I’m sitting here. Listening to the rest of “Grace of Monaco”. I must say that I simply cannot watch it anymore. Nicole Kidman’s eyes are constantly irritated. It just looks painful. I can’t watch anymore. How can someone’s eye look like they have sand in them be comfortable? Not one of her good roles at all. I do enjoy some of her work - just not this one. I’m also watching my Samsung Galaxy S4 finish a system update. I hope it does not render my phone dead. Then again if it does - maybe I can finally get a new one? Yeah.. probably not without a deposit of some astronomical size. I’ll just pray that it will make it through fine.
We have shift bids coming up at work. The dreaded shift bids. I only thought they frazzled me before. They have me in near panic attacks, to be honest. Our shifts are given to us for 6 months at a time. It’s great if you get the shift that you want - if you don’t you’re stuck for half a year. That’s a long time to be at a job you don’t like. My sweetie found out today that he is the number 1 consultant for our site. We have over 200 employees. After just 5 weeks, I’m ranked #44. I’m number 5 on our team (he’s number 1 obviously). The goal is to stay on the same shift with the same days off. I hope that we can get this accomplished. I’m praying for it actually.
Their offering double overtime at work lately. My last day off was July 30. My next day off is Aug 19. Grant you it is not as bad as what it seems. I go in on my days off for approximately 5 hours and I receive 10 hours of pay. Some people are killing themselves at the moment with working 12 and 14 hour days. I say why? I’m not going to burn myself out just to make an extra buck. Some extra pay is great but not when it comes at the cost of burning out. So far I have 22 hours of extra pay. On my days off this coming week, I’ll see if I can make another 22. That will be an extra week’s pay for only 4 days work. Woot woot!!
Still nothing from “the friend”. No calls in - no calls out. I have no real way to check for txt messages. A big part of me wants to believe that this episode is done and our lives can continue, however, there is also a part that does not trust that when he says it’s done it really is.
I’ve had this stupid cough for 3 weeks now. I wish it would go away. I wake up every day with barely a voice. By 10 am it’s back (my voice that is - keep in mind I start work at 4 am and I talk all day long!) but a cough continues through the day. Apparently it’s going around. I think I got it from my grand babe. Her doctor brushed it off as allergies. If it was allergies I would not have caught it. I also hear many others with it both on calls and while out shopping. Funny how a cough can spread all over the place. Makes you wonder if we all will catch some sort of plague and get wiped out one day.
My blood work came in - all is fine with that. The pap test was rejected. Not quite sure what that means to be honest. Not sure what American standards and test results are called. I have an ultrasound on Monday. Depending on what that finds (or does not find) will determine if the doctor wishes to re-do the pap. He gave me Provera for 10 days. It was the best 7 days of my life!!! FINALLY no bleeding of any sort! But day two of being off the Provera and my defective uterus was back to its old shenanigans. Not sure what that means for me for the future. I guess we’ll find out sometime next week or the week after. I think my doctor is on vacation next week.
Well, I’m going to go get dinner started. Tonight we’re having what I call “Goop”. It’s real name is “Italian Wonder pot” but I’ve called it goop from day one. It really does look like goop but it’s quite tasty. Made even better with feta cheese <3
Happy Tuesday everyone. Hope you had a great day of it. Tomorrow is HUMP day!!! woot woot!
