Nothin' Much
....but a little good news.
I had a call from my Asst Mgr asking if I'd work a day shift Tuesday. Sure, just let me rearrange an appointment and I can do that. Well, how about an overnight shift Thursday morning into Friday morning - admissions, discharges, run a meeting or two?? Not a problem. Show me the money. Still, there go the plans for the my week off, straight out the window.
Yesterday once I was up I headed over for dinner and the evening with Lynda. Things are on the upswing again - who knew?? (Discretion prevents me from saying how well things are going but just let me say 'Hot Damn!') I spent a couple of hours this morning at the house doing some chores Lynda wanted done and then filled the car with more of my possessions to bring over here to the townhouse. I was hoping to finish that up this week. We shall see.
Tonight I chair at my home group and I've asked Audrey to speak. I've mentioned her before - she attained 50 years sobriety back in July and has been holding off getting her medallion until some of her family can be here. I jokingly refer to her as my girlfriend; she's 88 now so I guess that would be a December / September romance. Gotta love her - she's still full of love for life and makes the most of it. I get to pick her up at home and escort her back again.
More problems today with the camera and computer refusing to talk to one another. As I was emailing Kel earlier I noticed one of the pictures of mine that I'd mentioned to her eons ago as one I'd have submitted for her 'Art Attack' challenge. Hmmm .... snap a picture, try to download it..... no go. Futz about with some diagnostics ... still nothing. One day, Kel; one day!!!!
Time to get on with the balance of the day.

Thanks for jumping in when the troll came to visit me, Norm. I appreciate your intentions. :)
I think you just pointed out one of the reasons I don't want to go back to work. My old boss called yesterday and offered me my old job back. It would be just 2 days per week (which is what I wanted) and would give us a little extra money. But the thing holding me back from saying yes is that I'll start out at 2 days per week and the next thing you know they'll be heaping more hours on me, needing me to fill in here, there, and everywhere (which is what happened to me last time).
I really value my time off, but the extra money was nice too. So, I took the extra hours and ended up practically crippled with back pain.
I think I might have talked myself out of taking the job. LOL!
Glad you were able to process that and come to the sane conclusion. LOL.
I don't mind helping at work when I can but my Mgr asked at the end of the day yesterday if I was also available today. Thankfully I had an appointment and had a valid reason to say no. I didn't realize just how tired I was until I was driving home. That's why I didn't post last night (and maybe why I reacted to the 'troll' as I did.) Arrgg - not the day for politicking. Still making me mad.
