Feeling Burnt Out by Work

Hey there. I've had a pretty rough stretch of work these past couple of weeks and I feel like it's time for some time off. The problem? I'm not sure when I can take it... I was hoping to get a day off this week... That's not going to happen. I was hoping to take a week off, you know a "vacation", but I don't know when that's going to happen either. I've been swamped with work and reports and research that it's simply burning me out. The plan, as of a few minutes ago, looks something like this:

Wednesday: Conference calls with accounts.
Thursday: Go to San Francisco to meet with an account on Thursday. (Nothing is reserved)
Friday: Reporting needs to be entered and research needs to be presented in sales meeting. Conference calls with Customer Service to discuss issues.

And on top of that, my son is having his hearing checked again so I can't be there for him... AGAIN!!! I feel as if I just need to step away for a bit. Let myself recover from the chaos that is my job.  I need a vacation... bad...  but with all the work that needs to be done... who knows when that will happen.  Later!

“Arby’s Juniorize” Me

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Arby's. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hey there friends.  Those of you who know me know I love food.  I've never been one to pass up a great burger or sandwich.  Especially if it's on the low side in terms of dollars.  That is one the reason's why I've always been a fan of Arby's.  Not only are they're burgers and sandwiches great, but they're at a low price too.  And to promote the awesomeness that is Arby's, here's Junior (retro-cool Arby’s Jr. character) with a few words. 

Notice anything about "Junior"?  That's my face!  HA!  You can Create Your Own Personalized Arby's Jr. and add a personal message to spread the word about Arby's!  I've always loved the interactive side of things and I uploaded a pretty goofy photo of myself and the result is what you see above!  HA!  Check it out and friends and create your own "Junior" and send to friends with a personalized message of your choosing!  Arby's makes it extremely easy to share with just a few clicks.  So let's see (and hear it) friends.  What does your Junior say!?  Until then, later!!!

The Truth About Mirrors

Not sure what's wrong with you ladies but there's nothing wrong with the mirror!

What's the Medical Term for Lazy?

A man worried about his stamina decided to go to a doctor to get checked out.

"Doc, I'm just not able to do all the things around the house that I used to.  What's wrong with me?"

The doctor then starts his examination and once he's finished, he gives the man an uneasy look.

"Doc, just tell me in plain english.  I can take it.", the man declares.

"Well," the doctors says, "in plain English...  you're just lazy."

"Ok...", says the man, "now give me the medical term so I can tell my wife that."

Charter’s Back-to-School Campaign is Giving Away 50 Laptops

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Charter. All opinions are 100% mine.



Hey there friends.  Charter Communications have been on fire with their widely successful give-a-way campaigns.  They've managed to give away XBOX 360's, a hybrid car, a Camaro, laptops, and HD TV's all for their growing customer base.  They have decided to carry on the give-a-way campaigns but have decided to switch it up a bit.  Not only are they giving away laptops to customers, but will be giving away 50 laptops to two lucky schools.

As part of Charter's laptop-a-day giveaway they are offering the chance to nominate a school of your choice to win 50 laptops for students.  You click on the above link and register for a chance to win your own laptop and then nominate a school.  It really is that simple.  The laptops are Lenovo G555's with a 15.6" screen, 160GB drive and 3GB ram (with a Targus bag) which is a pretty impressive machine will be more than enough to help out lucky students in getting ahead in their education.

Schools will need to be nominated by August 12th and 50 finalists will be selected by August 16th so there is still time to nominate your school.  Once the 50 finalists are announced, the voting will begin so have your friends and family vote for your school to win!  The two winning schools will then be announced on Sept. 27th.

 

Ordering services from Charter will not increase your chances to win, however, they will offer an automatic entry for a laptop and up to $300 cash back.  You can register online without ordering so feel free to check out the registration page here and sign up yourself and your school!

Make sure to check out Charter on Facebook to make sure you're on top of all things Charter.  With great promotions and give-a-ways like this, how do you not want to follow Charter.  Best of luck to you and your school!  Later!
