What is real

This entire work thing seems pretty backwards to me. I am sitting
here drinking my tea, shirt and tie on, while looking out of the
window. The grass is back and I can see some green on the trees. I
want to sit here all day and explain to the beans all of what is going
on outside. Explain why the birds are back and the squirrels are full
of hustle. Heck, probably even take a nice long walk. Instead of
that I am going to hustle out of my door and get my little car in line
with all of the other cars to take me to a place that I am still
deciding if I want to be there or not. This work thing is getting in
the way of life. It is necessary, and even sometimes rewarding, yet
not what I like to deam as the important part of my day. The hours
spent with family are where the life part happens. It is only
Wednesday, awesome.

Size em up

How do you not come to a new job and size people up. Especially
dealing with sales and sales equations. How do you not look around
and see who is going to be in your way for that number one spot. Who
is a piker? Who comes in at 9am signs in and goes to get their coffee
and bs while I am on the phones working the magic! Who is who and
what is what? Let's get it on.

Happy Friday people.

Drive in...

The drive in to work was kind of brutal today. I am here a bit early
ready to get my blogging straight. I can't tell you that i wasn't
Teary eyed for a good bit of my commute. Now I know what wifey had to
deal with going back to work. I always knew it was hard for her,
really hard or her. Now I know that it is really hard for me. I
guess that is some of what makes a good parent. To quote a good band
" it is so hard to say goodbye to yesterday." the beans asked my why
I was dressed up today and I said that daddy had to go to work. Her
reply was, well, who is gonna take care of me? When I told her nana
and pop pop were back on duty she was pretty excited and started to
pack all of the toys that she wanted to take with her. She gave me
hugs an kisses, cheeks an noses, butterflies and eyebrows, pounds and
hi fives- and then I made her do them all again.

Wish me luck! I am back to the grind!

Work

I start work again this week. I will be doing admissions/sales for a
tech school/ college and really hope to be able to get back to
blogging on a more consistent basis. I am not thrilled about leaving
my mr. Mom post, yet I have to do what I have to do. It was a
tremendous 5 months and I learned more from that little girl than I
ever thought possible. It is with a heavy heart that daddy heads to "
work " this week.

Ahhhhh

Nothing quit like sitting in your car watching the rain melt the snow
away. Another storm is on the horizon and we are in the mix of rain
and sleet right now.

I am waiting for another interview at a potential job that wants to
pay me far less than I deserve, awesomeness!!! You know what really
grinds my gears? Well, I will tell you. I have a resume that has
been sent in via email, I bring a hard copy with me and yet most
companies want me to fill out an application which essentially means
writting all of that information again. This drives me to HULK
proportions of nutso. I want to lose my mind and just ask these
people- are you serious? Really? WTF? Do you have an analyst back
there to go over my writting? Arg. Well, off I go! To rewrite
information that they already have and that I have brought a
professional copy of! Sweeeet!

WTH

When I first heard that Christopher Robin was no longer part of Winnie
the pooh - I went a bit nutso! I figured ok the beans will never see
this new chick anyway. I had to lay the law down and make my feelings
known that if anyone brings in anything with the ' new girl ' it will
be tossed out. I have been able to keep that promise, and yes I
still don't know her name and will never learn it! Old school people,
that is just how i do it.

The beans does not watch much tv, yet daddy does need to shower and
shave. Hence, we have a few acceptable shows that she does watch. One
of them is Mickey mouse fun house. When the heck did the song
change? Wth. The cadence is different the words are different and it
is about to be on the do no watch list!

Happy Friday!

Hmm, what to do

I am sitting here at my kitchen table -phone in my watching the beans
play and dance. Not much better than this. I have Minnie ears on and
she only references me as Minnie and she is Mickey. No dad no daddy
just Minnie and when I take the ears off she asks where they are,
hilarious. I need to get back to work although not much is out
there, and the not much is certainly not good pay.

The snow is killing my knees and the weather is not helping me to run
outside. I am stuck in the basement ( dingy basement) on my treadmill
watching episodes of Seinfeld. My speed is up and my distance is up,
yet I am bored out of my mind. The cold and metal in my knees just
don't mix very well, yet I will have to get out there soon. I have
been doing some exercise DVDs that have been amazing for cross
training - this summer I will be mowing the lawn sans shirt!

Life is good!

Oh and I have a friend ( old friend ) who posted a blog on facebook
that I want to read and keep up with, however my blog is secretish. I
am sure it is no big deal, yet sometimes you just like your worlds no
to collide. Or even your worlds 3 times removed not to collide.

Oh and I still haven't figured out the spacing issue sending in posts
from my phone. Obviously.
