Hello Smiley

eyelashes Monday was a Monday! I don't usually use an eyelash curler, and now I know why! Instead of curling my lashes, the eyelash curler took off a bunch of my lashes! Grrr.. I read up on how to get your eyelashes back & it is recommended to use petroleum jelly on your lashes before you go to sleep, so once again, I am forced to play the guinea pig of my dilemmas.

curlersSometimes, I put in a few electric curlers to give my hair a little lift, but on Monday morning, my curlers finally gave out! OMG @ they are REALLY old, so I know I will not be able to find some like them. Grrr...

PhotobucketI know other things happened that morning but my mind must have chosen to block them out! LOL... What I do remember is that it was very unusual for a cop to be traveling all the way from my home to my work. Yep! You heard right! So there was no way that I could have driven a little over the speed limit! Grr to the 3rd power...

envelopeWhen I got to work, I was able to complete one case to turn it in for approval... Yay!... but the airfare for the case from last week had not come in yet. Grrr... If the money came in on time, the plan was to get him on that plane on Thursday for him to be reunited with his family...

PhotobucketOn Tuesday, I was able to submit two more cases for approval, but the man who reviews them was out on vacation until Friday. Grrr.... LOL @ so many Grrs this week...

envelopeOn Wednesday, the family I was expecting the airfare money from called to tell me that the money order was returned because no one signed for it. Grrr @ the post office people never left us a note to tell us the letter was there and I know this because I checked the mail every day! Grrr...

eat Pac ManWednesday was the one year employment anniversary of one of the She-Devils that I work with, so I had to go out to eat with all the She-Devils. Grrr @ I was praying all day long over that! Of course, they only like to go to Mexican restaurants and there was really nothing on the menu that I wanted, so I tried the Spinach and Mushroom enchiladas. Yuk! Something I will never buy again... I just remained quiet and talked only when spoken to. Absolutely no bonding whatsoever there! They have missed their chances with me, because I have learned that they are people that I can never trust...

sleep smileyOn Thursday, the auditors showed up at 4:50 p.m. What the ?!!@#. We couldn't leave until almost 8 p.m. I didn't get home until almost 9 & you know I am on salary! Grrr...

Hug You Til You Get Here On Friday, a very angry man who had not seen his kid in 11 years insisted that he wanted to see his son. What the ?!!@# @ you abandoned your son 11 years ago. What's one more day of waiting?! EXPLAIN it to me, PLZ!!!!!!! Grrr @ I practically had to almost complete a case that takes about 2 weeks in four hours?! Grrr...

eyeglassesOn Saturday, I finally went to get an Eye exam, because I cannot super-glue my glasses any more! Grrr... When I got there, I was surprised to discover that I had not been there since 2005. What?!!!!!!! Four years ago?! No wonder I have been having problems with my glasses... I got a contact and an eyeglasses prescription, which was $85.00. OMG! So instead of getting, glasses, I decided to get contacts first. Another big expense but I had to order them, because they didn't have them in stock. Grrr...

Today is Sunday and I ate before I weighed in so I don't know if I lost any weight this week. Grrr... LOL @ I hope all the GRRs won't forward over into this week... When will it get better?!

You should have feigned illness to avoid the Mexican Celebration Meal. "I'm not feeling well, I think I ate some bad chicken salad yesterday, I'll never go to that deli by my house again." I wouldn't break bread with those witches.

You cannot change other people, you can only change your reaction to them. The girls in my office don't even invite me anymore...I bring my lunch everyday, and they know it. I can't afford to go out to lunch every day like they do. "I'll cover the phones" is my line...seems to work!

Amanda said...

Cathy said...

Quite alot of Grrrrz eh? LOL I know about that eyelash scheme, it pulls the damn things right out of your skin! Who needs curly lashes anyway lol they're supposed to protect the eye from falling dust which they can't do if curled up. Odd the way we always try to change ourselves when we're just fine as we are. :-)

I am sorry about your eyelashes, chica. I hope they grow back !

Forget about those office bitches. every office seems to have those, lol.

I hope that you have a better week ahead of you !

When I ordered just new lenses for my eyeglasses, they were over $200., so believe it or not, the $85. is GOOD!
But the rest, ugh, frustrating. Albeit, I bet if you feigned illness with vague "flulike" symptons, they'd have been very happy for you to not join them. lol
Sigh.
May the planefare money come through, may the man who insists on seeing his child, may those cases and the others work out as God sees fit, which I know you're trying to do appropriately. Perhaps there's a reason you're there, but it doesn't mean you have to stay there forever...

Was worried about you last week when you didn't post, but glad to see you are still persevering. You're not there to make friends, you're there to do the best you can for those kids, and I know you are doing that!

Forget those She-Devils, don't sweat the small stuff, and relish in the fact that you are making a difference in people's lives... missing eyelashes and all ;) Veronica
