It's Been Ordered - GET OFF MY BACK!

Well, I did it- or he did it. "We" ordered internet - but it can't be installed for another two weeks. (Isn't it funny how when he does something, we (ladies) say "WE" did it?)

As it turns out when you live in a new home, new construction that is, everything take longer to get hooked up.

I thought I would have had internet in the house by now, but we have cell phones and didn't want to have to get a land line just to get service so we took a while to shop. We got a rockin deal on some wireless and some serious fast internet shit. OR so they say. I won't know for two weeks. What I am really freakin excited about is laying in bed, watching TV and also surfing the net (or BLOGGING) at the same time.

So that's it. My excuse for setting up this blog and not being faithful to it. I will get better, I promise.

So ..... update on my employment status.... I am the official Purchasing Specialist who works two days a week for the same place I worked for the past 3.5 years. This is exciting for me, but at the same time a tad frustrating. I loved my job until last year when it got to be too much for one person to do. I complained, or whined and nothing happened. Now that I quit, they realized that it may be too much for one person and added a whole new position. I was heard, but it took me quitting first.

I am home all the other days cleaning and sorting through boxes. Yew Haw. The first few days I was so overwhelmed I ran in circles not completing anything. The moment I gave up and sat on my ass in front of the TV to watch some divorce court, my mom came waltzing in. I want her to feel comfortable to waltz - just not to catch me doing anything I am embarrassed of. Should I set some house rules for my mother??? Reminds me of my bedroom door = privacy rule when I was a teenager, but that never stood up either.

Being back in my home town makes me reminisce of high school. I have ran into old school mates, some good memories, some funny and some I hope have been forgotten by all others. I got snubbed by some classmates the other day. They acted like they didn't see me and walked right past me. Screw em. My daughter plays softball with theirs, but MINE IS WAY BETTER! Of course she is, I was her coach - up until now.

That brings me to that.... softball. I am so bummed. I used to coach my daughter's team where we lived before. I love coaching. Now that I work part time I wanted to continue, but it seems the softball situation in our small town is completely taken care of by a guy and his daughters. They don't seem like they have the need for more coaches. I can't tell. I have offered many times, but haven't been taken up on the offer, so I am backing off. I should get back into playing myself, but we (husband and I) don't want to drive into the city all the time just yet. I am thinking of playing on a kickball league.

ok, I need to get to work and go home. I am catching a cold - stuffy head and sore throat. I took some meds this morning that cleared my nose, but also completely CLEARED my head. I felt like a airhead all day. Couldn't focus. As soon as the meds wore off, my throat started to scratch and I sound like I smoke 2 packs a day.

Later Gators..... until next week or sooner. or later. who freakn knows.

Wow, your mom finally came to your house? All it took was you moving minutes away from her. :)

Who were the classmates? Tell me so I can hate them too. I'm very curious who the snobbysnobs were. And, ick.
