Hump Day!

No one wants to hear me talk about my last week of work, again, but hey!  How can I not?  I have just two more days!!! 

One of my former workmates called me last night and talked for over a half hour about how much she likes her new job!  A lot of people from Doc. Management have gone to this particular company, and I have resisted, but she is about to pull me over to the dark side.  There would be pros and cons to it, but I'm going to have to seriously give it some thought.  The money is better, and I think I'd like the work.  But not until I've had my summer vacation, thank you very much!  The company I work for for two more days is the largest health insurance company in the country as of last summer when a merger was comleted; the company that a lot of our people have been going to (because they've been hiring a lot!) is another very large healthcare company in downtown Louisville, which just happens to be where it was founded, as well (and anyone reading from my area knows what company I'm talking about).  I used to know people who worked there who hated it unequivically!  But they must have done some serious re-vamping because even people I know who complain about anything and everything having nothing but good to say about it.

I won't make any hasty decisions, but I'll keep it in mind.  Right now we call it the "(my company's name) Reunion Hall".  If I gave out its first initial any American reading this would know what company I mean!  I have other options, though, so no decisions yet. 

Well, we're having a quiet evening here today.  I should be outside cutting grass while Thomas trims, but it's just too humid, and my allergies are bothering me.  Actually, mostly, it's just that I feel sort of lazy and don't really want to do anything tonight!  I have been doing my crunches, and will try to complete a full 30 days, but on July 1st I am going to start a new 30-day challenge, even though I won't be done with the June 30-day challenge on July 1st.  I'll fill you in on what it is later.  For now, good night, and I'll be back tomorrow!

Oh, P.S.  One of our former team members who left a few weeks ago to go to another company got great news yesterday.  She and her husband have been trying to adopt for two years.  On Tuesday they got a call and were told they could pick up their baby boy on Wednesday!!!  He was born Monday night, and, as far as I know, he is now at home with them (and I'm sure the new grandparents, aunts and uncles) being loved and cuddled and just one of the luckiest babies ever!  They are a great couple who will offer a child a wonderful home.  I am so happy for them!

The work decision is a hard one. I'd like to say just take the summer off and then start looking but then again, you might need to jump on the band wagon before it fills up too. The best of luck with whatever you decide! Martha :-)
