I knew if I could get some sleep I’d start feeling better.  I was laying on the couch last night (to help the heartburn feeling) and realized I just wanted to be in my own bed.

I went to bed and stacked up my pillows.  I fell asleep almost immediately, had not episodes of heartburn or indigestion during the night.  I slept through my first two alarms and then snoozed the third one until about 5:15.  Needless to say, I’m running a little late this morning and I don’t mind.  Cause I feel better!!!

Hopefully this feeling lasts and I will continue feeling this way throughout the day.  The last two days were hell on my physically, which in turn started to fuck with my emotions.  Amazing how that happens, right?

I think my post last night helped me kind of “let go” of my problems.   In GA I’ve always struggled with that “Let Go and Let God” concept.  While it’s looks good on paper and even when I say it, it’s much more difficult to do.  However, I must have done it last night because my mind shut off and I rested.

While I would love to keep sleeping, just because I’m feeling like I could, I’m much more rested than I was yesterday.  I believe that “rested” feeling will help propel me through the day at work without being like I was yesterday.  I just need to watch what I eat and make sure I don’t invite that heartburn back in, ya know?

I submitted my first Avon order last night!  This did not include the 8 orders I had from all mah friends who have gone to the website and ordered something.  I read up on the website and it turns out the Halloween (Campaign 19) stuff will appear on my website September 3rd.  WHEEEEE

Tonight when I get home from work, I am going to be eating quickly and then heading back out to a union meeting.  I don’t get a choice in being a part of the union or not, it’s mandatory.  I’m not pleased.  The dues are almost $25 a pay check.  This is almost $50 a month that is going to something I don’t know about.  I’m going to this meeting with a list of questions.  If the president or union rep can not answer my questions before the meeting, I’ll be bringing them up DURING the meeting.

I want to know exactly where my money is going and what it’s paying for.  Unions have not done much for me in the past.  I was part of the union in Vegas for civilian employees and out of the 13 years I was a member, I used their services once.  I want to know what this new union has to offer me.

It better be gold toned or made of gold for me to be happy about losing $50 worth of bill and/or grocery money a month.  500+ people pay these dues a month.  Where is all that money going?  What’s it used for?  Besides the pretty union office, that is.   Where does the extra/left over funding go at the end of the month?  What exactly are they going to provide me?

I need to get ready for work now.  TTFN

Until next time…

    i am all about worker’s rights, however most unions i have encountered recently do nothing but keep slackers employed. trying to fire a bad employee was practically impossible. and this is from me, a lowly worker bee. i’m not angry management, i am someone who had to pick up slack time and again because bad employees couldn’t be let go or the union would get them their job back.

    my aunt is a union shop steward and would KILL me if she knew i wrote this, but i have told it to her face. then again, she has a cushie job because of the hoops the union forces her employer to jump through.

    i love that you will hold them accountable for what they do with your money. go get them!

    and i do hope htey turn out to be fantastic for you. :)

    hello haha narf Yeah I don’t quite know what this whole union thing will do for me besides provide some great fucking eye candy at the meetings. LOL

    I just got home from the meeting and I didn’t get much out of it besides being embarrassed by being called to come forward in front of a bunch of guys I don’t know and being sworn in.

    It was interesting how they went over everything. I may get involved more with it, or I may not. I’m going to see how it goes and since I can’t do anything about the dues, I might as well cowgirl up and get involved.
