I knew I forgot to post something...

Anne is back. Her friend's mom asked her to move out the day that school was out for the summer. We are trying to clean out the smallest bedroom, which has become a storage room, so she can have her own room. It would be really nice if she helped... Once the kids have all hubby's computer stuff out of the room, I need to patch the plaster in a few spots and wash down the walls so we can repaint it. It has been a pink since we purchased the house 15 years ago.

Work and school

I'm bored! That is a good thing, as I am at work. Not bored would mean very busy due to network or hardware problems. But still, I think I would like a little work to do. I may have to re enroll and sign up for courses at George Mason to try and finish my bachelor's degree. It has only been 24 years since I started my degree. :)

adding an email to my journal

How the heck do I do that on blogger? I'm so confused. :)

My job

For months, there has been conflict between me and the head of our other phone staff at another office. The other staff operates as a call center-they create the repair ticket from a list of questions and then pass the ticket on to techs for trouble shooting and resolution. Those of us still on site create the tickets, but we also trouble shoot everything we can think of before we send it to the more experienced techs. This means we are on the phone longer than the recommended time. With my recent evaluation and pay raise, my boss here told me he has recieved favorable comments from our customers on my willingness to stay on the phone with our customers and not hurry them. Gee, I think I'll keep the VIP's happy...

Daylight savings time

Who thought this was a good idea? Wasn't it Thomas Jefferson? It was so hard to drag myself out of bed this morning and get ready for work. I am not a morning person!

On the upside, I will see the sun today without having to walk out of the building on a break. I'm tired of winter, especially the illnesses.

Rotten appliances!

The darn dishwasher died. It was 32 months old. I called costco and asked if they knew how long the warrantee was in effect. They told me if I wasn't happy with it, to return the dishwasher. I woman-handled it out to the van and brought it back to costco. They gave me a costco cash card for the entire purchase price. Unfortunately, they do not have dishwashers in the stores right now, so I have to order one off the website. It will be $100 more than the original one was, with shipping. Yeah!

New blog

My old one is still on Live Journal, but there are so many blogs on blogspot that I read. Maybe I'll post on both?
