A few random thoughts ....

Today around 10 I am headed out to the new house to see what the foundation company (that did the work previously) reports about the property.  I am very excited about this house, while the layout is not what my idea of ideal is, the owners really are.  They consistently surprise me by doing the right thing.  They are truly great people.

When I get back from that, I need to finish out the last hour of my Texas xray lecture and take the test already.  The lecture is just long and boring with a lot of scientific information about the xrays that I need to write down to have all that straight for what angles and what type of xrays and what not.  Its really confusing to me because I have only used traditional style xrays 2 different times.  The lecture vs taking xrays is vastly different.  Its a lot easier knowing what tooth you are trying to capture and the angle you  need to point the BID at than what they make it to be in the lecture.  All I can say is that in Louisiana it was much more easy to attain the ability to take xrays!!

I do struggle sometimes with depression, and I think genuinely everyone does from time to time.  I think my best way of coping with it for the last few years, was by being so busy I didn't have time to think about being depressed.  While my brain has always been overworked, now that I am unemployed, that when I do talk to someone, I am constantly judging what I said, what I did, did I handle it correctly?  I mean don't get me wrong, I do this ALL the time, even about the blogs I write .... its just who I am.  But its usually just a few times I think about it.  I have been thinking about the last phone conversation with my old boss over and over again, then judging did I handle it correctly ... is he distancing me because I offended him? More than likely, I am just making all of this up.

I have to say that I am super impressed with Hailey and Cherie, Hailey has really stepped up and starting to get more organized as an assistant.  Which I always thought she had it in her, its just bringing it out of someone is the hard part.  I think she works well under pressure.  I also am very proud of the progress that Laurie has made.  A person that was scared to death of what she was doing at the office is now feeling more like she belongs there and is getting more and more comfortable.

Giving the key back to the office was bittersweet and I have come to my terms of not having the key.  I don't live there, the chances of me returning - slim to none.  He said he would have me come back for large cases, but the way he has not been responding to me and trying to cut me out of the loop .... I really don't see that happening.  So I am okay with separating my ties.  I am going to continue the ordering for maybe 1 or 2 more months then I'll turn it over to Hailey.  I want her to get better organized in their daily task before I throw something else at her. Overall from the office, I am getting the feeling that when I asked to be paid for the work that I done during the day of my move (while my house was being packed) I think offended him and that's where this all comes from.  I'm in the crossroads of just sending him an email to forget about the money and just take the loss and feel like I am the bigger person and take that for payment.
