I Got Fired!...and other tales.........

Hi Gang!

I have this hidden counter on my blog & I haven't checked it in a few months. I figure no one even looks at this dumb blog anymore!! But I see that you are all still popping in from time to time. It tells me how many new visitors I have & how many "repeat" visitors I have. So thanks for not giving up on me!!!!!!!!

Yes, it's true.........I got fired from work today. It's been crazy for the last 6 months. New boss, very crazy guy. VERY. He stressed me out so much that my back went out on me. I was out a week, then worked part time for 4 hours, increasing 1 hour per week until I was back up to some 11 hour days even!! I couldn't quit, because there are no jobs & I need unemployment. My boss gave me a "warning" a month ago. LONG story, you won't get it here! But the short story is that I'm thrilled I'm gone now, I will get unemployment & even go & knit again. I do have to be careful about my back, as sitting is very difficult. Between that & the work stress, I haven't been knitting or blogging.

I'm also hoping to get back in some Bible studies & go to the gym again.

A friend of mine gave me her old camera that supposedly takes great digital pictures. As you know I suck with all the pictures I've taken for this blog!! It's been sitting around for about 6 weeks. I will finally have time to sit down & figure it out soon! Still not a priority for me yet though.

Thanks for popping in still. I can't believe you haven't left me!!

Oh.......one more thing........I scrolled down & went to my older posts & saw that pie I made last year (actually I made 2!) & I'm thinking blackberries will be ready for picking in about 3 weeks..........but I still have some in the freezer from last year.............I'm hungry, wish I could have a piece now! I'm a very good cook, you know............. :)
