It has been awhile again. I am not very good at this posting business, but I thought I should try and keep it up to date.
I took the job I talked about at United Health Care - and it was horrible. Without going into a lot of detail, the training lasted 12 weeks and was very inadequate. When we actually went on the job, I felt so poorly prepared to deal with the customers. The pay was decent, and that is the reason I took the job over the other job offers I had.
Another job offer I received was from a promotional supply company. The HR person said if I ever needed a job to call them. So, after 4 months of hell at UHC, I called her and asked if anything was available and she said YES! To make a long story short, I have been there for three weeks, and I like it very much so far. My non-compete contract with Harrah's expired, but I decided that I do not want to go back into the casino industry until and if something fabulous comes up at one of the local casinos.
I have regained about 10-12 lbs., so I joined WW online to try to get ahold of things. I had four really good days last week and 3 not so good days, but I lost 3 lbs. I will plug along, because my clothes are too tight and I DO NOT want to regain this weight. I can see how it could happen. If I can maintain at around 155-160 I will be delighted. Right now I am 173. I will keep this updated.
Terry's brother did succumb to the cancer in January of 2007, on his birthday. It was very, very sad. The family had done very well, I think, and I think Terry has handled it better than I could have expected.
Rosie is groovy. We had a family reunion in February, celebrating Fred's 45th wedding anniversary, Nancy's 40th wedding anniversary, and Marilyn's 70th birthday. It was a wonderful event. If I can get some photos uploaded I will post a couple.
I can't complain. I want to get the weight off, but I think I can do it. I like the new job so far, and the IRS hasn't come to get me for the taxes I owe for this year (hey-at least I filed, and the amount isn't as much as the rebate I am supposed to get! LOL)
