    True I love walking in the rain in the summer time....as long as there is no lighting. 

    Candie, congrats on the clear mammo.  I had an US on Mon. and I'm worried because my dr. wants to see me next Mon. to talk about it and my blood tests. 

    The next person is going to open med. bills.  I am and it is not fun.  One feels pretty darn thick.....got to be a big one.

    Everyone,  Thanks for the warm wishes on my new job.  It is only part time, but the boss told me when I interviewed yesterday that it would probably be four days a week!  I wasn't looking for that much.  It is a little shop in town, and it is very expensive!  It is what they call a 'tourist trap', I guess.  They have some designer type clothes, and upstairs, there is a whole floor of decorating stuff for the house.  I am thinking maybe I made a mistake by taking this job... I don't even know how much it pays, and I am just feeling kind of nervous, and all twisted up about it.  I don't like the idea of not having any FREE time, when I can do whatever I want. 


    As far as what my duties will be, Guggerty, I am not sure, but I guess I'll do a bit of everything.  I'll be working the cash register, moving the clothing and houseware products from place to place, taking the stuff in and arranging it when it comes in from the supplier, all kinds of stuff like that.  I wish I was more excited about it, but I really am not feeling too happy about it at all.  I have never worked in a store, and retail... you have to work most weekends... I only ever worked in an office, and I am much more comfortable typing a memo, answering a busy switchboard, greeting visitors, sorting mail... you know, that kind of crap.  I guess I'm more conflicted about this p/t job than I thought I was.  I may not be around on the boards as much, since I may be working more than I'd like.
     

    The dentist went ok, I guess.  Thanks for asking, Miss S!  Oh, takingcare, I don't know if I ever saw that commercial!  I was afraid to look at the dentist, so I kept my eyes closed the entire time he was in the room!

    My brown tooth was just stained, and the dentist buffed it out with pumice.  But, he also filled a cavity in the tooth NEXT to it...  He gave me a bunch of shots of Novacaine, which helped to numb the area, but ... OUCH!  Those shots HURT!  It was also very expensive!  The dentist charged me $246.00 for just filling a tooth, and buffing the other one out.  I will have to go back for a cleaning  and probably x-rays too, in July. 

    Sorry for writing a book here.... 

    ... I like to walk in the rain, if it is SO TERRIBLY hot, in the summer.

    True, I talk baby talk to my cats... they seem to like it!  I also say this to every dog or cat I see, at friends houses, when I am visiting:

    "You're SO PRETTY!"  in a singsong voice... They LOVE it!  I know, I am a nut!

    The next person keeps a diary.  I don't, but always thought I should.

    MissShapen Member Posts: 3,963

    True! I used to do that when I was growing up. I would sit on the front porch in the glider and cover up with a quilt and enjoy the sounds of the rain hitting the roof and the smell of the earth.

    True, I have a diary. I actually have an online journal that I've been keeping since 2000.

    Candie:  Everyone is congratulating you on a clear mammo but you didn't get your results yet, correct?  You just did it yesterday?  I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that it's clear. 

    Harley:  You may end up liking the job - I hope!  Retail is tough but the shop sounds like a fun place and you'll meet people from all over - that has to be more fun than something like Office Max.  I wonder if the economy will affect sales there.  Aren't you glad to get the dentist visit over with??

    TC:  When do you leave for Hawaii?  We went once back in the 80's - beautiful.

    I love rain and love those days where you can't tell if it's 10am or 4pm - of course I don't want them everyday, just occassionally.

    False on liking the black and white movies - I'm more into the talkies and the ones with color!  I do love old muscials tho.

    Guggerty:


    Thanks for the warm wishes for the sucky new job.  I MAY end up liking it, but I'm not too sure.  Yes, I'm glad to get the dentist over with, but I sure can't afford to go back and see him again... ever, I think...  this new job won't pay THAT much!!  lol

    It remains to be seen, whether I like my job.  What do you do, Guggerty?
