Afternoon everyone! Beautiful day here in Alexandria...finally is beginning to be cool but not cold...have a great morning, afternoon or evening in your part of the world...

Hope you feel better soon AJ1...take care and have plenty of chicken soup

AJ1 I hope you feel better dear, we spread that around our home last week and it is still lingering. Awwwwww, wishing I was in Alex with Ayman. He is telling me that Egypt is getting cold right now. I said when you survive Ohio's weather in the winter dear you know what cold is
Have a great day, the weekend is almost here!

g'moaning all. is it friday yet?

Morning all.

Sorry you are not feeling well, aj. Sending chicken soup thoughts your way. It's rainy and gray and cold here...good day to stay in a warm, comfy bed with a book or the TV remote.

Rome was supposed to update their list today. They are supposed to do it the 1st and 15th of each month. Have they done it....NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear every time that I've seen that the list has been updated, I nearly am ready to throw up to see if there is a change. We were told that a decision would be rendered 90-180 days from the time of receipt. They received his file August 1st. So, we are now in the zone. After 4 years, I've become a pro at the wait game but I am about to lose my frick'in mind! We just want our lives back...we just want to be a family again. When is this crap going to end???????

Thanks for letting me rant peeps. It's a rough day today.

hello and happy thursday to all

This week has been rather pleasent. Of course Monday was a holiday for us so that has a lot to do with it. Wish they would cancel Mondays

you are becoming a bad influence jasman....i saw you posted in the thread and i read the topic as
Its Thursday 1 day before Friday thank golf!

One more week until Thanksgiving!

This week is really dragging on and I sure don't want to go to work today.

Have a good one.

Oyyyy, I think Im getting back into the morning sickness phase (insert barfing smiley here). Must've been all those golf and turkey sandwiches I got from Sarah

AJ1 feel better allousa I really hope the list has your name and you are reunited soon.

So happy 1 day till friday

Good morning everyone!

AJ1, take your medicine. And at night, just before going to bed boil water, put lemon in it and honey. After you drink that, don't drink anything else, just go to bed. it'll take care of the sore throat inshaAllah. Hope you feel better soon!

Hugs,

Ayesha

I am going to kill my boss. She literally sits at her desk sighing so the whole world can hear her and accuses people of doing things that they never did, then when you try to tell her she made a mistake she will not listen to anyone. It's driving me crazy today! I wish she would go smoke a cigarette.

Mine curses at me and calls me "dear" when he's not POed about something someone else did (which is always my fault.) I keep applying places but I'm "overqualified" which is really making me feel postal!!!

Oh that is bad. Mine always has to blame someone and I'm pretty sure she'd go as far as DNA testing to find out who made the mistake. She however, is perfect.

Awesome, Sarah. Yeah, it's really getting taxing. It would be better if he could at the very LEAST do his job, but he can't even do that either. He's also had several complaints filed against him with various reps that deal with us for his "abusive" nature. I've started giving them OUR coporate office number with his full name, etc

Wow, that's pretty bad. I hope something is done about him!

Don't get started on bosses.......

Any rate, the Senate restaurants are having Thanksgiving meal today lol so me and my co-worker are going to have a full turkey dinner for lunch whoo hoo! Also on another good note hubby talked with his mom and sisters yesterday and found out that they are building some new apartments in Marrakech. And they are going for pretty cheap for a 2 bedroom. So he's decided we're going to buy one!!! This way we'll pay on it until it's paid off, then rent it out until we're ready to move back to Morocco! Sort of exciting but scary too - I've never bought a house before! I'm getting excited thinking about how I will get to design it though since they build to your design. yay!

I'm so happy today and I can't tell you why ok I will...my inlaws are out of town for a few days yay privacy

hi

j

Happy Thursday All!

(I wish I had a day off work every once in a while )

Not doing too bad today. I am all excited for my first 3 day weekend in what seems like forever! I can't wait to sleeeeeeeeeeeeeppppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Good afternoon all; Off of work today and spending it with my honey ...... I leave for Egypt in 7 days and yes still counting. .......Only 4 more days left of work till I leave. .......My suit cases are over the weight limet. So I will be paying Xtra. Hope you all have a great day.

today sucks. unnecessary fights with my husband...........

Been in meetings all morning. But other than that, it's been an uneventful day. On a side note, I only have 4 more business working days until I go to England for 3 weeks. It's work related. I fly out the Monday after Thanksgiving and fly back on 12/15. I'll have 2 free weekends to do sightseeing. Too bad I can't do the 3 hour flight to Casa. But I don't have an extra $400 laying around. That would be a nice weekend getaway.

It sounds like there are some stinky bosses out there! My boss is awesome! I was in corporate accounting for 3 years and couldn't stand my boss there so I transferred back into payroll. I love this job!

This has been the longest week ever!!!!!

6 more hours at work then I have 2 days off hmmmmm should I stay home and clean or hit the road?

J

If the weather is nice, hit the road, if its crappy lounge around...that's what I would do...NO CLEANING!!!

3rd option: Come over and go out for Mexican w/me and some girlfriends. Then come home and help me pack

If I hadn't ran up my charge card on the last Texas trip, I would sooooooo be there for mexican with ya! I seriously don't know what I am gonna do with myself for 2 days.

J

Ill be home this weekend. We can have a virtual visit And Ill save you some chips and salsa

A virtual visit....sounds fun. I made THE best salsa last weekend with my home-grown tomatoes. It rocked.

Oh last night at the circus with Alexis was so much fun! She was amazed at everything going on around us. I forgot how much fun a circus is thru the eyes of a child.

J

I'll give you a call jackie. Omar is going to be busy sewing and this is my weekend to relax from the past two weekend marathong shopping stints, and prepare for the day after thanksgiving sale!!!

What's everybody else doing this weekend?

J

Tile, tile, and more tile. God help me to get this done.

Work, Work, and more Work I do remember why I took the second job, but I can still b*tch about it

leaves leaves and more leaves. the sky really is falling. i've got nude trees now

Just laundry, packing and cleaning for the trip. I hate coming home to a unorganized house after being away for so long.

diapers, burps, oh and maybe some laundry....

I will be trying to find out what that mysterious smell in the bathroom is and where it is coming from...lol And then on Sunday, after church, going to the moutains to look for apples.

And I thought it was only me who felt like this...I am so ready for it to be over....

Sara, doing that laundry is how you got to the diapers and burps.

My treees are getting naked too.

Jackie

Awww...for that little cutie you have there who could complain?

maybe I better stick to the diapers and burping for now


and Visa in Hand, thanks! We think she is pretty cute....

Sara - your daughter is precious - congratulations!!!!

Lola

Good evening! It's been an eventful day at work. We got payroll set up so we can finally start getting paid and we had a few meetings today. Things are really falling into place. We already have 25 patents scheduled and we open for official business on Dec 3. It's so exciting.

I want to say a big thanks and give out some hugs for all the sweet PM's I have been getting. After I was publically called a lier and then to find out I had PMs sent out about me, I seriously thought about leaving VJ, but I have way too many buddies here to let that happen. I will say I don't appreciate what was said and I'm not a lier. Seriously the bashing and degrading people on here needs to stop. Why do people get their jollies out of that?

Hope everyone had a great day!

Please don't think to leave VJ over a few bad apples. (i hope 'bad apples' is not name calling). I would miss you here and I know many others would too.

J

I agree with Jackie - stick around and just dismiss the backbiting comments - people seem to be so sensitive around certain topics and usually nothing good comes out of it.

You have been around for a long time and always been a great support for others - we need all the good people here to balance out the ones who create havoc...

Congratulations on the clinic and good luck!
