Ok, so I quit my job today! I have been watching the writting on the wall and I was near the end of my road there. I just can not sit around and watch that company do things that are not only unprofessional but just wrong. I know most people will think that I am a complete dumb ass but I had a very good friend tell me "everyone is born with two brains (not just the men) it is what is known as your "gutt feelings" and what the brain misses the gut catches". My gut said it was time to go before I was handed my hat! SOOOOO! I left!
If you are reading this and need a good Coordinator with morals and good orginizational skills please let me know! :)
Happy Friday!!!
Wednesday
Well, there has been a profound change in our company as of yesterday afternoon. The fired someone that has been employed here for 15 years or more and his wife, also employed here, walked with him. This/these people have been difficult to deal with at times. That difficulty would vary depending on who you were or who you worked directly under. My point is this, it is not that they did or did not deserve to be here it is that the lack of loyalty between employer and employee. That person did something that is just unacceptable but, he was allowed to get away with unprofessional and unacceptable behavior for years and suddenly he crossed the line? I am really not sure how to take the whole situation........I do know that I did not get an especially warm and fuzzy feeling when I clocked in this morning.
I have been working since I was 16 years old and I am a LONG way from 16 now but, what is in store for not only me but the generations to follow? The big corporations are closing, cutting back and moving to some foreign countries. I can draw about 1/3 of my pay if I retire at the right age......72!! I can't afford to live on that at that age. I am thinking maybe I should seek employment with those companies that like to employee the elderly and get comfortable there. It is surely not in a company I am currently in that will allow someone the freedom to abuse everyone in their path and then one day say "that is unacceptable, here's your hat" and shown to the door with a box of personal belongings. I will keep my eyes and ears open to the possibilities of other employment and hope for the best.
Until then.......... I will keep doing what I do until I don't do it here anymore!!
HAVE A GREAT DAY!!

Monday
It is the day before Valentine's Day and I have not got a clue what to do tomorrow. My domestic partner has asked me what I want to do and it has been so long since we have done anything for this day I am not sure what to do.......HMMM! It will be hell to get a table for dinner anywhere even in this one horse town. Even the rednecks take their honey to dinner! I think that I would rather stay home, have some wine and dinner.....I know BORING!! I guess I will worry about that tomorrow.
I think I have been set up with this whole Valentine's thing anyway. The better half asked me what I wanted to do leaving him blameless when we do nothing! At that point he will say "well, it was your decision to stay home" or something on that line. Oh what to do.....!!!

Friday
It is Friday and it is taking all my strength to stay here until 4:30 today. I have no work to do and I am bored to tears! What better way to kill the next hour but blogging!!?
I have to finish some wedding items this weekend so that it is done and I can just wait for the date and it will be over. Oh it is not my wedding.....I have had my share of the wedding scene. This is my daughter's wedding of which she is little help with. She did her job, she got engaged! The worse part is that I have to call the ex to get his share of the expenses and I truly hate to talk to him. He is a nice enough guy he just irritates the piss out of me!! The sacrifices I have to make for my children! :)

New Year
I can not believe how bad I suck at this bloggin thing! I get on my blog nearly everyday and check in on my friends, onefootoff and whatsinsidejoe and I never blog my on site! LAZY!!
Here it is a new year with new hope and promises ahead! I am planning the wedding of my first born and can i just say DAMN!!!! what a nightmare.......I have my daughter with her wants and worse than that...her future in-laws with their input!! There is a perfectly good reason that eloping became so popular! It sure makes things easier! It will all come together, I am sure of it and it will be a beautiful ceremony and we will all laugh about this after it's over.
I have the new grandbaby Ethan who has stolen my heart and you can see why with the photo i have put up to share. how coul you not love that face? I thought there was not a stronger love than that I have for my children until I met this little person! He is such a great baby and what a personality he has!
SO, I guess I just need to make a better effort to post on my blog more often!
.....until then........
Saturday
Merry Christmas
Well, the year has flown by again. Here I am on Christmas Eve feeling truly blessed to have my family and friends. I really have the life a lot of people can only dream of.
I have been in a relationship for 13 1/2 years. This is our 14th Christmas together. We have raised and/or had a hand in raising five children. They did not turn out exactly as we had hoped but, I truly believe there are thing that are instilled in us that we do not control. Our children are healthy, seem to be happy and live the lives they have chosen for themselves. We have four grand-children between us and the fifth is on the way. We do not see three (soon to be four) hardly ever but we are fortunate to have one that lives only a mile away and we see him nearly every day.
To everyone that happens across my blog MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Today is my daughters 21st birthday and I am not real sure how I feel about that. I can not beleive she is that old or mayby I can't believe that i am that old. She is the mother of my most beautiful grandson Ethan but, she is still my little girl!! She has been the best thing I have ever done in my life and has given me the best 21 years of my life!! I hope her son gives her as much joy and happiness that she has given me!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY GIRL!!
