Again At A Standstill

  
                                                                              Everyday is a brand new day,
                                                                               everyday is a journey.




Quench thou the fires of hate and strife,
    The wasting fever of the heart;
  From perils guard our feeble life,
    And to our souls Thy peace impart.
J. H. NEWMAN, Tr. 

So the latest from the work front is that we are at a standstill. We will not be moving forward with the new Company starting November 1. It has been postponed until a whole month later, December 1. We all have been on tender hooks all week long, working a lot of overtime to finish up our orders by the due date. We have made adjustments to our lifestyle for the three closing dates we were to be closed without pay for the change to occur. We made accommodations by allotting some vacation days for those dates all to no avail.

Now, that doesn't mean we are not being transitioned from New Avon LLC to Fareva, because we are, just a month later. I want to clarify that point in case people think that negotiations have gone sour. They haven't, it's just that the transition from the legal side of things, the paperwork, the computers and such are not ready. It's like when we move from one home to the next, it takes a lot of work, doesn't it? 

As to my neighbor Allison, I rarely see her now. I wonder if I scared her away with my constant knocking on her door. Maybe, she wants to be alone. Occasionally, her car is parked outside, but weekends are spent elsewhere. Maybe her family or some friend? This is a total first for me. My involvement is usually welcomed and a friendship is formed from it. Her behavior totally baffles for me.

There is nothing, but gloominess outside with overcast clouds and rain. Again! I should have known it was coming, because my sleep has been interrupted constantly for the past several nights. My knees have felt like cement blocks, I tossed and turned aimlessly. I am exhausted.

Same thing in regards to Emily's work situation. She has been training basically her replacement so she can move over to another department. That was the plan originally, but now it looks like it might not happen. Or at least, another delay. Her replacement has not shown up the last two times which probably means she no longer will be coming in. Very disappointing when you try to train someone in order for you to move up. The delay is difficult, because no one wants to wait longer than what is necessary. Her manager is not easy to work with and that's a major reason why people don't want to stay. 

As you can see, things have stopped altogether, just when we thought they were beginning to move. How very disheartening. How very disappointing. Sigh.

Have a blessed day everyone.
