Good morning everyone
 Coffee is on  and breakfast is served... I thought Zimmy could use breakfast in bed especially after all that walking and early rising. I know it's a shock to the system, but how great that you're back to work! That first paycheck is going to feel sooooooo good!Yesterday was busy and productive...getting some work tasks wrapped up that have been keeping me hopping...made the boys their favorite homemade cream of chicken and rice soup...made Scoote her chicken salad (now she just has to defend it from the kitties!) Saturday we're going to Disney for the Star Wars Weekend...I'm sure it'll be a zoo, but Rooster has wanted to go for years and the timing was never right for us to come down from NY for it (since school is still in session at that time). Now that we're close, we can run up there for the day...so he's got his Jedi robe and lightsaber all ready and is really excited about it. Heading out in a minute to take him to school, but I'll be back on and off... Have a great day everyone!

Good Afternoon Jo Jo,
Yes my first paycheck is going to feel wonderful! No more having to fight with unemployment and being able to go to work, makes me feel like I am wanted again. Everyone at the hotel is so helpful and nice. I finished my five day training session in two days and the supervisors cannot believe how fast I am learning. Tomorrow, I get to continue transferring calls on the PBX system and sometime tomorrow, they are going to put me on the phones. Let me know if you all want to meet up for dinner again..Disney is about a fifteen minute drive from my house and I get off from work at 2:30pm that day. Hope you all are having a wonderful day!

Good Morning Everyone,
Hope you all slept well and have a wonderful start to your day! We are having a Spanish potluck today at work for the Cinco de Mayo holiday. I am going to be overwhelmed with sweets and other food. Have a wonderful day and the coffee is on! Zimmy

Good Morning scoote and Jo,
Nods.. I can understand that scoot.. your work ethic will remain.. however, given your back injury .. how you maintain that work ethic is going to change alot. I went through the same thing. You will learn to adjust though.. as hard as that might be. It will be harder though, as you said when you have employees do not already tow the line like they should. When they see you in a roll that is different.. (because of the injury).. they are going to try to take advantage of that (some may).. you will need to just learn ways of dealing with it . . and let them know regardless of your injury.. your work ethic and what you expect of them has not changed. Moreso, you will be asking them to step up more because you are not going to be able to do alot of the physical things you used to do. It would be good just to have a sit down meeting with them... and explain the whole scenario.. and hope for the best. It could definately be a worker's comp thing when it comes to the ortho. I am also with you.. given I went through it.. it is the neuro that is going to serve you best. I disc going like that is neurological not orthopedic. You may have to do some serious advocating for yourself with whoever you deal with at the worker's comp office.. because if they take you down that path it is going to end up doing you more harm than good.. when it comes to healing from your injury. The spine is just nothing to be playing with. Always, keeping you in My meditations. I hope you get some good news today. Let Me know what happens. Thank you Jo for the kind words. He was a wonderful guy. I have known him since I was in My 20's. I had not seen him in recently.. as I do not go to the clubs now. The last time I saw him was for Pride a couple of years ago. Just a shame really.. they still have no motive for why the kid did it. Well, I hope you are both having a peaceful day.. thinking of you both.. always.. good luck again scoot.. let Me know how it goes. Waves to Ms. Snow, Zimmy, Tommi, violane.. and anyone else I missed. Leaves some..  and Have a good Thursday everyone. As Always, Jake Quote:

Cant help but love her
 Jake...thanks for your words...it will be difficult,but luckily most of the employees know what a bitch i can be if need be and they know my standards so hopefully they wont be too difficult,but shall see...about half are beggingme to come back now the other half is probably dreading it bc they know their screwing around days will be over....Changing is gonna be the most difficult thing for me,bc im not one to keep repeating myself plus when i get stressed or upset i tend to push harder than i should...i just dont understand laziness and stupidity --esp in job i have 6th graders do at times..i got Jo going with me today bc she is pushier than i am...so if the ortho sends me don the wrong path and i dont object enough i have no doubt she will...lol...did i mention she is pushy i hope you are doing well after your recent loss...u have been in my thoughts daily...and thank you for always lending a kind word and being encouraging where needed *smiles* Zimmy do you all realize Cinco de Mayo was 2 weeks ago  anyway enjoy your potluck and glad job is going so wellwaves to Snow and Grant up north of us! hope you all are enjoying the day. ok i better get before Jo starts pushing ME around...lol have a great day all |

Good Evening Scoote,
The Cinco de Mayo party was fun! I watched how food I ate, since my job has us sitting down all day! I got my schedule today, I'm off on Saturday and then I start working until 9pm or 11pm. My oldest niece and nephew are coming down this Saturday! I'm excited that I get too see them again. How was your day? Zimmy Quote:

Hello everyone
We had a long, fun day at Disney yesterday for Star Wars weekend. The Rooster has wanted to go for years, but we were never able since it was bad timing for the NY school schedule. Now that we're closer, we can just run up for the day so it was much easier. He had a blast (so did I )...and we did all the usual Disney stuff...walked too much, ate too much, spent too much....we also rode the new Star Tours ride (3 times for him, 2 times for me, once for Scoote), did the Toy Story arcade ride (my favorite) and more.Now we're relaxing, waiting for pizza to arrive...the Rooster has his girlfriend over (she's cute as a bug and as nerdy as he is)...they'll be going swimming later since it's a gorgeous day and the pool is nice and warm. I had a call this morning from a friend of my mother's...seems she had another bad episode and is on her way (via ambulance) to be checked into the hospital. I ended up having to call my sister to alert her (another long story) even though we haven't spoken in a year and I would have preferred to have that be a permanent arrangement. The best news of the day...after waking up at 6:30 a.m. and laying awake for an hour...I ended up falling back asleep and snoozing until 10:30....magnificent. Hope you're all having a wonderful day.

Good Morning Everyone,
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I had everyone at work lastnight telling me how well, I was doing on the phone system. My supervisor is going to let me do everything by myself tonight and I am looking forward to it. I also found out, that I was hired for the second shift, so I will now be working from 2:30pm to 11pm after this week. I am thinking of French Toast for breakfast this morning? What do you all think... Have a good day, I am off to run some errands before I go to work. Zimmy

Good Afternoon Everyone,
I came home and took a nap after going to the Apple store. They had to restore my iPhone, so now the only number I have is my mom's. The guy there said that should fix the problems that I have been having; if not, my iPhone will have to be replaced again. Thank you for the cinnamon rolls JoJo! Have a good day, Zimmy

Good Morning Everyone,
It has been a hectic last few days for me. I went on a job interview and was told, since I couldn't give them a set schedule, they couldn't hire me. It was a waste of my time and a waste of the recruiter's time for me to go there. Another reason as to why I don't like working in retail. I now work the 2nd shift and I am enjoying it! Matt and I have been looking at apartments and w found one that has covered parking instead of parking garages. It is in our budget and I am hoping we can get it. I spent most of the day on Thursday visiting with my mom, oldest niece and two nephews. My oldest niece loves to cross stitch and crochet. Now I know what she likes and what I can get her for her birthday... I am thinking of Pancakes with fresh fruit, coffee and plenty of juice for breakfast! Happy Memorial Day Weekend to all of you! Zimmy
