Yesterday started like any other day, got ready for work, had to run some errands and then it was time to show up and answer some calls. Well.....that all seems like a normal day, right? During my first call, I get a nice email to sign out and go to Quality Assurance to go over one of my monitored calls. Ok, I know when you go there you didn't score at least a 95 or greater, but this month has been a topsy turvy month for me, being sick and all. I wasn't freaking out or anything.
I sit down and listen to allllllllllllllllll the things I have done wrong. A few positives. I am always polite and courteous. Hmmph! How does that go with 110 things wrong? I glance at the date of this particular call and it says 11/19/12. Guess what, this is the first day I am back after being off of work for 12 days! I was going to say something about it but figured she wasn't the person to discuss this with.
Then I hear about another mishap call (guess what date this was from?) you got it! November 19th, first day being back where I know I posted all over facebook that I felt like I had alzheimers, but oh well, who cared? Certainly not the ones that were telling me all I did wrong. Where is the justice?
To add insult to injury, I go over my monthly stuff and yet another call from that fateful day was mentioned. I f"in give up! I did have a royal screw up from another day, the 26th, and I know what I did and didn't do. Not that I am not OWNING all of this stuff, believe me I am and I do, but this shit is messed up on many levels.
I can only forge ahead and move on and if that means away so be it. I know all about PTG but sometimes even that is hard to do in this environment. Thanks for listening...I am still not happy but oh well, life goes on and hopefully I can go on somewhere too time will tell maybe by Friday?! Fingers crossed!! Toes too. :)

The Vet, Christmas Shopping, Circus, & A Quick Bite to eat
Posting for Saturday, November 24th, 2012
Had to take Miss Kitty to the vet after awhile of her coughing, she got 2 shots and an antibiotic to bring home. Dr Mark Thomas gave Miss Kitty a clean bill of health. Miss Kitty will be 11 years old on December 1st. She feels better already. Thank God and thank Dr Thomas for helping Kitty get better. :)
After our vet visit, my mom, Kitty & I went to Moe's to get carry out for Brittanee and something at Starbucks for the two of us. Yum.
Shortly after that Brittanee & I went to upgrade our circus tickets at the Ford Center box office, then we made an unexpected trip to Petsmart for a little Christmas present for the cats, all 3 of them. Teddy, Kitty and Pepper. They love it! I wanted them to get their present at Christmas but since the cat tower was on sale we got it now. Pictures will follow.
The circus for the most part was fun. Some times I got bored but all in all it was a good time. New acts, some old acts were missing no monkeys or bears, and the lion was missing. I had popcorn, we shared a drink and cotton candy. After the circus, we ended up at Beef O Brady's for a quick bite. The service was awful and we tipped accordingly.
Chalk Saturday up as a success!!!

Had to work 8-5 on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, aka Black Friday. Yes, us 10-7'ers got an earlier shift but it was ridiculously slow. They did send some people home early, I tried to get auto time unpaid at that and they still didn't send me home. :( I had had 4 hours of sleep and was bored out of my mind. I did manage to read a lot of my book, Reflections of you, on my Nook.
While at lunch with Stephani, I got to looking at my Facebook on my phone and noticed Amanda had some tickets to give away for the circus. I jumped on them since Brittanee had been bugging me to take her to the circus for days. That was a nice surprise. Brittanee wanted to upgrade the tickets for better seats, she was happy to be going to the circus, but we decided to go to on Saturday.
Just chilled out with the family the rest of the evening and crashed early.

Thanksgiving 2012
Posting for Thursday, November 22nd, 2012
Finally Turkey day arrived! I love turkey, real turkey, not lunch meat turkey, once a year at Thanksgiving. Our turkey did not turn out last year so we decided that we were either going to New Harmony to eat our Thanksgiving meal or cook at home and find some store to prepare the turkey for us.
We had made our reservations at New Harmony and had been there a few times, this year, however the Thanksgiving menu, wasn't as traditional as we would have liked it to be. We toyed with the idea of having Marx BBQ do it, since that is where we have our ham from at Christmas (a tradition that my dad started many years ago and we carry on to this day), called and had even placed an order with them only to call a few hours later to cancel because of the great expense it would have been for so little turkey meat.
Many frustrating hours later, Brittanee came up with the idea of ordering a rotisserie turkey breast from the Fresh Market. I did just that, and Brittanee picked it up on Wednesday. This whole thing was a fiasco, we got the "last" turkey breast in the display which is not what we ordered, and we were supposed to get 3 lbs which was going to be around $30-$40 but there was supposedly a glitch in their system and when Brittanee got there 3 hours early to pick up our bird, we only ended up with $12 worth of turkey. Nasty too, I may add. Oh yes, the Fresh Market will soon be hearing from me.
Anyway, we cooked all of the other fixings to go along with our turkey we had stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes, yams, cranberry sauce, greenbeans, rolls, wine, and plenty of pies and desserts to choose from.
We ate late but it was yummy and we were all full. Brittanee and I decided to venture out and find some bargains and that we did. It was a success. All and all a good Turkey day spent with loved ones. :)

So, it is a known fact to most that are close to me, that my brother Richard and I do NOT get along. He hates/resents/whatever me and Brittanee. Has for a long time, not sure what all that is about, and frankly, I am not about to air that much dirty laundry here on this blog for all the world to see. I don't care, the feeling is mutual.
I have another brother, Kenny, who I see maybe once or twice a year. He is ok, decent, funny just always has been distant.
I also have a sister, she is the bomb diggity!
For whatever reasons, we all stopped getting together on Thanksgiving and Christmas, sad, but at least I still get to see my sister. We are close I would say. Thankful for that. :)

Am I the only one fascinated.....?
Posting for Tuesday, November 20th, 2012
Am I the only one fascinated with the Gangnam Style fad? I want to learn that dance! Doesn't look like much to it but I am so uncoordinated and not very fancy on my feet. I may try it when I get to feeling better.
It is so catchy! I know some people think it is silly and gets on their nerves but it looks fun to me......maybe one day, but there will be NO videos!!

Going back to work after being off for 12 days, no where near like being on vacation, and trying to resume "normal " work duties was a tad overwhelming to say the very least. I jumped right back into the swing of things but I wont lie I felt like someone that has Alzheimer's, I couldn't remember much of anything! I am sure I did lots wrong, I am sure I will hear about it, but I feel like I should have had a refresher or two before diving back in. I guess I was the only one that felt that way, because it was never offered. Some things I still don't "get" about that place but I guess it's just not for me to understand.
Hopefully as the week wears on things will get better and start to "click" for me again. I am glad its only a 4 day work week. I know this sounds funny but I have 4 hours left that I need to take off and I can't decide which day is better. I was just off 12 days but again it was NO vacation! Trust me.
I do like my job, hoping for a new shift one day, and for the most part I like my co-workers, but feeling very melancholy about my old peeps and our traditions in the work place. This company doesn't have the same comaderie or maybe it is just I don't fit in with them. That could be too!
Pray that my memory comes back to me! Thanks in advance....

I thought that Sunday I could do all this last minute stuff, like cleaning cleaning cleaning after being sick for 12 days. I did manage to get a lot done, but still some things to do. I had gotten to a point that I knew I had to stop, quit what I was doing and sit down or I would be going crazier than I already am or I would just pass out.
Even though I am better I am not completely well yet and the little things leave me out of breath in a hot minute. Sad. I haven't been able to resume my exercise regimen yet, or walk that much because of my breathing issues. Hoping to change that next weekend. Time will tell.
My mom and I ate a nice dinner, she her favorite Bertolli which is Rotini and Italian Sausage, me mashed potatoes, green beans, corn and cottage cheese. Since I have been sick I have been on this mashed potato kick! And the best part of all, is I will get to devour more with Thanksgiving a few days away! Love them!
After our dinner, we spent the evening playing Jeopardy on the Wii (my mom's favorite), I even talked her in to playing some Wheel of Fortune, and Family feud. It was a good last day and night before returning to work. Ahhhh.

Getting back in the swing of things.....
Posting for Saturday, November 17th, 2012
After being sick almost 2 weeks and it taking a toll on my body, I knew I had to start doing things little by little so I would be half way ready to go back to work on Monday. I ran some errands early in the morning, came home, fixed a breakfast casserole then got sick and had to lay down for awhile.
The culprit? Coffee has made me really sick the last 4 times I have tried to drink it, not sure what that is all about. Funny thing is, if you dont know, before my gastric bypass surgery I hated coffee with a passion, after gastric bypass I became a coffee junkie, and now it seems I can't "stomach" it at all again. I am not discouraged I will try again when I feel my body is ready for it.
I have noticed in starting to do little things how tired I get so easily. I need to sit or lay down. What am I going to do when I go back to work, and don't have these options? Oh my!
I finally learned how to delete multiple pictures on my computer last night and got rid of hundreds of duplicate pictures and some of people I don't want on my computer anymore, ever again, period. My recycle bin runneth over :).
After that, and making my Christmas list for this year and sending to my loved ones, my mom and I enjoyed a couple of games of Jeopardy on the Wii. Then off to bed we went to snoozeland.

An Exciting New Style
Posting for Friday November 16th, 2012
A few weeks ago while I was at the nail salon pondering how to get my toes done ( I must admit I am a french pedicure junkie) wanted to go with something different. Something different indeed I did, I got red with white polka dots painted on for the IU basketball season. $10 extra, won't be happening again!! Yes they are super cute but for $10 I could have painted the white polka dots on them myself!
Anyway back to the story, while I was waiting for my turn to head to the foot bath area, I spotted this girl getting her fingernails done and she had the cutest hair style EVER! I usually can take a picture of people without them ever suspecting that I have taken their picture, however, it didn't occur to me to take this chick's picture of her or her hairdo.
My hair was in such disarray and it needed something done to it and soon or I was going to take the scissors out and start chopping away myself at it, and trust me, that is not a good thing. When I do that I want to hide in a deep hole for a very long time rather than go out and face the world. I know you say, it's just hair and it will grow back, right? That is what most of you are thinking, but, to me I don't wear makeup, I don't have to have the best clothes, shoes, etc, but my hair is what makes me feel good. Give that one little thing to me, ok? LOL
I was looking at different websites, what I wanted was short spikey hair, easy to manage and with a little work I could make it look good but in a messy way. I finally found a hair cut that screamed !!KAZI!! on You Tube no less. I bet I watched that video about 10 times before I went to bed. The next day I took some pictures of it so I could show Katrina what it is I wanted. She told me that she could make the pix work to a degree. What she meant by that was that from the last time she colored my hair we had did the all over brown color and 2 highlights blond and a reddish color.
One thing she did that I didn't like/don't like but I sat back and let her do it as part of the process, is cap my highlights. I hate that process! I would pick foils any day hands down! To me, caps hurt and I feel they are a waste of time and energy. But I must say I did gain respect for Katrina while watching her cap my hair, she had a unique process about it all. And the end results are amazing as always!

Holidays are A coming
Posting for Thursday, November 15th, 2012
Starting to see Christmas commercials, hear an occasion Christmas song, yikes! Means Christmas is just around the corner and I have bought 2 gifts so far. I sure hope that doesn't mean that I will be out at the last minute shopping. Seriously, I plan on doing most of my shopping online this year. Lazy, maybe? I hate crowds with a passion. There are a some places I will need to go, thanks to Petsmart when they hurt my Baby, they sent me a gift card and that will be put to good use to get the cats a fancy piece of cat furniture. Shhhh they don't know, so please don't tell them. :)
Of course, the fur kids will have stockings they do every year, this year we have to find one for Tedster. And Pepper is going to get red and green soft paws, wish we could have our pix taken professionally together but I am not sure that will happen.
I am still in awe that Thanksgiving is one week from today. Wow, where did the year go? It has been a great year, I must say, I am thankful for each and every thing that happened this year. Lots of life lessons taught for sure, got rid of excess baggage in more than one area of my life and am oh so thankful for that, gained some new friends that I know God blessed me with when I seemed to need them the most. :) These folks are genuine. It is refreshing after the crap I got rid of. Just sayin.....
Blessed by a wonderful mother, a daughter that I am oh so proud of, my family, friends, job, coworkers, etc.
Enjoy your holidays and it's ok to sing Jingle bells while you are eating turkey!! :)

Not only does it appear that IU is going to have an AWESOME basketball team, thanks to Coach Crean for turning our program around and finding some amazing basketball players for our team this year.....but sweet things happened.....Kentucky got beat by Duke. Not a fan of either, but this time I must give a SHOUT OUT to Duke!! Knocked them off of their high horse early in the season, too bad we aren't playing this year. I understand the Kentucky coach doesn't want to "chance" another C Watt ending game shot. It's ok, we know, who is #1! Go Hoosiers Go!!! Let's bring home another banner!!!

Not a fan of either, but this time I must give a SHOUT OUT to Duke!! Knocked them off of their high horse early in the season, too bad we aren't playing this year. I understand the Kentucky coach doesn't want to "chance" another C Watt ending game shot. It's ok, we know, who is #1! Go Hoosiers Go!!! Let's bring home another banner!!!

Wondering when this bad dream will cease and I will feel like Kazi again. My throat still feels like there is glass in it and my right ear feels like it hurts like it never has before. I just want this to stop.
I promise that when this is over I will take vitamins, and in great numbers. Not more than I should, but enough to keep me healthy! I am so over being sick and I miss my partner in crime at work, Stephani. :)
Can't believe Thanksgiving is next week, where does the time go?

Called to tell my boss that I was still sick with the crud and would be out til the 19th. She gave me information about filing for short term disability because I would be out of work for more than 5 days. Had to go see my family doctor anyway, let him know about the short term disability and he agreed that I needed the time to get better, had to keep off til the 19th.
He examined me again and had already had the report from the ER from the day before. My throat appeared to be a "nasty red" however no strep throat. Don't understand that. Pulse was running high for me, in the 60's, mine is usually in the 40's. My right ear had lots of fluid in it, equals ouch!
After doctor I spent most of the day in bed. This is the life you lead when you are sick!

I've fallen and I couldn't get up....
Posting for Sunday, November 11, 2012
I had slept like 14 hours and got up in the morning on Sunday to go to the bathroom and I fell. I thought of Clara Peller "Ive fallen and can't get up." Only I wasn't laughing, I was crying. I am not sure what happened to me, I guess because of my weakness.
I have had this crud since Wednesday, the 7th. I had originally been getting sick since November 5th only I didn't realize it til the night of the 6th. I went back to bed and slept a couple more hours and I had already decided that if I was still feeling puny I was going to the ER. When I make the decision to the go the ER you know I am SICK! Trust me I am sick! I feel AWFUL.
Spent about 3 hours at Deaconess Gateway, they toyed with keeping me. The doctor I saw had NO bedside manner but he did every test known to make sure I didn't have full fledged pneumnia, he listened to my symptoms, examined me and at the end decided to send me home but he is keeping me off one more week to stay in bed, take my 3 new meds and try to get better. Let me tell you once I am over this crud, I will take more vitamins whatever it takes for this not to happen to me again for a very long time!
I feel like crap! Going to go lie down. I appreciate the kind emails, texts and offers to drop things off.

New Symptoms
Posting for Saturday, November 10, 2012
A trip to Dr Yagodich seemed to change my first diagnosis. I had went to St Mary's convenient care, one of my all time least fave places, on Wednesday because that is the day that my doctor is out of the office. They said I had a stomach virus, ok, I will admit it probably started out like that.
Upon my examination at Dr Yagodich's office, he said that I was beginning to show signs of bronchitis and had a touch or start of pneumonia. That was what I was afraid of! In January 2008 I had been hospitalized with pneumonia and some of my symptoms felt eerily familiar! He gave me Cipro and told me to get plenty of bed rest. I haven't been this sick in a long time, I asked the question many have asked me, if this had anything to do with my flu shot that I had 2 weeks ago, he said no "this is a whole different monster." Indeed it is.
I slept most of Saturday thinking I would get better. The short time I was up walking around on Saturday, I felt worse, much worse. I however had high hopes for better things to come on Sunday.

Waiting to call the doctor
Posting for Friday, November 9th, 2012
So I get up to feed Teddy and let the girls, Sasha and Baby out to do their business and read their morning paper, and I felt so weak I thought I was going to pass out. Again my throat feels like it has chards of glass in it, I am shaking, my ears feel clogged and hurt, my jaw hurts, my chest and back hurt but I have no coughing which is unusual for me. I pictured myself at my desk momentarily and knew that I couldn't make it through an 8 hour day and I doubted very seriously any one would want me breathing on them or around them, so I called my boss again, she said she could tell I got worse again. So here I sit waiting for my doctor's office to open so i can get some decent meds in me and begin the course to feeling human again. Amen.
I will report what he says later. Thanks for the emails, texts, cards, greatly appreciated! I feel like I have been hit HARD by a tornado!

I forgot to mention that when I was still sitting in Convenient Care's parking lot I called my boss to let her know I would try to make it in by Friday but the doctor had written me off til then said I wouldn't be able to return to my regular duties til Friday.
I slept a lot on Thursday, you know the kind of sleep that you feel like a bear hibernating for several months? That is how I was. And I had my precious Pepper by my side. You all know how much I love that cat by now, but she knew I was sick and she cuddled with me when she knew I needed to make sure I was still alive and when I needed to feel loved, and other times she went to curl up beside me just a short distance away to still let me know she was there if I needed her! Animals are soo precious! I am thankful for mine! All of them.
I managed to haul myself out of bed for a couple of hours and watch tv and sit up straight. Thinking I would have little issues going back to work on Friday. I even ate a small bite and it stayed down.
Went to bed at 9 and slept all night until Teddy became rowdy and thought he needed to eat at an ungodly hour.......

Waking up on Wednesday, I couldn't hardly breathe, swallow, or stand up. I new I was in trouble. Called my boss to let her know I wouldn't be in. Took a looong nap, got up, and if you know me even slightly you know I don't go to the doctor unless i absolutely have to, and I knew I had to. My throat felt like I was swallowing glass, my chest hurt so bad, I had chills really bad, my ears felt like they wanted to hurt, it was awful. The most awful thing of all of this, is that my doctor is off on Wednesdays and I had to settle for St Mary's Convenient Care.
There were 5 people in front of me that needed to be seen yet it took them 2.5 hours to see me. I was livid! The doctor was nice enough but i still go by my opinion that they have a list they have and every other person they see have a different "illness" too much of a conveyor belt for me but I had no choice. Plus I needed my hydration levels checked. They said I had a stomach virus, if I hadn't driven myself, I would have gotten a shot onsite to help me feel mucho better, but since I drove myself, I got a scrip for suppositories instead. I only had to take one and that did eventually seem to help.
I slept alll night. When I woke I still felt like poo.

A Very LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG, NO GOOD MONDAY
Posting for Monday, November 5th, 2012
So I worked a 12.5 shift on Monday, 4.5 hours of overtime, that part is always good. But seriously, I have come to the conclusion that those long days just aren't for me. I used to do a lot of them at AG and it seemed to be OK. Here, I am 5 months into landing the job and I think I have tried to do too much too soon. I am backing down to Saturdays only. For sanity purposes.
Yes, the money is nice. Yes, it gives me extra to do extra things. But in the end if you work all the time when are you going to be able to enjoy spending any money you will be too exhausted to go anywhere to spend the money.
Then the things that I have done wrong flow in. I understand that, I really do, it's the procedure I have a beef with. Ok, you send me things that I did wrong, but we never go over them, and I am supposed to go on and hope I never do dumb things like that again.
I had one call monitor from QA which did brighten my day, however. Finally, something I did right. Or at least that is how it felt.
For those of us that worked all those bajillion hours and agreed to take a 30 minute lunch the company provided lunch for us from the Smiling Moose, which was very nice. But by the time we got to our lunch part of it was missing, go figure, because they put it in the refrigerator for all to see and steal. I don't give a fig about a missing cookie or chips, it was just the principle of the matter!
No more long days for me for awhile. Yes, if that makes me a wuss, I guess I am. There is much more to life than working tons of OT.

Brittanee left at promptly 9am to head back home with Gina. I had wanted to go to Bath & Bodyworks to get some of their famous candles that were on sale. When they aren't on sale, I think they are too expensive, but you basically get 2 for the price of one when the sale hits periodically so I must go and invest in some. And they had sent me a coupon if I spent so much I would get $10 off of my purchase, so in essence, I got 4 candles and paid for 3.
I am a sucker for Bath & Body Works and love all the smells in there! I chose to go to the one in Hendo to not have to fight the Mall traffic, and they are always so nice there and I don't have to climb over people or get shoved around. So that is another plus. I felt like a kid in the candy store smelling all the candles. I must admit however, the scents this year so far, did not blow me away. I did get 4 candles and I like their smell, but I remember last year, I had such a hard time just settling for 4. This year it was easier, because some of the scents made me want to hurl, and that was just by lifting the lid not even smelling them while lit.
My mom decided to go with me, she doesnt like the candle store and would freak if she knew the prices of such divineness so I dropped her off at Kmart to look around. I also went into Goody's, not one of my fave stores, but I do like to go in there from time to time if I am in the neighborhood and see what they got. As suspected, they had a whole lotta junk!
Then we headed back to the Ville, nothing to terribly exciting but I spent some $ got some candles and hand soap and then we watched our shows. It was just good to be home and get some relax time in.....ahhhh.

A surprise visit
Posting for Saturday, November 3rd, 2012
Last night when I got home from Hacienda, I got a call from Brittanee, saying that she was on her way home for a spur of the moment visit, only this time she wasn't driving, her friend Gina was coming home had stopped to look at Brittanee's new apartment and then the two of them decided that Brittanee was coming along too for the weekend.
I worked 5 hours and then the fun began, I first took Pepper to Spoiled Rotten to get her nails did. This time she got blue glitter soft paws, she looks adorable as usual! Next month she will get red and green alternating colors we already got to see them! How cute will that be for Christmas? Love that we found this concept!
Then came home to pick up my mom and Brittanee. My mom and I had a prior appointment to get our nails did at Eva's, love that pampering. We don't do it often, but when we do, it is great! To me, not liking feet, I could never touch feet for a living! Grooooossssss!! But they do a fantastic job! My toes are pretty and my mom's are too.
After that we all agreed (can you believe it) to have dinner at the Smiling Moose. It was yummo and the best part of all they have my fave chips Miss Vickie's Sea Salt chips. :) Love!
Went to Target briefly to get the Tedster some food. Then off to Newburgh Walmart to do some major damage and we were in there for what seemed like forever.
All in all was a fun day, just jam packed and exhausting with little sleep in the last few days!

Hacienda Reunion
Posting for Friday, November 2nd, 2012
It all started with me being stressed out from a loooooong day of overtime on the phone at my job when I thought "gee I need a drink." And so the plan was hatched. A get together, and we picked the location according to the drink selection :)
The players were me, Becky, Sue, Amanda & Dana. We had a good time chatting and hanging out. Always fun when seeing old and young friends! Then they all left me, literally, as we were walking out the door, I heard someone call my name, I turned around and went to talk to Jerri, or as I like to call her JHo. And her husband, the rockstar, Dustin. Seemed like a nice guy and they were a very cute couple.
Looking forward to the next time we can hang out, I miss my peeps! And love them!!

Not feeling sorry for people....
Posting for Thursday, November 1st, 2012
Starting to work in the Gas and Electric company, I wondered if I would feel sorry for the people that had their services shut off when it was cold outside, for the majority I can honestly say I do not. That sounds harsh you might think, and you all know, that I am a sucker for a sob story on MOST occasions, but the ones that do tug at my heart strings are the ones that are genuinely struggling like the elderly and the ones that are unemployed and 'trying' to get a job.
The ones that I have no absolute sympathy for are the ones ordering food at a drive thru, puffing on a cigarette, etc while they are telling you all the reasons they can't pay their utility bill. Ok, lay off the Colt 45, the manicures, the dance lessons for your brats, the happy hour every week, and whatever else it is you deem so important that you can't pay your gas bill, then want to call me and bitch about being cold. Nope, not an ounce of sympathy is coming your way. I say get extra blankets, dress in layers, and oh yea, if that isn't good enough I am sure you can find someone to dig you out of the mess you got yourself in, just to fall back into that same old pattern in a few months.
Wow, did I just say this? I used to be a "nice" collector, I know, an oxymoron right? Ahhh those were the days....

Happy Halloween
Posting for Wednesday, October 31st, 2012
Ghosts, goblins, witches, scary monsters unite! I didn't see a single trick or treater, and that is saying something. Not that I am used to seeing many trick or treaters in the hood, but I am used to a work environment where people could bring their kids to trick or treat. Some of that stuff I miss, but all in all, I am in a better work place, this I know.
I was invited to a couple of Halloween gigs, just not really my thing. Maybe if I weighed about 120 lbs. ?? Who knows? Besides I wear my costume each and every day. :)
