Sweet Interruptions ♥♥ 204 ♥♥

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

$15,000... It will take more than that to go to court! Pretty sad!

Morning everyone! Coffee is on. Lots of OJ here. I am nursing a bad head cold and sore throat! Lots of lemon tea, and vitamin C also!

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

LOL Susan, you don't want me helping you sew! You think you have a mess now LOL

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

LOL Crissy - I'm sure we couldn't both fit in my sewing/computer/den - I've already moved my ironing board to the kitchen!

I got a "heads-up" about another job - Accounts Payable Analyst - suggested by someone at our church. His wife got a job for my DH in 2008, so I guess it's a family-thing on both sides LOL
I'm going to give it a try!

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Good luck Susan! Keeping all fingers and toes crossed!

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

Thanks Linda!! (btw - when you uncross them, don't stand up or type right away LOL your feet and fingers must be cramped up by now) !!!! LOL

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

LOL! ^_^

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

I just sent in my resume, cover letter, and transcript of marks for the Accounts Payable Analyst position. Now, we'll see what happens.......

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

There you go Susan! If it's anything up there like it is down there you'll have good interviews, seconds, even thirds, then nothing because people don't want to hire unless they can pay bare bones right now, which all of these people with experience aren't going to take bare bones because they've never had to before.

LOL!!!!!

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

Crissy - I asked for only $5k higher at the Exec Admin interview than I got at my last job, and it was a lower classification!! I know it's not the wage.........

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

For those of you that knew Kris/Elf. She posted on facebook, that she lost her Mother yesterday! This is her post...

"I would like to thank all my facebook friends and Daves Garden Friend who prayed for my mom. She passed quietly in her sleep this morning at 12:30 am PST. She was in a coma since Friday and so did not suffer and she is now in a much better world."

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

((((Kris)))))) poor lady - Her mom's across the Rainbow Bridge now, and is at peace.
Kris has had quite a year this year..........
I followed her exploits with her grands making the fairy garden, and then when her a/c burned! and she's had a few health issues, too...... I'll have to pop onto FB and have a wee comment for her......

(Chris) Des Moines, IA(Zone 5a)

For those who want to send a card..her address is still in the exchange

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

Cool, I think I have a card that would be perfect around here somewhere... Thanks for letting us know LK. Lots of prayers are going out.

Well that's not too much over I don't think Susan, unless the low ball the wage to begin with, and if they do you wouldn't know it.

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

no, Crissy - it's not over, cuz the position is a step higher than I last did, however I've done all of the items they need for this job, in previous jobs. I've ordered limousines for out-of-town dignitaries, created powerpoint presentations for physicians medical reports, etc etc etc - things that Executive Assistants do.......

hey folks
your all in my T&P sorry to be MIA and not posting much, busy busy
got a bunch of tree's to dig today
uhg yes i will tell you the story later or maybe Cookie can fill you in ..... i didn't think it through enough on these big big plants i got.
and what size holes i need to dig !! duh

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

What I'm saying Susan is Dave applied for a buyer position that pays 40- 60k a year. The asked him what his salary requirements are, he has 20+ years experience so he should make 60k a year BUT because the economy is the way it is he said 40k. They Low Balled the wage and hired someone to do that job at 25k. I'm hoping they don't do that to you.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Morning everyone! Coffee is on!
Sue, don't over do it with the digging holes please?

Crissy, sorry to hear hubby did not get the job! $25K is not much for a job like that!

Susan, sure hope you hear something soon for a job! You too Cookie!

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

No it isn't. I told him to not low ball himself like that, let them get the poor kid who doesn't have a clue that he's being low balled.

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

Good morning,everyone - coffee's on, and there's blueberry and raisin/oatmeal muffins for you, over here !! ^_^

Sue - be careful on your back with those trees!!

Crissy - that's an Awful wage - from $60k as a high to low-ball $25k???????? Yikes - well Dave is certainly worth more than that.
I realize the US has a recession going on, but thankfully ours isn't as bad, and the wages are staying true-to-form. We're bouncing back a bit........ not fully though cuz people are still nervous and I'm not sure where that's taking us.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Anyone heard from Jaye?

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

LK - I've spoken to Jaye, and she asked if I would help look after the room, cuz she's travelling right now. Sorry - thought I mentioned that - she sends her love to everyone!!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

I just got a call from my youngest son, his girlfreind Heather just lost her baby! She was 11 weeks along! Dr, just said it was not meant to be! Not a good year for the babies in our family!

If that's true, then why did my big brother smack me all the time? I'm Adorable, and always have been (oh - and Cute, too!!

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Thanks everyone!

I am off to bed, hopefully this darn cough will stop long enough for me to get to sleep!

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

(bestest fairy)Tempe, MI(Zone 5b)

Sending gentle hugs LK for you to pass on to Heather and Andy. I'm so sorry....

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

oh lk, i am so sorry. prayers being sent

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Thanks so much for all the thoughts, prayers and hugs! This will be the 2nd child she has lost. Her first child was a boy. she gave birth, and he lived to be about 6 months, but he was born with so many birth defect, so it was a blessing that he passed. Now I pray she can cope with this one!

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

WOW LK, I am so sorry!!!

Sue, lol, you are too funny!

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

LK - that is tragic...... poor girl! I hope her Dr can pinpoint why she's having these problems with babies........I can't begin to say how sorry I'm feeling, and I don't know how she's dealing with this - The closest I've come to someone losing their baby was my sister when I was only 12 (SIDS). Anything I could say to Heather & Andy would be inadequate as I can't speak from experience, but know that they're in my thoughts & prayers......

LK i m sorry for this young girls losses. Sending many many T&P for them
LOL yes it is funny today. thursday not so funny LOL
Susan i know my bro smacked me around also ??? go figure on that. I was darn cute then and still am ! ? huh go figure ?
