Jordan called me on Friday to see if I can start watching his friend's son on Tuesdays and Thursdays. What's one more kid right. He is four and I really hope he will play well with Aaliyah. Themed Thursdays are going to need to more pre-schooly but that's okay. Secretly I've always preferred boys to girls so I am excited.
I've decided that I need to pick up some more zoning clients. Camille has been super fantastic and has been talking me up and she got me 2 more clients. In the past week I have gotten 5 new clients. I haven't even told people that I am starting to zone again which is amazing. I can only imagine what's going to happen once I make the announcement. I have had a lot of people waiting for me to get done with school so I can devote more time to zoning.
I'm supposed to have a meeting with my boss sometime. He always forgets about me though until he is walking out the door and then tells me he will talk to me the following day but never does. When I finally do talk to him I am just going to lay everything on the table. I'm not going to cover for people anymore. I am finally at the point where I am putting my foot down and not letting everyone at work walk all over me. They still have not gotten anyone to help me with my workload. Because of my schedule change I am now supposed to do the workload of 2 full time people in a 4 hour shift. Not to mention that we have been having a lot of problems so my first 45 mins of work is trying to get those taken care of. I just wish people would start taking more initiative at work and that I didn't have to hold their hand every step of the way. It's getting very frustrating.
This past week has been a very very weird week at work. Kody told me that he appreciates me which is something that he never does and I thought for sure he was saying that so he could dump some new project on me. He came back later in the day to tell me again how much he appreciates all that I do. David has been calling me Katie Kat which is odd mainly because he has never called met that before. The only person at work who calls me that is Britt and I don't even get to see her anymore. Also, he sad down next to me and plopped his feet on my desk. It was just weird. EDP had a little breakdown and is now going home close to the time she is supposed to which means I don't have here around very much anymore. I really haven't seen much if Ibrahim and we hired a new callcenter director. She seems nice she hasn't ever talked to me though, but I haven't tried talking to here either. I feel like I have distanced myself from everyone and it makes me sad. Dang my stupid workload.
In good news Jordan gave me Friday off because I needed to go into work by 2 instead of 3:30. The company is actually paying for us to take an hour off and go to lunch. SHOCKER! Since I don't have to watch the girls I am going to see if I can work an 8 hour shift starting at 6. I really hope EDP lets me. If I do get to work it then I will get to see Britt. I really miss talking with her and seeing her every day. I miss most of the day team as well. I don't really miss the drama but I will admit it will be nice to spend the mornings with all my favorite people. Plus, working an 8 hour shift will mean that I get to talk to the people around me. I am usually so bombarded with work when I go in that I don't talk to anyone.
Yesterday I decided that I wanted to go shopping. I needed some new pants and a new skirt. I ended up buying the cutest pair of blue satin pumps. I am so excited. One I got them home I realized that they will match perfectly with my blue sating shirt that I bought last year. Hooray! I also couldn't resist and I bought some teal and black bangle bracelets. I have no idea what has come over me. I never spend my money on things like that. I am having a little bit of buyers remorse for spending my money of frivolous things but at the same time I really really like my purchases.
On Thursday crazy Aunt Diane drove by my work. This is the third time in 2 weeks that I have seen here. This time though she intentionally drove by my work. Now I have to check my car every time I go out to make sure there is no damage to it.
They pushed my grandma's court date back again. This time the trial is set for the beginning of January. The judge said this was the last time Diane could cause the trial to be postponed but deep down I am sure she will come up with some other way to get out of going to it. It's almost been 2 years since we started all of this and I just want it to be over with.
I talked to my grandma yesterday and she said that once she gets her house back Camille and I can rent it. She is just worried about what Diane will do once she finds out. I say who cares, if she tried anything I will just call the police and if she tries to start fights then I will be more than happy to unleash all the anger and frustration that I have towards her. My grandma even offered to let Camille and I buy the house but there is now way we can afford what she should ask for it. Maybe we can work out a rent to own option or something.
When we do move into the house I could walk to my job at the college. Plus, it is right down the street from the office Camille's friend said she could use. That house really is in the ideal location. My only concern is driving on that steep hill in the winter. I am sure they salt it very well though.
Today I went to Josh's homecoming. He has changed a lot since I last saw him. It was nice to see how much he has grown over the years. I also got to see some friends that I have not seen in years as well. A couple families from the old neighborhood came to the homecoming and it was great seeing them and playing catch up.
Well I think that about sums up my week.
Hey Everyone!
Today as I let myself into my brothers house there;s both girls wide awake sitting on the lounge chair watching tv and waiting for me to get there. This is the first time they have both been up when I get there. Usually they wake up about 30 minutes after.
I found Jordan in the basement and he proceeded to tell me that the girls had been up since 4:30 when the heater made an extremely loud banging noise which woke everyone up. Prognosis of the heater...its dead. So we get to sit in a chilly house today. It's actually not to bad right now. Jordan suggested I take the girls to my moms house but my step-dad is home sick and that won't fly. Maybe if it gets too cold I will take them over to see great grandma.
I was watching Lazytown this morning and decided to look up the main character. He looked a little bit like Steve from Blue's Clues. Completely different guy but I found out he is 44. He does not look like he would be 44 if I had to guess I would have said mid 30's at the oldest.
Well Aaliyah just got up from her mini nap and its time to get breakfast going. I will write more when I get the chance.
