What a week…

Yes. I know it’s only Tuesday, but it’s been a bad week since last Monday. Even with all the snow and whatnot, it still sucks. I’m just really down/frustrated/not happy. I’m sick of work and school. I’m sick of having to work around schedules to make things work, I’m sick of other people being lazy and stupid. It’s all just a pain.

We got a LOT of snow this weekend. They actually shut down the highway on Sunday because of the weather and an accident. We are also getting a lot of snow tonight. We weren’t supposed to get any tonight, we were originally going to get 2-5″ last night, but nothing came. Instead we are supposed to get 2-4″ tonight. And it looks like we may hit that real quick. The roads are crap, there is a lot of snow on them already, on top of the ice that’s still there from the weekend…But, oh well, I like driving in it.

Work is…just yeah. I’m kinda glad that I’m going back to Customer Service. I won’t have to deal with so much office “drama” over there. I know what I’m doing, I know how to do it, and I have a little more freedom with what I do. I love my job now, but the drama, is just ridiculous. There was a meeting yesterday about what’s going on. Supposedly the CEO just said that we are only stopping acquisitions and we aren’t selling. I still don’t believe it. Too many things are changing for the opposite direction of what they say we are going to be doing. We are supposedly going to focus on our customer base we have now, yet we increase our fees, get rid of our customer communications’ staff…riiight, that’s trying to keep customers right? Anyways, I’ll just stop there.

School, just *sigh*. I’m getting so burned out with this quarter already. I’m not really sure why, I like the classes that I have, I just can’t stand it right now. We finally finished with Quickbooks in my Computerized Accounting class and are now working on Peachtree. I’d be working on that right now, but I left that book at home and instead brought my Quickbooks…Plus I drove tonight and carpooled so I can’t just leave either. It’s going to be a LONG night…

I got my wheel hub replaced on my truck Saturday. That went really well, a lot easier than I thought it would. I got it all replaced, and didn’t break anything. Well I didn’t think so. Until I got out of the garage and onto the road. My 4wd wouldn’t engage….so I had to drive home, on the ice, in 2wd. That sucked. But I made it, safely, and all in one piece. I decided to take a look Sunday in the garage since mom was working. I pulled the passenger side hub off to look at it, since that was the side that I replaced the wheel hub on, and it looked fine. So I messed around with it until I got it locked in, then I put it back in and tried the 4wd again. It STILL didn’t engage. When I was messing around, I heard a little clicking in the driver’s side. So I went back in the garage and took that side off, and messed around with it, got it locked in, and then put it back on. Well, I can pull it off without unlocking all the tabs so I think that is part of my problem. But I got it all back together and tried my 4wd and it all works now, so I think my hubs are shot. So I am going to look into getting some new ones and installing them, but for now I have 4wd again :)

Well, I think that’s it for now….TTFN

’til next time

Michael
