Week really not getting any better......

Oh man! I cannot wait for the weekend! It's just been one thing after another this week!....On Monday we got hit with 2 different sets of Audits...one is our internal Audit department that basically comes in checks out any and all details and tells us were we are screwing up majorly...or minorly if that's the case...Secondly because of Enron and it's wonderful accounting practices we also have Ernst and Young here to do another audit of our controls of the accounting for the hospital...You see...after the Enron snafu, corporations around the states had to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley Act of Accountabilty (Also called the "Sox's Law) so we have an outside company (Ernst and Young) that has to come in and basically see that we are accounting what we should be....it's quite complicated when you think about it...Just have to make sure our checks and balances are in place considering we also have Medicare to account too as well...UGH! So between the two different sets of auditors my department is going slightly bananas...PLUS we have hospital wide inventory going on (that's fun...counting syringes...bedpans...test tubes...)

Now if that doesn't make one nuts then having your ignition quit on you will...I was making my merry way with the boys to drop them off at school...stopped for Gas...went to turn the car off...the key wouldn't go all the way back....Hmm???...didn't worry too much about it until after I put the gas in...I got back in the car and started it...it started and died....tried again...died again...I did this about 4 more times and finally decided to call Mike....As luck would have it...tried one more time after I got off with him and it started and stayed started...Called Mike back and went on to take the boys to School and me to work....Mike came over and looked at it (Oh the benefits of us working at the same place!!!!!) Yup it's the ignition switch....Key will not turn all the way so I could take it out....yeah....I'm so happy....I can still drive the car and Mike's looking into the parts needed to fix it...Now Mike can fix just about anything engine wise and underneath but he's never done a steering column before...so if it gets tricky...then we'll take it in...I hope it's something he can fix! Cause something tells me the this would be an expensive thing if we have to take it into the shop....

This week really needs to get better AND SOON!!!!!!

On a better note though...the one bright shinning moment was when I went to the Doctor's office and found out that I have managed to loose 11 pounds and my blood pressure is back to normal....YIPPEEEE!! The diet and exercise is working apparently....I am so happy.....

On last note to KCFla.....You link is posted and I must say that is one cool picture you have on your blog! I love it!!!!!!


Take care all!

Found out it's some $60 gizmo that Mike is currently at Congress Auto Parts getting....Car will be normal again in no time! WHEW!!!!!

Awe Diz....Wish I could take back those pounds from you.....I'll try to slow it down a pace! But I walked my butt off checking the departments for inventory (legs are about to give out!) So I think I probably walked off another 5 pounds!!!! hahahaha

KC....They should make that pic into a T-shirt....I for one would buy it!

Congrats on the weight loss! During the months Oct, Nov and Dec, it's hard to lose the weight! Good for you, Tig!

Car troubles are the pits.

Happy Halloween!!
