well it's been a long, long time and i'm having serious withdrawl from my blog page
my title refers to my new "unknown" phase of life, you see i started my new job and it's the end of hell week (training/first week on the job) still not sure if i will like it but it's a job and it pays fairly well. suck it up and move on, i know but i'm having major isues & am v. emotional right now.
first of all i'm really, really missing my old job and pps that i worked with and all the perks of a gov't job....sob sob
secondly i hate adjusting to my new hours, really sucks ass
thirdly i hate calling pps all day long and having my boss tell me that i'm not a telemarketer that i'm a pharmasecutical tele-rep....yeah uh huh tell that to the bitch on the other end that just hung up on me.............
fourthly i have yet to get through to the ever elusive doctor and pretty much everyone else around me has....oh and my "pod" yeah who the hell thinks up this shit (it's basically a group of four pps that work together) has two complete off the wall wacko's in it....they are nice and all but really, creppy and werid and down right odd. one girl doesn't have eyelashes???? does she pull them out? do they fall out?? wtf?????
hmmmm what else is on my mind...........
i am so glad to get this shit out and off of my mind, really not mentally well right now and i feel like screaming and crying most of the time. could just be the weather or could be that i've gone off of my rocker again. i'm v. anxious for it to be spring already and the damn snow just won't go away. i hate march and i so can't wait for it to be over.
oh did i mention that i had to work today....hello it's frickin good friday that should be against the law or something. one bonus is that i did get paid time and a half, way cool but i don't get paid for like 3 wks. great
i hate entering new stages of life and i know that in a couple of weeks everything will be better and ok but i hate change, i hate adjusting and adapting to it and it just SUCKS
in the meantime i still have yet to get my computer back from my brother in law, don't know what the hell he is doing with it probably nothing and i want the fucker back already. i always do our banking on line and i just want to blog........but i have ways as you can see god love my family and aunt lois thanks for the computer!!!!
shouting out to all cousins everyone is doing great in our neck of the woods, good to see aunt Caroline and everyone together tonight here at aunt lois's. just glad to not be sitting home alone while hubby is out wheeling god knows where........
anyways gotta run, may be awhile again but i will be back keep checkin in
see ya later ~

I have a JOB!!!!
yippeeeee
i'm soooo excited
I wen't for an interveiw with a company this morning in Hartland and it was the wurst interview experience ever. I felt like I was in some sort of eposide of Amercian Idol or something. They did the interview with everyone they were interviewing right in the room, then we had a conference call with the "head honcho" one by one and they kept coming back in saying that they weren't or were hired. my nerves were so on wire, that when I finally had to go in I was shaking and sweating so badly, man i was in bad shape, but as soon as the guy started asking questions i was fine and it went superb and then he's like so what would you do if we offered you the job.....and i'm like hello, da, no I didn't but I was like most definetely I would take it. So YESSSSS I start training monday, I have a week off to do nothing and life is starting to look up.
so yeah, i found my way to a computer and i just had to write.
until we meet again my friends, i'm out for now

*update*
I couldn't really think of a title today, so "update" will have to do, espically since it has been a couple of days.
major storm hit tuesday/wednesday morning. our area got hit wicked hard and there is ice everywhere. did not get into work that day & the roads are still an icey mess. so i missed my weekly predictions for AI, i did have 3-4 right though i really thought that nikko deserved to go thorugh and not fat ass scott, he so needs to go home right away.
yesterday - i was uber busy with work as i have tons and tons of stuff that i would like/need to get cleaned up before i leave today. so i didn't even get a chance to come here and post, guess i need to get used to that anyways as it looks like my brother-in-law has yet to fix my computer. so this is my last post for awhile. ~sob~ ha ha i will miss it though
v.weird today and yesterday it's finally hitting me that today is my last day here. wen't home last night v.emotional and upset. not getting any easier or better. i don't really like to say goodbye's and all that so i'm not, i'm just going to pretend it's like any other day and leave it at that. so don't want to cry here and i'm hoping that i don't, did a lot of that last night. so will see.
on the plus side i have had a phone interview for yet another reservation centre in F'ton this time for Delta, they want them to be semi/fully billingual ha ha so not me and i tweaked my resume a little and now i have to do some frickin language test.......so not looking forward to this, will not be pretty. i will probably just end up saying this job is not for me.....sorry. another bonus is i have an interview monday morning for a local business not so far as f'ton and i'm really hoping this will go well as they pay ok and it sounds like a good place to work. the only thing is shift work but at this point i don't care, just give me work with good pay and i'm in. so let's hope that one goes well.
have yet to hear anything from the gov't position, probably be weeks before or if i do, will just have to see. also had a co-worker from here put in a good word with a friend of her's at mccains, so i have my name/resume in there as well. so there is lots and lots of possibilities, just have to be patient & select the right one. v. nerve racking and hard on the head though.
so i have lots going on, my mind is constantly racing and i'm not sleeping, probable nervious breakdown is predicted in my near future.
well i'll see you when i see you my friends, don't forget about me as i will be back, god knows i will miss this and many other things. will have serious withdrawl i'm sure.
wish me luck with my on-going job hunt and see you soon

March Resolutions
lately i've been really noticing my bad habits and instead of doing an "new year's resolution" i'm doing it now in march. better late than never i guess.
so i've complied a little list of all my bad traits/habbits that I am in desperate need of changing. this does not necessarily mean that i will give them up (here's to hoping that I at least give up half of them) but one can only hope.
Bad habit #1 - chewing my nails. i'm espically v.bad right now as i'm stressed out to the MAX so my poor little fin fin's (fingers) do not stand a chance. i'm vowing to change this as my lovely co-workers got me a farewell gift to have a pedicure and manicure, so I have to at least try to slack off of this so I can have nails for her to work with. so far not doing to bad, but this morning i got to chewing on one of my problem nails and yeah i'm sure this will only lead to more chomping this afternoon. i realize that this is a disgusting habit, as many germs, fugi and what not grow under our nails but that just doesn't matter to me. i need to stop this maddness!
habit #2 - eating out at McDonald's, or just plain eating badly (ie: french fries, pizza, anything deep fried....). i've touched on this topic before but i've never actually cut it out of my lifestyle. i did good for like a week and a half and then i was right back to goin thru the drive through.....just plain sad and i'm vowing to not, not eat out this week and once i'm done work i won't be able too. so part of the problem will be solved. the only thing is that when i'm home and bored i like to eat and then eat some more. have been doin somewhat better as i have been trying to buy fruit like apples and oranges so i am making progress.
habit #3 - speeding when i am angry/frustrated. done this a lot lately, in fact most days i feel that i have missed my calling. so should be a professional race car driver, man wouldn't that be fun but really this is not good. luckily, i have never been stopped and god knows i could not afford the bill, but i get great joys out of this but i have scared myself a little so i have slacked off some, but summer is coming and that's not a good sign. but i am trying to rectify this and it's a work in progress & my poor beat up car just can't take the speed like it used to, it starts to shake and rattle around 120KM. poor baby.
habit#4 - drinking pop, any kind of pop whether it's diet, sprite, coke/pepsi. this needs to stop, in fact so far this week i have done well. i'm not a big pop drinker, mabye one a day but i find that it makes me so bloated and feel yucky that i'm just going to cut this out. water all the way baby, and i'm sort of doing a test to see if i feel better in a week or more. will keep you posted
habit#5 - picking the zits on my face until they bleed. yeah this is so not a nice habit to have. ever since i hit my 20's i've been breaking out along my jaw line/on my neck. so not cool. but if and when i find or come across a zit in this area.....oh boy....i will pick and squeeze and pick and pick until i look like i have some sort of rare disease. nasty. been doing ok the last few weeks as i haven't had any major break outs lately *knock on wood*, but when that time of the month comes around you will know as i'm all blotchy and red.
habit#6 - stop being mrs. worry wort. i need to chill out and stop fretting over things that i have no control over. i'm so stressed out over whether or not i should take a job or not i don't know which way is up or down. i can't focus and i'm so damn crabby at home i don't really know how hubby can stand me right now. may be why he spends a lot of the time in our basement.............. i need to relax, and i'm hoping to do this next week.
so i have some challenges ahead but i thing i can beat some of these nasty habits, at least i hope so as i know they bug me and i hate to think of what other pps think.
anyhoo, it's another stormy, yucky day here in the Maritimes. V. Rainy, dark and windy out there, i just hope that it doesn't freezing rain which it's supposed to do.
Again need to stop worrying.......not off to a good start. i'll keep ya's posted!

GD Potholes
my latest erk/quirk is potholes. man i hate these buggers
you see this time of year it's not quite warm enough or cold enough outside that the roads go all to hell. espically here in the wonderfull town of woodstock. it's no wonder i have no shocks or struts in my car. i almost fell into one of these holes and i almost didn't come out of it as it was so GD big. no matter how frickin hard you try to avoid them you still hit a new one or the one you try not to hit every damn morning. sometimes you have no choice but to hit it and grin and bear it as on coming traffic is coming at you. i pity anyone who has a new car, it won't be new for very long on these streets.
note - avoid upper main street at all costs, this is the wurst, wurst ever and go around if at all possible
there are holes, and cracks and bumps and crunks and i just frickin hate it. they won't do anything to these roads until spring so we are just supposed to take this and go along with it. stupid government, stupid town of woodstock grrrrrr
oh and stupid blog today as i was having technical difficulties signing in, etc today, v. complicated/strange and i pretty much had to reboot to solve the problem. grrrrrr
isn't it a lovely day out there today...................NOT

I'm in a FUNK
feelin v. crappy, tired, lazy, no energy what-so-ever, borderline sick & feeling majorly sorry for self today
wanna go home
don't really have anything to talk about today, nothing funny, nothing exciting, just nadda
well one thing exciting is that my sissy is coming home in almost a week. can't wait to see her & spend quality time as I arranged to have my last 3 days of work off just for her (well also for me) but still, so I have the whole week to see her! This is the first time that she's ever come home and I haven't been working. So v. excited to see her & can't wait to take her & joel tubing in upper kintore.
Note to jilly have a sick day at some point when she's home so that you can come with :0)
think that I need to go on a BIG bender and get totally shit faced. Plotting when & where I can do this. Mabye i'll wait to sissy gets home.
found out today that even though i'm done work on the 16th I will still end up getting a paycheck until March 31 as casual employees are back paid, don't really understand it but hey I won't complain. v.cool & takes some of the stress off of my back. I will also have blue cross coverage until then too, so I should stock up on pills & book my dentist appt....he he he so evil.
test that I did on wednesday for gov't job did not go so well. extremely difficult & nerve wracking, don't really have a good feelin about it but you never know what the hell they are looking for. i'm not going to hold my breath for it though, if they call great, if not then onto something else.
well that's it for today ~ have a great, super duper weekend

AI Predictions - Week Two & Amazaing Race is BACK
Predictions for Amercian Idol this week are a little tougher but I have it narrowed down.
Bottom 3 Boyz
Wurst performance of the night has to go to Anthony Fedorov the boy can sang but he reminds me too much of a guy that I graduated with who could sing ok, but he was gay and Anthony is gay and he looks and sounds just like Clay Atkien. Sorry Anthony but one Clay is enough. His performance was v. boring and draggy until he hit some good long notes, overall not good enough and he lacks major charisma & stage prescene. Should be one to go.
2nd pick to go is David Brown. The judges keep saying that he's better than that and he needs to step it up. I don't like him, song was lame and boring and down right painful for me & I don't like his resemblance to a cling on from Star Trek either. Lose the dreds man. If he doesn't go (which he probably won't) then he will soon, guranteed
3rd pick to possibly go home is Constaine Maroulis. I liked this guy right away, lately not so much. His attitude and ego are way to much to take in & he's not that great of a singer. Still I find him extremely hot and sexy (must be the long shaggy hair & resemblance to a hippy, man I have a weak spot for hippies......) ok sorry got derailed there, his performance just wasn't up to snuff and I don't think he's connecting. Could be wrong here and I probably am as i'm sure the girls are voting for him but again I don't feel he will be around very long.
My surprize performance of the night that just blew me (and the judges) away was Bo Bice. He's not as sexy or cool as Constaine but man can this guy rock and sing. I didn't know the song, didn't care, he was AMAZING, totally took me by surprize and codo's to him for steppin up to the plate. Keep it up buddy, got to have at least one rocker/hippy dude in the competition.
Bottom 3 Girlz
Janay Castine, girl you should have went home last week at least you could have left gracefully. Where to begin with you....oh god her outfit was just tacky, tacky, tacky. The song choice was "hit em up style" by Blu Cantrell. Good song to sing along with while drivin a car but it was her only song, a one hit wonder per say. Don't ever pick a one hit wonder pps you know your headin down a one way alley if you do and that's out the door. Good riddance Janay never liked you anyways.
Celena Raye chose to sing a Faith Hill song.........shaking head........you just don't, DON'T ever chose to do a Faith Hill song. Everytime they do they don't come close and it's just brutal and it hurts your ears. Previous contants have gong down this road and she should have known better. Agree with Simon (as usual) that she should be singing in a hotel, she just doesn't have that somethin that would make her stand out. She's pretty enough and sings ok but it's just not good enough.
3rd and final pick is Alhoa Mischeaux. First of all wtf was up with her wack hairdo? Holy cow looked faguely like a beehive yet it still had pieces on the sides.....weird & nasty. Second of all again don't touch pps song's that you don't belong in. IE Alicia Keys, the girl is one of the best acts out there right now and you just don't go near her stuff cause your gonna flop big time. Not a good performance, nasty hair but she seems to be a favorite of the judges so I dunno but I think she deserves to be here (for now anyways)
Surprize performance of the night goes to Mikalah Gordon whom I still am not really liking as she sounds to nasal to me but she stepped up last night and chose a song that the judges didn't expect her to ever do and she was pretty good I must say. Showing that she is versatile & a competor to be reckoned with. She'll be around for awhile yet.
Ok, enough of AI onto bigger and better things.....god i'm so excited that this is on again I can't contain myself. Amazing Race 7 started last night and I love, love this show and to top it off Rob and Amber from SURVIVOR are on it. Now most pps hate them but I am in love with Rob, love his attitude (he so just does it for the camera & he makes good t.v), love how smart and witty he is, etc, etc etc. They probably won't get that far in this as everyone in it does not want them to win, but i'm so happy just to see him back on t.v that I hope they last for awhile yet. Other fav teams so far are the two gay guys who are just too funny and out there that I can't help but laugh; the two semi hot brothers ~ watch out for them pps; and the guy who is contantly bitchin at his on/off girlfriend why I like them I dunno.
Teams that I hate are of course the two dumb blondes who were all like were "skinny" and "blonde" and don't judge us by our looks. Stupid tits, but I do give them codo's for actually doing the basket challenge, god knows I couldn't have done it. I don't like the African American married couple either just something there that I am not liking.
Lots and lots of good t.v on lately and it's only just begun. So EXCITING he he he he
Well, I get to leave early again today, have to be in F'ton for 5:00 to take my test for a gov job that I applied for. Really nervous and anxious just to get it over with. I just don't or I should say that i'm trying not to get my hopes up to much but I would really, really love to have this job & it would just make things so much easier if I did get it. Guess I just have to keep tellin myself that if it's ment to be then it will "be". It's out of my hands and I need to quit fretting.
Easier said than done.
Anyways, gotta run ~ Wish me luck :0)

Janay Castine, girl you should have went home last week at least you could have left gracefully. Where to begin with you....oh god her outfit was just tacky, tacky, tacky. The song choice was "hit em up style" by Blu Cantrell. Good song to sing along with while drivin a car but it was her only song, a one hit wonder per say. Don't ever pick a one hit wonder pps you know your headin down a one way alley if you do and that's out the door. Good riddance Janay never liked you anyways.
Celena Raye chose to sing a Faith Hill song.........shaking head........you just don't, DON'T ever chose to do a Faith Hill song. Everytime they do they don't come close and it's just brutal and it hurts your ears. Previous contants have gong down this road and she should have known better. Agree with Simon (as usual) that she should be singing in a hotel, she just doesn't have that somethin that would make her stand out. She's pretty enough and sings ok but it's just not good enough.
3rd and final pick is Alhoa Mischeaux. First of all wtf was up with her wack hairdo? Holy cow looked faguely like a beehive yet it still had pieces on the sides.....weird & nasty. Second of all again don't touch pps song's that you don't belong in. IE Alicia Keys, the girl is one of the best acts out there right now and you just don't go near her stuff cause your gonna flop big time. Not a good performance, nasty hair but she seems to be a favorite of the judges so I dunno but I think she deserves to be here (for now anyways)
Surprize performance of the night goes to Mikalah Gordon whom I still am not really liking as she sounds to nasal to me but she stepped up last night and chose a song that the judges didn't expect her to ever do and she was pretty good I must say. Showing that she is versatile & a competor to be reckoned with. She'll be around for awhile yet.
Ok, enough of AI onto bigger and better things.....god i'm so excited that this is on again I can't contain myself. Amazing Race 7 started last night and I love, love this show and to top it off Rob and Amber from SURVIVOR are on it. Now most pps hate them but I am in love with Rob, love his attitude (he so just does it for the camera & he makes good t.v), love how smart and witty he is, etc, etc etc. They probably won't get that far in this as everyone in it does not want them to win, but i'm so happy just to see him back on t.v that I hope they last for awhile yet. Other fav teams so far are the two gay guys who are just too funny and out there that I can't help but laugh; the two semi hot brothers ~ watch out for them pps; and the guy who is contantly bitchin at his on/off girlfriend why I like them I dunno.
Teams that I hate are of course the two dumb blondes who were all like were "skinny" and "blonde" and don't judge us by our looks. Stupid tits, but I do give them codo's for actually doing the basket challenge, god knows I couldn't have done it. I don't like the African American married couple either just something there that I am not liking.
Lots and lots of good t.v on lately and it's only just begun. So EXCITING he he he he
Well, I get to leave early again today, have to be in F'ton for 5:00 to take my test for a gov job that I applied for. Really nervous and anxious just to get it over with. I just don't or I should say that i'm trying not to get my hopes up to much but I would really, really love to have this job & it would just make things so much easier if I did get it. Guess I just have to keep tellin myself that if it's ment to be then it will "be". It's out of my hands and I need to quit fretting.
Easier said than done.
Anyways, gotta run ~ Wish me luck :0)

Holy Cow it's a Blizzard out there!!!
man oh man it's one hell of a crazy, wild-n-windy day out there and to top it off it's snowing. There are white out conditions all over the highway's and the RCMP are telling pps to stay off the road.
Why the hell are we still open??? Can anyone explain this to me. I just was talking to my supervisor and apparantly an e-mail was sent out by the "big" guy that pps who live out of town (ie: me) can leave early but they will have to make up the time. WTF??? If I die on the way home I will come back and haunt your sorry asses.
Are employees not worth more to their employers? I just don't get this, I know we deal with emergency situations but give me a break who the hell would venture out in this thing? This is way worse than last time when they shut us down and nobody seems to be saying anything. What to do, should I stay or should I go???? I hate making decisions, but i'm pretty sure I will head out at least in the next hour or so. I don't really give a rats ass if I lose hours i'm outta here in 2 wks anyways, what do I have to lose.
~sigh~
So not looking forward to driving home in this mess. To make matter's worse I have a headlight that's burnt out so with my luck i'll probably get stopped by the cops and get a ticket or something.
Wish me luck ~

OSCAR, OSCAR READ ALL ABOUT IT!!
I love, LOVE the oscar's. Not really for the awards (they are usually boring), but mostly for the fashion and the history of great movies. I don't usually stay up for the entire show and last night was no exception (typically I last until after the best supporting actor/actress and then i'm ready for bed). So last night I was all excited watching the count down, all the rich and famous beatiful pps walking down the famous "red" carpet. I would give some sort of vital organ to do this some day, but for now all I can do is watch and wish I could be there.
There weren't many surprizes last night (already been on MSN, gotta love it!), the pps expected to win did. Congrats to Hilary Swank (Best Actress), Jamie Foxx (Best Actor), Morgan Freeman (Best Supporting Actor), Cate Blanchett (Best Supporting Actress) and Clint Eastwood for Best Director and Best picture. I'm kinda glad I didn't stay up as I it was v. predictable and boring. Chris Rock just didn't stand up to the job i'm afraid, he was just lacking something and it's hard to fill the shoes of the likes of Johnny Carson, BillyCrystal, etc, just didn't enjoy him last night ~sorry~.
So in typical blogger style here is my list of best dressed and worst dressed (in my opinion anyways)
Best Dressed :
Cate Blanchett - wearing a "gorgegous" Valentino pale yellow silk taffeta gown was just absolutely stunning and old fasion Hollywood. Loved everything about this dress, the train, the burgandy satin bow, the colour. This women is just beautiful inside and out and she's such a wonderful actress and i'm glad she brought the Ocsar home.
Halle Berry - Does this women ever, EVER look like shit?? Seriousily she could be wearing a potato sack and covered in horse manure and she would still be stunningily beautiful. I almost want to hate her but she's just such a nice, kind, genuine person that I can't. She was wearing a iridescent taupe silk chiffon Versace one shoulder gown with embroidered shirt. She looked flawless and radiant. Unlike some of the other women who chose to wear taupe (see more below) she pulls this off well and then some. Another Oscar dress well done. Whoever is her stylist deserves every penny they get as they know what she can and can't wear and time after time she is just amazing.
Kate Winslet - Again another beautiful, flawless women who never does wrong. Didn't really see much of her on the red carpet but in her photo's, WOW. She chose to wear a Badgley Mischka in periwinkle blue (my fav colour), with a beaded inset down the front of the bodice. Love the colour and the style of the dress. Perfect for her and she looked fab. My only hopes is that some day she does get awarded an oscar as she is a one of a kind talent and she deserves it (mabye next time)
Charlize Theron - Last years best actress winner didn't fail fashion wise this year either. This dress is just dreamy and wonderful. Loved the seafoam Dior gown, with endless amounts of tulle. Looked so fluffy and soft and she couldn't look any better. Well done Charlize.
Beyonce - This girl had more wardrobe changes throughout the night but her inital walk down the red carpet in a black silk velvet Versace was striking and just simply Beyonce. I am just thankful that she didn't wear one of her mother's gawd awful tacky pieces that she's worn in the past.
Scarlett Johansson - My first inital look at this dress was not good but the more I saw her in it the more I liked it plus her honest remark to a reporter that she "couldn't breathe" made me appreciate her humour and her spirit. I'm not a big fan of black but it's a timeless classic and this Roland Mouret gown had a classic 20's feel to it and it grew on me. So I had to put her here.
My in between girl (not sure if I like or dislike, leaning more towards dislike as of right now but i keep changing my mind) is none other than Hilary Swank. She wore a slim fitting, tight sapphire blue gown with long sleeves and high neck and totally backless, not leaving much to the imgination. She did look stunning and certainly got everyone's attention but again just not liking how "tight" it was and not digging.
Worst Dressed:
Natalie Portman - I normally like her and her tastes in clothes, but boy did she go wrong last night. I loved her Roman headpiece but that's as far as that goes. The dress was ill fitted and it just looked nasty. The colour was wrong, wrong wrong ~ girl you can do much, much better and your so pretty all I can say is why??
Gwyneth Paltrow - I'm not a fan of Gwyneth and I hated her pink dress that she wore years ago when she won for "Shakesphere in love". Last night was no different. The dress was ok but the taupe/beige colour was wrong on her. It would just be the same for me, it washes us out and therefore you don't, I repeat don't wear it. Plus she should have had her hair pulled back loosely, or in some kinda up to, i'm not a fan of having hair down with a gown (exception for Halle Berry only).
Rene Zellweger - Again not a fan of Rene, hate her facial expressions when she does the red carpet, hate how super duper skinney she is I almost want to jump thru the screen and give her a donut or something eat girl PLEAZE! Her dress wasn't bad but it was clung so tightly to her uber skinny frame and she looked pained when she walked, also do not, NOT like her brunette locks does not do a thing for her and pls go back to blonde asap
Regina King - Not sure what film this girl is in but she looks familar. Again this was a taupe/beige dress gone wrong. Nasty frilly thing on her shoulder and the colour just does not do her justice. I'm sure she's a beautiful lady, but she looked fugly last night ~sorry~
Melanie Griffith - nasty, nasty, nasty is all I can say about her dress and her mane of bleach blonde hair. She chose to wear Versace (and on anyone else it probably would have been ok) again in a beigey colour. Washed her out and all I can remember seeing is pleats of silk with some embroidery on it. Poor Mel looks like she has been rode hard and put away wet. One to many plastic surgeries perhaps?
That's my take on it all and i'm sure I forgot a few but that's all I saw last night and in some pics today so take it or leave it.
It's quite obvious that I have nothing really to do today and I have zero amount of energy to work today & i'm fighting an extreme headache (been with me since I woke up this "am") but i'm still here at work (only 2 wks left) and i'm on the hunt for a job. Ended up turning down the job in F'ton that I had an interview for last week ~ I wasn't anticipating them wanting me to start on Thursday and the more I thought about it and weighed out the pro's and con's it just wasn't worth it for me to go all that way (an hour) to be making what I would be making & I would be doing shift work starting my shift at like 4:45 PM until 1:00 AM in the morning, which means I wouldn't get home until after 2AM and when hubby finally gets back to work that just won't go over well, so I turned it down. May end up regretting it in fact I kinda already am but I am pretty sure I made the right decision. Something will come up and I didn't feel comfortable jumping on the first opportunity.
Well I should try to do something today but i'm not up to it. Supposed to go after work to have a super in my honour with most of the girls from work. Not really looking forward to it as it's really hitting home that I am going to be done in 2wks. Hard to believe & hard to take in.
That's all for today ~ i'm out

this and that
don't know what to talk about today, i'm really jittery and nervous for my interview this afternoon. Not sure why, I usually don't get nervous but I am and it's bugging the heck out of me. Get to leave work early though *BONUS* can't complain about that.
Well I got two of my predictions right, not bad I might add but I forgot about Melinda (boy she must have really blown for me to forget her that quickly...) and it really surprized me to see Judd go, although when he sang his song again last night he probably deserved to be goin home. I liked him though, just somethin about him.
I've been having weird dreams lately, which is highly unusual for me as I never dream let alone remember them. It's strange as I usually hit the pillow and i'm out and I don't recall anything but blissfull darkness. But in the last week I have had several dreams sequences where there is some kind of crisis related to the end of the world. In one dream is was due to war/nuclear bombs, etc and in the other dream (one on one night and the other following the next right behind it) pps were extremely sick and dying but it was similar to Dawn of the Dead. V. Creepy and werid and I wake up with this icky strange deja vu feeling. Really strange and bizare. Didn't really hit me until I spoke with a girl that this could all be somehow related to the drastic changes that I am facing which could be true. Just really strange and it creeps me out to the MAX.
Went home last night feelin all bloated and FAT and decided that I would take my two monsters of dogs (German Shepards, one female & one male) for a walk into the big village and back as it was fairly warm out and it would do myself good and it would be good for them. They got sooooo excited that they dragged me for about half of the way until they finally got a little tired. Almost fell on my face several times, and i'm sure that all the pps driving by thought "who da hell", and i looked so cute with my hat and nice jogging pants (being very sarcastic here). But it felt GREAT the fresh air, the nice peaceful quite tranqulity of the woods, but man i'm really starting to work up a sweat and it's starting to get a little dark, so not good, getting a little scared now.....umm it's getting a little creepy now, the damn dogs decided to chase after a squirel or something and pretty much pulled my arm out of joint that feels nice, also am starting to get a blister on one of my baby toes and that hurts too but hey I finally made it home and I feel Fab as I got off of my ass and did something. Now to find something to eat.....heh heh heh
Where it's that time of the month ~ ya know what i'm talking about ~ i've been craving, no that doesn't do it justice but I can't describe it any diffently chocolate, so what do I go and do, stupid me, I had to pick up some groceries yesterday and i'm in the damn chip/snack isle (god I hate that isle) and lo and behold it was like a bright light shining and saints singing and everything there lies the mini Reeses Peanut Butter cups. OMG I frickin love these little bastards and i'm drooling in the middle of the isle and I cannot, CANNOT possibly wait another second to tear into the fuckers. So i'm booting it for the check out and i'm starting to froth at the mouth i'm so ravenous for these. I race to the car and throw in my other junk that I had to get and then i'm in the driver seat and it's just pure and simple maddness now and then there open and oh gawd how wonderfull, words cannot describe the pleasure I had in that moment. To die for and now i've been eating them left and right and I just can't stop. Thankfully, I only get like this mabye every 3-4 months, so it's not like every month but still just wrong on many levels
Well I have got to do some work today at least for another hour, ha ha get to leave at 2 today, Wish me luck in my interview ~ See ya suckers!!

American Idol (AI) Predictions - Week One
Ok, I'll try this again, last time I lost it and i probably won't remember most of it ~ stupid internet! Anyways, I want to start doing this every week as it makes me feel high up in the world, just call me H.Foster Recording Marketing Executive extrondinair (another dream job of mine.....heh heh). Move over Simon! ha ha ha ha
Anways let's see if I remember what I typed last time.
The boys - my bottome 3 pics
Jared Yates - He Sang "How could I". Simon compaired him to a "boy" band reject and that about sums this guy up. Can't sing, painful to watch, no flare or personality at all. I had him on mute and it still hurt to watch. Pack your bags boy your goin home.
Scott Savol - Sang "You are my lady". This is a fat whiteboy who looks like he belongs as an extra on the t.v. show "the soprano's". I admit he can sing but he's so grose and creepy to look at that it just ruins it for me. The last thing we need out there is another Ruben Stoddard that starts sweating as soon as they open there mouth to sing. Nasty.
Joseph Murena - Sang "How am I supposed to Live without you". That should say enough really, who sings or wants to sing a Michael Bolton song. BORING and lame. Had him on mute to as he hurt my ears. This guy looks at least over 30 and I am sure he lied his age to get into the contest. The judges gave him encouraging words though and said he's better than that but i'm sure the voting public will think differently.
The Girls - Bottom 3 pics
Sarah Mather - She sang "Get Ready". The judges were brutal on her song choice and I tend to agree. Just didn't work even though I tried to give her a chance. I couldn't remeber her from the audtions stages and i'm thankful that I haven't seen more. She reminds me a lot of a girl that lives close to where I do and is actually dating my hubby's cousin, snagle tooth and all, even the hair (when she had it longer) was the same. WEIRD. Everyone has a twin out there I guess but she has no chance in hell of movin on
Amanda Avila - Sang "How am I supposed to live....." another Michael Bolton song. HELLO pps if you saw a guy sing the same song the night before and totally blow goats don't sing that song too. WRONG wrong wrong.I think that's what she sang and it's what they had posted on the net, course I could be wrong and I can't really remember, I just know it sucked ass. Pretty girl (hubby liked her), she can sing but she's just missin that somethin. Don't think she will get that far and I kinda liked her early on but not so much anymore. Sorry but I think your on your way out
Janay Castine - Sang "I wanna love you forever" Overall the judges were quite nice to her and said that she can be good but her performances last night didn't show it. The girl looked absoltely terrified and she was so shaky and spazzie that I thought she was having a seizure. Vocals were all over and she looked like a deer caught in the headlights. She may be ok, but based on last nights performance she better have a strong fan/family base and she better snap around next week or she won't last long.
so those are my pics and hopefully this will work this time....beter save it first.....done now let's see if I can post it this time............

Joseph Murena - Sang "How am I supposed to Live without you". That should say enough really, who sings or wants to sing a Michael Bolton song. BORING and lame. Had him on mute to as he hurt my ears. This guy looks at least over 30 and I am sure he lied his age to get into the contest. The judges gave him encouraging words though and said he's better than that but i'm sure the voting public will think differently.
The Girls - Bottom 3 pics
Sarah Mather - She sang "Get Ready". The judges were brutal on her song choice and I tend to agree. Just didn't work even though I tried to give her a chance. I couldn't remeber her from the audtions stages and i'm thankful that I haven't seen more. She reminds me a lot of a girl that lives close to where I do and is actually dating my hubby's cousin, snagle tooth and all, even the hair (when she had it longer) was the same. WEIRD. Everyone has a twin out there I guess but she has no chance in hell of movin on
Amanda Avila - Sang "How am I supposed to live....." another Michael Bolton song. HELLO pps if you saw a guy sing the same song the night before and totally blow goats don't sing that song too. WRONG wrong wrong.I think that's what she sang and it's what they had posted on the net, course I could be wrong and I can't really remember, I just know it sucked ass. Pretty girl (hubby liked her), she can sing but she's just missin that somethin. Don't think she will get that far and I kinda liked her early on but not so much anymore. Sorry but I think your on your way out
Janay Castine - Sang "I wanna love you forever" Overall the judges were quite nice to her and said that she can be good but her performances last night didn't show it. The girl looked absoltely terrified and she was so shaky and spazzie that I thought she was having a seizure. Vocals were all over and she looked like a deer caught in the headlights. She may be ok, but based on last nights performance she better have a strong fan/family base and she better snap around next week or she won't last long.
so those are my pics and hopefully this will work this time....beter save it first.....done now let's see if I can post it this time............

Daily Weekender Report
Friday ~ felt sorry for myself, slept in until my mother called and dragged my sorry ass out of bed and got me a movin. Applied in person for two jobs in F'ton (don't really want one but applied anyways...) really liked the other one, in fact they have already called me back for an interview (yippee), ate at Swiss Chalet, yum yum and came home as we are both poor and did not want to venture into the mall
Saturday ~ again felt sorry for myself, stayed in bed well past 1:00 PM, cousin jilly called around that time to go with her & "m" for some kind of ski-doo races at Palfry. Loaded up in the old civic and went for a bumble, turns out that it was over packed and we weren't dressed warm enough, decided to head to Klinkers instead to eat & drink some beer. Continued on our bumble through the back roads of McAdam and Canterbury, then proceed to a friends camp at 1st Eel, "m" put the car into a snow bank while we were all singing along to "I think were alone now" by Tiffany, to funny & good times
Sunday ~ Did absoltely shit, laid in bed pretty much the entire day & watched useless mindless T.V. actually got kind of bored and restless but still way to lazy to do anything about it. Got my weekly dose of Desperate Housewives, good show, can't really remember much now but yeah I think it was good
Monday ~ Again slept in, got to watch some daytime t.v. for a change can't really say that i've missed it. I've realized though that my dream job would to be a "barker" girl on the price is right. I mean how fucking cool would that job be, you get to dress up in dresses, outfits, bathing suits and parade around on stage waving your manicured hands and fake smiling and the fun rather disgusting flirting with Bob Barker who really looks more like a white haired skelton every day (how old is this man anyways......"shudders" just wrong). After my yearly dose of the Price is Right I had to get ready for yet another ultra sound and no i'm not preggers.....anyhoo had to drink 2-3 glasses of water an hour before hand so not fun and rather painful this time around. The stupid doctors here in Woodstock are jerks and asses and I was not impressed by their service and they made me feel stupid and like I was a waste of their time. I know something is not right with me but they can never locate anything on my overies and it's an endless cycle that i'm getting sick of, so yet again nothing came up on the scan and I wanted to leave there blatting but i didn't and my poor kidneys hurt for like an hour afterwords.
Returned home to have yet another nap only to wake up an hour and a half later to watch General Hospital and the proceed to be bored until American Idol came on at 9:00 only to be hugely dissappointed the men sucked ass! Like only 1 or 2 really interested me the rest of them blew goats quite litterally. One guy Antwar I think was really good vocally but he totally freaked me out at the end when they were going over his numbers he just stood there with this stuipd freakish grin on his face and he totally scared me. He looked like an alien or robot, really watch it back and you'll see what i mean......doo dooo doo (twilight zone music here). My fav Constaine kinda turned me off last night with his cocky attitude & vocally he was not on last night. The only ones that I feel belong there are Mario (he rocked the end of the show), Antwar (still creepy), Constaine, Bo, The Dude who sang Travelling Band don't know name, the rest can go the fuck home cause you SUCK, your boring, not cool and you SUCK. Don't drag this out for weeks man just send the lame ones home!!! GRRRR god knows what tonight will bring with the girls.........
So now it's Tuesday and i've been pretty busy at work (well not really) but it looks good to write it. Have one interview for Thursday this week (for a call centre in F'ton don't think I want it but will do the interview anyways) and the good news of the day was to find out that I have been one of the "chosen" ones to go for testing (basically screening before and interview) for the same department that i'm with now only in F'ton. So hopefully that goes really well and cross your fingers and toes that I get an interview and better yet the position as it's really great money and I really would like to stay within the gov't so that one day I can transfer back here......anyways i'm getting off topic. Oh I almost forgot, found out that they did get the 2wks of training for the new dude coming in on the first, therefore I don't get the boot until March 11. Which I will take, better than next Monday.
So that's it for my Weekend update, really didn't do or accomplish much but there it is for all to see and enjoy.

Raising "boys"
no I am not a mother nor do I plan to be any time in the near future but I don't really have anything to say today and I really like this joke that a good friend of mine just sent me so onto my blogger page it goes. Hope you enjoy!
a) For those with no children - this is totally hysterical!
b) For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious.
c) For those who have children this age, this is not funny.
d) For those who have children nearing this age, this is a warning.
e) For those who have not yet had children, this is birth control.
The following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, Texas . . .
THINGS I'VE LEARNED FROM MY BOYS (honest and not kidding):
1.) A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. foot
house 4 inches deep.
2.) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with
roller blades, they can ignite.
3.) A 3-year old boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
4.) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to
rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape.
It is strong enough, however if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls
of a 20x20 ft. room.
5.) You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When
using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times
before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6.) The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball
hit by a ceiling fan.
7.) When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's
already too late.
8.) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
9.) A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a flint rock even
though a 36-year old man says they can only do it in the movies.
10.) Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a
4-year old boy.
11.) Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12.) Super glue is forever.
13.) No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool, you still
can't walk on water.
14.) Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15.) VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TV commercials
show they do.
16.) Garbage bags do not make good parachutes. (Brandon has already
tried this with a Co-op grocery bag)
17.) Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18.) You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19.) Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not
like ovens. (Pat did this)
20.) The fire department in Austin, TX (my home town) has a 5-minute
response time.
21.) The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms
dizzy.
22.) It will, however, make cats dizzy.
23.) Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.
24.) 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake
fluid.
25.) Women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids.
You know it will be just my luck to end up having 2 boys someday and then if i'm crazy (and i'm sure I will be) will try our luck for a third child wishing for a girl and it will be yet another boy. And they will all be little terrors and i'm sure I will have a daily occurance of the incidents mentioned above. Let's hope and pray that this never, EVER happens okay.

It's a NEW day
ok, i'm feelin somewhat better today.
Wen't home last night and blatted my eyes out, had to get it all out of my system so I won't end up doing it here at the office. Didn't really acheive anything by doing it but I am feeling better today. I'm staying positive and I keep telling myself that everything will be ok and it will all work out. It's just very frustrating though as I just went through all of this shit two years ago at my previous position. Funny how things work out for me.
I've been on-line searching for jobs, hoping to do up some resumes today and start getting them out. I have Friday and Monday off coming up and mabye I will take one of those days just to hand out resumes, not all that fun but it needs to be done. Cross your fingers and wish me luck :0)
Called into my Dr.'s office to see if I can get 3 months worth of birth control pills while I still have my blue cross coverage. Shouldn't be a problem so that's one less worry that I won't have to think about. Also got suckered into booking yet another lovely yearly exam that all women have to suffer through scheduled for Thrusday morning ~great~
Which now leaves more space in the old brain dept for me to worry about financial woes. Hubby couldn't really care, he's so laid back and takes everything in stride. He's all like that's what our line of credit is there for and hell no!! Dammit we don't need to put ourselves into further debt ~ oh fuck I really can't handle this shit. I'm sure a mental breakdown is in the near future for me.
Finally heard from my sissy who lectured me for not calling her either ~ regardless I was soooo glad to hear from here and I got her new phone number and called her last night in my desperation. She always calms me down and cheers me up ~ thanks sissy~
I'm having serious anxiety and stress and today I am even noticing that I have chest pain and my throat is kinda sore. Mabye i am slowly dying like I stated in a previous post that or i am just coming down with the cold that has been running rampant through the office
i'm not really looking forward to my vacation days any more, which is surprzing as two weeks ago I was just itching for a break. Weird
I'm super duper hungry and my lunch that I brought today sucks ass, chances are high that I will end up either eating out or raiding the grocery store when I am there to pick up bread and some dog food.
Time to put on my happy face and go back to pretending that eveything is ok. Only you and I know the real truth.
I'm out

Fuck A Duck
Well it's offical, the Program Officer (PO) position has been filled and this guy is supposed to start work on March 1.
Lovely, I knew deep down that my gut was right and i'm glad that I was at least semi prepared for this. On the positive side they are trying to arrange it so that this guy gets like 2-3 weeks of orientation which means that I would get to hang around a little longer than just two weeks, the only problem is they don't know if this is approved yet or not, another "lovely" fits here ~ just fucking shoot me now and get it over with.
My supervisor was extremely nice though and said that if they could keep me instead of some other workers things would be great, but still that means no job for me ~sob~ i don't know what the hell to think or to do. I have been applying for positions every now and then but nothing, nadda, silch. And I really really really hate going on un-employment but I probably won't have any other choice, and I just don't know how the 2 of us will get buy both being on EI. If it was a month from now it wouldn't be a big deal as he ususally gets sent back in early April. Now i'm really fretting and down, happy thoughts
At least it's fucking Valentines Day - stupid fucking holiday
stupid fucking life
supid fucking job
fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

a little of everything
My mood today is a combination of everything, i'm not really happy, i'm not overly angry, i'm not really sad i just don't know today.
Another big HUGE mofo storm coming today (already starting to snow) and this time i'm sure it's going to hit us new brunswickers hard, were supposed to get anywhere's between 20-30 cm of snow....so hopefully tommorrow will be a snow day YIPPEEE but probably not ~ i can dream can't i????
Yesterday I worked very hard all day trying to sort and organize our dept's filing system so that's my excuse as to why i'm so damn tired and lazy today and I don't feel like doing jack shit
Hubby and I wen't to his grandmother's house last night to pick up his gun that was left to him only to come out with box after box of little trinkets and nick nacks. Also found out that we will probably get a wicker set of a loveset & chairs and table and will probably be able to get the deep freezer as well. Had several failed attempts to get one of the big comfy leather recliners though....dammit
got my one day of curves in yesterday don't think I will be back this week
my two fingers are very sore and swollen today and are looking like they are getting or going to be infected. V Red and are oozing, kinda cool actually
Hubby is all excited about the new Survivor that is coming on tonight and I couldn't give a rats ass. Chances are it will be a royal rumble tonight at my house as it's on at the same time as the OC and I never miss an episode of the OC and I will be soooo mad at him if we don't watch it. I am so sick of Survivor as it's all the same old crap and it's just not exciting any more, call it quits while your ahead Mark whatever your name is or better yet come up with something new and better
Can you belive that a chick from American Idol got thru to the next round and she talked herself out of the opportunity! Stupid, dumbass move chicky when if ever will you have another opportunity like this? Dumb move and i'm sure you are kicking yourself in the ass right now, i know I would be
Have been a lot of sick pps here at the office lately, every time I turn around someone else is sick or hacking and coughing. What I don't understand is why they insist on coming into work like this. What the hell are you trying to prove? Stay the fuck at home and don't spread you frigging germs, I don't want it and i'm sure nobody else does here too! This really ticks me off. Unless you don't get paid sick days (like me ~ he he) and you are in serious financial trouble and you desperately need the money stay home, rest get better and try again another day
it's really cold in here today BRRRRRRRRR
I really, really, really miss my sissy (aka my sister). She lives out in Western Canada and her and her army boyfriend Joel (pronouced JOEL kinda like Noel christmas time you know I can't put the funny astriks thingy over the e....god i'm dumb) are moving to Kingston, Ontario and I haven't heard from her in weeks and she never comes on here and i am seriousily missing her. I don't know how she is or what's new and it's just plain odd and weird. I don't know why she hasn't called and my feelings are kinda hurt ~sob~ he he only a little I just wish I knew how things are for her in a new city and all and I want her to call me dammit!
woke up in a fog again this morning, so did not want to get out of bed I didn't really come fully awake until about 15 minutes ago and it's only shortly after 11:00 in the morning.
Looked down and of course my socks don't match ~ typical for me but today my pants are really short and they ride up past the ankle (which I so hate but they were the only pants clean.....) and everyone keeps telling me my socks don't match......i know already leave me the F alone
well that's it for another day, I just got busy doing other stuff and I totally forgot that I was on-line doing this.....WHOOPS won't look very good better get movin!
Take care all and to everyone in New Bruswick drive safe and keep it outta the ditch!
Another big HUGE mofo storm coming today (already starting to snow) and this time i'm sure it's going to hit us new brunswickers hard, were supposed to get anywhere's between 20-30 cm of snow....so hopefully tommorrow will be a snow day YIPPEEE but probably not ~ i can dream can't i????
Yesterday I worked very hard all day trying to sort and organize our dept's filing system so that's my excuse as to why i'm so damn tired and lazy today and I don't feel like doing jack shit
Hubby and I wen't to his grandmother's house last night to pick up his gun that was left to him only to come out with box after box of little trinkets and nick nacks. Also found out that we will probably get a wicker set of a loveset & chairs and table and will probably be able to get the deep freezer as well. Had several failed attempts to get one of the big comfy leather recliners though....dammit
got my one day of curves in yesterday don't think I will be back this week

~ Wipe Out ~
This morning was a typical any other morning for me, I got up did my daily routine of a shower, trying to find something clean to wear, grooming myself, getting my lunch together and then finally going out and starting my car so it can run for a few minutes. This morning I did this later than usual as it has been extremely mild here in our neck of the woods and last night it rained/freezing rained and I probably shouldn't even have bothered starting it early as it really did not need it but oh no I had to stick to the routine.
So here I am in a hurry running just a tad late and I only put my shoes half on and I didn''t bother with a coat so I step outside and wow it's so warm out I go down one step, and then another and all of a sudden i'm airborne and everything is happening in slow motion and I can feel myself falling and then next thing I know i'm rolling on the ground in a heap and my right hand takes the brunt of the fall and I get gravel in my nuckles and palm and ohhhhh GAWD it hurts....HURTZ!!!! And I feel like laughing hysterically at myself and I look around to make sure that nobody had seen my little blip and I want to giggle but I can't because my hand is burning and i'm bleeding and dammit if I don't want to cry a little. In the mean time i'm still on the cold, wet, icy ground and I can't seem to pull my ass up which is also hurting a little, so I muck it up and pull myself up off the ground and turn on the stupid piece of shit car. It's all her fault the stupid bitch.
My poor little pinky is really bleeding and dammit if I don't have gravel crammed in their with all the blood and ripped skin. I go back inside sulking like a little child and hubby didn't know what to think, he's like what happend did you slip on the ice??? and i'm like I DON'T KNOW BUT I FELL AND I'M BLEEDING and all you can do is lay there in bed and show me no sympathy what-so-ever, so I then proceeded to throw a "heather" fit and I left the house all in a huff and came to work and then once I get here I almost fall again in the damn parking lot that is an entire sheet of ice, luckily this time my balance prevailed and I stayed on two feet.
So now eveyone looks at my hand and are asking me what did you do get into a brawl or something? And i'm at that point today that I am just saying yes I did what's it to you, what's it to you..........

Pro's and Con's of our new office
I have really been struggling here at work since our office move. I can't seem to get back into my daily happy routine that I had going on in our old office. And I often feel like I am the only one here struggling but I have been talking to a few of the other girls and they are having the same problem. I can't get my day to day tasks done let alone my "big" projects that I have to do every month. For example I receive these annual/monthly audit reports and i'm supposed to go and pull our file maintenance forms and pull all of the forms out from the previous month (last month was Jan) anyways I have been trying to do this all morning and I haven't gotten anywhere's. I can't stay focused on anything and it's very frustrating. No wonder my head hurts every night when I go home. I'm dreading getting our monthly arrears letters.....so won't be fun and so not looking forward to it, but hey whose to say I will be there then anyways found out this "am" from a co-worker (only cause I asked, as nobody ever tells me anything) that they are sending out a confirmation letter to a person to fill the vacant position, lovely that's 2 weeks and counting for me........but whose to say this person will even take the position.....sigh....I hate not knowing and it's killing me, slowly and surely it is I KNOW IT!!!!!
Anyhoo I figured I would compare the two offices in kinda a pro's and con's sceneario. So here goes.....
Pro ~ I have tons and tons of counter space more than I actually need and all of my stuff is spread out and i'm up and down out of my chair 50 million times a day
Con ~ My old desk was just right, mabye a little small but I had everything handy, and I didn't have to go far to get anything
Pro ~ The air quality and heating is way better here, in fact I haven't been as stuffed up as I used to be and my headaches haven't been quite as bad here.
Pro ~ I get to use really cool gadgets like a headset and I have this pass to get into pretty much anywhere's in this building. I feel like James Bond on most days........ The only downside to this is that my photo is on this thing and it's hideous, I mean seriousily what the hell was I thinking that day, I have no makeup on and my hair couldn't possibly be any flatter. I look so grose I often will turn it around backwords so that you can't see the pic
Con ~ My filing unit that used to be directly behind me in the other office is now way down the hallway and I am finding it impossible to get down there and do my day to day filing. I never really realized how much filing I do on a day to day basis until it all started piling up on me last week and there was a shit load of filing to do and I was freaking out, I mean really freaking out. It really bugs me when I have stuff pile up and I can't get around to doing it, but I finally got it done and i'm good for another few days. Things are just so different here it's hard to adjust, even on a good day.
Con ~ The damn phone will not STOP!!! It's just a constant annoying little bugger that will not quit. It will be quit for a few minutes and then BOOM it just hits and it starts going all over again. It's an endless cycle that really annoys me. Generally the girl who sits behind me is suppsed to get the phone but she's being pulled in so many directions her self by people from her department that she is often not out front here to get the phone so that leaves poor old me to handle the phone & incoming clients. When this happens I can do nothing but answer the phone and I can't handle doing this & my day to day workload. I'm burnt out and last week I was pretty much at wits end and ready to scream at someone
Pro ~ It is always, ALWAYS busy here, never a dull quiet moment, if there is it's hardly ever and it never lasts very long. The only good thing about this is that the days goes by super duper fast but by the time I get home i'm so burnt out my body can barely function.
Con ~ in the old office I looked forward to our quiet periods of the month, that was when I could get things caught up, files disbursed, surf the net, whatever it gave me a down time. I've been so wired lately I am beginning to think that clients think I am on speed or some sort of caffine high. I talk a mile a minute, I look frazzled - hair all over, nail's chewed off, etc - I often look like I have been run over by a freight truck.
Con ~ another con is that the "big wigs" are around a lot more often. Before I would hardly see them or at least I could see them coming. Now they sneek around and come up behind me without me knowing so not cool and I am contantly trying to kiss ass as I really want to stay here and keep my job - which probably won't happen anyways so it will all be for nothing.
Pro ~ Were right dab in the middle of downtown Woodstock, I can walk to most things and makes it a little easier as I don't have to go quite so far as I used to all though it's not much of a difference.
Con ~ the parking here sucks ass. My hrs are from 8:45 - 5:00 pm. By the time I get here in the morning I might as well park 2 blocks away as there are never any parking spaces and on very cold days this really bites the big one
well i'm tired now and don't feel like writing any more. Angela has twisted my arm and were going to go out for lunch (I basically do not want to go and exercise today so hey i'm game, even thought I can't really afford it....) So yeah, it's Tuesday it's a great day today, just stay positive Heather and eveything will be ok.
HA HA HA HA HA
yeah right......as if that shit actually happens but it's worth a shot :0)
take care all ~ until we meet again i'm out
