Geez, ROCKER, can you be any more cryptic? I hope it's not bad news.
|
Dammit, ROCKER! You know that pi$$es me off! TELL US NOW!!!
I hope all is well! Glad you had a grrrreat workout! |
TICK, TOCK, TICK, TOCK.
TIME IS UP ROCKER!!! :mad: |
You all have mail.
|
Afternoon all...
(((((((((((((ROCKER))))))))))) I read your e-mail and I sending you a big hug. I am sorry you are going through all this. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I can only imagine what you must be going through right now. Well, tonight I have my first WI at JC. I am anxious to see how much I've lost. I've been following the menu, with the exception of Saturday night and Sunday's dinner, so it shouldn't be too bad. The food has been alright. Nothing I am too crazy over, but it's still good. I hope I get a different menu tonight. I would like to try the different foods. That way I don't get bored too easily. Everything else is good here. A little busy here, but it's good. Hope you all are having a good day. What a morning this was. I can only imagine what it must be like during a hurricane. The winds were brutal this morning at the train station and the rain just topped it off. WOW! At least now, it's stopped raining. Okay, well, Hello to all. Have a good rest of the day. |
Good luck at WI tonight! I hope it's a good one!! Remind me, are you in the city now? You'll have to join me and Spillie for lunch sometime, if it's convenient. And I thought the same thing about a hurricane. The signs at the school were blowing like you see on the broadcasts they do before a hurricane hits, and the winds were just crazy! Imagine winds twice that strength. Yikes!!

Hi TWIDDLE: Thanks for the good luck wishes. I'll let you guys know how I did tomorrow. I finally figured out how to do the signature on here, let's hope I can figure it out to change it. Ha-ha. I am so slow sometimes. Yes, I am down in Center City now. I work at KPMG at 16th and Market. I would love to do lunch with you guys sometime. That would be great. I'd like that. We should discuss it when SPILLIE gets back from her trip. :)
Can I ask you guys for advise? Okay... I am just being completely honest here. I like my new job here, but it's not what I want to be doing. My old job back at Sprint is no longer there, as they don't have Branch Admins anymore. I've been keeping in touch with my old boss there and they might create a new position as an Office Manager. I told him I'd be interested in that, if it came up. I am not sure how much money they would offer, but I know it wouldn't match what I am doing now. It would be less, I am sure. I would be much happier going back to Sprint, even if it's less money. The problem is conviencing my parents it's the right move. I know, I am almost 29 and I should make my own decisions, but I know they won't let me hear the end of it if I went back. Any suggestions in how I can deal with them? The job hasn't been offered yet, and who's to say that they will offer it to me. It's still in the planning stages. I guess I am already getting myself all worked up about, hoping it will happen. To say not to get my hopes up, well, they already are. I want to get out of here so bad. I am just not happy. The job is better than what I had before, but it's just not what I want to be doing. You know what I mean? Money can't always buy happiness... they could be paying me a million bucks and I still wouldn't be happy. If I go back to Sprint, I know I'd be making less, but I'd be much happier. Sorry for the rambling. Just had to get my thoughts down. Any advise in how to deal with my parents would be appreciated it. I know other people won't let me hear the end of it either- my brother, too. HA! Funny thing is, I am listening to my XM Radio online right now and the group that is on is called, "THE PRUSUIT OF HAPPINESS" and the song is called, "I'M AN ADULT NOW." How fitting!! Anyway... thanks for hearing me out. Any advise would be appreciated. Talk to you later! |
DUTCHIE: Sorry this is late, but good luck at weigh-in! I hope you had a good first week! Let us know how you do.
Now, about your parents...my advice to you would be to let them know how you really feel. Even if it's through a letter...it doesn't matter. As long as you let them know how you are feeling about the job situation and let them know that their opinion means so much to you...and that you are afraid of what they'll think. Express your unhappiness at your current job--maybe they don't really know and understand how unhappy you are. I had an issue with my parents and I was scared to death to talk to them about it. I finally worked up the courage to write them a letter and let them know my thoughts/feelings and to my surprise they were very supportive...it surprised the heck out of me, and I felt so relieved. I didn't think they'd be on my side, but they were. All they want is to see me happy. And I bet all your parents want is to see you happy too. They'll realize you're an adult and you will make the appropriate decisions. But you have to do what is best for YOU. It's your life...and you have to do what makes you happy! Good luck, and if you ever need to talk give me a call! I'm here for you!! When SPILLIE gets back we all need to plan dinner one night! ROCKER: Hugs girl!! I hope your day is better. Let me know if you need anything at all!! |
Good morning chicklets!!
DUTCHIE - How did WI go last night? I second what VIVA said about your parents. I was just going to say don't tell them, but I think her advice was much better. And we'll definitely do lunch when Spillie gets back. VIVA - Guess what I'm having for lunch today? :D ROCKER - Hope you got home at a decent hour last night, and got some rest. Had WI this morning. I lost a whopping 3 pounds! Woo hoo!! It's been 1 pound all week (I weigh every day, can't help it), so I was shocked when I saw the number. I'm now below what I was at Thanksgiving, so no holiday weight for me! Gotta keep it up. We're supposed to go skiing on Saturday...gotta keep my eye on the website and see if they're making snow. They were actually closed yesterday because of the rain and warm temps, so we'll see. I hope we can go. Not much else going on here. Hope you're all doing well! I'll check back in later. |
I forgot...check out this website, it's quite amusing:
http://www.blogthings.com/wherefrom.html I actually chuckled quite a few times... |
Congrats on the loss, TWIDDLE! Yay for you. 3 lbs. is awesome! Keep up the fabulous work! I think I need to see a good weigh-in next week :) We're going to the gym on Friday...maybe that'll help? :o
Morning ROCKER! Hope you are having a better day! DUTCHIE: How'd your first WI go? :?: |
Morning Chickies! My afternoon mtg. yesterday lasted for almost 3 long, boring hours and til it was over I thought my head would explode! On my way out I ran into one of the board members from the meeting that was to be held last night at my building. I asked how long he thought it would last....as it turns out the cancelled it and didn't bother to tell me :mad: . Even with my bad headache I told them about it! I was able to leave at 7:45 then....didn't think I'd be able to drive home b/c of my headache but I made it. I still have one today but it's not as bad.
Was able to talk to granny last night and for everything she's been thru, she sounded pretty good--at least I think so. I sent her a card yesterday as well. DUTCHIE: how'd WI go last night? Can't wait to hear! I agree w/VIVA & TWIDDLE with regards to your parents. A similar thing happened with me like VIVA's situation and I too was surprised at how supportive they were. I know how you feel though....I still sometimes feel like I need their approval on some things before I do it (even though I know I don't). TWIDDLE: WTG woman on your 3# loss! :carrot: Doin' the happy TWIDDLE dance! :carrot: VIVA: sorry I didn't get back to you yesterday. I could barely make it through my appts. let alone look at a computer screen. Guess that's it for now....I meet with that jackazz catrerer form yesterday this afternoon. ROCKER's standing her ground too! Have a good one....TTYL! |
Good luck with the caterer, ROCKER. WTF is up with them cancelling the mtg and not telling you???? That's bullsh*t.
Hey, did you guys notice we don't have our siggies? I went to look to see if I needed to change my guy (since I've been up and down so much lately, it might be right), and it's not there??? |

I'm still waiting on DUTCHIE...come out, come out, where ever you are! TWID: Which Panini are you having for lunch? I'm having the Chicken, Spinach and Mushroom. Yummmmmy. |
I'm having the same one. Haven't had this kind yet, but I'm sooper-dooper excited for it.
Where's DUTCHIE???????? |
