I am happy, and now ready, to announce to the world that I’M PREGNANT!!

We past the first trimester PHEW! So now I’m ready to share the excitement

And that’s all I have to say for now… but many more posts to follow!

Do you ever think that at any time you could be fired? I mean, one day you’re all happy and cozy in your nice little job and then *boom* “You’re Fired!” and then you have to clean out your desk with all your personal belongings, or rush out and risk losing everything… and No, that didn’t happen to me, Thank God! I’m way too good at my job for that to happen *shifty eyes*(HAHAHA!). But it has happened a lot recently at my work and today I was left to clean up the pieces! I’m number 2 when it comes to internal happenings (if you watch The Office you will get that saying of number 2 even more…) and of course… OF COURSE… something BIG always happens when my boss is out and I have to try to figure out what to do. I guess she’s out kind of a lot though… but anyway… Today was draining… emotionally and physically…

I get pulled into the office managers office today and i’m like UH OH! But of course, not about me, I told you, I’m good *winkwink* so he said, I just let KA go, what else do I need to do? R usually handles the rest from here. Oh man, I can’t even get ahold of R or her boss or any other manager I know of because they’re all in a regional meeting. I’ll figure something out. so i’m looking through her desk figuring there has to be some sort of “procedures book” but I can’t find anything. and I know a little because i’ve helped out before but never had to deal with the full situation by myself. So then the office manager comes up to me again, I just let JR go too. WHAT??  total shock there, no idea why. I could see why KA got let go because of performance, and I dont know the full reason for JR because he said it was kind of the same but other things as well, but he would not elaborate… but JR was seriously the best ever! I mean not numbers wise, he didn’t bring in all the numbers like others did but whenever I needed Anything even if it should be from someone else but they were out of the office, he would help me no questions asked. I could count on him for ANYTHING. I can see getting rid of someone that wasn’t performing well, but its a total moral buster to get rid of the nicest person who would do anything for anyone, and of course a jokester to lighten the mood every once in a while. So I’m Really bummed about that… so on top of the total shock i’m still trying to figure out what to do…Well I pretty much get it figured out, and put a phonecall into a corporate payroll person to ask a specific pay question and then when R finally gets my message and calls me back she pretty much said, you did everything you needed to do, good job. so that felt good! Even though I was at my wits end already. So I just have to finish some data entry regarding it tomorrow which shouldn’t be too bad. Oh and did I also mention the same time he announced the firing of KA he also announced someone else put notice in and then someone else pretty much got demoted but it was “mutual” and “the right decision for him” to move to this other job. Both were managers that I managed as well, and JR was in my team as well. So 3 out of the 4 ppl I worked with regularly. My head is just spinning!!

and not to “complain” anymore but I worked 10 hours yesterday without a lunch and today I had to come in early to give a presentation and then because of everything happening left over an hour late so I almost worked another 10 hours today with a quick lunch break but couldn’t leave -for another reason I will not even get into- so more like being at the office for 11 hours today… Yeah….I’m ready for bed and its not even 8pm yet LOL. Lets just hope tomorrow is better….

What A Week… what a weekend… I barely turned the computer on at all last week and I was deprived of internet for the long weekend. Last week we were busy getting ready to leave for the weekend, plus I was more tired than usual and busier at work, so I picked sleep over internet. Friday we drove over to the other side of the state to see the family, we stayed with the hubby’s mom who doesn’t have internet and we can never pick up a wireless signal with the laptop

Luckily the drive was only a 4 1/2 hr drive each way, even in holiday weekend traffic (twice it has taken us 6 hours). I think we went at the odd times so it wasn’t so bad. But man I was sure glad we weren’t going the other way on 75 on the way home. Some stupid idiot didn’t tie his boat down good enough and it flew off the trailer!! backed up traffic for MILES! it was a HUGE boat too! I wish i had the camera out to take a pic of that mess…

But I’m home now, and catching up on some of my fav. bloggers… Ria being one of them. Wow she talked a lot about me this week and I feel bad for not reading! HAHA. Sorry Ria! And she even named me as one of her 5 fav featured bloggers and gave me a “kickass blog” award, even though I think she’s just being nice LOL but thanks Ria!  and we will get back to our “writing challenge” this week, promise! and hopefully I’ll have time for more interesting blogs as well. I had a good rant last week but I didn’t get a chance to get on here, so there goes that!

But hopefully everyone had a great Memorial Day Weekend! And either relaxed or had lots of fun! And don’t forget WHY we celebrate, it isn’t just an extra day off work;)

Wish me luck for tomorrow that I won’t have to work until 9pm due to one day payroll because of the holiday…

Record High on Sunday!! It was 89 degrees. It hasn’t reached over 86 degrees since 1976! That is insane.  The normal average temp around this time is 70 degrees.  So I hope all you ppl in the cold weather aren’t hating me right now!

So the picture is a pic of my TV screen if you haven’t figured that out… is that cheating? lol.  I watch the news every morning. And sometimes I dont know why… its the same shit day in and day out. I mean, besides the weather, that changes, and thats what I mostly watch it for. I say weather and traffic, but really the only traffic they show is the highways and I dont even take the highway to work! so I dont know why I bother sometimes. I should just look the weather up on the internet or something to miss all the nonsense. I get really sick of hearing about horrible car accidents, or people killing other people, or the worst is when little kids get hurt or die! It’s So Sad. what is this world coming to?? I ask myself. Or is it not so bad but thats all they show? Are people Really interested enough in those stories that they can’t show all the good people do? I really don’t get it sometimes and it just makes me sick!
