1) My boss's wedding was Sunday, and I am slowly recovering. Under 'other duties as assigned' she asked me if I would mind taking on the wedding planning and I said yes. That'll teach me!! The event was a smashing success, including on the professional networking level as I'm having a sit-down with a city council member soon to lobby for local support in taking our company non-profit, part of the real reason I was hired in this position.
2) I am finally back on an appropriate dose of thyroid, and I will be thanking all the little piggies out there at my next major acceptance speech. Low thyroid sucks donkey balls!
3) H and I continue to be warm, cuddly, appreciative, affectionate and all that good stuff. Yayyyyyyy!
4) We're also continuing to confront some thorny issues including the MIL thing, the validation thing, the 'guess what, Dia DID have valid reasons for leaving' thing, etc. Yuuuuuuuck! Necessary, but no fun.
5) I have a DB Coaching appt. Monday to call in some advice on some of the stuff in #4.
6) I got a substantial raise, with the promise of another one at my 6 month review.
7) I have no clue how I did it, but the accountant who was my arch nemesis who treated me like a two-bit temp who didn't have two brain cells to rub together has become a willing subordinate and my biggest supporter. I'm pretty sure this happened when I stepped in as a de facto art director in between our creative people and the accountant - who is also our graphic designer. Somehow, someway, I made the work flow actually work and now she worships me. Cool!
The trouble with having an open mind is that people put things in it.
