I'm a kind hearted, patient woman. I'm easy to get along with and can get bitchy if you push the right buttons (or if I forget to take the right pills when I get up in the morning).

Opportunity arising?!?

So I thought I'd try out another colour today. It seemed like an ugly colour when I was choosing it but it looks alright to print in.

Its so boring here at work.

-We had a staff meeting yesterday and found out about the xmas partay and xmas lunch gathering. The party is not restricted to just my branch (consisting of 10 ppl) but the whole ministry (which is like many floors of ppl--i dunno how many of us). Its on Dec. 15th (dunno bout location yet) and its like $20-$25. I wanna attend it, so if anyone would like to be my escort please volunteer, I will be looking for someone to come with me later on as the date comes closer. I also found out that we're having a gift x-change here on the 22nd.

-I dunno whether I'll be staying here or not. My contract is up on Nov 1st, but the assistant executive director says that things are looking ok and that its expected that I won't be leaving so my fingers are crossed. I had applied for another job yesterday thinking that I may not be able to stay here. Its another records position. Its a lil better pay (i'd be on salary rather than wages) and get more of a workload. Not that I don't like it here, but its been 6 mos and i'm on wages (aka contract) with no benefits. Its been great getting the experience but I also want something long-term, that a bit more reliable. I had even thought about going back to school and picking up a trade, but I don't like the cold weather so it would be pointless.

-that other part-time job that I had applied for (to work in a flower shop), they haven't responded back to me. Not that i'm surprised or am anxiously waiting to hear from them. But I thought it would have been a great opportunity. So I am back to hunting for a part-time gig. Kudos to mz. maggie for trying to find stuff in the health industry for me. I've checked out a few postings on capitalheath.ca.

Mz. maggie, i missed out on Spa ball last night. I wanted to go but with my body sayin no I didn't. I think my body is up for a trip tomorrow if you still wanna go. And I checked the Yeller pages yesterday: the spa pkg's are kinda pricy. The ones that I checked online anyways. I think we might have to skip out on it this year and just get manicures.

I am getting better. I'm battling out this sickness and it started to lift yesterday. I've been told that I sound better and that i've got more colour and brightness in me (since this past weekend).

Damn you mr mattie. You weren't supposed to buy Scrubs season 4 yet. Oh well, what's done is done. Could I borrow it? I'd like to watch it.

I don't think i'll be handing out candies to the lil kiddies this year for halloween. Pops has gotta go into the hospital on the 31st, and with how excited my puppies get from ppl on the street (let alone comming to the door), i don't think its gonna be a great idea. I'll still dress up though, I love to look pretty in my costume.....time to dig out that angel costume.

I'm finally catching up on my soapies. I had like the whole summer's worth to watch (like 16 tapes) and now i'm down to like half of that. (The only thing that this sickness let me do whilst being quarantined to my basement).

I finished yet another book, He's Just Not That Into You by Greg Behrendt. And I tell ya, that book and the other one he wrote, Its Called a Breakup Because Its Broken, has inspired me to stand up and start kicking some dirt. I am feeling so much better about myself, and hope that the rest of this pain doesn't last for much longer. Its about time that I get back onto my own two feet and get back into the world of living and be happy about each day that passes. There's one quote that really inspired me from HJNTIY. its along the lines of: if he's really into you, no one or nothing would stop him from calling you. He'd see me as the bright spot in his day. He'd move mountains to be with me. So I just want to thank all of my friends for being so stubborn with me and helping me to see all the bad he was for me. I'm sure if he wanted me bad enough he'd change. Who knows maybe 5 years down the road he'll be back with a whole different personality or lifestyle that would better suit me. But I don't see that happening, he has had too many chances to prove himself and now its time for me to move on to bigger and better things.
