Started my new job today

I started my new job today.I think it will be a lot better than the last one.
The Sprint building is a lot cleaner. It just looks more pleasant all around.
I won't use the free cell service, we just started a new contract with T-Mobile, I like T-Mobile
though, been with them for over 5 years.

Poor Jewell was looking for me today. It is the first day in four weeks I have not been home all
day, so the poor doggie is missing me. Hopefully she will adjust.With summer coming on , she can spend time outdoors chasing that silly squirrel that has been bothering her all winter.

Plus , she likes to watch the birds in the trees. She sure is a silly dog. Sharon said she was eating the seed pods from the maple trees. Goofy puppy.

Well, got some stuff to do and the weather is acting up . more later

got my pattern

Finally got my pattern. Had to use my daughter's laptop. I think there is something going on with my desktop. I know the processor is way outta date. We really need to get a new mother board, and tower. but we need to get a house first or find out when we can get a house.

I started a Heaven and Earth Designs pattern yesterday, it is the Black Stallion pattern. I am doing it on 22 ct aida. 22ct is small for me , so I have a magnifier to use while I am stitching it.
I will post pictures later, need to get them out of my phone, the digital camera is not working to well

the internet

The internet is being STUPID today. It will not let get into the Pappilion cross stitch site so I can download the free patterns. I can't get into the newsletter part or navigate around the site. I think I am going to scream.

First Multiply Post

Hey everyone,
This is my first Multiply post.

I got a new job. I will start working at the Sprint call center here in Oklahoma City on March 30..
Only problem will be , I live in Moore , OK . Moore is on the other side of the city. I have 25 miles of highway between me and work I will get used to it, but it is a big difference between less than 5 minutes to the old job and 35 minutes (on a good day) to the new one.Oh well, such is life.

It is cold today. Was cool yesterday and warm the day before. We could get snow tonight. Oklahoma has some weird weather. It can go from 90 degrees Fahrenheit in the morning to below freezing by sunset. I have seen and felt it myself. True story.

My poor dog did not want to go outside this evening. She usually loves it outside. She has a squirrel friend that teases her out back. I have seen her set for an hour watching that silly thing hoping it would fall out of the tree. Not sure what she would do if it did fall though, probably run the opposite direction, fast. Jewell is a funny dog. She is a black lab/sheltie mix with something else. She has these long legs and little body , so she looks like a puppy. She really is cute, I will get a new picture of her and post it here on my blog. She loves to chase the cats around the house. She does not realize they don't like her , that or she does not care.

Ok , well , that is enough for tonight , gonna work on the site a little then go to bed. Got stuff to do tomorrow.
bye

Lets try this again

Yesterday I tried to post a post.
It evaporated, don't have any idea where it went.

Any way, I am going to try again.

Today started out interesting. We had a earthquake. Yep, right here in Oklahoma. We actually have a lot of earthquakes each year.This one was a 3.7 , I believe is what the media said. I slept through it. Jeff (DH) said it sounded like someone had slammed the front door real hard. He said one of the bedroom walls shook. I probably thought it was the door, that is why I did not pay any attention to it. It happened at about 8 am. Nothing was damaged. The earthquakes in this part of the country are deep in the earth. There are several deep fault lines under the middle of the U.S.
The seismographs at the universities around here are pretty active.

So , I lost my job at Convergys on Tuesday this pas week. That afternoon I applied online to the Sprint call center that is in Oklahoma City. I got a call that afternoon to come in for an interview that next day. As long as I pass the drug test and the background check, I should have a job sometime next week. I am going to see if I can get the training class that starts on March 30. The bad thing about working at Sprint is that the center is 25 miles away , one way. I may end up getting rid of my grand am and getting something that gets better gas mileage . It is all highway there and back, so that is not too bad. I just hope I get a shift that does not start or end at rush hour.

My daughter Sharon still has some more tests to see if the docs can find out what is wrong with her stomach. She does not have gall stones , but the doctor still thinks she has gall bladder disease. The doctor can't just send her to surgery without proof of a diagnosis, it would be medically unethically to operate with out a good reason. He thinks she may be diabetic. She has a doctor appointment to check that out next week. I hope she is fine and just needs to be careful with her diet and exercise and that kind of thing , she is only 20 . We have a strong family history for diabetes though. My mother is a diet/oral medication controlled diabetic, her sister and brother are diabetic. My first cousin has a child that has juvenile diabetes.So that is a lot of people with diabetes right there. Jeff's mom has hypoglycemia , which is a form of diabetes and I think Jeff's mom's mom had it too, not sure of that though.

The pets are doing good too. Last month when all of us had a stomach flu, the poor cats did too. They are better now too.

Well, I guess that is it for now. I really gotta get some more pictures up on this thing.
