So.....plans anyone?

Not really. I'm just hoping to make tomorrow, because...

November 1 will be my 12.5 year anniversary with my current employer.  :D In The Netherlands, it's common to celebrate this feat (known as a copper jubilee), so there will be cake.

I am so mad.  I had the perfect title for this month's thread, but nooooooooooo, Snoz had to beat me to it.    >:( :P

And thank you too. :)

Twelve and a half years may not seem like much, but I'm very proud of myself. I only lasted 8.5 years in my previous employment. ;D

Finally got Sig to a lawyer to make out his will/power of attorney/health care proxy.  He kept putting it off, but the death of a few close friends brought it all home to him, that you never know what is going to happen.  He used to say it wouldn't matter what happened to his stuff because he'd be dead anyway, but he also said he wanted to make sure Youngone was taken care of.  I explained that unless he made out a will, Youngone would only get what his brother and sister gave him out of the kindness of their hearts, and that more than likely his niece and nephews, who are already well to do, would probably benefit most.  Epiphany!

Glad it worked.

Before my dad died he told me he wanted me to keep all the money from the sale of the house.  My brothers are both very well to do and I am pretty poor.  I told him to put it in writing.  Didn't happen and I had to split it.  My only problem with splitting it was once I divied up the money, they quit talking to me.  I haven't heard from either one in 4 years.  Jerks.

Same thing happened to a friend of mine, sort of.  She moved back home, put her life on hold, to take care of her father. He didn't make out a will, and when it came to split up everything her sister and brother agreed she should have the house, but the other brother, who was well set up, didn't agree.  It was at the height of the boom and she didn't have enough to buy him out so they had to sell.  The one brother took his share, the other two let her keep theirs.  Funny thing is the one brother who took the money was her favorite growing up.  Things change.

Got this message from Howard:
Hey Ninny glad you mailed me. just about everything is down that's why I haven't been online in days hopefully our electricity will be back by Friday maybe Monday 11/5th the latest so we'll see what happens. I do apologize and I miss the buddies a lot, give my regards and say that I'm alright I'll be back soon. Ok and take care. :)

I am so glad that none of that happened when my father died. All my sibs have really come together. There hasn't been any bickering about "stuff" or $$$. The only bickering had to do with my brother's wife & that b!tch who my dad allowed to take advantage of him. Of course my brother's wife (and my brother) thinks that she is "ALL THAT" and allowed her to get even more since he is executor of the will.  >:( >:( >:( >:(  But she is gone now-out of our lives and we never have to deal with her again.

that was very sweet of Carlos (you both) to check up on Howard...  y'all know (I think) where I work if ya ever need to check up on me... then again many of you have my cell anyway so ya could just text me! I may be stranded but I'll always have my phone....even when the zombies start chasing me!      :D

YAY!

It was so kind of you guys to check on Howard.  <3

All of this will talk has me nervous.  My dad is in the hospital and is NOT doing well.  My oldest sister Jill has Power of Attorney, but I am the one that takes care of him every single day.  I am the one who has been going to the hospital 2-3 times per day.  She hasn't been once.  And I am scared to death that she is going to manipulate it so that she gets more money than the rest of us.  She and her husband have borrowed from their 401 K so many times that it is practically nonexistent.  I simply don't trust her, but she's the oldest so of course she is in charge.  The problem I have with that, is that she has already had my dad change his will in her favor.  My other sister Alix owes Jill money, so she had my dad put in his will that whatever Alix owes Jill will automatically be deducted from Alixes share.  And I do understand that Alix owes her, but as far as I am concerned, that is between Jill and Alix.  It is Alixes responsibility to pay Jill, not my dad's.  Anyway...it's just bad.  And I know, this should probably go in the "when parents are ailing" thread but here it is.

more (((( HUGS)))))) to you Ash  :( 


You guys are making me glad I'm an only child! I am also glad that my dad's family live on the opposite coast. If my mom is alive when my dad passes then she will call his family and  tell them... if my dad outlives my mom I probably never call them when he passes... I freaking hate my dad's family!  >:(    the great consolation I have is that they are in Maryland so when he does die they won't be the house scavenging for stuff... they have done that on more than one occasion after the passing of a family member.    When my mom goes I will tell her family because they are awesome.


sadly- my parents have no real assets and there's no life insurance policy... I'm glad they have decided to donate their bodies to science so I won't have to pay for cremation... but I guess I still have to front some sort of funeral or something....geez I hope I can sell their house quickly!

Great to know!  I have been thinking of many of you a lot!!!!

Week from hell.

When I was in Az I kept thinking I'd rather be at work....I was wrong.

I came back Monday intending to work my regular 40hrs instead I had to pull 25 hrs of OT

Next week I may have to do 35hrs of OT

And I'm training a new person. Training is exhausting enough on its own.

Anyone wanna move to SB? We're hiring  ;D
I don't wanna train any more people but I'm sick of the OT so I guess training has become the new necessary evil.

I know how you feel.  3 new people for me this week.  I have to go in today just to try to catch up with my work.  Doubt it will happen though.  I need a break.

I feel for ya... hope these three work out.

Mine is brand new to Law Enforcement....which makes it more difficult because I forget how many exceptions to the rules there are....

in this situation we do this -  unless this happens then we do that....except in these cases then it's this... I thought the trainee's head was going to fall off  ;D

Just left work and found out another one is thinking of leaving.  She just isn't fast enough and the base rate is not enough.  I understand but don't like it. :(

Then again, I am thinking of looking, too.  Sick of working my butt off and still barely making it.  The no insurance thing is big for me.  I love my job but sometimes you need more.

He was. His family still doesn't have electricity. I pm'd him and he said he didn't know when his family will get everything back yet hopefully soon. He was posting from his buddy's place.

Hey Guys, just to let you I'm still alive but STILL without power so at this moment I am posting at my friend's house until my power comes back. I am so hungry,cold and constipated with a bit of boredom just coming home to candles and flashlights, going to sleep at 8pm cause there's nothing to do in the house BUT sleep and I'm having trouble getting a good sleep at night, my hangout has been Dunkin Donuts and just this morning My Family ate at a diner and they were so jampacked with people. So anyway that is about it I'm gonna log off soon I'll check back with you during the week. Take care and good night!  :)

Welcame back and it is good to know that you are surviving well.

    Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
    the Gunpowder Treason and Plot,

    I see no reason why Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot.
    Guy Fawkes, t’was his intent to blow up King and Parliament.

    Three score barrels were laid below to prove old England’s overthrow;
    By God’s mercy he was catch’d with a dark lantern and lighted match.

    Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
    Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!

    Hip hip hoorah!

Having our kitchen reredone. YAY!!! Hopefully, it will be smooth sailing-unlike the last time. And it will be done RIGHT!!!

Waiting for another hour to pass so that I can go get bloodwork done.  I hate fasting 12 hours.  I tried to sleep as much of that time as possible.  Still ended up being awake for a few of those hours reading restaurant reviews and online restaurant menus.  ;D
I want to avoid watching t.v., a:) because of the constant political ads and it's mostly for the candidate that I am NOT voting for.  But I'm tired of all of the ads, no matter who they are.  I'm also tired of the diatribes posted on Facebook by friends, wish there was an ignore political and religious discussions option on Facebook.  8-P
and B.) The other reason that I'm avoiding t.v. is because I usually watch the cooking channel or the Food Network or will actively hunt any cooking show on any other channel.  Yeah, I'm obsessed.  ;D  Not to mention the torturous restaurant commercials, even grocery store commercials.  I'm a glutton for punishment, I guess.  ;D

Went to the doctor yesterday, he again wants me to get a weight-loss surgery that I don't really want to get.  But then part of me wonders if that would be the final thing that would help me finally get into shape (other then a round shape).  The couple people that I know have had the surgeries, have all had complications, one friend had the lap band, and when she was pregnant (a year ago) she had it removed or loosened or whatever, now she is as big as I am.  I've never been good at willpower, so would I go through all of that only to regain it all?  Do I want another hospital stay?  Maybe I'm just scared of losing weight, and having people tell me how great I look?  Well, I'm still the same person I always was, why would you like me more if I'm skinnier?

I was going to ask to be put on an anti-depressant, but I didn't know which to ask for.  I think most women in my family have been on Paxil for awhile, so I suppose I could start there and see.

Hubby will be out of the house most of this weekend for work, so I probably will be trying to work up the energy to clean like a madwoman.  I can do it if I just work myself up into a manic phase.  It's sad that if I don't do that first, nothing really gets done.  I guess I'm a sloth too.  I wonder what other deadly sins I can admit to in this posting.  :-X ;D

Well, I'm still the same person I always was, why would you like me more if I'm skinnier?



You may be the same person, but you will be the same person for a lot longer.  ;)

When I lost a lot of weight, people in my life made a really big deal out of it.  And I was certainly grateful for the kind words - I knew that people meant well.  But people would always say "you're so beautiful!"  with a tone of shock and surprise.  I always wanted to say "I had this same face when I was heavier."  Idk...you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't.

If depression runs in your family, I would most definitely discuss it with your doctor.  Depression sucks the life out of you.  And the energy.  A pill won't fix your life, but it can help you deal with things more effectively.  That's my experience anyway.

hope all goes well with the blood work... sorry about the not eating for 12hrs...that's a bitch.


You know my struggles Patty so I think I can say this to you. You are a beautiful person inside and out! Losing weight will not change that or increase that... I think people say you look great to encourage you. It's hard to hear it all the time tho because, especially when you live with a lot of doubt, you become hyper aware of it...plus, if you're even a smidge like me, you're not really used to/comfortable with all that positive attention... it took time to accept it. 

I fought it for a awhile but then, once I started losing an amazing thing happened- I actually felt good about myself.  I am the first to admit I'm a complete food addict with zero will power... I want what I want when I want it... what I've managed to do tho is learn how to not beat myself on the days I do fall into familiar patterns. I don't wallow in them either.. if I have a (not a bad day- I won't allow the negative association anymore so I call it a "fun" day) so when I have a fun day I allow it and say...yep I enjoyed that, tomorrow I will do better. 

But you will not get there until you are ready for it.  Like you I'm not a fan of the surgery. I think it's a temp fix. I know I will never really conquer the eating challenges I face so I think the surgery would be a waste of my time. It doesn't make sense until you fix your own approach/relationship to food....

but I hope that you find something that works for you when you are ready to work it... you know we will always be here for you on the good days and the bad.  And I don't know if this is still the case but some time ago I was prescribed Wellbutrin which is an anti-depressant that's supposed to help with weight loss....it's an idea.

Good luchh whatever you decide to do and don't do my friend... I love ya!

Off to the polls. I'm sure no one can guess who I'm gonna vote for.  :D ;D ;D ;D

Welcame back and it is good to know that you are surviving well.



I'm still not quite back I am chatting with you via library computer and my session is about to run out soon and right now I have light and heat but not computer,telephone and tv so it might not be for another day or so, I'll keep you updated as soon as possible. Take care and see you guys soon, hopefully. :)

Mom and I have been talking about laser surgery for my face or something because It is bad  and other stuff too so my brain is overloaded.  Even better is that my Medical has totaly changed and the doctors I get to choose from my mom never heard of and are located in the worst parts of town possible.  This is the last thing this overloaded brain person wanted to know.  I'm going to go play some games

Just received drafts of Sigs will, power of attorney, and health care proxy.  Stuff had to get done, but now eye have tears because I know one day they will be necessary  :\'( :\'(

That's good but sucks, Danoota. 



Voted after work.  Sarah went with me and watched.  She is really interested this time around.  She figured out her first time to be eligible to vote will be the next presidential election.

feel a little better now.  It's just so frustrating when you can only think stright when thinking about one thing at a time and this includes trying to hear.

The Medical stuff- I don't know for sure why the choices are so lousy, but I hope someone isn't making some kind of assumption like everyone on Medical is a drug addict or something.  I'm part of this Cancer Survivor group that can probably help me somehow.

well...tonight I went to a little birthday gathering for a friend of mine at an Irish pub restaurant. This had been scheduled last night, less than 24 hours in advance (iow, short notice), so it wasn't until 7:30 until everyone who planned to show up did so. Still, it was a nice gathering; we had a late dinner and some cake.
Oh, and I was the only guy who showed up.

Just received drafts of Sigs will, power of attorney, and health care proxy.  Stuff had to get done, but now eye have tears because I know one day they will be necessary  :\'( :\'(


I know the feeling.
