LOVE you.....

Wishing all the lovers out there, a Happy Valentine's Day! And to my special Valentine, as I said in my card, Everyday is Valentine's Day when you are married to the love of your life.

Such a sad day....

The icon known as Whitney Houston as been taken from us. At the age of 48, so sad, just really, really sad. I think everyone was hoping someday she would make a comeback. Too bad she will never get that chance. Such a loss.........

Breaking news.......Whitney Houston died at age of 48. How tragic!

The new me.....

I snapped this picture so you could see the new 13 pound lighter me!

At 7:25 a.m. this morning, amidst mostly cloudy skies, and temperatures in the low 30s, Groundhog Phil saw his shadow in the little town of Punxsutawney, Pa. If Phil’s forecast is right, it would signal a dramatic reversal from the mild weather pattern affecting much of the country. Many parts of the central and eastern U.S. have seen temperatures 20 to 30 degrees above normal in recent days. On February 1, just 19% of the Lower 48 had snow cover compared to 52% at this time last year

Sad day for the employees of AA

Today the airline I work for exposed their plans to gut everything from us that they didn't get back in 2003. I should be thankful, and I am that I will still have a job, but a job that I will barely recognize after its all said and done. This is the very first step, of a very long process. How will it affect me personally. To start, my health insurance will jump $183 each month. I will lose my incentive pay which equates to about $600 a month. There will be 100's of changes to the way I do my job. Some are welcome changes, like the ability to fly international, (i have been wanting to tap into that for a while). The elimination of full-month reserve (my on-call status 3 times a year) to having a few reserve days each month. The Biggest blow may be the announcement of transiting to a PBS (basically, everything I do for the bid service) will be going automated. How this affects what I do for the bid service, is yet to be seen. Hopefully there still will be a need for me. In the end, we all expected the cuts and changes to the contract, but across the board, we are all shocked at the depth of the cuts. 20%across the board cut from each department, 13,000 layoffs company wide (2300 flight attendants). But If I have a job, and good health, It will all be workable, just no longer enjoyable!
