Re: Win and Whine

  • Win: I know I've said this numerous times...but booking all the dinning reservations that we wanted at the times we wanted....including: breakfast in Cinderella's Castle and a fantastic dinner with a view of the Magic Kingdom fireworks. Most exciting thing of my week.

    Whine: I lost my vacation time when I went part time contrary to what my boss told me. I was under the impression that I got to keep my vacation time that I earned, even though I dropped to part time. Nope. They paid me for it, which is great. But, I wanted the *time* more than pay honestly.

     01.21.2012---> I married a redhead I'm crazy about.

    04.2016: IT'S A BOY! Elias Alan is due!

    WDW trips: 05/14 (1st trip! Art of Animation; Little Mermaid), 05/15 (Pop Century!). DL Trips: 12/15


      

  • Will you go without pay when you have your vacation?

    Win- My pigs are soooooo cute.  See FB. lol I adore them.

    Whine- Am. 66 didn't pass, which means my job could be cut.  While I am not too worried because my position is needed, I feel like I need to be prepared.  J wants to stop TTC till we know for sure.
  • I will, but T gets a bonus check the week before we go, so I don't need it honestly. I mean more money is great, but I was going to use the time for the holidays. Otherwise I will be pretty much forced to work.

    I hope everything works out with you and your job! I really hope it doesn't get cut and you can start TTC again soon.

  • Thanks.  Like I said, they kinda need me and there are a few people before me that could go. But you just never know.  

    At least you will get to enjoy some time off this holiday season with T and your family!
  • Well, I hope so anyways. Since I don't have the days anymore, they may try to force me to work over Christmas. That is not happening. I will throw a hissy fit about it lol.

  • Win: I have officially been approved to take two extra weeks off this winter break, so I will be able to be with Jared 4 full weeks straight, one of them in Disneyland. I booked our flights down to disneyland and got a GREAT deal: Round trip for both Jared and me for $315 total. We have our hotel booked for $454 for 5 nights, breakfast included and walking distance from disneyland. I hate spending money, but when I do spend it, I LOVE when I know I got good deals

    Whine: My grandpa had two doctor's appointments these past two weeks. Last week was to get the results of his PET scans, which were not good. Today was to go over "end of life options." Today he was told that the cancer is now in his lungs and his bones, and he is not strong enough to start chemo again, which would only maybe prolong his life just a little bit longer. Between this and Jared being two states away, I'm finding I am much less motivated in my grad school work this school year. Luckily my grades are all good, but still. My heart isn't quite in it the way it was last year.

  • Oh and whine continued: He is going to start in-home hospice care this week. Which hospice care does not get involved/approved unless an individual is, at most, in their last 6 months of life

  • Win- I have the most adorable 5 month old and she makes me so happy

    Whine- I probably lost my chance at getting hired for a teaching position in my favorite school district. All because I was stupid enough to use the internet during school time. (I made a post about it.) I'm so upset. 

    Jean- I am so very sorry to hear about your Grandpa. 

    Married the love of my life on 1-21-12. Our princess arrived on 5-28-13.

  • Oh Jean I am so sorry! I hope he can be comfortable and enjoy his time left. 

    Win: my day class teacher is awesome.  He made our test a take home test!  Yay.

    Whine:  Oh lordy, I could fill a post (and might later just to vent).  But this morning it's mainly this nasty sore throat.  Came out of no where last night and is really bothering me.  Popping ears and a headache too. Ugh!

  • Jean- I am sorry about your grandfather.

    Michelle- I hope you feel better.

    Win: J won a free dinner from work last night. Now I get to have filet for lunch for the next two days.

    Whine: I have so much left to sew. I wish that I hadn't taken the twirling job. I really don't have enough time. And I hope that my dad doesn't choose to give the stool we bought last night for my uncle to him for his birthday instead of Christmas. It will mess up my plans.
