Good Morning ladies!

We made it to hump day, woo hoo! Today it is overcast in VA, but I am thankful that means it wont be quite so hot today. I'm definitely ready for fall weather, actually everything that fall brings with it. If only August would fly by...

I finally have Internet access at work again, so I cant catch up with you ladies woo hoo. Anyone have anything exciting going on today?

 Hope everyone has a great day!

Re: Good Morning ladies!

  • Morning! I am off to work, but I just got a text from my boss saying the team has a last min "emergency" conference call before lunch. Last time they did this was three years ago and there were layoffs. I am hoping that is is ( I am messed up I know) and they they offer a severance package if you offer to leave up front. I would love for six months of pay to find a new job I like more, haha. We shall see though!

  • Michaela-- Haha! I know that feeling for sure! I would certainly love the same. FI always says that getting laid off was the best thing that ever happened to him. He wasn't challenged in his job, he was making good money, and he wasn't motivated to look for something better. It was hard for a good 6 months after he got laid off, it took him 2 months to get a job and when he took it it was in DC (1.5 hours one way) and for half of what he was making before... but 4 months into that he got an awesome job by home that was more challenging and exciting than anything he'd done before for a full $20k more than the job he was laid off from!

    I'm hoping that if that happens to you you're just as lucky to find something you love that's better! :)

    I am going to take my camera to the local pro camera shop on my lunch break and hopefully it's an easy fix. If not I'm going to be pretty upset... that is until the new shiny camera arrives and I'll forget all about the hefty price tag it came with :P

    Have a wonderful day everyone! 

  • Morning!  I've been pretty busy lately but I have a few days of downtime I'm pretty excited about that.  Just waiting on the cable person to come and fix our remotes, then going to go to the gym.  I haven't decided if I'm going to clean and organize or maybe do some scrapbooking yet today.  I have a feeling I'll be scrapbooking though.

  • Good morning all! I had very little actual sleep and now I am trying to get through my day of meetings and then REALLY need to go to the gym...I am hoping to run a couple of miles and then take a spin and abs class.  Tonight I am hoping I can finish up my book and watch shark week.  DH has some school work to do. 

    I am so looking forward to the weekend, it can't be here soon enough!  Can we just skip a couple of days??

     Our summer just started! Seriously, the last week has been the nicest all year. We're all hoping it'll last til october if we're lucky!

    Work today, errands on lunch, gardening with my sister tonight. Things are finally feeling a little less hectic now that we've got a few more checks done. I am trying to remember all those things like trying to enjoy these last few weeks and remembering how blessed I am and that I have no reason to whine/complain about dumb little things, having a DW is not something everyone is as fortunate to have and most importantly, I get a DH and a honeymoon at the end of this! 

  • Just at work, barely chugging along today!  Our computer guy is coming in though, so that will be nice because I'm getting a new computer for work and he's going to transfer all my music over to my new laptop from my old desktop at home.  DH gets off earlier today, so I'm going to make him go on a walk with me and the dog when it gets a little cooler.  I have no idea why I just wrote cooler considering it was still 103 at 9pm when I was driving home last night.  At least the sun won't be pelting on us?  No matter what, I have GOT to get my butt to the gym.  I am feeling so freaking grosso!!!
