Confused and Overwhelmed-Diagnosed Anal Sac Carcinoma (Woody has passed)

Checking in and wishing you luck tomorrow for the interview! :) :)
Job, car, companion, it's a mantra, you just have to chant it over and over. :)

Mel glad the headache is gone.

I'm late to the party tonight as went into office today and then hubs had a big day out and about at doctors appointments and now is feeling the not so great after effects tonight. (he had blood tests and then checked in with hand surgeon, good report on the hand so that is nice) Wish he'd beat this pneumonia once and for all though.

Good luck with your interview!!!! Everything will fall into place in its own time.
Alcatraz should be reopened for animal abusers :-(

Rise and shine Tracy!! Just about time for you to be getting ready for the big interview, I will be in the land of nod but dreaming good wishes your way :D It will be a good experience either way for your first interview, so get those butterflies flying in formation and go kick some butt!!

ps just watching Andy get his butt kicked by Roger (he's my fave!) xx

Thinking of you. Fingers and toes crossed here.

Good luck

Mel

Sharlene and Molly Muffin

Tracy:
Good luck today I know you will get this job so go get em girl!

Thank you all for the good wishes. Just got in from the interview, it went quite well, (I think) I answered all the questions they threw at me, which was a lot, I answered with confidence and precise responses so will have to wait and see. They have other people to interview so I won,t find out till next week if I got it or not. :)

Hey

So glad that it went well, sounded like it was quite a thorough interview. Rubbish that they have more people and that we have to wait till next week!!

Having a shocker again today but will try and catch you later

Big hug

Mel
Xxxxxx

Fooey, what are they doing interviews others and being all thorough, when they have the perfect candidate right in front of them. LOL

We are of course fiercely protective. :) :) :)

So glad it went well. Now you can relax and do something fun to make up for any stress that goes with first interviews. :)

hugs
Sharlene and Molly Muffin

Hey there

What a day! Wishes I had a different job right now :eek:

How you doing this evening?

Mel
Xxx

Hey Mel

Obviously doing better than you tonight, your work has to get better you can,t keep these stressful days up, I,ll come work for you take the pressure off :D

I would take you up on that if I could afford it :eek: have a set budget and they can't afford me either!

I had to print something for a meeting tomorrow I only realised late this evening and my printer wouldn't print any colour other than pink :eek: had to go to mums to do it as I wouldn't have time tomorrow!

What was for dinner tonight? I had take away again which I don't like to do so I better cook tomorrow!

Tracy:
All a bunch of rubbish. There probably are no other people for the job. This is the corporate "let her squirm a little and make like we don't really want her that bad, but we do." I 've been there and done that and they will call you!!! Blessings
Patti

I had sausage roll and chips all put in the oven, lol. Couldn,t be bothered cooking, I have had a bad headache all day, lack of sleep I think so now have my specs on and its getting better :)

You should have just printed it out in pink that would have shocked them all, and yes the CAN,T afford you.

Are you turning into me with cooking :eek:

Would never normally have takeaway two days in a row, just had to get that document. If it was an internal meeting I would have taken a pink copy!!

Is hard to look at the screen with a headache. Your sleep was probably also interrupted by the anticipation of the interview at least you can relax a bit tomorrow. Have you heard anything back from any of the others? Would be good to try some more to keep your options open...

Rain is back again tonight, pouring as we speak, no doubt that will continue tomorrow as I have to go up town! Did you get any of that snow or are you having rain too?

No its just been rain, rain and more rain here, I believe we have to have hail over the next 2 days with yet again more rain. :eek:

Nothing back from any other jobs, but I,m still applying and looking around. Been trying not to over analysis the interview today and read things into it , I,ll just have to wait, but I,m not good at waiting lol. Not giving up with the plan just yet :)

The hail gas been brutal the times we have had it usually brief and with thunder!

I am the worst waiter ever. When patience got dished out I got missed I think!

I agree that you shouldn't pin all your hopes on the one thing, I think you have a good shot but i am inclined to agree that you should keep looking. There maybe something even better out there!

Yeah that's what I,m going to do, keep looking you never know what will turn up :)

Are you all prepared now for your meeting tomorrow, is there any light at the end of the tunnel with work?

Oh did I tell you I got a an invoice in from the Animal Hospital today, although my insurance should cover it all they always send me an invoice, as soon as I read Euthanasia on it, I put it back in the envelope, no need for me to see or deal with that ! Out of sight out of mind lol

Even if there was something temporary you could do for a few weeks would be good to bring the pennies in.

As prepared as I can be for now.

Not really as there are a few issues still in play. It goes like that sometimes but it's hard. Corporate items don't help either so it's a constant juggle. Found put tonight I need to redo some reports from sept to now as they didn't give me the right info. Stuff like that makes me mad!

I am lucky though in many ways which I constantly remind myself!

Is your headache feeling any better?

I know where your coming from on that, my last job was the same, no information, or incorrect information being passed so had to be redone a lot. I once worked 93 days without a day off 12 hr shifts it was a nightmare, so know where your coming from. But in some ways I miss it, not the job just something to do occupy my brain with :rolleyes:

Headache is easing slightly but probably won,t go away till I get some sleep

I love the variety but there has to be a balance.

93 days of 12 hr shifts sounds brutal.

I cant imagine how tough it is for you right now babe. So I really hope this job today works out or something comes along soon. Keeping your mind occupied is hard! Do you like reading? A good book can sure waste a few hours :D

That is true, you never know what will turn up when you least expect it. :) Gads 93 - 12 hours days DOES sound brutal and I wouldn't like that at all. :(

Gads, Mel, I'm getting a headache just thinking about yours. :) I agree, the problem is balance, you can have hectic stressful days but need to have just as many if not more that aren't like that. Otherwise, you really can't end up being happy with what you are doing.

I'm a reader, so if not working or checking the forum, I'm usually reading. (if I'm lucky LOL )

I,ve always worked since leaving Uni, and to not have anything to do all day is a bummer. I,ve always lived a structured life you know get up, walk dog, feed dog, go to work, etc and now theres 24 hours for me to fill and no structure not even my furry friend to play with :mad:

I,m not a reader, I do tend to play games on my laptop a lot, as there is only so much daytime tv one can take lol. I,ll find something, but in the meantime will just have to keep myself busy ;)

Hi Sharlene, hopefully it will settle down soon.

I can relate. Schedule and order and it's all off now!

I love books but understand not everyone does. Maybe you should look in the library next time your in town as it's free to join and you may find something which could waste a few hours. Maybe start with Harry potter as they were awesome books for both kid and adult. I have read them a few times!

I love a good game also, my iPad is my favourite present ever!

I may do that Mel, have a look round the library the next time in town. I,ve got the dentist tomorrow yuk I think I need a filing I hate the place.

Anyway I,m going to go lye down see if this headache will shift, I,m pretty tired so hopefully I will sleep tonight.

Good luck for your meeting tomorrow, as always good to chat xx

Defo pick up a potter. They were funny books and you could do with a smile. Sucky about the dentist hopefully it won't involve drilling :eek:

Ok, you get off while you feel sleepy will catch you tomorrow

Night night
Xxx

ohh, if you like mysteries though, Stephen Boothe is a writer from the lake district that has a good series of mysteries going. He's very involved in local libraries and community too. (as an option to Potter, which are very good too)

I agree, only so much day time tv any person can take and stay sane. LOL I'm not much of a tv watcher actually. Every now and then a show will come along that gets my interest, but not often.
Hope the headache goes away!
hugs,
Sharlene and Molly Muffin

Take the time to redecorate and work on projects that you've been putting off, catch up with old friends and family :)

Tracy has already repainted the kitchen, been out with her mates drinking the bellinis so she is getting busy on it :):) Isn't it funny, when your working you think having endless time off would just be divine but when your forced into it you get bored silly! Interviews are stressful, no wonder you got a headache... :p I used to read heaps before the iPad came into my life :D now I go to bed and play with my apps :eek: xx

Yes Trish I,ve also painted the hallway, stairs and the bedroom, only the living room to go but haven,t mustered up the energy for that yet :o

Been to dentist today, got a filing and 2 injections :eek: I hate injections. I wish someone would make a dentist drill that doesn,t make a noise as that noise goes right through you. Tooth is acky a bit tonight but to be expected :rolleyes:

Ouch, not what you wanted today! That noise goes right through me too!

How has your day been otherwise? Don't suppose you felt much like dinner.

I made cottage pie with veg tonight, day was as bad as the others but it's Friday tomorrow thank goodness

Xx

Hello you,

Day was all right got caught in the hail storm we had we I came out the Dentist, had to walk to get the car and was muttering to myself as you do and looked up and there was a big bright rainbow in the sky just over the car park, I reckon Woody came to keep me company at the dentist or to laugh at me trying to drink with a frozen mouth :eek:

No dinner tonight just had some soup about 3 ish, not been that hungry today. Blargh for work again !!!

We had that hail too just before I was due to go to the meeting but it cleared up thankfully.

That's nice you saw the rainbow, I saw a double one over Christmas was so vivid, such a pretty sight.

I bet, always hurts so much after they have jiggered about!

So looking forward to the weekend. Can't wait till tomorrow night

Xx

Yay Friday night can,t come quick enough for you lol.

Got much planned for the weekend or are you just chilling ? I,m at my mates for my usual Friday night dinner and drinks it good as she only lives 2 mins from me, only downside is she asks for a blow by blow account of what I,ve been eating, sleeping etc, she just worries I suppose x

Family do on Saturday night, kids will be there so no doubt I will have them and the baby is teething so prob him too!

Nice you have that to look forward to. I don't do well being mollycoddled either but it's nice she cares

Oh teething babies I hate to see them with their wee red cheeks, usually a runny noise and not sure what is going on inside their mouths :confused:

I don,t have kids, but my niece is due in April and she asked me today when she could put me down for babysitting em well that will be when its about 2 yrs old. :D

Be good to see the family and hopefully you can chill out before its Monday again x

I am quite lucky usually I can sing, distract, make stupid faces to shut them up! I don't have children either.

Lol bet your niece thought you were joking!

It will be hectic as there will be a bunch of us but mum will love it.

How did you sleep last night in the end? Have you been able to get to sleep any earlier?

It was a waste of time going to bed, as soon as the light was out I was bing wide awake, in the end I got about 2 hours sleep. I fell asleep at mums this afternoon on the sofa for about 20 mins. She says I really don,t look well, and to be honest I am very pale with dark circles under my eyes. Sleep will sort itself out when I learn how to stop my mind racing, you know how it goes lol.

I,m going to go to the nurse next week get my thyroid bloods taken just incase my thyroid is playing up as that can sometimes stop me sleeping.
