I didn't think there was anything worse than writing a resume. I was wrong writing a cover letter is a lot worse...it's hard to promote yourself in a positive and professional manner when all you want to do is make sarcastic comments...

I agree! I really don't like this new way of doing applications for jobs. I am never sure the email goes through and I just like it so much easier to fill out the old job forms.

Nice hats. I think the “fake" Easter bunny is lucky it wasn't wearing goggles!


Yvonne, did you see the grant opportunity that I posted in personal promo section? I'm serious that I think you should go for it!!!!



Nah...I have no ambition or inclination for that kind of stuff. But thanks for the vote of confidence.

Thank you

No, thank you for joining us! So what is happening in your little slice of the world?

Here it was funny, the sky was cloudy as usual and we are under a snow watch. I went into the nieghbor's house and let her three dogs out. At that point not a snowflake in sight and I was starting to wonder about the forecast. By the time I came back around to the back door of her house to go make my calls, it was a mini blizzard. :D Tiny tiny flakes, but a solid wall of them. So far the snow is not staying except in hidey holes of the grass.

Is it still snowing? We are supposed to get snow on Monday, Uggg!!

Dagny's leash came undone when I was taking her outside to go potty and she realized it and ran around the yard like a maniac and would even run near me and then jump out of my grasp. Then just when she was about to bolt to the front yard she abruptly stopped to do her business so I was able to catch her. But it was so scary because I was so panicky because I could not get her if I wanted to!! I am not used to that because Reagan is so slow!!

Don't you just hate the chase-me-chase-me game? Misty is like that too when she doesn't want to be caught.

Does it count as exercising if I am eating ice cream and watching the insanity workout discs?

I have been slacking on Insanity! It is so hard to be motivated when it feels like the middle of winter!! My friend uses a personal trainer to get her butt in shape before we all spend our days in our bathing suits at our local lake and I saw her running with him today and was thinking uh oh.....

I like Zumba and the elliptical but otherwise I don't exercise. Especially insanity as that is just too hard on my knees.

Omg, we could be work out buddies!! The only thing I use at the gym is the elliptical and they have the row of elipticals facing the weights so its a nice view too. My daughter and I take a Zumba class on Minday nights together. It's so much fun, I love Zumba!!
