MY LIVING WILL

Last night, my friend and I were sitting in the living room
and I said to her, 'I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.'

She got up, unplugged the Computer, and threw out my CocaCola. She's such a bitch.....

Tell All

What a week! I started out with losing my debit card. It was on the floor in my bedroom just under the bed's foot board. It was lost for over a week! It really put a dent into my web shopping This week I get into a car accident which I could have totally prevented if I would have looked in my side rearview mirror when I pulled out into the lane and made a left turn in front of this lady. She was really cool about it - totally nice about her poor little toyota. My Sexy Lexy now looks like a junk yard car.
Then I get to work late and there are 7 people scheduled to be hired that morning. I had to go straight into that without skipping a beat. ok, no problem. 1 quit as soon as he walked out the door because he was jeolous that he did not get the other position that were offered to the others in that group. Looser! He was less than entry level! Then I find out another one of the guys is on Huber - who did the background check here. I still have not solved that mystery, will need to do that first thing Monday.
The next day. Surprise drug test! Even I wasn't told about it. Not that I have anything to lose, but I could have been prepared to replace all the people that we lost. Anyway, I've had a migraine all week long. Each day, it was light pain until I got home from work and then I it hit in full and I just layed there in pain until the meds kicked in.

Breathe Deeply

I've been fighting pms last week and this week too. Why this has to last 3-4 weeks and then I finally get the one week of running to the bathroom to change out these giant diapers. Uhg. Do we ever get a break?? I wish I were a gay man sometimes. Might as well be. Geez, I wonder why there aren't more gay men scrapbooking? Other than Tim Holtz, I don't know of any other. Maybe I should google that. I love Tim Holtz.

Work has been incredibly frustrating. The president of the company is visiting today and tomorrow. He's a really nice guy, trying so hard to be productive and make informed decisions when most people have their own agenda going on. I just feel sorry for the guy. He can't get a straight answer. But he is very personable and is always positive. Then again he can chop heads off and I've seen him do it.

He just handed out 3% increases to all the employees and I hope that will hold down the wolf gangs out there. Being in HR can be a real pain in the arg. There is harassment going on and I should just report it directly to the Pres. but how can I go over my boss's head without making a hullabaloo. The employees out there need to stand up for themselves. I hope no one out there would let their supervisors, or managers yell at them for any reason at all. Everyone deserves respect. The incidents should be submitted in writing and with no fear of retaliation.

I just need to take a deep breath and be patient. With my pms and work and bills and so on, and so on. I should count my blessings each day and do one of the ten things per day (share my good fortune with others). Thanks for visiting with me. You make my day.

Devils Lake

We went hiking at Devils Lake today and guess what? I forgot my camera! I really wanted to take some pictures today, but I went hiking because it was better than sitting at home worrying to death about my daughter. Her Dad teaches her all these crazy things and she is so into it all. She did not stop for one moment the whole 4 hours that we hiked. I took the easy trails and and met them at some designated fork and they were jumping rocks as if jumping puddles. They did straight up climbs and straight down! Up is ok, because you can always look for the next grip, but down? you need to feel your way. No ropes.

I must admit that Devils Lake is the best place to do climb. It was beautiful. I was sweating like a .... ahhh. Well anyway, after the trails and climbing we went down to the beach and while DD was playing in the water and getting tanner than she already is. DH and I laid in the shade to rest. I do wish I would have brought my camera.
