Good Morning. Let the countdown begin!
Do you feel like you want to get this year behind you and start a new one? I'm hoping to. The way our jobs are always hanging by a thread is driving me crazy. I'm hoping we get contracts that are for 4 years and stop all this month-to-month and quarter-by-quarter modification business. Please swing some lizards in our direction for some stability.
Here's hoping everyone has a better 2012

I will swing for you to have some stability for the new year for sure.
Our gates are just opening to the new regulations and requirements on 1-3. I spend 2 hours in billing training yesterday to not find out much and to realize this show has never been on the road, we are the first stop. I've been telling my contractors to put away some pennies, who knows when they will get paid again but for folks living pay check to paycheck, that is hard, especially with the holidays. We know we have jobs, just don't know all the hoops we have to jump through to do them.

Swinging for you both. I am glad I am working now and I am glad DH is still enlisted but they are doing so many cut backs with us now too it isnt funny. I may have to see about a second job to pick up the slack that he is losing
Anyway Heres to an amazing new year and learning how not to be an emotional eater..

I sure hope 2012 starts off better than the way 2011 is ending.
It just has been one thing after another!
Step son totalled his car at 0400 Christmas morning ( thank God, he and my dil walked away), the sewer backed up in the laundry 2 days after Christmas (nothing like the smell of raw sewage in the morning). Work has been hell. The teens are driving me nuts! And the hubby seems to feel the need to drink too much too often lately! Oh and just what I wanted was my monthly a little early for the holiday too. I forgot, I need brakes on my mini van too!
So here's to looking at a better economy, job stability and a happy healthy new year!
Need to try to start focusing on the positive, feeling like a negative nelly lately.

I'm Praying things get better for you Gina. I know that's a terrible feeling when your job is at stake and things keep dragging on.

Actually the second part of 2011 was much better than the end of 2010 and beginning of 2011 for me at work. Things have settled back down and everyone seems to be getting along good!! Thank goodness...
I'll do a Protein Toast with y'all for a great 2012!!
