Been MIA and will be MIA over the next 6 weeks.  Working tons of hours to get bills caught up before surgery on Jan 3rd.  Hopefully we will have 1K in the back before my surgery jsut in case i am out longer.  Good thing is that I have 4 weeks sick time accrued now and 6weeks of aflac at 80% of my take home pay.  So these 2 will help as well.

 Also will be moving to an apartment in the next month.  Thank goodness that my fiance is not working right now.  Hes gonna be the one doing alot of the packing.  I will pack my most prized pocessions though.  Gonna hire movers to move the furniture. We get the keys Nov5.  Plan is to start moving things in the following monday.  Hoping to get the movers for the following weekend.  And Voila!  Presto! Moved!  Then the hard part comes, the unpacking.. LOL.  Good thing I can do that without being on any sort of tineframe.

WIll try to check in here every few days.  I wish you all the best.

I'm so glad you have sick time and aflack time coming to you, as you will need it to get through your time off. Wishing you the best of luck with the move and everything going smoothly for you.

While I have no doubt you need the extra money, please don't over-do too much and wear yourself down. You have to be nice and healthy when it is time for surgery!

Please do check in when you are able.
Hugs

the whole month of dec will be better.  I will be less stressed financially and thus less stressed emotionally as well.  I am also planning to not work as many hours then.  Between what I am making the next month and what we will be saving in rent, I will be able to put it up in NOV and then dec can be a little slack.  DOnt worry.  Fiance is giving me hell about working like this.  He will be putting his foot down before too long and telling me to stop.  I did promise him that it is just til the end of NOV.  On a good note though, I get out out of most of the packing!!!  LOL...  hes got that on his plate. 

I will be enjoying the month of DEC.  But I gotta stay busy or this WAIT will surely kill me..

Thans for your conern.  I give you permission to harrass me as well as my fiance. 

Hope that you are doing well.  Have a great Saturday.  I am off to bed now to get some sleep.  Wor tonight (7p-7a)

Hi Fran, I have been mia too.  Life gets busy, vacation time, time with Patrece visiting, construction in the back yard and some Kathy time too.  Don't overdo yourself, there is more to life than money.  I learned that several years ago when I was working waaaaaaay to much overtime.  No life all work, yuck...

Spent a couple of days along lake superior enjoying the fresh air and the weather changes.  Hoping for construction to start on the walls of the new garage this week.  I will have my craft/studio area for quilting projects on the upper level of the garage.  A room with room to spread out and windows for natural light.  Been working in the basement for the last couple of years.  I need more sunshine that the basement, expecially with the long MN winters.

I moved a couple of years ago, and do not envy your the task.  Take it easy with the packing and unpacking, let your fiance to both your shares.  Hugs
