How Prissy Are You?

Here's mine! It fits me...

You Are a Bit Prissy

From time to time you can be a princess, but these days, who isn't a little high maintenance? You know what you want, and you're definitely not afraid to ask for it. (Just refrain from having a temper tantrum if you don't get your way!) There's nothing wrong with having high standards... as long as they're occasionally low enough to allow spontaneity and fun!

How Prissy Are You?

No News is ??? News..

OK - I readily admit that I have never been a particularly patient person. Never... So I'm having a pretty tough time right now.. Climbing the walls is more like it!

This morning my current boss came to me and told me that they had already called her this morning to check my reference for the potential new job.. I know for certain that she gave me a good reference. So I sat on pins and needles all day waiting for "the call" which never came!!! What's up with that???!!!??? What are they waiting for???

So, I will try to force the issue from my mind overnight tonight and see what happens tomorrow.

I continue to turn this whole issue over to God and His plan for my life. I cannot make it happen if it is not within His will. I cannot make it happen no matter how much I think that I want it. I keep praying over and over "Your will, not mine. Your will, not mine." I will accept what ever happens, knowing that it is all part of God's plan for me!

My (Hopefully) New Adventure!!!

I'm going to try to be a better blogger.. I really am...

I'm really a bundle of nerves these days...

I've been in my current job for 11 years. I know absolutely everything about my department and the work that we do. I am the "go to" person in our company for issues and quesitons about the work that my department does. I know everyone and like almost everyone there. I've got the greatest boss in the world, and she is an incredible role model...

But... My job itself hasn't made me very happy for over a year now.. When you think about your job, there are three categories of duties: 1) The things that you really like to do and look forward to doing. 2) The things that are okay. Not bad, not great. 3) The things that you really don't like doing and have to force yourself to do.. For the past year, more and more things are falling into the second and third categories, with fewer things going to the first bucket. It seems like every day I find myself looking at my list of things to do at work, and finding myself just thining of reaons to NOT do what is on it. That's pretty pathetic.. Many times it would save me time to just do something on the list compared to the time it takes me to find a reason to not do it. I really hate being this wasy about work.

So... Two weeks ago this super job opportunity just fell out of the sky. I wasn't doing any sort of active job search, but the opening came across my email and I knew that it was perfect for me. So I applied.. And they called me for a phone interview.. Then a face-to-face interview.. And I'm pretty sure that I will get an offer very soon..

I'm excited..

And terrified..

Poor, depressed doggy... This is Millie, the dog who is deathly afraid of storms, rain, wind, etc.... She was rather upset on Christmas morning because she didn't get to open anything...








My and little boy hanging out in the recliner. We do this a lot!

Finally!! New Pics!!!

Yes, I still use a "regular" camera with "regular" film. Therefore, I have to take my "regular" film to Walgreen's to get it developed, and sometimes my picutres are out-of-date when I get them!!! And yes, we do have a nice digital camera that my hubby uses a lot... But do I ever get to see those pictures/??? NOOOOOO!!!! He never gets around to downloading them or printing them... Therefore, I am sharing MY pictures!!!

This was taken right before Christmas in downtown Knoxville.









And here's another one the same night. We had fun!













Christmas Eve at my house. Our happy little family!













Yes, this Oreo cake was completely WW friendly!!! NOT!!!
