This is me...

Ranting, and writings and thoughts, and ideas, and the controlled randomness that is me...

Worst Daughter Ever

TODAY would have been my dad's 57th birthday. Not tomorrow, as I have thought for years... We will go get a cake, and toast to my Dad...TONIGHT, not tomorrow...

Shame on me...:(. Going to have to fix EVERYWHERE I put it, Ancestry is done, at work on Monday I will fix the PowerPoint, and the cards, and my other blog... Oh geeze!

He would give me a ration of shit about it too! LOL!

T.G.I.F.

Busy day today. Came in late, me and My Grrrl went grocery shopping this morning, that was nice. Then to breakfast, that was nice too, ate too much!

Cara still wants to go to her Dad's. Not going to stand in her way anymore. All things happen as they are supposed to.

Rob is having a friend spend the night tonight, and then tomorrow I will take his friend home, we will go to Nana's and then to Cara's therapy, and back home, so Rob can go with his Big Brother. Cara might be gone tomorrow night ;). Then on Sunday, Robert is going to go hiking with my sister and her man, and I am going to lunch with my boss and three new providers. I am nervous, because I feel that I lack some "social graces" but I am excite because I don't think that this will be much of a formal situation! That is the idea, isn't? An informal get together. I am honored that my boss considers me her right hand, that when she is not there, I am her stand in in matters with the providers... I WANT THAT PROMOTION! Is there a "right hand" promotion!? LOL

That is all for now, back to it I must get!

Oh, on a funny note, last night Cara needed to know the name of a Weird Al song, and I stood outside the bathroom door (she was IN the bathroom) and we sang the song through the door, and figured it out! That is funny, and I never want to forget moments like that!

I got my flu shot today. Arm doesn't hurt as bad as it could, so yay for that!

Cara still wants to go live with her dad. I know that I should not take it personally, but I do. She told me last night 'if you don't want me to go, tell me" I didn't tell her, I should have... Then, My Grrrl told me that Cara had given me the chance. I missed it. We argued, because I am hurt and knew I blew it. I went in and told Cara that I don't want her to go, but if she needs to, I support her. I think that she heard me, and feels like My Grrrl had to tell me to go tell her...Ugh. I don't want her to go, I am afraid of many things, one, that she will be hurt by her father like everyone else, second, that he won't pay to send her back this summer, I will pay of it I have to. Third, that she will like it better there and not want to come back at all. Also, and less on the emotional worries, that he will take forever to get her into school, like he did with Marie... Marie came back from it, Cara might not, she is challenged in school as it is. She is doing so good this year, and I don't want her to back slide and I should have told her more. I have taken her for granted. She has not been the squeaky wheel, alas... All I can do is learn from it and do better by them all.

We, as in me and My Grrrl are staying downstairs more, but last night, everyone had finished their hours early and we were both so tired, that we went up stairs early... Not tonight, even though I am so tired I could crash right here right now!

This weekend will be no rest either. Cleaning the shed, setting up for Halloween, going to the library, Nana's and Cara's therapy. One night, Robert is having a friend spend the night, Saturday afternoon, he will be going with Jerry, his big. Sunday is hiking with my sister and Her Man. And I, I have a possible lunch thing for work with the new providers and My Boss... That might be fun, especially since My Boss has GREAT taste, and the tab would be picked up by the hospital!

Lots of patient surveys today, and I am getting to a finishing point with a project! Just the last bit is the hardest for me, and the kids are no help! LOL Might have to ask My Grrl for assistance!

Well, back to it I must get!

So, Gloria heard back from the HR guy about my job, won't be hard, but for finding the form. Today is bosses day or at least one of the bosses in admin got something to that affect, so... I guess I better whip something up for Gloria! Since she is THE BEST boss ever!

My cold has taken a new form, it is in my chest more now... It is not as bad as it was, so yeah for that!

I am tired right now, but I am pretty sure that is because I had a HEAVY lunch...

Still working on mastering a granny square. At this point, I would say that I am acquainted with the granny square, I would like to be on a first name basis with the granny square soon!

Read up on Paganism and Wiccanism (is that the right phrase?) today. I wanted to know what it is that I think that it means to say I am Pagan. I think that I like it. I like that it is not very uniform. What I took away from my reading is that it is what you feel it is. Honoring and treating with kindness, nature...

I think that it is time to start the next Harry Potter book. I have been listening to Pandora all morning, but at this point, I can't seem to get into anything I hear, not only that, but I want to change each song that comes on... So, here we go...Back to work, a la Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets...

:)

Monday, October 17th, the afternoon...

No word about my possible promotion yet. Not a bad sign the guy Gloria had to email is terrible about emailing back.

Busy today, lots of interviews, and Kronos, and stuff...
Think that I learned how to make a granny square, a basic one that is. The yarn I brought is too thick, and the needle is to fat, so I will get better supplies tonight and get back to it.

Happiness Project update... Doing good on "slow down, read everything twice". Not doing so good with "make healthier choices" lost the struggle with the desire to get a soda... Oh well, I will keep trying!

Well, this is not the day's blog, but I can't post this on Facebook... I just updated my resume and online application and submitted it. My boss is trying to get me re-classified into a higher job. I spent the weekend thinking that I was going to be able to re classed into an Admin Assistant. And while I do everything in that job description, I do not work for an Administrator, and there you go! The base pay on that one is TWICE what I make, and while I would LOVE to make that much money, I do not work for an Admin, so there you are! Maybe someday. For now, this job that Gloria is trying to get me re-classified into makes at the least 0.86 more an hour, maybe more, and while that does not sound like much, it is more, and I will take what I can get!

That is all for now!
