Hello My Friends
Hope all had a great weekend as mine was some what good. I see I have been slacking off here lately as I have been so busy with work and the project which is about halfway completed by the way. Recapping what’s been happening up until now. Last week my boss and I had it out again. As I may have mentioned I was keeping my distance from her and when I answered a email the she sent me and I basically had a statement in there about CYA she took it offensively. Next thing I know I’m called in her office to discuss what was said. She started off by saying that she was very hurt in what I said about CYA and I told here it was a quote from her boss that I used as she told me to CYA. Then she went on to say that she that she and I have been working together for a very long time and she felt there was some tension between us here lately. At that point when she said that I opened Pandora’s box then. I proceeded to tell her that I didn’t appreciate her and not in so many words calling me a liar and in my face at that. It wasn’t once you did it but twice you did it and I didn’t care to be in the same room with someone who was going to sit there and call me that. Then when I was finished she made the statement that I’m sorry that you felt that way and if it came off as such I apologize for that. However being the better man I did except her apology but working in the business I’m in now for 20 years I’ll work with this person but don’t have to be friends or like this person. To be honest she’s not a bad person but lately she’s been under a lot of pressure at work as we all have. Our structure is changing and it’s just not a good time for any of us. Still it didn’t excuse the fact that she called me a liar and like Mother Love would say, Forgive but don’t forget. So I’m keeping that enemy close so I can keep and eye on her for sure.
Ended up buying a new monitor as the old one just played out on me for sure. I couldn’t edit the pics for my project with a purple screen. So I went out and bought a nineteen inch flat panel from Best Buy for $159.00. $171.59 with tax and there was no mail in rebates. YEAH! It was a steal for sure as a nineteen inch would usually run well in the two hundred range and offer a mail in rebate to bring it down. It’s Huge too my friend. It’s taking some time to get use to as well. We have 17 inch CRT monitors at work and coming home to this 19 inch well it’s a change. For one it’s so bright and then there is the size. Large but not taking up a lot of space, I for sure like that. It’s sure made my project working roll a lot smoother plus as I mentioned I’m about halfway finished.
I got and email Friday from the committee I formed to vote on who would make the cover of the project so that really kicked me in to high gear as I really couldn’t place models in the layout until I had that info. So I notified the cover model and he was oh too happy. I have to say the committee did a good job. Me making the choice may have seemed biased to some so that was the reason for forming the committee so that wouldn’t happen.
Saturday went out to my Ex’s to give his second son his Birthday gift as his Birthday was on the eight of this month. His dad wasn’t giving him a party and poor thing always ends up going back to school on his special day. So I picked up a cake and a gameboy game for him. He was a happy little eleven year old. However he’s not so little anymore. As a matter of fact they’re all growing so that I couldn’t believe how tall they were getting. I didn’t stay for a long period of time as I needed to get back home to work on the project some more. Layout all done and I like the flow of it. Will do a test run on folks shortly and get their opinion. Sunday lounged around the house read the Sunday paper and then got up to work on more of the project.
Monday went to work as it was catch up day. No new intakes as I’ve been getting them at will now a days. Have meeting Wednesday to go over the changes the system is going through and where we stand in the program as well. I have to say I have a good job but lately it’s been a little challenging but then again if we’re not up for the challenge then what the point of moving forward. Me I’m choosing to move forward that’s for sure. Will was in Utah this weekend so my plans to see him didn’t happen. Will try to call him today as well. Thought we had a leak in the laundry room yesterday as water was on the floor after doing laundry that morning. However come to find out that the drain was clogged so I got some stuff to unclog it and it seems to be working. I ran the machine twice and there is no water on the floor but I’m going to change the hoses anyway as I don’t want to come home and the house is flooded from the water constantly running. Plus the hoses are over ten years old and they’re only nine bucks so this weekend’s project will be to replace those for sure. It is and eye opener for sure. Well that’s about it for now I’ll try to stay on top of this but last week was just one of those weeks where I felt like shit and didn’t want to do shit either. Back on track now as well so until fingers meet keys all have a good one and looking forward to chatting with you all here soon. Hugs my friend.
