[ mood | sad ]

Been a while. I guess I have been in a deep sleep since October. 
Alot has happened, then again nothing has. That may not make too mutch sense....
Since October...my daughter kicked her husband out...finally....and filed for divorce....now maybe I won't worry too much about that, at least once he signs the papers

I was sent to New Jersey for 6 days in December by the company I work for. That was cool. Our group did a quick run through New York's Time Square....Ground Zero...and rode the subway the 2nd night there. When I say quick, I mean a couple of hours...including leaving NJ and getting back to NJ. Still I enjoyed going to another one  of our call centers, and meeting other operators. Now I can say I have ridden a plane and been to New York and New Jersey.

Christmas was kinda a sad time. My dad is in such bad health that we didn't do our traditional get together. My brother and oldest sister were sick. So we kinda went by to visit with mom in intervals.

My dad is just barely hanging on right now. I am not coping well at all. I have missed more work in Dec. and Jan. than  I ever have. Some days all I want to do is stay in bed. And I will. One day I called into work at 4:50am got back in bed and slept until 4:00pm. Hate to sound so depressing, but life is what it is sometimes.

Thing that make you go HMMMMM [28 Sep 2007|04:18pm]
[ mood | cheerful ]

When you have a "I Hate My Job" day, try this:

On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the
thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson &
Johnson


Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors,
draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed.

Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair.

Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on
a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.

Now the fun part begins. Take out the literature from the box and read
it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a
statement:

"Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested
and then sanitized ".


Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times,"I am so glad I
do not work in the thermometer quality control at Johnson & Johnson."


HAVE A NICE DAY AND REMEMBER, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB
THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE A $$ THAN YOURS!

Another day of work. Sounds funny after so long being at home.
So much to cram into 2 weeks of training. They train 2 weeks, then put us on the 'floor' to do real calls for another 2 weeks, then we are on our own.
Heaven help the poor person that I get on my very first call.

Kee's fingerprints/ clearance letter finally came in. Now we are waiting for MIL's, then I can have my daycare license application started. I will make sure I don't let anything mess up once I get those suckers in my hands.
Kee had to put up a child size hand rail at the front door, which I am glad of. Two small steps going into the front door doesn't seem like much, but it is for little legs.
I am still having a hard time finding that last substitute I need. I mean, really, I can see why someone wouldn't want to take the time to get a TB test, and take the CPR/First Aid class unless they are going to work full time. There has to be someone out there that is just a daycare sub. And besides, the pay really sucks.
I have parents asking me all the time if I have opened back up, and I am tired of saying no. I'm ready to say "Heck yeah!".

Now on to the daycare to get some stuff done, and laundry...the ever building laundry pile........

Today is my 18th wedding anniversary. What a wonderful 18 years.

Such a tragedy in London today. My prayers go out to the country, and friends of mine that live there.

Just thought I would up date. I'll come back later, hopefully, to catch up on all my friends.

The ball is still rolling around concerning my daycare. Kee and Frances's fingerprints have been mailed. I'm awaiting the application of a friend of mine, to work for me.
And then I can call DHR to come and inspect. I am soooo ready.
Not just financially, but there are other things I miss about it. For one, is the feeling of professionalism. I knew I was good at my job. Taking care of children is the easy part, making it a proffession is the working part for me.

Right now I'm just at home. Cooking, washing clothes, cutting grass, trying to keep up two households. The dryer quit at my MIL'S, so now I wash and dry all the clothes at the daycare, then bring them back over here. When our finances pick up I'll have the dryer fixed.
Kee parked his big truck a few months ago and started driving a company truck. He goes from here, Lanett, through Montgomery, Dothan, Pensacola Fla., then back. He does the same route, and is home every night. I'm glad. It has taken some getting used to, by both of us.
I get up around 4am, fix his lunch, a thermos of coffee, and send him on his way.
Money wise he is making more. The mechanical problems on his truck, then the fuel going so high forced him to park it. Now if we can just sell it.

I must go now and cut the grass. Was going to do it yesterday but I wasn't feeling well.

I love this e-mail [24 May 2005|04:58pm]

Barbecuing is the only type of cooking a real man will do.


When a man declares he will BBQ the following chain of events is put into motion:

1) The woman goes to the store and buys everything.
2) The woman makes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.
3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to man, who is lounging beside the grill, beer or drink in hand.
4) The man places the meat on the grill.
5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer, or drink while he deals with the situation.
7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman.
8) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table.
9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
10) Everyone praises man and thanks him for his cooking efforts.
11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed; her night off. And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing a woman.
