Wednesday Catch-up

No Snow!

Areas around us got a little bit of snow, but we got nothing.  Actually, Thomas said that for five minutes Tuesday morning there was a little mix of sleet and snow where he works, but I don't think it got as far as our house.  Well, pretty soon I'm going to use some of Donna's cute winter graphics even if it is like Spring here.  (I think I have crocuses coming up!)

I still have a headache.  I had it all night Monday and all day yesterday.  It is dulled now, but still there.  I've decided it's dull enough to go ahead and ignore it.  My morning caffeine has seemed to help a lot and I was at least able to eat breakfast.  I have a couple of errands to run and some housework to do, so maybe some activity will speed it on its way.

Thomas's boss is putting his name in the hat for a forman position.  He's actually considering it this time.  Always before when he worked there he refused any suggestion of taking a white hat, and he let his bosses know that he wasn't interested, but this time he's considering it.  I have no problem with it.  He's a good worker, knows all the positions and skills inside out and he's good with the other workers.  He takes nothing off of them, but he's fair.  He's trained and tested other employees before and acted as lead man.  I'm a little surprised that he's allowing his name to be considered, though, because always before he said he didn't want to have to deal with the politics there.  His main concern, he told me, was if he'd make as much as he does now with all the overtime he is working.  I guess we'll see what happens.  (He's also had a bunch of other departments trying to lure him to come work for them, but he wouldn't dare do that to his boss -- at least not this soon!)

Well, I have caught up on all my emails except my alerts, so now I'm going to catch up with them and maybe make a few more entries.  Hope everyone is having a good week and that the rest of you (and there were quite a few) who had complained of headaches earlier in the week are enjoying a headache-free day!
