Pam that made me think of Bad Girls Club..

Do any of you watch it?? Judy? Seems up your alley since you watch I <3 NY and all that.

Last nights finale, Amber showed a pic of her jack@$$ boyfriend, and he was SCARY ugly with his muscles and steroid looking self...

Nope, haven't seen it. I'm hooked on Rock of Love/Bus tour and Ru Paul's Drag Race. I need help.

Good afternoon, Violets..

What a dark, dreary day it is here. It's been raining on and off all day. Ethan has been playing Wii and watching cartoons. His daddy comes to pick him up at 5 and I'll be off to choir.

PamELA.. I'm anxious to see the finished tattoo..I just don't want to think about all the pain!!! :thumbup:

Michelle, just imagine what religion would be like if all the pastor's wives were like me!! :thumbup::eek:

Off to take care of the last load of laundry. I wanna ride my new bike!!! The weather is just not cooperating.

Hey girlies...

We've received our Fed tax return & dh is busy paying off credit card balances, so I'm going to buy my Vi trip plane tix before he uses it all up! I'm going to go check Terri's spreadsheet to see when others are arriving/departing to see if I can coordinate times w/anyone, but if not, then I'll just do my best. I'm going to do the arrive on Thurs / depart on Mon schedule.

Will post to the other thread w/the details after the deed is done!! :thumbup::biggrin::thumbup::biggrin::)

Sorry Laura!

Can't wait to see it Pamela!!

Rick said they had more layoffs today, several so far, and supposedly a stack to still call! Yep call, they are no longer even bringing them in to the office, they are calling their cell phones! So far he has not got the call. Keeping my fingers and everything else crossed.

With that phone call, I made the decision to go to the interview.

It is a small office, he stressed to me it is a stress free environment, and if I should find myself stressed, it is time to talk to one of them! LOL, like any work is stress free.

The pay they offered is decent. He does not offer benefits, as they are such a small group. But hey if a lay off were to hit us, just an income to go with unemployment, would be beneficial.

I would be working Mon-Wed 9-5, Thurs. I would be in the office all by myself, doors locked. I would use that day to file any insurance things, approve insurance on upcoming appointments, answer the phone, make reminder calls, deal with anything in the lab that is being done, that sort of thing, but no patients. He does one day a week of pro bono work for the county clinic, and he is in there on Thurs. Then on Fri. the office is only open from 9-1, so I would be out by 2.

Rick told me to tell them about the trip in June, so I did, they said they could work around most things, even kind of sounded like I might work my Mondays to be off at times. He said the rest of our vacations we would work out as they hit, and he could do the cows in TX without me if he has to. I hate that, but trying to look at the big picture (and it sucks!!!)

So they want me to let them know Friday morning. So it will be running pros and cons through my head for the next day or so!

Kinsey is going to her Dads today, and will not be back until Sunday---I am HATING that!!! Manda is going to Kansas, and he is on vacation. One I understand from my DH it is a good thing he is taking, he might well be losing his job! Anyway, I will be here if she wants to come here.

She and Manda went and toured the new daycare facility opening up here in town. They just got the state approval, and are getting their computer systems up and going. They have mommy cams in the rooms, so she can log in and check on what Kinsey is doing any time of the day. They took Kinsey around and showed her where her room would be, she would be in a class of 10 with a teacher and an aide. She would do pre school class for half a day, then would have a sharing pod, a music pod, a gym pod, and an outdoor play time. They vary by day, but it is a set schedule so Manda would know where to look for her at.

Kinsey seems excited by it, they have a stage, and dress up clothes, and that was the seal on the deal for her!!

So if I do this, Rick said he would support me anyway he could, he said he would take over half the household chores, and he kept emphasizing I was to first put $$$ back and go on my trip! Plus it would help my SS in the not so far future!!! LOL

So....any input would be appreciated, I know there are angles I am not looking at.

Gonna eat a bowl of Soup. Waiting for them to come and finish thatching my yard, they did the front, but were paid to do the back as well....and they were bagging it, it was my mistake, they were just using the dumpster to hold the bag upright.

Talk to ya later!

Wow Kat... big decision... big changes... but as always you sound in control & sure of your options. I'd say "give it a whirl"! But only if you are CERTAIN you'll have off for the Vi trip!! :thumbup:

Kat, the job is a big decision. I'm sure whatever you decide Rick will back you up, (he's a keeper). With times the way they are, it does seem like the best thing to do would be to take the job. Just know that I will miss you posting thru the day but will look forward to the evenings when we hear from you.

Hubby to the Harley in for the tire to be changed and than for it to pass inspection. You'd think that a tire would last more than 11,000 miles. Oh well. As long as he is safe.

I took a little nap but find myself ready for another one. I think maybe it might be that the clouds have rolled in and it's kinda gloomy out. It was all sunshiny and springy this morning. A lot of the trees and bushes are blooming and some of the tulips are coming up. So guess what? They are calling for snow on Saturday. Never fails. All the pretty blooms will be gone.

Looks amazing Pamela!!! I still occasionally think about the little one maybe on my foot, but, I am too big of a chicken for that even, I cannot imagine one like yours!!!

The Violet in the one I looked at when I went to get my chaps altered --the shop is owned by brothers, one is a tattoo artist, the other is a leather worker-anyway, is broader petaled flowers, and is all in deep purple almost to a black on the broadest petal...he said it was one that would hold up well as a small tattoo, not lots of different colors or fine lines. He said to get that, go big. So to get that, I'd need to do a Pamela!!!

Thanks for sharing, has it quit hurting???

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
