A great morning.

Its 9:45 AM...

I have:

- Been to the gym, busted out 3 miles on the treadmill rocking out and thinking I am way cooler than I am....

- Taken a shower

- Sat down and had 2 cups of coffee (really underrated sometimes I think)

-Called and found out my student loan consolidation is being processed and I don't have to start all over again.

- Called to make sure everything is going to go smoothly in transitioning from full time to on call... left a message.

- Breathed a sigh of relief b/c pay stubs posted today and they did in-fact use my sick time for my week in SF. (thank goodness)

- Realized I am working a whole heck of a lot on November, and although that means very little in the free time category... It gives me a sense of calm too b/c frankly a lot (aka the majority) of the stress and anxiety I have had in the last week and a half has been related to money   (student loans may be consolidated, may not, trip to SF, trip for Christmas, etc) And working a whole heck of a lot will help ease that.

- My job is ridiculous... and its even more ridiculous b/c I get paid roughly $1 less an hour then I did when I was working Overtime at the other job.... seriously something wrong with that.

    - I will be getting a concession phone, which is just kinda cool but again totally unnecessary.
    - Apparently, via co-worker, part time bennies are a load of crock and she says I shouldn't waste my
      money there until I move to full time its like 14X the amount per paycheck for a PT employee vs
      FT.... hmmmm

- Its time to be running, and working out, and moving... I mean, I feel better all around when I do it. Its  calms my mind and makes me realize how blessed I am, I am healthy, in a loving relationship, Wonderful friends all over. I have a wonderfully unbelievable place to live and rest my head, I have a full time job with health and dental insurance, and now a 2nd job... in a state that unemployment is nearing double digits....

And now I get to go get ready for work....

Such an odd concept for me... wearing dangling earrings... skirts.... makeup.... bobby pins...
I think I got a little institutionalized this past year... lol


Oh and the pumpkin pie... dud... : (
Tell you about it and will try again later today I suppose...

Happy Halloween!! (and I will post a picture of " The Great Pumpkin" sitting on our front porch!)
