Wednesday, Feb 27 2008 - I'm still here
View BEARSMOM's food & exercise for this day
It seems like forever since I've blogged. Thanks Lory, for the push.
I have been so busy lately, I think I am overloading myself. My boss keeps giving me more responsibilites and I am accepting them. DUH! I can't work as much as she thinks I can because I am a homeschooling mom and I go to school myself. (she knows this) I agreed to work Tuesdays and Thursdays. THat has turned into 9 hrs each Tues/Thurs, plus meetings on Mondays and now she just asked if I could do 5 hrs on Fridays and I said OK.
What is wrong with me? Why can't I say NO!!!! My husband thinks I am crazy. I haven't had a raise in over a year and I am still so loyal to this company.
My guess is, I am looking at how things will look on my resume. The longer you stay in a company and the tasks that you do when you are there are what show up on the resume. I am working on my Master's degree in Administration with a Human Performance Technology Specialization. The classwork is all about doing projects and my main focus has been performance issues at this company that I currently work for (although names are changed to protect the innocent and the guilty). If I lose this job now, I will have to change the focus of my schoolwork, which has another year left, at least.
So, I take a deep breath and focus on what I have to do today. Luckily, I don't have to work. I do, however, have to help Bear with algebra (YUCK), study for a midterm on Saturday, catch up on housework, walk on the treadmill (usually last on the list), and think about this project I am doing for work (making a training module on the PC to replace myself as teacher...an attempt to please my boss when I tell her I cannot work so many hours).
And with that, I must go start my day. I hope everyone is happy and healthy.
OH, and the scale is still not moving. At least it's not moving up!!

Okay so now I'm all worn out from all that you have to do.
:cross2: So I guess this means that you stop by every once in a while to let us know how you are.... at least take care of yourself too.
:love:
