Had a job interview today and she made me an offer I can't refuse. Almost a dollar an hour more and no working holidays. Monday- Friday 40+ a week! Normal people hours 9:30-6:30! I hate leaving my pt job so much I'm gonna see if I can work a couple of Saturdays a month.Just not every single one like now and no more 3 Am shifts ;)
It's day child care but since that's my actual field, they'll pay for any extra education and I never pass up free education, I'm happy.

~Very interesting couple of weeks around here. We've been tie dieing everything in sight, well a bunch of t shirts anyway. Lotsa fun and blue seems to get on the fingers regardless of gloves for some reason.
~We've been mainlining all 5 seasons of Angel. Now I need to find a couple of caps to make icons or whatever.
The cap I really want is from Smile Time as team Angel is going out to fight the puppet demons.
I think you know the one I mean...
If anyone knows where I can find one...Please?
~And \o/ Dr says all chemo finished around Labor Day!One year anniversary coming up and I'm still kicking and cancer free! I am blessed with a treatment that ends after a year and won't go on and on unless I have a recurrence. Not receiving that!
~ Think good thoughts cuz I'm also looking for a new job. Maybe in my own field of child development...you know day care *snerk
Or Someplace closed on weekends and holidays where I don't have to get up at 2AM on Mondays (well except this one they scheduled me 9-3 just to screw up my July 4 plans)but can remain pretty active.
Okay hopefully this all makes up a little for being so absent from my lovely f-list,Icon coms and all.
I missed you even if you didn't miss me *lol*

Watching A Wrinkle in Time starring Katie Stuart who was also in The Sentinel and SG1.

*There were a few other crosses with RB in the cast,but this one was most immediately noticeable to me.

With a bump. Arrived home Tuesday evening to have a Dr appointment and treatment Wednesday morning. All good news \o/. Last treatment should be around Labor Day.
Vacation was everything we hoped. Played and shopped in Las Vegas for a week, took a couple of small road trips but mostly just wandered around and relaxed.
Lazed around Lake Havasu City made two trips to the Grand canyon, drove route 66, took pix of the London Bridge, laid around swimming pool a little and explored. Even saw a Cirque du Soleil show Monday night when we returned to Vegas to come home.Stayed at the Excalibur that night and visited a couple of places we'd missed before like The Paris, New York New York and Mandalay Bay.All in all, it was wonderful and relaxing and fun. Really didn't want to come home,but real life beckoned. Tim had to use the rest of his vacation time from last year so he's off this week and I don't return to work till Saturday...ugh that's tomorrow.
Still looking for a new job, especially to get back and find my schedule this week 3am till 10 Monday with one day later in the week. This cannot continue. Time to find a real job, with benefits and vacation and weekends off. Yea right...
When I get the pix loaded on my comp I'll make some photostories to share.
Hope everyone is well and happy ,I've missed you all but not too much *g*

We're all packed and ready.
Tomorrow (wonderful timing on our part due to threat levels) we take off to a place where we know...no one! No real plans other than where to stay and a couple of goals we'd like to meet.
I can feel myself relaxing already.

I have found it sort of weird that I now count down the dates of events by infusion appointments. So, it's one infusion (tomorrow), three work days and one Cinco de Mayo potluck till VACATION!
Next Monday we jet off to Las Vegas for a week and then drive to Arizona to spend a week at Lake Havasu. Yes, I know it will be hot, but right now I am finding it hard to care. I'll whine later.


\o/ I'm thinking we really deserve this one.


When I get back, I think I may look for a new job. I love people but watching grown women pitch tantrums over sale signs or coupons they didn't read correctly is harshing my squee...

Only one post duplicated too.I forgot you have to re embed videos, but that was easy enough.
I now can rest easy that all my important *g posts are safe :lol:

*cross-posted everywhere

Your intermittent service is making me feel quite stabby today and that is saying something as I am very even tempered and forgiving (stop that cackling!).
Although it may be, that having my port missed twice today by new nurse resulting in a one inch needle plunged into my chest (twice well, three times if you count the actual access) may have made me a little less patient with you and your hacker problems than usual.
But still who or what ever is responsible, CUT IT OUT!

Also, I have DW invites.
That is all...Well for now.

Just about asleep last night after a day of running ,last minute shopping, cake baking, going to cake decorating class,cleaning kitchen left by men on their own for dinner and was drifting away to the sounds of someone looking for a house in Texas...zzzzzzz
When Lo,the Emergency Broadcast System Alarm sounded off. I had forgotten how truly horrendous that sound is.
Announcing a Tsunami alert for the coastal areas of AK off the devastating 8.8 Sendai Earthquake. We are never sure if this can effect us as we live on an Inlet and it has be speculated a wave could come down but (it would have to be massive) it seems we are far enough inland to be clear although in a creak valley.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those affected and their families.

Happy Belated Birthday  anyway.

Hope it was wonderful and packed with goodies!

Blood work much improved. \o/
Christmas week off work and I actually ate out a couple of times this weekend. So getting to eat the things I really missed will make up for any taste deficiency over Christmas Holidays. Things will be put away for later.

Chemo canceled due to blood work. So I finally made my wallpaper for SA and Christmas...
