'Tis the Season

I cannot believe that it's only 19 days till Christmas. Stop the Polar Express already, I need more time. First of all, Hanukkah starts on the 21st so I'm really pressed to get this done. Time is my enemy all the time. Between scouts, work, scouts, work, oh and did I mention work. As if I didn't have enough on my plate, I started working as a 31 consultant in July. Yes, a second job. Isn't that great!! 25 years working for the same company and I have to get a part time job cause the skyrocketing prices combined with my shrinking paycheck (not only haven't I had a raise for about five years) but they are taking more for taxes, insurance and pension (almost $100.00 a week more) Add to that the 200.00 a month gasoline costs and I'm in the whole a paycheck every month. So, I decided to give 31 a try, my friend Lisa was going gangbusters and really doing great and making money so I thought Okay, I'll try it -- and guess what?? It's great!! I'm making the extra paycheck everymonth so far (thank you God) and I promoted to Senior consultant already -- and I'm hoping to be a Director by March. I'm really excited about the prospect and the new found success. Who knew? Can't wait till I get to the place where I can retire. I'm thinking by September maybe. -- CROSSING FINGERS AND SAYING PRAYERS!!! Wouldn't that be the best thing ever!!

For now, though I'm busy and tired and trying to get the house decorated, the scouts through to the holiday, and I have Service unit stuff to do and Cookie Sales start soon. It's madness. I need a clone. LOL. Or elves maybe.

Any volunteers? Pointy ears optional. LOL.
