I hate the noisy machines in the hallway.

It's the first thing that came to my mind when I went to start typing.  The noisy fucking machines.  Okay, so, it's easier to wash a big, long hallway with a machine, but seriously...  The noise is so distracting.  And I can't hear my music!  I'm not sure what I'd rather, though.  Hearing the machine, or hearing the annoying lady's screechy voice from down the hall.  They are both irritating.

I have been feeling really, really good today.  Happy.  Happy isn't a word I use to describe my emotions very often.  Maybe it's the thought of family time tonight. Maybe that it's actually starting to feel like Christmas!  In all reality, I only have six more days left of work until Christmas.  And two of those are half days!  And two of them consist of Christmas Partying :)  Maybe it's because I'm GOING HOME this weekend!  Yes, I'm very, very excited to go home!  I'm excited to see Grandma, Mom, and Aunty Val, and everyone else too, of course.  It's unfortunate that Uncle Dan and Uncle Denny won't make it, but things happen. 

I woke up and did my hair this morning.  And put on make-up!  Maybe that's another reason why I'm feeling good!  I never, ever do my hair and make-up!  It's usually either-or for me.  Most of the time it's neither.  But this morning, I did BOTH! 

I'm still very upset about Christmas.  VERY.  It's really upsetting that Chris doesn't even seem to acknowledge how much it's bothering me.  He's just happy to have HIS Christmas HIS way.  And that's that.  He doesn't see the world outside of HIS happiness.  If he's happy, he assumes everyone else is. 

Anyway, I am not going to take my unusual happiness and waste it on talking about useless things that are never going to change.  I need to think positive!  Think positive, happy thoughts! 

On another note, they have started construction on my new office at work!  They have ripped out the doors and marked the holes with BIG HUGE RED X'S!  They have torn out part of the wall between mine and the programs co-ordinator's offices!  So it looks so big now!  She and I were worried it was going to look cramped.  But it doesn't!  It looks big, bright, and spacious! 

We've I've been pretty swamped at work.  I've been alone for pretty much the last two weeks.  First, her kid was sick.  For four days.  Which I understand, not that it's any less frustrating.  Now she's sick.  AND I was sick last week for a day.  Needless to say, we are running out of time to get all this stuff done that we need to get done.  There's a lot to do, and very, very little time to do it.  We have letters that need to be sent out.  Between 500-600 letters.  Before the end of December.  They aren't even ready to go out yet.  We have to do a few touch ups on the database.  That hasn't been touched.  We need to order office supplies.  We need to decide what kind of modulars we want for our offices!  We have tooooo much to do, and only 6 days to do it.  Because she's on holidays after Christmas. 

Anyway, positive, happy thoughts...  Positivity...  Happiness... 

I've got to go before I keep thinking of negative things to write about.
