Regular work day. I still feel kind of icky - chest congestion type thing. Not coughing as much today.

Regular school day for kids. Ian had a pizza party with his science teacher for lunch - she invited all the kids in her classes who participated in the science fair. Kayleigh had a regular school day. I'm ticked with her because rather that seeing her trig teacher for extra help after school, she went to a mentor meeting.

Tonight, Ian has scouts. I'll be home paying bills, watching tv and hopefully getting a decent night's sleep. NOt much else going on.

When you go to the evaluation meeting ask for specific examples in the areas that are being criticzed. A lot of times on those evaluations supervisors will speak in generalizations, making them get specific will sometimes shut them down.

Thanks Chelle, I am really hoping that's what it ends up being, I am hoping they start scheduling interviews for the other position soon and that I wasn't passed up for an interview opportunity. My self esteem has been quite low lately unfortunately and I am doubting myself about things now.

Hugs to your friend, and to you for being such a good friend and listening to her. Might I suggest, because I have a bit of experience with this, if neither of you have heard of it, the book Co-dependants, its a fantastic book for this situation and for you to just give her encouraging words to do what she can to seek out way to slowing become financially independant for herself, even if just to give her more control in her life within the marriage so that if and/or when she made a choice to leave, she'd be on better financial ground.

Or full of himself and ideals of a paralegal. He sounds like a jerk to be honest. Tracy this may one way you are being prepared fora job change, you know? Things are happening for a reason, it's not fun while you go through it and I'm sorry you have to go through this. But I think things bigger and better are waiting for you around a corner before too long. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. All positives for you.

I'm sorry you're still having problems with your boss. He doesn't seem to see that the way you do your job is working and that you are proficient and capable. He just ses that you don't do things is way. It sounds like he came into his job rather closed minded.
