It's not often in my life that I make a decision I'm 100% certain about, but giving my two week notice at Wild Rose was one of those decisions, and a life-changer at that! For once I have no doubt, no uncertainty, no buyer's remorse. It's definitely bittersweet as I LOVE that place, and wasn't ready to leave yet, but I've been telling The Universe ( Read more... )

Last night Jade gave me the book E-Cubed, inside was a card with a painted red heart that read, "He's marrying me, but he's stuck with us. Will you be my maid of honour?" Kels and I will be co-maids, which is cool. And a little surprising - I kind of thought Carley would get the position. And was a little bit hoping that she would. Don't get me ( Read more... )

We'd just been away the weekend before and I was feeling really behind with work, B-School and my CBP course. What I really wanted to do was spend the weekend home alone, to concentrate on all the work I ( Read more... )

It seems that the more I study and focus and read and engage, the more I am absorbing, the more excited I get, and the more I'm absolutely blown away. By people. By concepts. By the sheer mass of unbelievably cool stuff that's being thought about and shared and acted upon ( Read more... )

On Thursday I had yet another meeting with my manager about my promotion to assistant manager. Except it's going to be a promotion to "supervisor," and I'm not going to have any authority over my coworkers "Because we self-manage," but I'm going to have more responsibility and make less money, but not get the perks I want (like making the schedules ( Read more... )

Being productive can be a struggle for me. Will power and motivation are simply not my friends. Time management is another tricky area. How I've gotten this far in life, I'm not sure. Then again, where exactly am I ( Read more... )
