So back to the busy week I've had at work. On Monday, it was a back-to-the-grind kind of day. But there seemed to be a strange air about the day. And at 4:50pm, we figured out why. The HR woman and the GM came down to our department and announced they had just fired our boss. It took every ounce of self-control for each of us to keep a straight, serious face while they spoke to us. But we did it. There were high-5's flying and we were jumping for joy the moment they left. It was a LONG time coming, and it finally, actually, really happened. We had to pinch ourselves that we weren't dreaming.
Since that moment, I was kind of promoted to the "manager" of the department. Which so far has been a little crazy. We've been uncovering all the items of business that the former boss had been neglecting for quite some time. It's been a long couple of days trying to re-organize the calendar and schedule projects that we didn't even know existed. We'll get there, it'll take time to start running smoothly, but we're happy and relieved that he's finally gone!
And I guess that's about all that's been going on around here. It's now December, time to start thinking about Christmas!! Decorating to commence this weekend...

Congratulations on your new position. Love the kiss cookies, I'm with Eric, they're my favorite too. We also have a treadmill which is rarely used. We got an exercise bike last year which I love and use daily when I can't get out. It took us a little trial and error to find the right piece of equipment for us.
So happy for you. Work should be a good place to be. What a relief! Also your cookies look yummy and the treadmill would be good for me too. I have a nordic track that sometimes gets away from me so you won't find me on it much. Roger's elliptical proved to big for me!
Loved the tree as usual. And we enjoyed the cookies on our drive home. Your father is using the treadmill at exercise place three times a week. He will be ready for the Turkey Trot next year
Glad about the job.
