Is it Friday?! OMG @ is this what "TGIF" is all about?!# It feels so good! LOL... What a pleasant day it was... Perhaps more so because it was the last day of the work week... I got all of my updates completed and filed on time, some ahead of time... The lead worker didn't input my completed case into the computer, but she allowed me to do it myself on her computer, which was super, because I want to learn what has to be done instead of having someone else do the work for me... How exciting! It was so liberating to submit my first case for approval!

I have been bringing my lunch to work almost everyday since I started to work there. I am surprised that my clothes are fitting better, and my tummy is learning to eat less at lunchtime. Today, I went out to eat Chinese with M & M. The food was so delicious, and it is always so fun to eat with chopsticks. I got a free calendar, too! I don't know what the calendar is made of, but I can't believe they would give it away for free, because it is of good quality. And of course, at the end of the meal, you get a little fortune cookie with a fortune or quote inside of it. It's so fun! LOL...

"Hammer Guy" overheard me when I said that yesterday was my favorite day of the year. Today he asked me how long I was married. LOL @ he is interested... LOL @ playing dumb as if I don't know he's flirting...

With everyone participating in the Secret Santa putting up their Santa Wish List, I put up my little wish list beside theirs. LOL... a desk, a computer, computer access, a filing cabinet, a phone, and an office key. M saw my list, smiled at me, and said she was going to take it to the director. LOL... They already know I need those things to do my work...

My little trooper has a Sponsor! Oh, so happy for him... He drew and colored some pretty flowers with pastels (chalk) for me. Oh, so pretty! I taped them up on the wall where I can see them everyday. Makes me happy!

Winter Song

Today is my favorite day of the year. It is the anniversary of my divorce from my girls' father. LOL...

Well, Jones & I made it through Monday and Tuesday. Driving with the window open for two days turned me into an Ice Princess. LOL... With my luck, this had to happen on the coldest days of the week... grrr... I wasn't able to see Mr. Good Wrench until Tuesday evening because he is closed on Mondays. Poor Jones had his guts taken out of the passenger door so they could get to the glass. The little part that holds the window up is broken. Mr. Good Wrench got the window to close, threw all of Jones guts in the trunk and told me to come back on Saturday so he could fix it... Well, there goes my Saturday!

His wife has been spending more time at the shop. I think she suspects that he has a girlfriend... LOL @ she was walking around, trying to see who the blonde was in the car (moi). Mr. Good Wrench has been after me ever since we met. I cannot remember how I discovered his shop. Perhaps it was on one of those occasions when I was having car trouble and Jones stopped at his place... Nevertheless, meeting him has been a blessing, because he lets me ride even when I don't have the money to pay him. I still owe him money from last month when I was having car problems... I don't even remember what it was for, but I am so grateful that he is always there when I need him.... Well, unless if it is Monday. LOL

I am not participating in the Secret Santa, but someone left a Christmas mug with chocolates in it and a box of Mocha Cappuccino on my desk! OMG @ I wonder who left it there. They didn't put my name on it, so I am wondering if it was actually meant for me. What if I eat the candy and it was meant for someone else? Oh, that would make me feel bad. Maybe I should wait to see if someone claims it...
