It has been one hell of a ride the past 5 days. There is the whole sick Dad thing (BTW, off the respirator and doing really well!) and then there was the my car died thing. Two big negatives. The positives:
1. My Dad will be fine and is now a non-smoker
2. dead car meant I had to get new car and boy did I ever get a new one (pictures to follow in next post). My other half, Tara, and I got a 2008 Ford Escape XLT with lots of shiny buttons and toys!!!!! It is an amazing, wonderful, stupendous vehicle.
3. I've had 2 sets of job interviews, both for positions in North Carolina - one with my current company and one with a new one. All interviews have gone well.
4. I may have a chance to be promoted to a coordinator if all else fails and stay here in Erie
Like I said, up and down but a lot more positive than negative.

Sounds like you've had a lot of changes in your life recently. Hopefully things will take a better turn in the coming days. Glad to hear that your dad is now a non-smoker. A nasty habit. I know, I used to do it myself. Best of luck to him and you!

Thanks for visiting our site.
ReplyDeleteGood news about your dad. That takes a load off of your shoulders, I'm sure.
New car! Nothing like it. Had to just make the plunge myself and since we had a truck we bought a 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Fun and good gas mileage.
