First the Kudos! I was so excited. I am finally doing good things at work instead of messing up! Yay!!!! have received two compliments from 2 different managers so I'm very happy. The first manager complimented me on my policy writing. I have barely been there a month and was asked to write a policy and procedure for my job. I had no clue what I was doing but did it anyway and she said I did a great job. The second Kudos came from my new manager. I was asked to compile a serious of questions regarding NPI # and submit them to her for discussion. Since the process is so confusing and there are so many rules and questions I also submitted samples with specific highlighted areas and referenced those with the questions. My manager loved it and said it made the process so much easier! I love making so many people happy in one day! Good day for me at work.



Now for the crap.... This weekend is our Strawberry festival. It is an annual event with a parade and carnival. The soon to be ex and I are trying to figure out what to do with the kids. I had to be the one to tell the kids they had to choose and they did not like it. My daughter cried and I cried because I broke her heart. She so wants us to go together to the carnival... I'ts tradition. I think we came up with a compromise but I won't know until later. I just hate breaking my kids hearts. It has always been hard for me not to give them what makes them happy. Lets just say I haven't made them happy in a long time. I went from being "yes' mom to "no" mom. I hate being the bad guy! I can't afford to do the things they want to do, I don't have as much time to do the things they want to do and I can't bring their Dad home either. ARGG! Ok.. back to Tanya's happy place. Just call me happy Tanya. Forget happy Gilmore! I have a happy place too but it is not the same as Gilmores!
