another one opens.........
So Friday May 22, I was fired for the first time in my life!!
No warning no write ups no nothing......just the boss coming in to my office and saying.....Im sorry but we just don't think this is a good fit.
Good fit????? Like I am a glove or something!?!?!?!?!? It seems that I am not a team player...........hmmmmmmmmmm
anyone and I truely mean anyone that knows me.......would say that is far from true.
I guess.....my time being a closer has come to an end. This chapter in my life...is closed.....
a new one is to be started.
I know that there is something out there better for me. I don't know what or where.....I just hope I find it soooooon. Cuz this.....there are no credit cards to help out. There is no more saving to use. There is nothing. Nothing to help.
But, I am trying to stay positive......I will find something before this week is out.
I have been getting sick more and more lately...I think this year has been rough on my entire system. So I am also fighting a horrible cold.......
Its hard some times to stay positive when there is soooooooo much negative flowing around. But I am trying. No I am not trying .......I am doing!
I will find something that I like to do. and pays well.

If that ain't da shit!! lol Funny!!
LOL , ok after yesterday I need a good laugh , and this was it , I loved it.
Can't believe its already the middle of May. The boys get out of school next week. I signed them up for day camp. That should start in June and run thru the end of July. Sean is getting so big. He has scouts, baseball and just stuff going on all the time now. He is turning into a teenager and wow are the hormones raging!! slamming doors yelling, mood swings........hmmmmm sounds like me on pms....lol
He goes from hating his dad and wanting to live with me to .....asking if he can stay the night at his dads.....I just roll with it.
Patrick...he is still finding his way. He will be 8 in a few months. He is so handsome and gonna be a ladykiller......ok so he already is one....and knows it. Yikes.
So.......at Pa's memorial I ran into an old friend. It was good to see him. Made some memories come back. I suppose I have learned so well how to put things out of my head that I tend to forget so much. But then something triggers it and it slowly starts to come back. I miss talking to ppl in the family and friends. I am terrible about staying in touch with 'em. I really don't know where my though went on this......I lost it. grrrrrrrr
So...moving on.....well my van is fixed. YaY....well from the accident that is. (my engine light is still on) ........oh yeah that was it.
So my cuz, works at a repair shop down in the city and I was telling him about my van he said I most likely got taken for a lot of money...great where was he three weeks ago..lol
So I am gonna take the van to him adn get it looked at and see what really needs to be fixed and know that i won't be taken for a ride.....
Anyways.....so van is fixed. I am starting to get the bills in from the hospital and stuff......I hope that I can settle up with the insurance company soon. It would be nice to not have to worry about paying these bills and get a little money back into my savings that I took to cover some of this.
Vic is back from his trip. Even though I dont' see him all the time and I wouldn't have seen him this weekend, I kinda missed him. It was nice that he stopped over on his way back home. He said they had a good time. He brought me back a very lovely silver and terquoise (sp) hair barrett.
Isn't it wierd how, when someone is around you don't miss them too much....and you just assume they will always be there......but then when you can't pick up the phone and talk to them you miss them so bad..
Pa is the first person I have loss and I don't know how its suppose to be......but I miss him so much. Some days more than others.....but, every day.......
I just wish I could hear his voice........
the weather was just right. A little over cast but sunny, everyone was pleasent, it was nice to see so many faces that have been gone for so long. The children all seem so grown up. My darling cuz from out of state was home.
The little chapel sits at the end of a long white gravel road with a circle drive. It looks like a big block of marble dropped in the green grass. The smoky glass doors open and inside the walls are lined with a light grayish black marble, with brass name plaques here and there some with flowers attached to a little stick on vase, some with pictures of loved ones here and gone. there are five rows of seating only seating about 5-6 people each. At the back of the chapel is a wall of black marble with names etched into the marble some had little plaques with pictures and personal items. in the middle of that wall is a little wooden alter coverd with a white runner. On top of the alter is a vase of flowers and a plant sent from loved ones that couldn't make it home, Theres a cork board with pictures of Gpa and loved ones from days gone by.....memories that pple wanted to share and bring. On one end is a photo album that has been made up for him that has letters in it from people and honors he received pictures and anyone can leave him things in it. in the middle of the table is a white marble box......very beautiful, it holds the remains of my beloved grandfather. My Uncle Frank started with a prayer and the ulagie (sp) He did quite a good job. Then came in the Air Guard sent over from the airforce. They a complete military ceremony. The folding of the flag.....I nearly cried...that is just a beautiful thing to watch. Then they presented the flag to my Grandmother. That was hard. They then walked out of the chapel and gave him a 21 gun salute followed by the playing of taps..........thats when I couldn't hold the tears back...they just seemed to stream down my face in silence. Then one of the Guard presented Grandma with three bullets for Duty Honor and Country........the tears came again.
My Grandfather gave so much to so many. He was the most wonderful person in all of my lives!
did you know that my beloved Grandfather passed away last month on the full moon.........and tomorrow.....we will be giving him his memorial.....on the full moon.....
funny how that damn moon spends soo much time in my life
So Welcome May, let it be better than April but not as good as June to come......
So far this month......its been ok. I am still working with the insurance company on trying to get my van fixed and get them to settle on my medical bills......that should be coming in soon.
This Saturday we will have the memorial for my beloved Grandfather. He will be getting the full military honors......
Which reminds me........I got a dose of reality Monday night.....
I was taking Sean to scouts and had to stop at his dads for him...the neighbor happens to be an old friend of mine from back home. Her mom is a home nurse and happend to take care of Papa years ago with one of his surgeries. So Monday night I was waiting in the car for Sean and Erin came home and said she had something for me.......she handed me the newspaper clipping (that her mom cut out of the local paper) of Pa's obituary. It had a wonderful picture of him smiling........I just started crying. It was hard to see that.

Get thee unto unemployment pronto. And, if it has been over 30 days...and I think it has..they need to provide a reason for dismissing you. And you need to find out what it is, so some shit doesn't find its way onto your work history. Believe me I have been there. These days employers know people are scrambling and if they can find someone younger, cheaper, they will get the older more experienced person out with some lame ass excuse. They sound like this is what they are doing to you. Don't let them! Call unemployment at once and get the truth.
