This Weekend

I have nothing planned except cleaning and stitching and catching up on the DVR (which of course lends itself well to stitching time). I've been working on organizing my WIPs and I've come up with a portable storage system. On the Snowflakes front I'm waiting for an order from Needlecraft Corner because I've run out of two of the Crescent Colours - Bamboo and English Ivy. If you do this one, buy two of those. Work is getting better; not quite so many people freaking out but some of our customer service reps are being stupid. Part of a conversation last night; Customer: "I asked her politely not to raise her voice at me and she said to me 'I can raise my voice at you any time I want to.' If I could prove who it was exactly who said that I'd write them up. Stupid stuff just making my work life difficult. Half the calls we get are the result of poor training or just someone being stupid. Oh, and I also finished the scrapbook page I was working on, but I can't get a decent picture - I'll post something this weekend on that. Off to have coffee and breakfast and hopefully wake up sometime today before I start at 330. :)

This Is What You Get For Not Paying Attention

I changed (obviously) the template and didn't pay attention when it said 'please save your previous template b/c all your links will be lost if you don't.' So....I'm in the process of putting you back in the links list. If you'd like to be added to my sidebar, just send me a comment with the link to your blog copied and I'll add ya.

On the stitching front: I've done more on Snowflakes - got the word Winter in there and part of the snow. I also prepped the fabric for TWs 12 days so I'll be working on that some this weekend. Supposedly it's supposed to sleet but we'll see how that goes. On nights like this I'm glad I work at home.

I have actually decided what to do on the professional front. I've been thinking about this for awhile and I've decided I'm going to do one of the online courses for medical transcriptionist and get certified. As long as I'm working 330-midnight on my main job I should be able to find something part time during the day after I complete the course to gain experience. I can type 90-100 wam and I'm at least now familiar with all the medication names. And this would be something I can eventually work into a work at home situation as well. The only other thing I need to do is get a laptop - that way I'll be able to work anywhere (like the Pitt - drinking coffee). :)

Now to finishing setting up my wireless access point - I'll get it done one of these days.

Snowflakes Progress Pic

This one is going very fast - but then again I didn't have anything scheduled on Sunday so all I did was stitch for most of the afternoon. I cancelled my overtime for today (sinuses ugh, I'm about to try all that Neti Pot stuff to see if it works). I rescheduled the painters until next Tuesday so I can make sure everything's prepped - furniture away from the walls and the pc with all the wires hopefully set up on wireless and in the bedroom by then. I can't believe that I didn't remember that I needed a broadband router to connect to the wireless router to set up a wireless access point. That's been ordered from Geeks.com and it's on it's way.
