The new job is actually my other positive! I was offered two positions--one with the company that Traci and Brendon work for and one as a photo specialist. The first one I wasn't really excited about other than the fact that Bren and I would have the same schedule. It isn't a job I think I'd be very good at. The second, however, is right up my alley, but the likelihood of getting it was much smaller. They interviewed lots of people and only had one position available. I made it through their tough interview process and they called today to offer me the position. I was ecstatic! :cheer:

My last positive is that my friends and I are going to watch Caspian tonight! :)

Congratulations! Will you be taking pictures? You're so good at that.

judy 05-16-2008 03:23 PM

My positive for today is that I'm happy. I've been feeling this way for the past few days.

No, I won't be taking pictures, but I will be developing film and printing digitals. I'm excited to learn a new side to photography, some more technical skills. I think it'll make me a better photographer in the future. :)

Ok, I'm taking back the nice and warm outside sentence!!!! It's HOT and there's no wind!!!!

judy 05-17-2008 02:55 PM

Whoever invented weather didn't think it through.

Forgivenmom5 05-17-2008 02:59 PM

My positive is I went to a friends house for a graduation party for their son. I was reluctant to go but I really had a good time. I haven't really wanted to go anywhere but I guess I need to make myself get out more.

Janet 05-17-2008 05:10 PM

My positive is we went to a Chinese Buffet restaurant and I ate so much I'm miserable....boy was it good! ...LOLOL YUMMY!!!




Yes, I'm still doing WW's, I just needed a break.

Lindsey 05-17-2008 05:23 PM

My positive is that it's a beautiful day, and Kyle finally moved into his new house, and is having a backyard fire tonight with friends :) My parents are also coming into town tonight and I get to give my mom her late mother's day gift (a card, and two chicken soup books... one for mothers and daughters, and one for mothers and sons, from both my brother and I). Oh yeah and I finally put insurance on my Ninja today, but haven't been out riding yet. I'm really excited to start though! I washed all of last year's bugs off my white jacket this morning :D Oh yeah, AND it's a long weekend! Nothing to complain about there!
Well that was a lot of positives hehe

AngieDoogles 05-18-2008 06:13 PM

I met two new friends today (Michael and Leah). They are really awesome and enjoy a lot of the same activities that Brendon and I do. We went longboarding today and we're going to try to go kayaking next weekend. We're also going to go hiking at the camp that Bren and I used to work for. We found out tonight that Michael used to work for the same camp as well. He worked there the year after our last year, the same year that Bren and I go married there!

Also, I start work tomorrow. I'm super excited!

My positive is that if you look at Debbie's avatar, she has the "I Survived Breast Cancer" bow on it.

You did it Debbie, and I am so grateful and so inspired by you.

Thank you so much Judy. I start radiation in June but that is just precaution to prevent it from coming back. My positive is I went to a program called Look Good Feel Better. The kids have been trying to get me to go and I finally did and am glad. I got ton's of free makeup and lot's of tips. I had been a little depressed about looks and hadn't tried to fix up. I am going to the beach in a couple of weeks and this will help. Looks really mean nothing since I have been blessed with recovery but this does make me feel better.

HALEY 07-16-2008 10:29 AM

My positive for today, #1 to Thank God for another day of life!
and im finally after i believe almost 5 years since i got my house will have nice plants in front of it... going to start working on it tonight... so i'll be a digging holes, planting some japanses maple trees and some beautiful roses... oh i love roses.... :)

HALEY 07-18-2008 08:36 AM

my positive for today, is that i'm almost done with my planting just waiting for my wheeping willow to come in... going to relax tonight and order a pizza.. no cooking tonight... i'm going to be lazy......and play with Micah :D

Forgivenmom5 07-19-2008 04:51 AM

It is Saturday--No work or radiation for two days!

Tink 07-19-2008 07:30 AM

Yesterday we got nearly all of Katie and Joshes stuff moved to their new place!
My mom, my oldest granddaughter, Greg, Joel, and I all helped.

This morning they're busy setting up the nursery, which they said they prefer to do by themselves, so we have some unexpected free time. None of us had imagined it would go this quick, so that was a pleasant surprise!

teri88 07-19-2008 08:35 AM

My positive...my hubby is home today! He leaves the house at 5:30 (when I am sleeping) and gets home at 10 at night (when I am sleeping) so I don't see him all week. Once in a while I'm still up or he gets home an hour early...but I usually only see him on the weekends! Areally positive thing would be to win the lottery so he doesn't have to work so many hours!:D

AngieDoogles 07-19-2008 01:46 PM

My positive today is that Brendon met my new boss and they really seemed to like each other. This job is going to be TONS of fun!

Shada 07-19-2008 03:03 PM

My positive for the day was so unexpected!
I was cleaning out my 'clutter room' to finally get it ready to make into a exercise room... found many things of course ----- the best thing I found was a check for $400.00 I had forgot about!! AND some cash in a birthday envelope from 3 years ago! The check was from last October. How in the heck did I forget about that??

I posted in another thread about my well. The appox. bill for that when completed is $400.00. I feel like I got a gift to pay for my well, with some more thrown in for good behavior!!

Plus by this time tomorrow my room will be all set up and cleaned of clutter!!

Been a good day.

Tink 07-19-2008 07:07 PM

Shada, I hope the check is still negotiable! Often after 90 days they aren't, so you might want to check it before you count on it.

Fingers crossed for you that it's still good!

Shada 07-19-2008 07:24 PM

Not to worry Tink, it is from my employer, so I will find out Monday if it can still be cashed, or they will have to write me a new one.

I still can't believe I forgot I had it!

judy 07-20-2008 11:16 AM

My positive for today is that I saw my friend Gail yesterday. We went to her pool club and had such a nice day.

I have a few very good friends I want to say goodbye to before I move. I saw Carol for dinner last week, Sandra is away on vacation, and I'll see Roseann this week, even if it's only for a little while. Carol wants me to bring her over so we can all be together.

I'm very lucky that I have such good friends.

I hope to have time to see our NJ 4WTers also!

I'll email my friend/acquaintances.

HALEY 07-25-2008 09:09 AM

My positive for today is that it is Friday, YA TGIF.... and i have the whole weekend to play with my boy !!!! and it's pizza day, so i don't have to cook tonight

Janet 07-25-2008 11:28 AM

My positive is that Ricky's physical and eye test was perfect. No problems whatsoever!! Also, with my eye test, no change in prescription, I just wanted new frames...so we've had a wonderful day with great news.

AngieDoogles 07-25-2008 11:28 AM

My positive is that today is Mom's LAST radiation treatment. Can you believe she's done with chemo, surgery, and radiation! What a fighter!

Tink 07-25-2008 11:46 AM

My positive today is that Shannon came out to share with me the results of her HSED... she PASSED and got accepted into nursing school! She's so thrilled and proud of herself.
When she came here she was a 17 yr old homeless drop out, so I'm very proud of her. She now works full time besides having finished her HS education.

teri88 07-25-2008 11:59 AM

Tink, that is wonderful! My positive is that Kenny was off today and got to spend the day with him!!!

DianaB 08-02-2008 10:09 AM

My positive for today is that I found several things at garage sales. I pick up Christian books to read and found a whole lot in good shape. I also made a new friend and maybe we'll go antiqueing together sometime. I'm so excited.

Tink 08-02-2008 10:59 AM

My positive for today is that Greg's still working on the laundry/bathroom re-do in hope that he won't have to leave me tomorrow unable to use either of them. lol

Janet 08-02-2008 05:24 PM

I had a very productive day and got the family room painted.

HALEY 08-04-2008 08:49 AM

my positive for today is i have one debt monkey off my back,,, 4 more to go!!!!
Thank God!!!

Marilyn 08-04-2008 09:28 AM

My positive is that Karen got here safely yesterday for a 2 week visit, and Melissa called this morning and she and her new hubby are coming to visit on the 16th!!!! Yaaaaaaaa!!!! That was my spa day, but I'd much rather see our kids!!! I'm soaking it all in!!!

miki47 08-15-2008 11:09 AM

I've some to this thread a little late:) but my positives would have to be:
All 4 of our daughters and all 5 of our grandbabies all came together at the same time in one place for the first time!! I loved it:)

Janet 08-15-2008 03:48 PM

My positive is I heard from a sweet friend today.

Tink 08-16-2008 10:54 AM

My positive today is that Greg's found a car he's SO excited about getting at a very reasonable price, so he and Joel went to see it together. Cars are a passion they really share, and between them there's very little they don't know about the old ones. So while I'm not excited about the prospect of having another "Project" in the yard, I'm happy to see the both of them doing something together that they're so enthusiastic about.

Janet 08-16-2008 12:46 PM

My positive is I feel better than I have for a few days.

Tink 08-16-2008 02:20 PM

I just spoke with Greg by phone and he's as happy as a kid at Christmas. lol
He bought the car of his dreams.

He bought a 76 Cougar right out of the showroom in 76 and still has it. It has less than 80,000 miles on it and has always been his baby. It's a deep brown with gold metal flake and is absolutely decked out. It's sadly in need of a major re-do though, and finding parts for it is daunting at least.

The car he bought is identical to it other than color. Now he's debating with himself which one to canibalize to make the other perfect. lol It's fun to hear the excitement in his voice... we really couldn't afford a "toy" right now, but he works 66 hrs a week and almost never asks for anything for himself, so I am glad he's able to get it. So the replacing of the living room flooring will have to wait a bit longer... I'll just appreciate it even more once we DO get it. lol

miki47 08-16-2008 03:31 PM

:D I have the greatest hubby!! He brought my Anniversary gift home today...his name is Charlie! He is a 10 week old Yorkie!!! I love it:):)

Tink 08-16-2008 03:34 PM

Miki, that's the perfect gift!
How wonderful for you!

Janet 08-16-2008 05:55 PM

What a great gift!!! Now you know we're going to need pictures...right?
