I am infamous at the sleep clinic! Honestly. I took the pills. Then the next second I woke up and it was morning. Just like that. No memory of any of it. Like an alcoholic black out.

Oh wow that is too bad I wish you luck and yes it is unprofessional that they said anything about your status as a patient in a sleep clinic. They are definitely going to test you again!! There must be something going on there...good luck

I was thinking that if I weren't as sick as I am,
that I would steal the gorgeous SD-
and run away from home for some girl time.

What the future may or may not hold.

I know what I want, but it's not only my decision. So.

I just wish the various doctors taking care of my dad would talk with each other and give the family consistent information. So many doctors, so many conflicting messages. It is difficult to know who to listen to and what to do.

This is disgusting. Absolutely heartbreakingly disgusting.

I was reading an article about Libby, Montana today and the asbestos poisoning that's been going on for generations there. So sad. So very sad that no one, not the plant in charge (Grace), not the medical community (except for 3 (THREE!) EPA agents) and not the government has helped them willingly until just recently.

You think you can trust people, the ones that smile in your face but then you find out you have to "be careful" what you tell them. I think that's lame.

Miss Scarlett · 12-02-2010, 05:23 AM

Am completely stressed out this morning - likely a product of my own imagination.

Why am I stressed? Next week I will be on vacation. This is my first actual vacation from work in about 5 years. My last 2 vacations were tied in with losing my job either immediately before or shortly after my return. Both times my job was being eliminated - because one firm was closing and the other decided to move away from my area of expertise.

My current boss has gone through many assistants over the last few years. I have been there for 1 1/2 years and can do far more than past assistants. But I am far from perfect. No major screw ups but minor errors and mistakes - some from ignorance or lack of clairvoyant abilities, and others from my lack of diligence. But my work is not behind and I have been double and triple checking everything to make sure nothing that she needs next week is left undone.

My boss is not much of a communicator and I am not much of a mind reader. I hope to talk with her today, confirm my time off next week and see if there is anything else she needs me to do before the end of this week.

I'm fighting this stress and trying to keep it from having a negative effect on my job performance, but it is very distracting.

I wish I could talk with my Mom about it - this is adding to my stress too.

Jeez!

Totally agree with you. I learned this lesson may years ago and have the occasional "refresher course"; often after letting my guard down.

Good morning Miss S
Glad you were at least able to write about it here.

Is it that fear of the unknown grabbing you by the throat due to being shot at in the past? Is a zinger going to hit me when I am not looking, if I don't have my radar on?

Being a past survivor of many wars, battles, and just misunderstandings I say two things to myself.

1. I am only in control of Myself, and my thinking. I cannot control what others think or do (They). What can I do is be the best I can and undo this garbage thinking.

2. This is the moment of a new day. It is not the day and time that something horrible happened in the past. I can breathe in and out on my own, and stop thinking about what THEY may be or do.

I miss my Mom too, so come here to chat with ya'll.

RIP Mickey Mom

Sorry that you are still having to deal with this Boss From Hell!!! I bolded a part of your note here and it is very telling. It tells me something about a person I do not even know. It tells me she can't keep employees. Probably has trouble keeping friends too.

No one is perfect!!!! Everyone makes mistakes from time to time. I strongly feel the problem is not your or your performance. I feel she is the one with the major problem. I hand it to you for sticking around this long.

I think if she was thinking about firing you she would have done it a long time ago. So don't worry!!!!! And Tommi is so right!!! Have a great vacation. You deserve it. Most certainly you EARNED it working with her!!! Hang in there sweetie!!!

My sister telling me she is going to move to TX to be with a boy. A boy who has been in jail once already. She's looking at going to a college down there that isn't near enough to walk to (she has no vehicle and it's 22 miles away), and she has no job or money right now.

I don't like this idea, but it's her life, and if she's like me, she's stubborn and won't let anyone change her mind.

Ah oh!!!! Not a good move on her part!!!! Perhaps you could sit her down and get her to make a Pro Con List and discuss it? How will she live with no job and no money? And the guy doesn't sound too reliable. I hope she changes her mind.

My sister did the same thing; moved from NC to Chicago with a man she had not actually met face to face and took her twelve year old daughter with her. I begged her not to do this. I even offered to pay for a plane ticket back for them both when it started going south. She stayed there with him for two years until he was caught peeking in her then 14 yr old daughter's bedroom window. That did it.

Good luck to her!

My sister has met him - he lived here for awhile. When they were 15 he stole a gun from his grandparents and pulled it out on some guys that had teased him, while my sister was with him! He was in jail beginning of this year for stealing and she told him no more.

I think she intends to move in with him and work down there and get her dental assistant diploma via financial aid. I know she wants out of our parents house and that's part of the reason why she doesn't want to stay living with them (aside from the fact that they are moving into the country and about an hour North of where they live already). I moved out when I was 18 with the person I was dating to get away from my family as well. I'd hoped it'd changed, but I guess not.

I can try and get her to think about this more but we'll see. She's only 17

If nothing else, she should of learned from my multiple mistakes when I was that age.
