Old age

One of my clients told me the other day that her mother always said "Old age is a curse, but what the hell else is there??" I only quote her now because I couldn't get into make comments or update here at all on Tuesday and now, for the life of me, I can't remember what I was going to write about. LMTO!

I just called and bugged the insurance company. They say it will take 14-21 days for the claim to be finalized. I will just keep following it online until Jan 26. If it's not updated by then, I'll be calling again. Because my biological clock is ticking like THIS!

The boss came around with the "notifications" this morning which just means he told us all how much our raises and bonuses are this year. 3% raise for da GEEK! Yay! and the bonus is up about 10% over last years, so I'm pleased with that. My rating for the year is a 4 (on a scale of 1-5) Last year it was 5 but EVERYBODY was getting a 5 unless they were screwing up. So they re-skewed the scales again, back to where they are supposed to be. 3 is a good employee. 4 is a super star. 5 is a super duper rock star. I'm okay with being a 4 in that case.

Nothing else new. I'm still having back spasms. Steve is enjoying his new job (he's doing the same thing, just for a new company). Stef is super cute as ever.

OK, Like you didn't tell me Steve got the job!!! Kellogs right??? That's good news for you, huh?

Congrats on the raise!!! Can't complain about that.

No - not Kellogg's - just another maintenance position for a different apartment complex. I'd be dancing in the street if he'd gotten Kellogg's.

Congrats on the extra moolah. I just found out today that my kiddos got kicked off their insurance and actually haven't been on it since September. Nice, huh??

Yay for getting a raise! I bet you are a freakin' super star there!

And that was funny about old age.
