The Latest and a bit more

Updating anyone interested in what is going on at work, and small bit about my current situation.

Next up at the casino for a concert event? Finally one for the country fans...Keith Anderson. He will be performing on Friday, October 12th., most likely around 9pm. We also have 2 big race days approaching, "The Race for the Ribbon" to aid the battle against breast cancer on  Saturday September 22nd., and the West Virginia  Classic on Saturday October 22nd.

These of course promise to be very busy nights. For the past two weeks I have been an acting supervisor every day I have worked due to vacations and folks out sick. I am still enjoying it, but they did kick my butt tonight, the calls for medicals seemed non-stop.

As for my eventual transition into a full time supervisor? It's coming. I am in no serious rush. There are other changes that need to occur before I can be permanently in that spot. When the call comes I will be ready.

 For those that doubted me, poo on you. I have welcomed the challenge, and I am still learning. For the most part  this is the one job I have ever had that has not caused me to moan about it being the same old routine. I seem to be thriving according to upper management, they are happy with my work. I have to admit I was never that ambitious before, and I made choices to preserve family health over job growth. Now that I have only myself I am welcoming the challenges presented before me without worrying what was happening when I was not home.

No one should have to live with that kind of worry. It was very pain filled., an endless cycle and I am so glad to be free of it. I had wanted so badly to be able to trust the forever untrustworthy. It was never going to happen.

I have been very fortunate to have been able to win battles these past years. Some of which I had never thought I could win. I am stronger, and a great deal more confident about myself than I have ever been before.  Yes..I AM an optimist. I've done it alone and I am justifiably proud of myself for doing so. If I had taken the time to find this part of me before those lost years it is very likely they would not have happened. Maybe a couple of dates, a sad realization, then I would have moved on.  As of right now the person I trust the most is myself. And I know that the 'me' of today would not have tolerated any of what went on under an untruthful roof. I certainly deserve better than that and I continue to move forward to finding it.

If it does mean being alone? Oh well..I am ok with that too. I am quite capable of having fun without a man around. Most of them seem forever guided by their little brains.
