Go on...

that this is the end of your car sage. It sounds like the previous guy just wanted to keep making money off of you. Hopefully everything is good to go now.

I'm not so convinced it's that, but more than he has lousy mechanics working for him. I kept using the word mechanic when in reality he is the owner of the place. My bad!

So far, so good. I drove my car today to run some errands and *knock on wood* everything seems fixed and well!

Glad it seems to be working for you

So we're in the middle of snow storm #2 so I'm assuming we're in for a long snowy winter

You’re welcome

Stay safe Sandy! Hey, it might be a white Christmas for you guys

I officially turned down that job today and I was so nervous that they would be awkward about it but the guy was lovely about it. Things have worked out so well, I’m guaranteed ten extra hours at my current job now and I’m applying for another seven hour position that has opened up internally, it’s great to know that they’re willing to give me extra hours because they didn’t want to lose me

TFTNT!

Fiona, that's so awesome Congrats, and good luck

Sandy, stay safe and warm!

Candace, hopefully it's all good now with your car!

[Sandy0401]

That’s awesome, Fiona . Glad all is working out and now it’s a little less pressure on learning to drive and getting a car you can go at your pace!.

Storms over and temps rose today so of course our snow is officially melting. I’m sure this has only been the start of it all though and I shouldn't complain about the snow leaving as fast as it’s come because after last year I’m not ready for that type of cold yet.

Thanks guys

Glad the snow is melting already Sandy!

[Sandy0401]

I can't believe it's almost December 32 days left of the year

Where has 2018 gone?

Happy weekend everyone! Anybody got any plans?

[Copop]

No plans - just an extra rehearsal.

What about all of you?

[Sandy0401]

Just work for me lol

[-x-Lilac-x-]

I worked this morning at an event for work (though technically I’m on holiday so volunteered my time, which I didn’t mind) and now I’m watching Christmas movies on Netflix. Might put my Christmas tree up this weekend.

[Sandy0401]

We're gonna do some decorating this weekend, I think. It's going to be pretty decent out so it'll be easy to put the outside lights up .

Welp, Phil now has bleeding on the brain so we have to wait til the end of January for him to go for an MRI to decide the next step(s) to take. I was telling my boss and he is just so great, he told me when I find out more to let him know so I can have the week of his surgery (he'll probably need it) off and also said if anything between now and then changes to ask either two co-workers to cover before calling in and than call him. Hopefully nothing happens before that though.

[-x-Lilac-x-]

Oh no, poor Phil. Sending big hugs to you guys Glad your boss is understanding, at least you don’t have to stress about that.

[Sandy0401]

I am very grateful for this job. I always talk about wanting another job or a better paying one but he works with me sooo well these things make me value them as an employer. He gets that we have time yet at the same time anything could happen so I appreciate that so much. The two who typically cover me won't be happy but the one I'll tell tomorrow and the other one can be a bit ditzy (I love her to pieces but she'll think it's happening now) so I'll wait on her. Hopefully come January 25th the MRI can show a change or something. As long as nothing happens now with the holiday's I'll be satisfied.
