Someone asked for a church story, here's one...

Overheard after the PAC meeting tonight... We were having coffee and wine after the meeting, Older dude and former politician decide to leave. We all say goodbye... The get back 30 seconds later telling us the door's locked. I take TFB's keys and offer to unlock it. I get to the door:


Older Dude: Aren't you scared to be alone with us?

Me: Nah, why would I be???

OD: I told former Politician I would push you on the wall (then he tries to push me gently, jokingly done, cornering me)

ME: I'm warning you, having your ass kicked by someone who wears steel toe shoes will be painful...

Former Politician cracks up and laughs his ass off lol Older Dude wasn't laughing...lol

Honest to God dude, don't piss off a woman on her period. wink It's dangerous!!!!

Got an award...

13 things about my new job!!!





1. I work Monday through Friday, 8h00- 17h00.

2. I needed safety apparel, glasses, shoes or boots with steel toe. I was able to pick up the shoes Tuesday because my boss let me leave early to get them at the speciality store.

3. We are 3 gals in our specific department but are a member of a bigger one. 3 girls in 1 big office.

4. Many of the guys working in the executives team are cute... altho, not all of them singles...

5. I'm part of the executive team at Big Multinational Company, and I'm totally being that, there. mrgreen

6. They told me I was impressive today (because I'm smart I understand fast )

7. I'm going to be on training for about 2 and a half, 3 weeks.

8. I like my boss, he's someone you feel you can trust right away.

9. The girl doing my training is knowledgeable and we get along well.

10. I received a shirt of Big Multinational Company and a lunch box on Monday.

11. I saw the company's doctor today and it went well.

12. I love the job, I love how it feels, the relationship between the other executives are great, they are good to each others and I already feel part of them.

13. I'm going to visit the whole building tomorrow, the whole installation with my security apparel, with my boss and trainer.



Can you tell how happy I am???

I would have stories to tell

But I don't want to do it because I don't want to reveal anything related to the industry I'm working for. For confidential reasons... But my day was very very good, I love the person training me, she's great and I wanna go in the morning because I feel happy there...

So instead I'll tell you a parish story from tonight.

We were all taking down the exhibit this evening... The Friendly Boss, Sweet Wife, Administrative Friend (husband of Cute Friend), The Tall Friend and his wife ( my adorable friend) and 3 other members of the church council.

I totally dropped a statue of an angel and broke it's wings and neck. rolleyes It didn't have an historical value but for fuck's sake, I wasn't happy at all. Someone will fix it but i wish it didn't happen...anyway...


Overheard at The Church while going downstairs...TFB and I were carrying a heavy table...

Me: Be careful, it's heavy, we should check each other's hole...(referring to the hole on each side of us, the table holes not our assholes)

TFB: lol hysterically laughs his ass off and the guys around are just laughing at me...lol

You can bet your ass that they told me the rest of the evening, "I'm checking your hole eh! lol" " Are you checking mine?" lol "Girl, ya can't see my hole!!!"

I was just rolling my eyes at them and laughing.... These guys and girl are he bestest!!! I love each of them with my whole heart, they are all adorable and sweetheart and generous, kind, I love them. smile


SW, if you knew her, you just just love her too... She's a real mommy, a beautiful woman, with a BIG heart, a beautiful soul. I mean that she is a friend and a mommy to me and I love that...smile She takes care of those around her, she cares, loves, protect, she is caring.

So we, as a team finished everything and it was fast. mrgreen Thanks guys, I love love you!!!!!

First day of work

Well, the day was great, long but great. I say long because of the many new things, because of meeting many new people seeing everything but great because of the challenge because the job is interesting. I work Monday-Friday from 8h00 to 17h00 with an hour lunch break.

I love Big Multinational Company's organisation, I loved visiting the place, will have to do the official tour tomorrow I think. (it was a matter of wearing appropriate safety apparel and my boss's availability and also the fact that you can't do everything the first day)

The job's going to be a real challenge, interesting. I've got lots to learn but I'm smart so it'll be alright. The industry BMC is a part of, is unknown to me but I've learned already a lot in a day. In couple of months, it won't have secrets for me.

My close co-workers are nice, sweet and funny. I'm exhausted, I mean drained but the first day can be that way eh? Tomorrow, another day, I'll be meeting the company's doctor for a routine checkup. smile

I don't know what to say other than it went well, I'm very happy and I'm happy to be working there. But I'm soo going to be sleeping soon. lol

sunday tale and story

Well awesome day at The Church, many many visitors. We close around 16h15, packed up everything because season is over and took everything to the office. We then went to see the cruise ship from the pier and the park, walked a bit. Sweet Wife (SW) invited me for dinner ( it was very very yummy), we then watched TV all evening, chatted, relaxed, laughed. I left around 22h30.

The Friendly Boss (TFB) and I were "Crazy Guy" and "Crazy Gal" today. We laughed our ass off, all fucking day. The man's funny, I'm telling you. I must have said a million time to him today.

(Looking at TFB's bruise on the forehead)

What happened to your forehead? lol

Whatever, I bumped in the freezer's door...lol

The what?

freezer's door!!!

(Pointing at his bruise) The what?

(rolls his eyes at me and laughs)


Anyway, it was a great day, "Crazy Guy and Crazy Gal".... SW laughed at us and thought we were cute but silly. mrgreen Anyway, the day was beautiful, we had a great time and the evening was just perfect.

Tomorrow: first day at Big Multinational Company!!!! smile I'll update in the evening!!!! mrgreen

What's up with that?

There's nothing on TV, there was nothing on TV last night, what's up with that? I was totally pissed off last night because there was nothing.on.television.

I'm reading Hannibal rising from Thomas Harris. Not too bad but fucked up. lol er, I know it's the story of a serial killer and a crazy bastard, what did I expect? confused Just not this. My crazy neighbour's music is driving me insane. I need to refrain from blogging about her because if she found out, she would beat the crap out of me I'm sure. lol The girl's insane...

Hmm, I remember one thing on TV last night, very late, after midnight. I watched Oprah, it was about mistress and married man that cheat on their wives. That was good, I mean compare to the rest of the evening. mrgreen Anyone else bored? I should have rented a movie, I should have had.

Anyway, can't wait to see my pals tomorrow. smile

Uggh!!! cooking and cleaning...

Have I ever told y'all how much I hate cooking? lol Well I'm a good cook but it's freaking long. I've been cooking ALL afternoon, to pack healthy and yummy lunch for the week.

I came back home around 3h40 AM, yeah friends came late. mrgreen Slept until, hmm 10h30 when the phone rang and TYP offered to go grocery shopping with me. I hurried up to get myself ready and off we went. I bought a lot of whole food and I made homemade chicken soup, tuna casserole, roasted chicken, 2 type fo stir fry and rice. This is all going to be yummy. The soup's seems very very good. Dinner will be great but I still hate to cook. My future husband better be a good cook because I ain't going to be cooking all the time. wink Yeah I know, I should find him and we'll talk after huh?lol And because I'm so freaking anal about keeping everything organised, I'm doing the dishes right away. I hate to have to clean a big mess. confused

So yeah, I'm cooking, doing laundry, cleaning, getting ready for my new job!!!! mrgreen

Tomorrow, TFB and I will be at The Church for the last day of cruise ships (this season). I'm sure SW will join us smile It's going to be a long day but with good people, time flies. mrgreen

So my lovelies, I'll check back later. I'll be visiting my friend's blog later today... smile

Enjoying life...

Yeah, that's what I'm doing and also trying to finish everything before Monday because i won't have much free time. I finished installing the windows insulation kit this morning. All windows are done.

No one replied to my request for a boyfriend, so the hell with all of it, I did it myself and even took the garbage out. TFB and I did laugh wed night when he said that if someone replied and said they were interested , they'd be pathetic and kinda creepy. Like a man who posted an add for "a girlfriend to cook him dinner and do the laundry, nothing else, no sex, nothing" would get one... We giggle thinking about this. lol

I went to get books at the public library this afternoon and I'm watching my friend's kids tonight. mrgreen I love the monkeys...smile So I'm going to play auntie tonight, the monkeys warm my heart, they are adorable, both of them. :::heart:::

Tomorrow? Grocery shopping and cooking, dis is crazy. Big Multinational Company has a place for the employee to eat, microwave but no cafeteria or machines, so it's bring your own lunch and it's not close to anything, you can't just run to the store so I'll cook lunch and freeze the for each lunch and buy yogurts, apple sauce snack. Anyway, tomorrow is food shopping and food preparation and Sunday is the last cruise ship in town. TFB, SW and I will be there ALL day.

I'm doing good, still very very happy about everything, I can't wait for Monday!!! mrgreen mrgreen mrgreen

What are your plans for the weekend? cool

13 things I bought in the last week...






It's another week that I have to do my TT on a hurry. Time flies for sure. I'll do it on things I have bought in the past week. I sure did spend a lot of money, it's insane but with the new job, getting everything ready, I had to. But whatever, sorry for such consumerism, I'm usually not much of a spender (well not that bad).

1. A MacBook, I bought the 13 inches 2.0GHz. I got it this afternoon, I researched it yesterday, called this morning but I had doubts, but this morning I told The Friendly Boss (TFB) about my project and it confirmed me in what I wanted, what I needed. I kinda needed some type of paternal approval.mrgreen I got the 3 year warranty, so with the apple 1 year it gives me 4 years of warranty.

2. Clothes... For the new job that starts on Monday.

3. A window Insulation kit. Similar to this one, for my patio door and a kit for the other windows. This thing has cut my electric bill for the past 2 winter.

4. Candles... I love to have scented candles...

5. Cat food... Mr.Cat has to eat ya know!

6. Greeting cards for my friend's kids and a "Thank You" card.

7. I got sexy panties again yesterday... It's claudia's fault!!! wink

8. Motrin IB

9. Grocery food; Because ya know, a girl has to eat eh?....

10. A scarf and mittens ... they are soo freaking soft to touch.mrgreen

11. Clinique Makeup

12. Herbal tea

13. A movie theater ticket. I went to see "Michael Clayton" last Friday with a friend. George Clooney was so freaking hot!!!.



I feel a bit ashamed after seeing my list. redface I will refrain from spending money in the next week, I have everything I need. Have you had to buy a lot of things/clothes when you got a new job? Anyone have wisdom to share about any of the things on my list?
