Well since my last entry I have moved to Illinois with my mom. Her and my dad are seperated again. I like my room here and the house is in a pretty quiet neighborhood. Right now transportation is limited so we have had to walk everywhere. I got my daughter enrolled in school and I go back to work Monday after taking about 2 months on a leave of absence. I am looking forward to being back at work. Life is about the same otherwise. I guess that's all...

Well it has been ages since I have written a journal entry. I dunno why I really decided to tonight either....other than to kill some time. My company got bought out by another brokerage firm so I may be out a job sooner or later. We have yet to see any real developments yet. Life just keeps chugging along and I still have not been able to get my dentures or move out of the house. I am working on both though. I also need to buy a car might I add. Things with Michael have been next to phenomenal. I love him more each day, thus making it much harder to be apart all week long. Hopefully, within the near future, that will change. It will be 3 1/2 years this month for us. Man, I never thought I would be with somebody that long. It just goes to show love can ******** you up and then you can find the person who is just right for you, even if they seem your complete opposite. heart

Last Wednesday was a pretty bad storm. It was almost hurricane like weather here in the Midwest. Power was knocked out for over 600,000 people. It was nuts. I had power on the next day but my dad didn't get his back till just yesterday. Ice and bottled water was nowhere to be found those first few days. Gas stations were running out of gas because the main supplier has lost power. Hell, people were under a boil order because the water plant lost power. It was utter chaos. Things are back to normal on my end. I have been going to work as usual and trying to help my dad conserve gas as much as possible. Work has been slow, but that's just how it gets sometimes. I have been with A.G. Edwards well over 3 months now and am hoping my application and interview will get me a second interview so I actually get hired on there for a bit. I need a full itme job with benefits. I'm so glad there are only two more days this week. I just want the weekend to get here so I can be done and over with everything. sad

I took my RMA Saturday morning. It was a 200 question test covering everything from EKG to medical law. The test was scored on a scale from 0 to 99. I cranked out a 96. I'm so proud of that. After my exam was over I went back home and called my fiancee as soon as I thought he might be awake. He was very happy for me. We hung out later that night for our anniversary. 2 and a half years now we have been together. We went out to dinner at Fazoli's and then headed to the mall for some shopping. I got him a Naruto video game and got myself Demon Stone, some raspberry shower gel, and a manga. It was a nice weekend spent with him and I look forward to next weekend. He will be coming over here for the whole weekend and it is my daughter's birthday on Saturday. I bought some of her presents already and have to do a bit more shopping Friday night at Toys R Us. I hope she enjoys what I got her. Life is swell and I get a short day of work and get to wear jeans tomorrow. Fun times.

Today was employee appreciation day at work. I didn't know we could wear jeans so I missed out on that...which bites. It would have been a much more comfortable day for me if I had known. My dress shoes are getting on my last nerve so I decided I am wearing tennis shoes tomorrow. If anyone asks I'll say my feet are giving me trouble, and since I broke my toe not too long ago it won't matter much. I'm sure no one pays attention anyways. So yeah...employee appreciation day was basically "get drunk after work" day. They had so much booze. I didn't go, but I watched everything being set up. They had barbaque and games and liquor....lots of liquor. The food smelled really good, but all I wanted to do was get home and get out of my shoes. When I got home I played RO for a bit, watched some tv, and took a snooze. Work will be the same as always tomorrow, but at least I get to do the escalation report, so I have a little bit more variety in my tasks and a little more to occupy my time. I just cannot wait for the weekend. I want to see my sweetie and go shopping. I want to just be able to relax a bit.

A fellow temp at work seems to be pretty jealous that I get so many tasks handed over to me. I am a fast learner, part of the reason why I feel my supervisor actually trusts me with so much. And it's not like it takes a whole lot of effort to walk over to Sandy's desk and ask for work, something I am sure both of the other temps are capable of. If they really want to get hired on full time there they need to show initiative, not sit back and wait for things to fall into their lap. See, while getting hired there would be great, I already have other plans and want to actually apply my degrees and work in the medical field. This is just income right now but I quite enjoy the job and I feel do it well. Hell, one of the other supervisors came up to me today and asked who Sheron (one of the other temps) was. That's not good if after a month and half people don't know who you are still. You have to show them you want it. Sorry if I do that. People need to get their heads out of their asses and put forth that extra effort.

Alrighty, so work today was interesting. Come lunch time people were doing the usual, taking orders for lunch. People normally write their name on an envelope and put down what they want and how much they paid on the outside. Well, I was passed the menu and envelope for a place to get food and then Chinese food was brought up. Stephanie, who's name was on an envelope I had in my hand, decided she wanted to change her order and scratch her name off the one I had. Shawn's name was the only other order on it and I thought he was changing his order as well. I asked him and Stephanie both if they needed the envelope any longer, otherwise I was just going to pitch it. Stephanie said no and Shawn didn't reply so I threw it away. About 20 minutes later Shawn came up asking for the envelope. I told him I threw it away because I thought he had changed his order to the Chinese food instead. I apologized for my mistake and he got all pissy. After he got a new envelope and placed his order he comes back and asks Stephanie..."Did I cancel my order?" She said..."No, I don't think so." I stood up and told him if he had an issue with me just let me know, apologized again, and stood there for a second. He got major attitude and told me he didn't want to say anything nasty that's why he asked Stephanie...and rudely told me to sit down like he was my daddy. All of this nonsense over an envelope and my mistake of throwing it away. The real kicker is that he said had he talked to me he would of called me a b***h and said he didn't like me because I have a smart mouth. No offense, but I have never called him a single name or put a harsh word his way and I barely talk to him at work so I don't get it. Whatever works though, because at least I didn't look like a fool getting all pissed off over an envelope. I stood up for myself and was the bigger person by not being ignorant back. That guy has some issues.

Things have been running solid in my life for about a month now. I have held my temp job and I feel, impressed my supervisors with how quickly I pick things up and how hard I work. My relationship has been at an all time high. Getting out has helped my Michael be more at ease and we have had little to no fighting, compared to what it used to be. I am more in love with him now than ever because we get to enjoy each other more now that the bickering has subsided. It's great! I just got back from his house and I already wish I was there again. It's nice to be cuddled and curled into him. It's nice to just be near him. I cannot wait till the day I can actualy live with him. Things will be awesome then. Ah well, another long week until I see my sweetie again.

Tomorrow I have two carnivals to go to. One is for my daughter's preschool. She gets to play games and there are raffles for prizes. It should be enjoyable. Then tomorrow night I am going to the Valley of Flowers with my fiancee. I haven't been in about three years. I love it. I will get to eat excellent barbaque and get a funnel cake and the like. It will be good times. I got my second paycheck today. It was pretty cool to get money yet again. I really need to get on opening up my bank account though. I was running too late today to get to the bank in time. Oh well. I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow. Thundercats HO!!!!
