Brat's Hideout!

Hearing a knock on my door before 10am on a Saturday is unusual. One of my guy friends came by with a few pounds of venison, a pie, and a bottle of wine! I won't be hosting my Superbowl party (aka the Chili cookoff) this year, instead relaxing after my operation. It was the nicest gesture, feeling very lucky to have such good friends! I'll still be making chilli tomorrow, for sure!

Nothing says get well soon like meat, pie and booze!!

Operation? Well, sounds like all is well, so that's good to know. Enjoy your weekend SB and your relaxation time. 💗🌹
 
I hope that you're recovering well from your operation and that your weekend is proving to be relaxing :rose::kiss:.

Some ladies want flowers, then there is me. 😂

Thank you Susurration!! It's been over 24hrs so I can crack that wine now! :p I do appreciate the empathy, I'll be back to 100% in a week. Just no exercising or cycling for two weeks and no lifting over 35lbs, I kept forgetting today. But I plan on doing nothing but cooking and homework today and taking it easy!


I received an interesting phone call tonight. My old boss asking me back. I feel very conflicted. On one hand I love the company and miss it dearly. On the other, I have started moving on and rebuilding myself. I definitely don't want to get my hopes up, but surely if he is calling at 8pm on a Saturday, he must need people. I am just wondering how I can negotiate the best offer without selling myself short or appearing desperate, while not promising anything at the same time. Ugh. I really need to ponder this over a glass of wine. :D

Know what you want, and what conditions (money and otherwise) must be met for you to say yes. If they're met, they're met. If not, they're not. You'll look like a badass businesswomen.
 
Make sure you take it easy :rose:.

That is a tricky decision. So long as you can go back while still moving forward, maybe it could work? That's not necessarily straightforward to achieve though.
 
Update about my meeting today, I'm nervously chewing on my nails waiting to hear back. Okay, exaggerated... Yet I am anxiously waiting near the phone. I know previously when I was doing the hiring, if they didn't meet company standards (regarding the background check and credit score) the system had no way to continue the hiring process. I was able to negotiate an amazing deal. I had all my demands met and then some. "That's it? Done." Almost too easy... Which is why I am nervous!
 
Positive vibes sent your way, Brat!!! :rose::kiss:

Yay! Positive vibes always help!!
I got the job. Boss put me on the schedule for next week so I can continue recovering and take it easy. Also he is sending me some swag! I am truely blessed! So grateful I have the opportunity to be back doing what I love and in the atmosphere I thrive most in!
I honestly didn't need the rest of the week. Today is day 4 and I'm feeling great. I only have 6 more days of restrictions such as no cycling or lifting over 25lbs. It's going to be a long week! I was thinking about getting out the yoga mat, but they said no core exercises. Maybe some Tai Chi? I gotta do something!!

Congrats Brat!! I am mentally sending you a congratulatory bottle of wine and giant sausage to celebrate. (Venison sausage you perv!)

Keep recovering. I know you are restless, but your body needs time to heal. Sometimes its better to listen to the doctors instead of being a rebel. :p

Congratulations. Doing what you love is Paramount. Everything else is a bonus.

Nom nom nom!
I appreciate the concern. Hubby feels the same way, he came home a little early today and insisted I go lay down and try to nap. That's what I'm doing... "Napping on Lit" :D
Trying my best to be good, I swear!

Absolutely! I'm at that age where the money is nice, but at the end of the day asking myself "Am I Happy?" is more important.
I'm making a habit of sneaking into hideouts today :cool:
Good thing I have the place laced with booby traps!:devil: Just call out when you need to be released!
Don't slip on the ice Brat
Today is super wet and icy, but I almost always wear slip proof shoes. If you knew me irl, you'd understand, I am super clumsy! I should of posted my bruises from a few weeks back. My whole leg and nana were bruised up. I don't even know exactly what happened to make me wipe out that hard. I'm blaming tree roots not my coordination!:eek:
 
Slip Fall

Sorry bout your legs and nana.. Pics are always welcomed.. Even of bruises
Get well:rose:
