Has it really been so long?

Well, I'm done with training and I've nearly completed my first week in my new job by myself. It's going really well. I know it's not where I want to be for good but it's a step in the right direction. If I can't be a teacher, which is what I really want to do, I want to at least progress where I'm at. In that case, it would mean getting out of finance and into operations, either working with a specific account or dispatching trucks. I've got a friend in a class right now and she said most of them are idiots. If those idiots can do it, I know I can!!!

The sales rep for 2 of my big accounts wants to pick me up and take me to the customer next week. I don't have much choice about going. So....not wanting to go alone, I talked the collector into going with me. He's a really sweet guy, and while not actually a "friend" of mine, he's more friend than the stranger sales rep and customers, and that will make me feel better. I'm not really good with people I don't know.

David did eventually call, soon after I'd given up on him calling. Who can figure out men? So lately we've talked maybe twice a week. I'm still not sure where, if anywhere, the relationship is going. He wants to go back to school, and I'd imagine that will take up much of his time and finances. I'm willing to see what happens because he is a nice guy.

I'm not losing any weight. My schedule is all screwy, and this week Justin is at his dad's. Another bad thing, they opened a drive thru ice cream place between mom's house and my house. I've not been too good at resisting a drive through. I need to fix that. It's too bad too, because they have a really good sugar free fat free coffee caramel swirl, but unfortunately, they've only had that flavor once. Anyway, my sis talked about splitting a month of NS foods with me, and I thought that would be great, but then she backed out because she didn't have enough money. So we've put it off till the end of the month. The only positive I can say in the weight arena is that I'm holding my own.

I don't know much about malpractice, but I think my family is going to look into it as far as my father's death is concerned. Surely someone should have seen him instead of tell him it wasn't his heart over the telephone. I guess we'll see. It's pretty sad....once they saw how badly his heart was damaged, then they brought every doctor around to look at it. They couldn't believe he was still walking around. Anyway, the real irony of that situation is that I think the only closure would be to bring a suit and lose. If we win, that makes his death only that much more difficult to bear, and no money will heal that sorrow.

I think I covered it all. I will try to check in with my fellow bloggers to see how you are all doing in the very near future.
