i went to work
 
ha!!! i got bored staying home & went job hunting. i started yesterday. all the training is done on the computer. my neck hurts, my back hurts & my eyes are killing me. all this pain because i got bored at home. it has been yrs since i worked outside the house. things are so different than they used to be. when i get a routine worked out i will be back here alot more than i have in the pass few weeks. between my brother & job hunting i have not had a lot of time lately. my prayers have been with all my friends & family here.i do not ever forget you.

Good for you, Hope!! I thought you had been quieter because of all the stuff going on there, and I'm glad it was doing something good for yourself instead.

Whoever hired you doesn't yet know how lucky they are!!!

Take care of you, we'll hold your seat and have the coffee ready whenever you are.

Hugs

Good for you!! The $$ I make at work isn't great, either, but it does wonders for my self-esteem.

You'll get through the computer thing just fine. 40 hours may seem long, but think about all the 40 hours of really bad things that you've gotten through. I like your attitude about thinking it will be fun. I think that's why I like my job so much - most of the time I have fun and I've met some really great people.

Hugs and prayers!
