Another Choice

Well, what a week. It's not even "hump" day and I have been up baring this pain with my five teeth without anything. I place it out of my mind as I sooooo - look forward to having them done on Friday. Five teeth have cavities that are going all towards one nerve ending. I find that if I just place something wet on my face for an hour when I get home it does the job for now. From now till Friday is not too long.

As well, there was a person that had a meeting just a few days ago and it is very possible that I will be offered something once again that will be another step forwards in what I love to do. I have not accepted any other jobs, however I had a call late last week and it's for a tremendous position with airports. It's probably the best thing that can happen to me as well as life is not about money but this would be something that I have never thought would come my way.

The board room interview process was an hour long and I was able to get away from my own office. Don't get me wrong I don't live with a CV in my back pocket now. I just knew that if this came along - which it has that I would have to meet and satisfy my curiosity. I am not doing the all or nothing thinking. In fact I am working hard at getting some areas rectified within where I am, while looking forward to getting this Friday over with.

In order to do it the dentist is placing me on laughing gas - I don't know what that has to do with pain, but it's worth a laugh I guess. And then on the same day I will definitely have a call indicating if I have been accepted as a head relations coordinator for several airports.

I am not sure how I will explain this within the current company that I am working for if I do have it, as I have been with them for a short period of time. But within a lifetime in a transient world - we have that choice.

Regardless as I see it - it's a win, win scenario. If I don't have this new position with Airports, I have what I have right now. And that suits me just fine.  And as far as the teeth - they will be fixed as well. So Friday will be a day that will bring about something. And regardless of the outcome - I will not have lost 5 teeth - thank god, and I will still be doing the same job that I am doing right now or I will be doing something new after meeting and giving notice of two weeks.

It's a strange week really, when you take all three things into consideration. But I must admit I am looking forward to Friday.

  2. Most people are looking forward to Fridays because they want to have some free time ahead, you Jack have a lot more to look forward to it seems. A great day in perspective. Meanwhile, a happy humpday!

  3. Best of luck on both the dentists appointment and the job. I have never really gotten the use of laughing gas.....looks like a giggling patient would make the dentists' job much more difficult. I have always heard laughter is the best medicine. (grin) Okay it's lame but I just couldn't resist.

  4. Thank you much Cindy, I have just been taking it easy and I have not been to anyone's blog in the last two days as I am just taking it easy but thank you much. Coming from you means something of value! I sincerely mean that.

  5. How do you say hump day in french c'est t' plait....really how would you write that in french as that is your mother tongue Daniel, and your great with english. Hump Day would translate to ?
    If there is no translation thank you and it's going to snow again, that is within the forecast, or maybe now it's changed, as this old man has been laying down with a wet wash cloth on his face. :>

  6. Man from Sholin Temple dressed up in "lotus position clothes" say, "Grasshopperess - for the man can be red and yet when the sky is blue, it goes to the bathroom in the same room. Make sure the light is turned on when one can not see the blue as then one does a doo doo." :>

    Thank you Norma, I don't believe in luck - but do certainly know what you mean. And the fortune with show itself with the perly whites and a decision on Friday. :_

  7. Hi Jack, really I would not know how to translate hump-day in French. Alta Vista translator is not better than me lol. I have tried and it says jour de la bosse. Litterally, that would be the translation but it does not mean anything similar to the meaning it has in English. Lets just say le point culminant de la semaine. It is middle of the week, a peak going towards farniente of the weekend I guess. This week we will have a camel week lol, with another hump on Friday, just for you, another peak of activity before the calm of the weekend. We will have to think of a nickname for you, just for that... let`s see... M... maybe. Good night my friend.

  8. G'day Jack,
    The saying goes, "All good things comes to those that wait", it appears your waiting is almost over, the end to mouth pain along with the outcome for the new work proposition, two big deals for you, I wish you well in both

  9. Long day Wendy,
    Yes tomorrow will be a day teeth and see what happens with an offer. And with all that the weather that is so bizarre - we are suppose to have snow again for the first time in three weeks. Crazy Friday!
    But I can wait. Deals can happen, teeth will be done, and who knows what will happen but that is what takes place. Time to get some water and then I think I am going to have a shower as I have worked till late....so with that said, as I sleep - I will wait :)

  10. All the best Jack on the job and getting those teeth fixed.
    I'm not brave at all when it comes to the dentist. I will travel far and wide to find a dentist who will give me laughing gas and I'll not let him anywhere near my teeth until it has taken affect.
    Hope your weekend is one of relaxation and enjoyment.

  11. I should have read this post before making my comment about your not having to worry about the white stuff, lol.

  12. We did not get the white stuff, and the teeth are done. All is well and thank you as I am sipping on water. Three hours and now the teeth are all done.

    The position I didnt get a call with. But this is alright. I am with one good job and I am fine with that. If you would have, if I could have - hey it did not get it , but I got the teeth done all five and hey I am alive.

    By tomorrow seriously there is snow in the forecast. so it may snow yet. it's cold enough - but then then once again the sun will rise and all will change.
