Hoo and Ray - the former co-worker and friend to whom I sent the email last night has responded!  We were quite close when we worked together at Miami University.  We both married men we met on campus and had children about the same time (hers are a little older than Rob).  She's been retired a few years, still lives nearby, and we're making plans to get together.

I also reconnected with a high school friend/2-time college roommate via Facebook!

Yeah Ginny!! That's exciting

[TCB]

Personally, I would ask her before she goes on vacation.

Sorry, I should stay out of your business.

If I didn't want any comments, I wouldn't have posted about it.  You're fine DR TCB

That's good.  I agree with Jane that perhaps you could ask her in passing if you had been crabby or moody while you were sick.  And if she says yes, it is a good time to clear the air.

[Cillaliz]

Well I was extremely crabby one day and apologized the next day.  She didn't even acknowledge that I apologized.  She's been quite rude, actually with little comments and tuning me out when I'm trying to talk to her.   I think I'll give it a day or two and see what mood she's in this week

[Cillaliz]

If she decides to move on, maybe there's someone better waiting out there.....

[Cillaliz]

So, enough about that...it is what it is. thanks for the comments.

[vixmom]

DR Vixmom - there's nothing like receiving communion from someone you love.

that is the truth!

[Cillaliz]

I really enjoyed cupcake wars tonight.  You'd think with a name like cupcake wars they'd throw the cupcakes at each other, but no....

[vixmom]

Ginny, can you tell me, without looking it up, what the subject was of Richard's sermon today?

Moses and the burning bush.

Well, even if it is wrong; it is a great cover!

It's not wrong, DR TCB!  I heard him practicing yesterday, but all I could hear over the fan we had running in the hallway was, "I AM THAT I AM."  I immediately thought of the song from La Cage aux Folles and told him about it, but he didn't really care to incorporate it.

 

[Ginny]

DR Cillaliz - hope it all works out at your office.

[Jrand73]

Miss Callee has found her favorite place, a small table in my father's room.....ceiling fan breeze, not too much bright light, and close to the bed if she wants covers.

[Jrand73]

"If you're too busy, too bad."

LOL.....who wants to go to a meeting about selling Amway anyway?

[Jrand73]

Discovery vibes for DR CILLA LIZ.

[Jrand73]

Almost time for MAD MEN.

[Cillaliz]

DR Cillaliz - hope it all works out at your office.

Thanks Ginny and JRand....I just have this feeling that whatever happens will be for the best.  I'm not sure what it is, but I really think it's going to work out for the best.

[Cillaliz]

Miss Callee has found her favorite place, a small table in my father's room.....ceiling fan breeze, not too much bright light, and close to the bed if she wants covers.

That's wonderful!  Does she like to purr?

[vixmom]

I'm feeling a bit moody today. Not sure if it's because I'm still not feeling well, or the weather or the fact that I noticed Edith doesn't have her two personal items on her desk anymore.   She's been acting strange ever since I've been sick. I don't think she believed I was really sick, She's been tuning me out and has all and all been very irritating.  anyway, I've had this feeling she's thinking about leaving and then today I saw the clay paperclip holder her son made and another thing she said she's had at every office she's worked in are both gone. She's never had many personal items at the office so this feels a bit ominous

Cilla, you are the boss and she works for you.  What is it to her if you are home sick, or goofing off, or spending the day at a foreign film festival.  Has there been some other disagreement between you two lately?  I thought she loved working for you.

Sometimes employees may feel that the boss takes them for granted and is off having fun while they are there doing the work and making the boss's money for them....an acknowledgement and showing of appreciation of their hard work and keeping  the ship afloat while the captain was away etc etc can go a long way





 

[vixmom]

OR


alternately perhaps she has found other employment and is feeling guilty and doesn't know how to approach you to tell you


 

[vixmom]

OR

maybe the janitorial staff has broken/thrown out her personal items and she thinks YOU took them!

Get me off this damn page.

Finished disc two of Dragnet and shall now go jog, even though I'm not really in the mood.

((((ELMORE)))))

ANTI DEPRESSION VIBES FOR ELMORE

[Cillaliz]

Thanks, Vixmom, I really value your opinion (not that I don't value others).  I do make a point of telling her and others in her presence how great she does her job and how much she contributes to my office. I give her paid time off on afternoons when there isn't too much going on, I buy her lunch, bring in treats and give her a lot of extras. Last time she asked for a raise I gave it to her.

She did make a comment about another lawyer who was looking for a secretary and found one.  Actually now that I think of it she's said she would have worked in other places if she hadn't taken the job with me. Maybe she's found a job, I guess I'll find out.

[Cillaliz]

VIBES FOR DR ELMORE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[Cillaliz]

VIBES FOR ALL WHO NEED THEM~~~~~~~

[Cillaliz]

Neither cat is sitting on my lap  Hrumph!

[Cillaliz]

I did have a great day hanging out with Callie.  She gets the most upset when there is chaos, and the last month has been chaos.  She's doing great today and that makes me very happy

[bk]

Back from a brisk jog.

[Cillaliz]

It's going to rain again tonight....oh joy.    DR Laura, I saw news stories about floods in Phoenix, did you get rain?
