I have had to take my not smoking one day at a time lately even though it's been over 6 months since I quit. My Ghillie starts a steroid treatment this evening and a new antibiotic, but the steroids make him VERY sick. We are hoping he can stop those in 6-8 weeks when the cancer drugs start to work. I know he is a dog and so many of you have much worse things going on, but we love him so!
My "acting" director has been trying to get rid of me since she became the "acting" director by default. Yesterday she thinks she succeeded. She confronted me with her boss in a meeting I thought was routine, accused me of policy violation, which was absurd, and I became so emotionally upset that I was sobbing and told her I needed to go home for the rest of the day and could not return to my room to care for my babies in this state. She demanded I sign the phony charges against me. I told her I needed to look them over first. I barely made it to my car before falling apart. I have been there for 10 years and feel that God lead me to this place. I love the babies, their families and the center. I was just devastated.
Three hours later I received a message from her saying that since I refused to sign the papers and left the church without her permission, that was considered my resignation. I called her this morning and told her I did NOT resign and was coming to work. She told me I could not. I asked if she was firing me. She said NO! So then I requested a meeting with the Executive Committee of the church. They will meet on March 7th and I may send them an appeal in writing. I'll ask a few of my families to also help.
Sorry this is so long and whiney! But I have had to take my quit one day at a time, and several times, one hour at a time. I will NOT smoke, but these are huge triggers.
