The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 24

Not open for further replies.
Well today was my yearly exam. I absolutely hate those things. On top of that, I had to schedule my mammogram which is Friday. Yuck! My arm is throbing because I also got a tetanus shot because it has been so long since I had one and with as much time as I spend outside, the doctor thought I should. At least I get it all out of the way for awhile!
 
Crazy, busy, stressful, and more. Several times last week I called my former boss (he was acting because my new boss was on his honeymoon) and told him "I give up! I don't need this!" So much needs to be fixed and it is so hard to decide where in the world to even start!

Aren't you sorry you asked?!

nope because I wanted to know!!

I am sorry it's so stressful and crazy. I can see why your Pepsi intake has increased....I drank 1 and 1/2 little bottles today...I think totally stress related.
 
Tia- You and your family are in my thoughts.

Theresa- Congratulations:cool1: :banana: :dance3: :cheer2:

Robyn- Glad to hear the test went well. I hope they can figure what is causing Molly's problems.

Vicki- Sorry to here that work is very stressful. Take lots of deep breaths and take each event at a time. It will get better.:wizard: :hug: :grouphug:

To everyone else, sending :wizard: :wizard:, prayers and :hug: :grouphug: to all of you.
 
To add to my stress, the display went out on my laptop so I can only used it docked (with a monitor). That has cut into my DIS/DDA time which is my outlet. I have a ticket in for one of my staff to take care of it for me. Hopefully, I won't be without it long.
 

When is your interview Karen?(sorry short memory here lol)


congratulations theresa for getting your house. also congrats to janet for making your first house payments. i will be celebrating with you when the interview goes well and they say you have the job. (finger crossed smilies inserted here)

CONGRATULATIONS THERESA! :yay:

Every bit of laundry is done, my stuff is out to be put in suitcases tomorrow (Kyle's vacation started today, lucky dog!), and we're off to take the dog for a walk before we leave her at my parents' house for 12 days! :sad1:

I'll try to check in tomorrow, depending on how busy it turns out.

Have a wonderful evening!
 
In case I miss you Jennifer, have a wonderful time!


Is it Oct. yettttttttttttt! :rotfl: This is killing me having to wait a year to go back(no I am not counting DLP, it's not the same ;) ).

Usually I do my replies first, but I just have to get this out. Amanda's condition has really deteriorated today and DH asked me to take her tomorrow to have her euthanized.:sad1: I will have Brother with me the whole day tomorrow, and it is NOT fair to ask me to do that. We are now fighting about it, because I think he should take her tomorrow afternoon, even if it means DS will have to go along. DS wants to have her cremated remains, and we can't seem to decide about that, either.

Momboss and I are at HUGE odds about the upcoming schedule. The agreement in March was that I would NOT get a raise, but I would now have every Wednesday morning off. If the kids are out of school and I have to work on a morning I should have off then they owe me that morning back during another week. She now says the Wednesdays were ONLY for the school year (how generous, since they just started the Wednesdays off LAST MONTH) so I have to work every Wed. morning over the summer that the kids are not in camp. She wasn't even willing to give me 2 extra mornings earlier in May to make up for May 23 & 30 which I will have to work. The kids are only going to camp for 3 weeks. I am assuming they will still "trade" the Mondays with me because those are not part of my schedule OR my payroll. So just like that I am back to 42.5 hours instead of 38.5, and no raise.:mad: She also said they want my last day to be August 10.:scared1: She wants me to finish with the kids before I leave for WDW. In our discussion I was promised my week of vacation would be PAID, but now I am wondering if she will say it won't be paid because the job ends BEFORE my vacation starts. I will have 35 hours of accrued comp time if I don't use any before then, and I will have 2.5 personal days so that will just about cover my vacation, but it would be NICE to have my week of paid vacation, too. Since that WAS the agreement.:headache: Dadboss is really the one I deal with for payroll and comp time and that sort of thing, so I'm interested to hear what he has to say about it. I fail to see how giving me a couple of extra Wednesdays off during April & May offsets NOT giving me a raise when the kids are going to be home nearly the entire summer!:mad: They have never been home the whole summer before!

So my entire day has gone to hell in a handbasket. I don't know whether to be sad about the cat or furious about my job. The agency e-mailed me 3 TOTALLY inappropriate jobs today, all part time, all with lower salaries than what I make right now, 2 of them nowhere near our house. How am I supposed to make THAT work? Fewer hours, lower salary, sure! Sign me up! And at night I can sell crack or work a street corner to supplement my income. Sorry. Not a good night for me. :sad2:

I am putting my official notice in.

I will not be on this weekend.....

:banana: :banana: :banana: WE GOT THE HOUSE!!!:banana: :banana: :banana:

Theresa, I am truly, truly happy for you!!:goodvibes
