Yay!! It's the weekend!!

Phew....it has been one looong week! But it is Saturday and I'm loving it. Claire and Erin are both at the inlaws. My FIL has been having serious back problems and had a bad night last night and he said he thought it would make him feel better if Claire came over. Knock me over with a feather! LOL So, they are both over there. Claire will eat supper with them and Erin is going to party tonight so it is kind of nice. I've gotten a little accomplished. I cleaned out the fish tank, washed a couple of loads of clothes and have dishwasher going....sounds like a pretty productive day to me! LOL I'm waiting on my friend in Mississipi to call me. I was worried about how much rain they may have gotten from Rita because she has those two big holes in her roof. And I saw there was a flood warning for the coastal area which is where she is. She was in WalMart when I called her and she said it was a madhouse. But her cell reception was bad so she is supposed to call me back.
We had one of our monthly meetings at work yesterday morning so had to go in early for that. Boooring. Anyways, they have a new girl entering our surgery charges. She has no experience with it and is making tons of mistakes and that is our main money. So after the meeting, I got called into the office and asked if I would consider returning to surgery coding. My first question was how much more they would pay me. It is a stressful job because the doctors are so difficult to deal with. They don't listen to you when you tell them you can't code certain things certain ways and want you to do it anyways. The job I have right now is not stressful (to me) for the most part and I enjoy doing it so I expect to be compensated if I'm going to take on a more stressful job that I don't really want. I pay over $500 a month in insurance for family coverage and I told them if they wanted to pay that for me.... But of course, they don't. So I told them thanks for thinking of me but I like my job right now. Who knows....maybe they'll reconsider but I would have to think really hard about it. Like I said, they would definitely have to make it worth my while. And they don't really have anyone else with the experience to do it except the nurses and they are barely keeping up with it as it is.
Anyways, we are taking the youth group to a concert tomorrow night at another church. I don't remember who the band is....I haven't heard of them but hopefully they will enjoy it. And they sent out a schedule of parents to help every week with the programs so that is a big load off of me. I'm in charge of the program the night we go to the haunted house or haunted trail or whatever we do. Well, I guess I'll do some house work? Probably not....maybe play around on the computer. hee hee
