OMG, I actually have an interview! A company that I left a resume at a year ago contacted me! Now they want me to come in for an interview! this is only the third one I've had in a year and a half.
So, Tuesday Jun. 29, at about 2:30 Central time, if I could get some "Don't-screw-this-up"~ma, I would so appreciate it.
I liked this company a lot and would really like to work there.
eta, yes, it should be June!
I really hope that should be June.
Request for cat~ma - I got a phone call tonight from a woman who thinks she might have my long lost (7 months!) cat Ivan.
I called her and a message for her.
Fingers crossed it's my kitcat.
Some let it be nothing~ma for Mom, please. She had the vitrectomy on Thursday, everything was going well, and this morning she started vomiting with chills and sweats, and her BP and blood sugar levels are entering dangerous territory. L just took her to the ER, and I'm headed to the shop to cover for her.
I'd really like the medical roller coaster to end. This is not a fun ride for her.
So anyway, I'm 13 weeks pregnant. Woo hoo!
Congratulations, Jessica!
I'm really behind in every thread right now, so please don't think I'm ignoring any of you....
Mom's back home and resting. She was dehydrated, which was easy enough to fix. The nausea was caused by the pressure being too high in the affected eye, which caused motion sickness, so the doctor did some magic with needles. She goes to the specialist first thing in the morning. The high blood sugar was the result of steroids in the prescription eye drops. We'll see if a change to prednisone-free drops helps.
In short we're cautiously optomistic, but the ER didn't inspire a lot of confidence so we're waiting until we get the all clear from her regular doctors. Thanks for the continued ~ma; I'm a true believer in its effectiveness.
Cool beans. The blog I write for was just named one of the best blogs of 2010 by Time magazine.
Thanks for the interview~ma! The first interview went well and I go back for a second one on Thursday. So, a little more for Thursday at 2:00pm Central time would be most appreciated, again.
Dad is safely back from Afghanistan. Thanks for the ~ma.
If I could get a little funding~ma for the small non-profit I volunteer for that would be great. I've been working on a survey and a report to defend us to our primary funders and if it works out, I think we can still do a lot of good in the community. I'm meeting with them later this morning after submitting my report yesterday.
