So I stop by the office last night for one last chat with Malinda & to pick up some more stuff she had in her office. Once we are all done the work stuff she gives me a pep talk about becoming the 'hero' & 'nipping things in the bud' before they become larger issues. Take for example this redline mess. There is absolutely no communication between Jeremy, Randy & myself, so with Malinda's encouragement I send out an email for all those who are concerned with the redlines to see if we can brain storm to see if we can make it more of a smoother process. So I took it upon myself to show that I am a 'team' player at Infratech although I work off site 100% of the time. I did exactly what Malinda said to do & even sent out the email that we both comprised yesterday. All is good right? This was Jeremy's response:

Lee-Ann...it's good to hear that you're finally on the right team...it has been my goal to streamline the entire drafting process since I took over management of the drafting department. It has seemed like Tom and yourself have been more keen on keeping the status quo as opposed to providing any input, as to how to better streamline the process. I've discussed these issues with Dan already regarding changes that we've been "attempting" to implement, but in order for anything to change, or for any system to get streamlined, all involved parties need to buy into the system.
I'll advise later today on wether or not a meeting of the minds will work for us on July 7th.

Like WTF? I have not heard from this guy since May 22nd when he told me:

I think what we would like to do for the time being, is to basically assume that you're going to do no drafting, Aside from emergency, (I need you to make this change right now) kind of work.

Guess I am damned if I do damned if I don't. So who knows what the hell I am supposed to do. He just made me out to not being a team player & sent that note to Dan. So did it blow up in my face? I won't know until the 7th. But I tell you at that meeting I am not going to say a word. Let them do whatever they like. I will just keep doing what it is I do, who knows what that is lately.

What a week this week has been and it is only Wednesday. Oh the dreaded Wednesday, weigh in day. I hope the scale is kind as I was pretty good all week. Only one day did I go way over my points. But we will see come 6:30

I get Friday off this week from the full time job to go to a Dr. appointment. It is that yearly yucky one I just hate. Then I get to go pay my down payment on my cruise. Yippee!! Next week is just one screwy week. I took the Monday as a vacation day, Tuesday is the July 1st stat holiday, Wednesday & Thursday I have my first aid course then Friday I am off to the city to see that ankle & foot guy. Can't wait to sleep in for a few days. And to top it all off Jason is on holidays next week & Tim will probably be in Red Earth so I will have the house to myself. Ahh bliss.

I am pretty sore today, I helped put the grocery order away last night & my shoulder sure hurts. I hope to go swimming so that I can sit & soak in the hot tub with this shoulder. Oh we will see. Maybe I will go anyway without Marci. She seems to be very aloof about going. Oh well I will just have to bite the bullet & go alone.

My sister pissed me off last night. Said that it must be nice to be rich. Like where did that come from & I am far from being rich. Mike makes damn good money & now she is getting the CCP so I don't know what her problem is. Just because I chose to go on a well deserved vacation with my money instead of spending it all on frivolous stuff like she does doesn't mean I am rich. She should think before she opens her yap. But it was the perfect ending to an all round shitty day thank GOD it is over.

Well my work isn't getting done any faster with me writing on here. So I am off....

Well I weighed myself this morning. 2 days late from last Monday when I started the Wendie plan. According to my scale I am at 279.0 where last Monday I was 281.2 so theoretically I should be down at weigh in tonight. I am really keeping my fingers crossed for this one.

I am quite tired today, again didn't get to sleep until like 1:30 in the morning. I do hate when that happens. I hope to go for a walk tonight so that the fresh air will knock me out. I tentatively booked my cruise this morning. Just waiting now to see how much of a down payment they want/need. I have quite a lot in tips saved and I get paid on Friday so we will see. Once I start paying on it then the reality will set in. I must pick up my prescription tonight as well. Gotta have them wake me ups.

Well time to get back to work. Again.

Guess I was unable to edit the previous blog, then this weekend was a joke. Shauna the front desk manager quit on Saturday, Trudy the general manager's mother in law passed on and I had to work an extra 3 hours Sunday morning. Then Pam called me Saturday night wanting to know if I wanted to work her shift on Sunday night and because I told her if she needed me to I felt obligated to do it. So tonight will be day 6 of 6 at Pizza Delight. My July schedule doesn't look much better either.

Jason is pissed at me too but who cares. Couldn't sleep last night because he was snoring so loud that I went out on the couch finally at 1:30am. Then at 4:30 there was quite the light show and pouring rain. Like wholly when is this flippin rain going to quit. I hope soon.

Tomorrow is weigh in day at weight watchers. I am hoping for a loss again this week. Got to be really good today and tomorrow so that maybe it will happen. I am deciding whether to join another challenge from July to Sept. That is an awful long time and I am not sure if I would be able to stay motivated. But I will think on it more as it is the summer and I can walk lots in July according to my work schedule.

Well my sister got her CCP decision. She will get about $9000 back pay and $650 a month. That is just great for a person who gambles. But who am I to talk. I went through enough the past two days to choke a horse. So on Thursday I am not going to gamble just go for supper. Enough is enough.

Well I am going to sign off incase I get kicked off due to the blocks. I am still amazed I can still access this from work. Later....

We get to go home early today according to the boss. Like right on, & we had a BBQ to boot. Life can't get any better. Well it could, I could win a million but...well maybe I do have a ticket for tonights draw. Another long day today all 3 jobs but that is ok. Still not quite sure what is going on at the hotel & I get paid from there today. It will be interesting to see if I got that raise or not. Ahh I am not worried I really don't care much anymore about it.

Another full week then 2 short ones here at the full time job. And what's with their security today, I can actually get on here. But I am going to go and see if I will be able to edit this later.

A good day today

5.8 thats right, five point eight. That is what I lost in 3 weeks. Can you believe it? I sure can't but hey I am extatic about it. My spelling is bad but who cares. Then we took Malinda out for supper I had chilli & a salad but had cheesecake for dessert. That is ok though I will get it off I am determined to do it so I will. Went back to the casino after I dropped the ladies off. I came home with $350 which is great. I brought all my tips so that was $325 so I am happy with the win. Basically the gift we got Malinda, & my part of supper are all covered. I really didn't spend a cent. I think I am actually up like $5, that is if I give Eleanor back the $25 she gave me for the gift.

Steve is going to bring the futon & computer desk to Whitecourt for me. OH YAH! Things are looking up. I will have to cancel the hotel room as I won't need it now & just give Steve $100 & fill his tank. What a relief. Oh how I love my kids friends. LOL. Two more weeks & my boy will be home for the weekend. I can't wait. And I will get the Saturday off all day & night.

Although I am tired & should go to bed I don't feel like it. I am going to put like $300 on my VISA, with my winnings & my hotel check. I don't have to use my ING account to pay my VISA as I don't have to go to Calgary now, yipee!! Alex still thinks that he will get my car. I will have to see about that. Maybe just until Sept as I really don't want him to drive it in the winter. I can't afford the insurance if he gets into an accident.

Anyway, it is off to watch the news then to bed I guess. Oiy I would rather sleep on the damn couch.

Another post in a week well wholly crap. But I have to wait until midnight to post like what is up with that. Jason has been drinking tonight & came up and picked me up at work. Not the thing to do especially when you don't have insurance on your vehicle. Now he wants me to go to bed, not likely that will happen I will probably end up on the couch for the first time this week. He keeps going into Tim's room & that is driving me nuts.

Anywho, it is another week & another WI. I am going to go tonight to the meeting & to weigh in. I have been following the Wendie Plan since Monday. I know I won't lose much if any this week. I just want to undo what those pills did to me 2 weeks in a row.

Eleanor & I are taking Malinda to the casino for supper tomorrow night. I can't wait. Maybe one night away will be good for me. Jason has informed me that we are taking Owen to Hinton on Sunday which I am still up in the air about. He is just going to torment the dog. But who knows. Sunday is a long way away yet we may not even go. I will have to call Marion tomorrow to see if she is going to have company or not.

Well I got some more work on my database to do before I hit the hay. So here's to another day in the life....

Wow my last post was Monday. Well I guess that is what happens when someone is always looking over your shoulder ever time you type.

I didn't get to my WI this week at weight watchers as I didn't want to get down on myself for another gain. This week will be the same but I am going. I am starting the Wendie Plan on Monday so that may help me out. I am totally off the codeine and I have decided not to take the anti inflammatorie's any more. I go for my yearly on the 27th and I want to be 'drug' free as it is put.

I finally sent my computer away to get the DVD drive fixed on Wednesday. Tim is being so kind as to letting me use his in the mean time. Not sure if he is going out east or not as it is next week or wait another month. His decision I guess.

The hotel issue I think is far from over as Grace asked me tonight when I can work after the 5th of July. Like make up my mind would she. Oh well what am I supposed to do. I want the cash to pay off my VISA right now as the pizza delight check is going to the fence.

I am off to Hinton tomorrow for groceries and to spend some time with my aunt Marion. She just had knee surgery and well I need to know how she is doing. I am bringing lunch then do my groceries there. Tim said he would come with me if he isn't going to Edmonton to catch a plane.

So until tomorrow I guess....Bon Nuit

June 2, 2008

Monday, my favorite day of the week. I got the Decals for the care and the laptop backpack on the Internet Auction. I thought I paid a pretty good price $125 for the decals and $33.50 for the backpack. Then went to the casino and lost my shirt. Oh well can't win all the time. Looks like Marci isn't going for wings now on her birthday, I kinda figured she wouldn't. Oh well that is her decision not mine.

Talking to Georgina tonight, my Avon lady and Melvin's significant other. I am trying to find out what she knows about what is going on at the hotel and she isn't saying a thing about it. So she knows what is going on and isn't telling me. Nice friends I have eh? Guess I am being shafted there. Now she is telling me that it is good I got let go as I can sleep Friday and Saturday nights now. So she knows something. Yeah time to break all ties with her. Oh well I can't be everyone's friend. I told her I wrote a letter to Trudy asking for an explanation, of which I am going to do, but I also told her I sent it to the labor board as well. Lets just see how far that will go.

Tomorrow is Tuesday, I work Pizza Delight. I am hoping that it isn't busy. But then again.....
