It is just me or is this week going by extremely slow? Maybe it's because I'm still going through long weekend withdrawal. Plus I feel like all this good stuff keeps happening and yet I keep getting down at the same time. It's weird.
The Good Stuff
*Our Christmas present arrived yesterday in the from of an HD TV!
*Our TV stand arrived 20 minutes ago!
*Babysat cute little boys the other night.
*Got our photo Christmas cards in the mail and I've even gotten a lot of the addressed already. Go me! Can't wait to mail them out!
*Got the house all decorated for Christmas. Loving Christmas music. Plus I bought things to make Christmas treats for people!
The Bad Stuff
*I totally smashed my finger trying to drag the TV stand in off the porch. It's still throbbing a little bit.
*I've been tired all week.
*I miss my co-worker A LOT. That's my biggest downer from this week. Instead I'm working alone some days (which I don't really mind) or working with the one person who I pretty much cannot stand working with. That in itself make me want to run away and hide. I have to take deep breaths and try not to go off the deep end. I'm not sure how much of it I'll be able to stand though. Last time I worked with this person I eventually got to the point where I'd come home and cry every night, and I just can't deal with that.
*I had to deal with some life insurance lady who came to work yesterday. I dodged her the first time. They basically try to con you into signing up for something "free", but I'm convinced they'll charge us after that time is up and make it nearly impossible to get out of it. Jacob and I had already discussed it and I planned to say no. Well, I went in and said I wasn't interested right away. Then she started asking me some questions. After a couple I was like, "What are you doing?" because she was typing things on her laptop. I was like, "Are you signing me up for this?" She said she was. Yeah...that's gonna win me over. She kept pressuring me and giving me the run around until I finally got exasperated and asked, "So you're telling me I CAN'T REJECT THIS???" Finally she backed down and made me sign something saying I declined. I cannot stand pushy people and I am quite proud of myself for standing my ground.
Anyway...it's Survivor time so I'm off to relax!
Good for you! You can't let people convince you otherwise on anything if you don't beleive in it or want it. I'm proud of you. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry you will be dealing with this woman again, I'll be praying for you. Please try to go into each day and be positive, you know she won't last long.
DO NOT try to move anything without Jacob's help. I've learned the hard way and don't want you to get hurt or break your new tv. So, be patient an wait.
Enjoy Survivor in HD. love you, mom
Sorry that you have to deal with an unlikeable co-worker. I know I'd rather be by myself than with someone I didn't like. Good for you asserting yourself. I can't believe that that woman was signing you up even though you had told her no. Amazing. Listen to your mother ... she's the one who lifts tables and drops them on her toes! :)
ReplyDeleteOH man what a drag about that insurance lady, good job standing up to her.
ReplyDeletePray blessings on your co-worker it might not help but it may get your mind in a better place concerning her.
enjoy your new tv and stand! take care of your finger
love you, girl
I like how you did this post! I agree with the other comments up there...good for you standing your ground like that! I don't like pushy people either! I am sure you do miss your co-worker! I still miss some of the ones that I had in the NAVY...
