My background is in Administrative and Office Management...my husband was in the military and so I was always learning something new....But I must say, I have the best job right now with censoring the movies that come into our compound...always been a lover of movies and now I get to watch them all day...one draw-back...I have to watch films I wouldn't normally watch....but that's okay...I love the no pressure of this job...

My husband is a white collar crime investigator for Saudi Aramco...

Hi,

I presently own a franchise for Management Recruiters International. My website is www.thesciantgroup.com. Before I was a headhunter, I lived and worked in Europe in full scale production, live shows, concerts and casting for tv. And before that I worked in publishing for 12 years as a Marketing Director. I like to reinvent myself every 5 years or so.....

I am an RN. I work full time in obstetrics, 11pm to 7am, and I love my job! Nothing better than cuddling with a newborn and getting paid for it!

I just recently went back to work after taking 2 years to be a SAHM to my 4-year old and almost 2-year-old twins. Now I am a social worker working with families who have had their children removed by Protective Services. The job is ok (actually I like it more than I originally thought I would) but the people that I work with are AWESOME! I love going to work! Before babies, I was the Director of a Sexual Assault Program north of Austin. I liked that job too, but it was too much with a special-needs infant (now my 4-year-old handfull). My husband is a police officer, works 11p-7a.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
