Bummer...Christmas is going to have to get cleaned up sooner, rather than later. My good friend from Houston is traveling up here for work and wants to stay with us. Happy that she is coming, but bummed that I have to actually do something about Christmas.
I started running again (yay) this weekend. It felt so fantastic! I spent Sunday with my long-time client and she sent me an e-mail this morning commenting that I am still looking good and asked if I was still running. I am so transparent. If I feel good on the inside, I look good on the outside. I've gained 35 pounds over the last 13 months and the weekend I start running again, she notices something. Funny.
I am still upset with my boss. He won't commit to when I will get my bonus and it is really affecting my attitude. I love the clients and they love working with me, so I will miss them if I do leave. One of the funnier ones that I had the priveledge of working with today included this on an e-mail to my boss today, talking about me: "P.S. Shes wonderful, polite, efficient, funny, intelligent and NOT YOU!" My boss and I were both laughing about it...she's just too funny. My boss said that I am getting a raise and it will be retroactive to January 1, but he didn't say how much the raise was. He won't tell me that until he gives me my actual review. Sometimes I feel like I am throwing a big baby temper-tantrum about all this. I wish I knew someone who would give me an unbiased opinion--but I can't ask myself. LOL.
Nothin' else going on. Still a little hungry...salad wasn't enough.

I don't blame you for feeling manipulated; your boss seems to be teasing you and not in a good way. If you're entitled to a bonus and the bonus was promised for a specific time (now past), he should cough up. If he wants to give you a raise but can't do it yet, he should not have mentioned it until he can do it. Dangling the promise like a carrot in front of the struggling donkey is no way to treat a valuable employee.
