stephanie just told me that she heard that Art the Greeter at the BC is retiring next month.:sad1::sad1:

I sure will miss going to see him. We specifically had plans to stop to see him in Dec. Now we won't get to see him:sad1:
Bummer. We missed him in August when he was out for his eye surgery. Best wishes to him and his family. What a sweet man!

Glynis - that is WONDERFUL news!!! :yay:
 
So for those of you on Facebook might have seen my status yesterday of "frustrated with assumptions. "

I had spent the day (more so than any other days) dealing with peoples assumptions; including if your married you are happy, you can do such and such because you aren't working right now:headache:I also had my own assumptions come up, even though I know they aren't right.

Plus, because I am sick I have less tolerance with do do heads. :lmao:I am surprised I didn't hurt anybody.

I had a couple of things happen that made me smile.

1. The scheduling of the phone interview, less than 24 hours after I sent in the resume. :thumbsup2Do any of you have Maui Wowi's near you?? The job is corporate office manager for them so I would love to have any stories, if there are any.

2. We ordered the first round of senior pics for friends..and I ordered a couple other prints...just because they made me smile. All told it cost me $10 for 50+ prints. :cool1:

3. This one just made me so proud of my daughter: we were discussing her senior trip...and she said if we can't afford Disney, we could go to Branson instead mom. :lovestruc
 
My wonderful friends! I am in such a state right now! My heart is pounding and I'm literally sobbing..... for joy!!!

The oncologist gave us such good news! The cancer in the prostate area is so tiny that one shot every 4 months will take care of it. Dad has the first shot scheduled for Monday morning. My brother will go with him and stay with him until we see if there are going to be any negative side effects that we need to deal with.

As for the rib, the oncologist didn't see any cancer at all. He did see a scar from a cracked rib my dad got about 4 years ago when he fell out of a tree. He did say that it's possible that there's some cancer in the scar, and if there is, the shot will also take care of that. But he thinks it's most likely arthritis that the PCP mistook for cancer.

I can't even begin to describe how I'm feeling right now! I know you will all celebrate with me, and I feel so blessed to have you all to help hold my hand through this whole thing. I have felt your love and your good thoughts coming my way, and I thank you with all my heart!

I'm off to wake the baby up from his nap and drive to my sister's house to go to lunch to celebrate! I'm too excited and happy to sit still anymore!

That is fabulous news. I'm so happy for your Dad and your family. Celebrate and live life to the fullest.
 
Theresa I'm sorry that you're in a funk. I does sound like a few things are going your way. I know that you've been struggling financially since giving up your job and I'm sure that Cassidy will understand if you need to put off her trip until circumstances change. I've assumed that you have been able to get unemployment and hope that you can continue to collect until you find a new job :hug: Of course we all know about assumptions, they just make an a s s out of you and me :rotfl:
 
Glynis - prayers answered!

nope, no unemployment here because I willingly left my job. :rolleyes1

We just had a discussion at work about this and we all thought that there was a waiting period if you willfully left a job, but that you could collect unemployment. I thought it was 3 weeks :confused3 Wow, I had no idea.
 
Terry,
I am so sad to hear we won't get to see Art again before he retires. His last day is scheduled for 10/17. He is a truely nice man & the tops as far as Disney CM's go. He will be missed but I sure hope he enjoys his retirement.

Glynis,
I was so happy to read anout your father. Wonderful news!

depends on the state.
 
so last night I went to bed like I always do. Late, about 1:30am even though I had napped at least once for an hour earlier. I turned on the alarm and put my ear plugs in and my eye mask on.

The eye mask is because Hal comes back into the bedroom and turns on the light. The ear plugs are because of the noise he makes and because he snores loud enough to wake the dead!!!

I heard my alarm this morning but kept hitting the snooze button. Well apparently, I kept hitting it and did not realize that after an hour, it does not work any more. At 10 I looked up and went into a panic because I was supposed to have been at work by 9!!!!!!

I quickly called work and my co-worker said to quickly call Stephanie cause she was on her way over to my house!!!:eek:

She is highly allergic to cats, :cat::cat::cat: so I am wondering how she was going to get in. She said she had it all planned out. She was going to get a rock and break a window and push past the cats and then slap me awake. If someone else was in the house, she was not sure how she was gonna handle that. If I was dead, that sure was gonna put a damper on the December trip :eek::sad2::lmao:

I told her to remember that we had gotten trip insurance!!! :lmao::rotfl::lmao:

Needless to say this morning was a little exciting. I really must have needed the sleep having done that.

She is such a fantastic friend that she was willing to risk life to make sure I was okay. :love::love:
 
Glynis, YAY!!!!! I am so happy to hear the wonderful news!

Theresa, :hug: and :wizard:! I wish there were something I could do for you. I'm wishing for fewer do do heads an more smiles in your very near future.

Wow! What a morning for you! And what a great friend you have (although we already knew that!). I'm glad you got the sleep you obviously needed!
 
Glynis,,,I am so happy for you and your Dad!!!:goodvibes
