I'll keep you posted.
Hugs
Teresa

I do get the 3 day weekend (ah the benefits of working for the state government) which I am much looking forward to. We decided that we are going to go to the cookout to spend time with some of my family, will be heading in to old town afterwards to see what they have to offer & catch the fireworks. Saturday I will be helping a friend who is moving & then Sunday is a little get together with some of the ladies off of my state board. Pretty busy weekend with lots of cool things going on. I am getting pretty excited.
