April Fools Day!

2007-04-15T00:39:00.000-04:00

Back in town from visiting my parents and my beautiful Aunt Terry and am sorry to have left that Sunshine State as it has been 30 degrees on average here since my return. I am looking foward to the 07 work year and am not sorry about the Hazmat site that I had to leave after two months. My eyes could not handle working at night any longer. Second or third shifts are not for me. April 1st is my husbands birthday and we went to Keiltys in Waterford and had a great time. Call me crazy but the years are going faster aren't they?

End of 2006 Already

2006-12-10T12:53:00.000-05:00

Seems like the year just started and it's almost over. I had a not so great year, allot of traveling not as much income.I was always on the list at the wrong time and not when the big jobs were let.I subbed for a few operators this year so I got on a few jobs for a short while. Hopefully the New Year will bring a new start and a great job forecast. Let's hope so, so till the next time Safe trip!

Was Laid off for Higher cause

2005-03-04T23:38:00.000-05:00

Found out yesterday after 5 grueling days with my husband experiencing terrible stomach pain that his gall bladder needs to go so it was operated on today and everything is great. Thank Goodness. You never really know how much you love someone until they are needing to have surgery and you can't imagine them not getting through it. Love him still after 21 years with all my heart..Even if he can sometimes be a Neanderthal. Love him... Glad I got laid off so I was able to be his caregiver. The Lord does things in marvelous ways...

No More Lulls!

2005-02-26T10:15:00.000-05:00

First Saturday I could sleep in but upset as I lost my job yesterday but not really cause I hate Lulls and love cranes and want to get back on one! I will surely miss the guys but know that I wil work with them again. I hope everyone has a great and safe work year and send me photos as the job progresses
