Ready for a new and better year.

This year has been a very rough year for my husband and me. I have been trying to learn a very math and science oriented job, with my boss nagging me to get my busy trainers to train me when they are short of help and are doing a million things at the same time. I got a threat from my boss that if i wasn't trained on direct transfers, the cip and half of a filter train by the 2nd quarter, he would have me transferred to a different area( needless to say i don't work well with threats, i first get very nervous and the a slight bigger motivation in my head that i can never act on and the then i get this "screw it" type attitude because i give 110% at my job so if people want more i cant give it to them) well needless to say i didn't get my raise that i was told i would get at my 3 months of starting, so money has been tight because i took a pay cut do to Pfizer have better benefits,vacation ect. my Pekingese Ambroshus scratched her eye needing a big surgery that cost us over $800. i found out everyone at my old job (as an animal control officer) received $4.00 and hour raises. So work has been the highlight of stress in my life this years. Also with the lack of money our central air conditioner when out and we didn't have air for two weeks this summer when it was 90 degree weather, our heater went out and our close drier went out. or bathroom sink was leaking bad so we couldn't use it. but thanks to my handy dad and our appliance repair program we have with our gas company we got them all fixed for free luckily. my grandparent got put into a nursing home an i was helping my mom with that.

on a more positive note

I woke up one day and all of a sudden had an immense amount of motivation . I have my entire up stairs organized and clean including closets, the fridge, cabinets ect. I have a cleaning schedule And even a budget worked out for next year so we will be able to save more money. My good friend Jordan that i have been friends with for 15 years has moved in with us and will stay for a year and pay rent to us. I must admit i love being home owner so i can be the land lord.
So my goal is to keep my motivation with help from entities above and i think it will be a lot more positive year, next year. I also am not really enjoying my new job do to all my other colleauges being lazy and i get stuck doing their work, my boss does nothing about this situation so i became very depressed and bitter, untill..... i found out i can go back to college and Pfizer will pay for it. All i have to do is pass the class with a B or a C i prefer a B and also i can not get fired. I just need to concentrate, pay attention to detail, and have a positive attitude
