Hello Everyone,
Quick update on me and mine. DH is still working and it didn't turn out as badly as what everyone was thinking. I just one things to stay steady for him until December 31, 2020, he can retire then, at least from full-time work. I have told him he needs to start looking for his part-time job now. He needs to get an idea of what he would like to do. His other part time job will be working for me as I have a list of daily home management tasks he will do while I work so that when I am off on the weekends we can enjoy them, since we will never really retire together as he is 10 yrs older than me.
I actually have it all written out what my expectations are for the things he will do during the week so we have evenings and weekends together to relax. lol
I have been training and learning in my new role. I have the traditional Admin tasks done...it's the PO ownership and the budget report ownership that I am having to spend most of my time on. I'm going to try a few things tomorrow on my own and see how it goes. I won't freak out if I have to learn by trial and error...at some point you have to point and shoot and see what you hit or miss.
I only have a few things left from my old role to hand off..actually just two small things and that will happen this week.
My previous manager actually had some very nice things to say about my contributions from last fiscal year and I was very surprised. I haven't asked him my rating yet but I will.
I had a 1.4 lb loss at TOPS. I didn't like it but it wasn't as bad as it could have been. That is it for me...let's see if I can remember the posts I just read through and can comment on them.
Shad: We are having issues with our tomatoes turning red as well. We read that if you see them starting to turn you can pick them and bring them indoors and they will turn. We do see this happening. I love the taste of home grown tomatoes. How did the lunch with the neighbor go?
Annie: It was good to get an update from you. I have been wondering what you are up too. I think it is ok that the job is a little boring...just rider the wave for the next 5 years. I look forward to hearing about your upcoming trip. I'm so glad you get to "get-away". Everyone needs that.
Laura: Sorry to hear about the crummy timing of the projects....I hate have hard work in the summer months.....I think the work should be lighter in the summer months! When are you planning your foot surgery? My DH had a issue over the weekend with his foot. He stepped and heard a "pop" and they it hurt to walk on it. We went to ER yesterday as it was still bothering him, they determined it was arthritis and told him RICE, and see a foot doctor. They gave us a couple of names. I need to call them this week.
Sorry to hear that things with your BF are a little strained at this time and that your friend isn't able to do a get-a-way with you due to the new job. It would do you good to get away. Have you thought about a retreat of some kind?
Happy: I am so sorry about your cousin's passing. It sounds that he had a lot of physical pain and suffering.
I believe that you will be ok with your decision to stay with Bingo as it doesn't seem to take all the time like the thrift shop did.
Hello to Ceejay!
It's time for me to head to bed...I can't keep my eyes open any longer. 5:00 a.m comes early and that is when I get up to get the 30 min of cardio in. See you all later..hopefully tomorrow
