Back in the office, yippee! I do like being in the office, I am so rarely here that I sometimes forget what it looks like. Of course, I will be spending most of today working on my presentation for BCBS that I'm doing Monday. I'm so wigging out about it too. Mostly because they didn't give me a lot to work with and I don't really do soft skills ( Read more... )

First off, I feel like I'm getting the flu. Everything in my body hurts, I have a temperature of 100 and change and my stomach is feeling a bit icky too. I wish I could stay home and rest, but NOOOOOO, I have to drive an hour to Rocky Mount and finish Day 2 of my class and then drive home. Ugh! That is going to be really hard. This is one ( Read more... )

Man, it's finally Friday! It seems like this has been one of the longest weeks ever. I guess being in Tucker Sunday through Wednesday has really thrown me off. Not to mention feeling slightly under the weather most of this week. I'm wondering if I picked up some freaky bug out in Arkansas since I haven't been feeling well since I was there.

It's been a long week. Right now I'm sitting on a conference call about the results of our Employee Survey. The Survey where they ask questions like "My Manager gives me sufficient flexibility to address personal/family needs" The one where I dissed my manager on some things. It's interesting seeing what the scores are. Especially knowing what ( Read more... )

Well, Dad went to the doctor today and yes, there is something neurologically wrong with him. They think it might be MS. But they have to run an MRI on him to find out for sure. It's really scary and sad. He fell over trying to get up from dinner. He's a big guy and my mom can't catch him all of the time. I just hope they find out what's ( Read more... )

Yesterday was a very nice day. It started off by sleeping in. How nice! And then I got to putter around all morning. Spent time playing the evil, evil Sims Complete Collection. Man, that is going to be a time sink. But it's entertaining ( Read more... )

Well, the nasty, straight out of a horror movie eye is looking better. Still reddish. But now in that "I've got allergies" kind of way. Still a bit itchy and oozy though. So looking back, I think I could have taught that class today. But I'm still contagious today so maybe that wouldn't have been a good idea ( Read more... )

Hello from Charlotte. Today I completed another 11+ hour day. This time it was teach all day, gather my stuff up, brave Charlotte rush hour traffic while driving to another branch and then teach for another 2 hours. sigh! Just part of the job. Then I get to drive back to Raleigh tomorrow morning and sit on a boring conference call. Wheee ( Read more... )

And I don't have an infected salivary gland. Just a few infected lymph glands. But now I know where an infected salivary gland would be located. And he gave me a prescription for Cipro. He's wondering if I have a mouth infection, which I don't think I do. But I'm going to the dentist anyway next week, so we'll see. I guess that would be a ( Read more... )

And there was much rejoicing in my world. See I've had pink eye for the last week and a half. And this time it was the nasty, contagious version of pink eye instead of my usual eye infection. So that meant I had to wear glasses. Thank goodness I had new styling ones to wear. However, these glasses need to have their lenses reground since the ( Read more... )
