And it's the start of another week!  Hopefully, I'll get some extra overtime handed to me, but at the same time, I'm not counting on it until I see it.  Fingers crossed, though ( Read more... )

And it's the start of another workweek.  It'll be a shorter week than normal for me, unless something changes.  They're reducing our overtime to 2 hours a day, and I normally work 4.  Gonna make things a little tighter on the pocketbook, but hopefully, it won't last too long.  Things always slow down in insurance at this time of the year, and ( Read more... )

It's Tuesday?  Really?  From the way things are going today, you'd think it was a Monday!

I didn't make it to the gym today because my left hip is really hurting.  I'm not sure why, but it is.  I am going to try and get the yard mowed before the rain hits, though.  I have to get something physical done.

For all of you here in the US, please be sure to take the time and go and vote. I went and voted about 8am this morning (I don't have any excuses now, lol, as my polling center is about 4 blocks from the house). I'm not sure how the results are going to turn out, but at least I can feel glad that I did my part ( Read more... )

I've had the worst sinus headache all day long. I woke up with it about 1 AM, and I moved from my bed to the recliner to finish up my sleep since the more upright position seems to help. It went away by the time I woke up for work, but it returned about 10am. I've taken 4 sinus pills in the last five hours, and it hasn't helped a lot. I'll ( Read more... )

Yaaaaayyyy! I'm so glad it's Friday. I'm just ready to kick back, watch Season 2 of The Office on DVD to catch up before Season 3 starts next week. This week has been a good one, but a long one ( Read more... )

This hasn't been the best week for work.  Tuesday, our system was down for about three hours, and it went down again today at 10:45 am, and it wasn't up when I checked about an hour ago.  Usually, telecommuters don't get to take system downtime since we have more hours available to us for work than the in-house crew does, but in our phone meeting ( Read more... )
