Well, it is Thursday. Today is the day I input time into our system. Unfortunately, I will be at another secretary's desk all morning and I cannot print out the time sheets that are all emailed to me (internal secure)at that desk. So, before I run upstairs, I will be printing alot at my desk.

Good news, a position has opened in DC that is same as what I did in St. Louis, MO only it is face to face with customers instead of phone customers. I have done some face to face as back up to the office cadre, many moons ago, but some things never change. It would lead to a promotion eventually. But it is better than being a "round peg in a square hole." My manager sees me as misaligned in this job, so he is willing to work with me to get me to a place where the job and I match.

On the weather front, it poured here last night, and more rain is expected today and tomorrow. At least it had the good sense to wait until I was home-so was my husband. When I was younger-even into my 30s I never minded getting wet in warm weather rain. As I have aged, I find I have become like a cat-hate the rain falling on me. I like water to drink, bathe, and swim but not falling from the skies. Anyone else have that type of change?

One nice thing about sitting at another secretary's desk is that since my work is restricted, I get time to read lots of blogs-only certain sites. Networking sites such as facebook are not accessible, by journalscapes are. Yesterday I was reading babs_sad. Some of her problems are heart rendering. She appears to be getting stronger, her family history actually works against her. At least, she learned from her parents mistakes. Part of me really hopes she gets more counseling than AAA. What bothers is her accepting that she has to accept everyone else's bs. I am not done with her blog, so I hope things improve. I do read growth in her journal. I hope those reading mine see the same type of growth-although I have 20 years on her. As the daughter of someone who did not recognize the signs of an addictive personality (he didn't get drunk all the time so he wasn't an alcoholic) I have to watch the signs in my own person. I learned that when I was in my 20s. Thankfully, I did.
