Is any couch better than none? Welcome to Couch 41

No granite, your fine... The couch has been slow latley.

thanks lola just making sure .must just be me lol . i really am trying to be a good girl here

Granite you are always a good girl. i should be at work already but with this new thing, im kinda overwhelmed. I just got a call from a girlI know on the team of the new job and she said the girl that was going to train me just reaigned. Ugg what am I walkkng into?

i think you will kick *** with whatever you walk into .are you home now.so what will you be doing in this new job

Actually a lot of it was in the film rolling room. No chemicals, but there's got to be a dirty "film rolling" joke in there somewhere.

What a week I am having. PDOC's office just called and cancelled my appointment for today.

Morning all.

so i am going to a scrap booking retreat this weekend from tomorrow morning to Sunday afternoon. i am going to come home at night instead of sleep over because i think i will need the break from people. kind of nervous but the person running the thing kind of knows my issues and has told me she has put me at a table with some good people. it should be a good time .i am confident with my crafting so I'm not so shut down when people try to talk to me . the person running it told me i will be able to come and go as i need. i am overwhelmed with trying to figure out what to pack and bring with me .but i think it will be great fun... and bunches of T points

morning fixated

Thanks Granite.. Now i need to believe that

guess ill just be here dancing like nobody is watching

do you know what you will be doing

Cleaning up a giant mess from what I gather.... Ill be helping to move one product line from one accounting system to another, as I know both systems and the product. I'm asking for more money.

right especially if you are cleaning up everyones mess.

good morning all! I was out of town for a few days and I'm hopelessly behind on the couch. I don't think I shall be able to catch up. ah well! I have a mini-session with t in about 20 minutes, I'm not really sure why I asked for it this week, I don't feel like I need it. I'll make good use of it though. I'm thinking about applying for a training assistant program that we have at work, it's something in addition to our actual job, I would be occasionally assisting with training classes if I get accepted into the program. I talked to my supervisor about it yesterday and she was very excited for me at the prospect. She's going to write me one of the letters of recommendation that I need. I've never liked speaking in front of a group before but somethign has changed inside me, I don't find the thought terrifying anymore, I find it exciting to think about doing.

Hugs to all yes you too SD (teehee) and I'll be dropping by the couch after work tonite as well. Off to prepare for t. Have a great day couchies!

that is awsome art .talking to a bunch of people and all at once when they are looking at me (shudder)

well Ill be needing another babysitter for tonight, last night in the hotel...

going out to dinner with hubby tonight .his boss got us a gift card to this really upscale restaurant for tonight yummy

sounds awesome Granite.... I'm gonna be jealous.

thanks granite! i reacted the same way as recently as about 6 months ago, i would have done anything to get out of it, but now I am looking forward to the opportunity. I just can't say enough good things about therapy - it's been such an incredible journey so far. I 'm so glad I didn't quit when I thought I wanted to.

That's awesome, Art. There's a lesson in there for all of us, I think.

most of you have seen pic of my craft room how do i fit a room full of scrapbook stuff in two small cases lol. hummmm what to bring with me is proving quite difficult to decide. totally overwhelmed. i need to believe if i forget something i can come home and get it it is only a 15 min ride i can just make one trip if i make a list of things i forgot lol. can you tell i am all excited about this and nervous at the same time. i swear a year ago i would have never thought about doing something like this on my own . BREATHE it will be fun lol

Granite....this sounds exciting... do you know what your are going to scrap book? I did some a long time ago and I remember the person saying that if you break the pages up into groups it makes it easier... like I did some vacation pages or school days pages at a time... since then I knew I'd need mostly certain colors, stickers, embellishments, etc..

Also, at all the ones I've been to.. usually the other attenders will let you use some of their equipment if you need to...

I'm proud of you. It sounds like fun... I don't know if you have a laptop or tablet or phone for PC but you could always go out in the hall and post on PC if you need to

Hello.. Home and feeding the kiddos. Somebody tell me to clean my living room this afternoon!!!

I can't believe I missed the Waltons bedtime call out (another favorite show) last night...

Also you guys were adventurous in high school... I know I said I was Brian with a side of the twisted ness of Allison and the sarcasm of Bender but my morals were all Claire... I was a good girl (mostly because no guy could scale the fortress that I built)..

Healed... have your kids help you clean the living room...
