good morning!
I am having a hard time catching up! I wrote a long response this morning, and now I don't see it. Yesterday was a LONG day of driving with DD17. We went to her 2nd choice college for a visit. She liked the campus. I am not sure that she's looking at it for the right reasons, but I'm trying to stand back and let her make her own decisions about this. We (unlike with DS19) have a GOOD relationship, she talks to me, allows me to voice my opinions, but in the end, it is her choice, I just feel like she's REACTING to the 1st choice declining her instead of continuing to be proactive about her opportunities.
Anyway, I'm going to try and catch up again. Sidney is like having a baby in the house. This morning I was rushed to try and answer since he was whining in his crate (which is in our bedroom with a sleeping DH!)
Christine, thinking of you today. Hoping this is the beginning of a new pain free beginning
Carole, I would feel the same about any coworker being allowed to take advantage of the system, regardless of the reason. I hope you can get some strategies to help you cope with it, though. Wish there was an easy answer. How is Tracy these days, back to her old self?
Jo, what kind of company is it that you work for? I am also interested in what the costs were for coaching with Heather. I went through the process of signing up for the initial discussion with her, but never got to that point where I found out what it would cost. I was considering cancelling my HSM membership, trying to be true to the Dave Ramsey budgeting system, but lo and behold the call Monday talked about how she may be going up on her pricing and also capping the community and you may not be able to get back in. So, I'm budgeting it in my FUN money, and I'll be saving the money I was spending on WW, anyway.
Gabrielle, the trainer comes tomorrow. I am really hoping we can make some progress with him quickly. I actually had to say no to a work Christmas party. Luckily, she is a dog lover and totally understood my choice.
