I am feeling like a post!

Nothing new is really going on. I have been working a lot and Mike has been working more too; which means we don't get to see each other a lot. Work is going well; I have a great staff and I am soooo lucky because they make my job a lot easier. Now if things would stop breaking on me everything would be perfect!!

Last weekend was Kendra's 21st birthday . . . we all had a good time at the bars. We hoppped around town and had a nice little after party. We met up with a bunch of friends and had a good time. Kendra is planning a weekend in Jackpot with our parents and I will have to skip it because I am a poor soul. Maybe I can go home and stay with my parents soon like around my mom's birthday (hint, hint Mom).

Happy

HAD A GREAT DAY TODAY!!

Week in Review

What a week! I had a great week looking back; a very long, great week. I worked quite a few long days and didn't sleep well at all. The absolute highlight of my week was Mike and I's quick get-of-town run to Idaho Falls on Tuesday night. I left work a little earlier than normal, grabbed Mike and ran to IF for dinner and wandering. We had a good time, minus dinner which was sub-par. We have been together for two years now and it was a nice way to spend the evening.

It's really hard to say what else went on this past week; Monday was so good the rest of the week is really a blur. Work, basketball games(GO LAKERS), and nice weather.

I am looking forward to the end of the month. Jessica's graduation, and Kendra's 21st birthday. Should all prove to be a good time!!!

counting my . . .

I counted my chickens before they hatched. Today was uber rough at work...but I made it through alive!!! Go me!!!

p.s. my april numbers were up!!

One month and counting

It's been a bit over a month since I took my new position. It's been such a rollercoaster. I have been excited, happy, upset, sick, sad, tired, wore-out, and frustrated. It is going great though. I am sooo lucky to have such a great support system; I really am greatful for that and it's about the only thing that keeps me going on a regular basis.

I am not really sure where the month went; I can't really tell you what I have done. I have things I want to do and I sometimes feel I am not doing enough. People also tell me I am crazy.

Lets see what the next month brings!!

Voice Over

I woke up yesterday morning with a really horse voice. I worked and talked all day. I woke up this morning and all I can do is whisper. FUN!!

Update

I have been neglecting my blog for well over a month now. Shame on me!! So this post will be dedicated to catching up promising not to go an entire month without posting something.

The 26th thru the 28th of March I spent at my parents house relaxing and hanging out. I hadn't been home since Christmas so it was a long over due visit. My brother was on spring break at the same time and I admit it was horribly odd to have Rich home without having Kendra home at the same time. Odd feeling. Saturday morning I got up early and went with my mom to a health fair at RRHS. I had been thinking about getting my bloodwork done for almost a month so this was the perfect opportunity to get it done. I am TERRIFIED of needles so this was a huge accomplishment for me. The nurses thought I was insane and my mom cheered me on. I am just glad that it is over for now! I went and saw my cousin Sheena and her adorable son Rodee. Sheena and I made a date for later that night, which included dinner at Steve O's and watching the Bounty Hunter. First, I loved Steve O's and am mad at myself for not eating there sooner. Second, I loved the movie. I am a sucker for Gerard Butler's harshness and Jennifer Aniston has never been someone I hate. It was a great date night!! I spent the rest of the weekend being lazy with my family.

I found out, while on my vacation home, that my general manager was planning on quitting. I was so nervous that I wasn't going to get the promotion; but I got it!!! I am now the boss lady and I am loving it!! The first two weeks were difficult only in the aspect of working over 60 hours a week. That gets old quickly. But things have started slowing down for me a bit and I am settling in just great. I had to hire a head housekeeper and a maintenance person the first few days of my new position, and I am super happy with both of them. The HHK was having a hard time at first, but it's a million times better now. I couldn't ask for a better maintenence man. I have him working hard everyday all day. I am practically a slave driver according to my employees.

The test results for my blood work came back and I am unhappy to report that I am now on thyroid medication. My thyroid levels were double what they were supposed to be and my triglycerides were three times what they were supposed to be. Needless to say, I got into a doctor pretty quick and hopefully my levels will even out in the next month. I go back in for blood work in July to check everything out.

Other than work my life is really close to the same. Mike and I are loving our new place and things are going great!!
