Keep your fingers crossed for me...
among a few things in my life that are going haywire lately, there's one possible bright spot -- there's a full-time position opening up at work that I really, really want. Keep a good thought if you would?

Purty please?

3. Thanks.
I've been part-time for the past five years -- the full-time thing would be perfect. And it's a job that I already know.

7. Thanks.
This job could be the perfect thing for me. And it would be great for them, too...the training would be minimal.

19. It really is what I need
right now, I think. The extra $$ and regular hours would help, plus it's a job that I've done off and on for the past few years, so I already know it and know I can do it.

Thank you.

feel free to send a PM if you need a shoulder (I do still have one good one of those).

Seems like I haven't seen you around in ages. How are you?

You're a class act, hon, and I appreciate you more than you know.

Thank you.

25. I haven't been around much, because I lost June to being sick (really,
the entire month...it was truly dreadful for me and horribly frightening for Mrs R), then spent July catching up on the work I didn't do in June, then we went to Vermont / New Hampshire for 5 (desperately-needed) days of vacation, which was enjoyable except for the part when I got attacked by a moose, though I can't blame Mr Moose for getting honked off at me, being that I invaded his personal space and all, but not to worry because I did manage to get into the car before he reduced me to a puddle of Redstone Jelly With Camera, and I'm still a bit tired, can you tell?

I do hope you get out of the Agate Graveyard Shift, and that the other stuff clears up as well.

(I'm a "class act," am I? Well then you, The Lady of Many R's, must accept the fact that you are a peach. So there.)

27. Sounds like it was an interesting vacation...
did you at least get the picture? And you're doing better now, physically?

38. Pictures to follow, probably tomorrow night. And yes, I'm pretty much recovered;
I managed to do all that work during July without triggering a relapse.

I actually (yes, it's true) learned a lesson from what happened in June; I'm paying real attention to pacing myself, such as remembering to take the 20-minute midday break on the couch, and stopping work when Mrs R sees the warning signs and tells me it's time to quit for the day.

Christ, getting older is no damn fun...but it still beats the hell out of the only alternative.

23. I hope so, too.
I just hate all the red tape and formalities involved. And there's the little bit of business where the boss is out of town when the position opens up so the process can't even START until he gets back next week.

Thank you.
