So I met with HR for the investigation of my coworker. I told the truth, I didn't elaborate and did not speculate even though that is what they were asking me to do. The truth of what she did is now on record and I did what I was legally responsible to do. She is still trying to manipulate me but I am busy enough and slippery enough to steer clear of her. I also have a voicemail from her asking me to cover for her so she best not come gunning for me. Sadly she is so wrapped up in her own denial and lies she cannot see her way clear.
At the end of my meeting with HR the director asked me "this has been difficult for you, is there anything we can do to help you?" And I said, I am doing fine I have a supportive husband and wonderful daughter and I will get through this. And that was also the truth.
Ladies your support has meant the world to me. Maybe this saga is not over but for me I have turned a page and turned toward the positive and later today I am going for a walk. The end. NYKAREN7 -

@Lagopus Penny - love the web link to the cruise ship locations! I've been thinking about taking a cruise to Alaska in the future to try my wings at cruising. If that went well my next choice is a cruise to visit the northen countries of Europe - Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland.
For some reason they appeal to me much more than the tropical destination cruises.

NYKaren You handled that like a champ. I know it was painful & caused you anxiety and cost you sleep. I am so glad this part is over. Sending a hug & a beverage.

@csofled Cheri - don't know if you have access to MFP today, but I am thinking of you today as you move your daughter into her new apartment. Hope your drive from Ohio was uneventful. It looks like you have a nice dry day!

Paper's out! DH can't come in from the ranch tonight, disappointing. But, for a change, I actually have some energy, so might just make the long trek out there instead and surprise him, like he surprised me Sunday by coming in to put my bathroom floor in... Still trying to decide. Would miss out on three badly needed hours in the warehouse in the a.m., but that work will still be there whether I am or not.
The sigh of relaxation at the paper when that last file goes to the printer is palpable, honestly, you can hear it whoosh through the whole building. Having a true accomplishment every week is extremely gratifying after years of incremental growth only visible over years... Been an interesting week, too, had a murder locally, as well as a lady convicted of killing her uncle 25 years ago who was declared innocent by a judge this week--and that case is getting national attention. Opinion is, of course, quite mixed here. Plus a guy stole eight big truck batteries from the local car parts store, and the staff helped them carry them to his car! Wild doin's indeed for our tiny town.
Back to finish the online upload, and then decide whether to bolt at 4 and go to the ranch. Have a lovely day, my peeps... and MARY! Welcome back!
Heather, sounds as if you're in your element.
Love y'all,
Lisa in West Texas

Did 20 min walking. Had to stop because of chest pains. Then fell getting off treadmill. I really am out of shape. No heart issues. Have had many tests. Am having balance problems so can only walk on treadmill.

NYKaren, you did an awesome job in answering those scary questions and in replying to the director about they could do anything for you...you were sane and balancedHeather, just being so far north would be enough for me even with less than exciting travelers on the ship with youMary, great workout
for anyone contemplating heavy weights, you don't have to use Mary's weights as a guide....where she lifts 135 pounds, I lift 60---where she lifts 85 pounds, I lift 30---the idea is to lift the heaviest weight you can for 5 reps, then take a short break and do it again until you've done the lift 5X5Charleen, I look to the north for travel ideas, too...I have two favorite holiday photos of my---one in Juneau, Alaska and the other in Barrow north of the Arctic Circle....I'd love to travel as far north as where Penny lives and have no desire to go south unless it would be to Antarctica.
At line dance class today, the teacher taught two dances from Saturday's workshop and tomorrow she'll teach two more. Barbie from drizzly NW Washington 2 -
My son has a moving date for the first week in July. They got their mortgage on Monday.
The talk this evening was about Norway's resistance to the German occupation in WWII. I was really enjoying it, but fell asleep. DH said I snorted.
Combination of no sleep last night and a travel pill. Plus wine with dinner.
I've been really appreciating the waiters on the trip. Nearly all are Philippinos. They are very skilled at looking as if they love their job and making a big fuss of the most needy. Including me! They always remember your peculiar preferences. Watching them doing their best with difficult people is an education in patience. A real skill.
DH joined me for dinner and had a light bite. It's quite a bit calmer now. All the dancing and live shows were cancelled, but it really is calming down. Tomorrow we have a celebrity chef off the TV talking about gluten free cooking.
I will swim first thing and wash my hair. Tomorrow 's dress code is "informal" which means a bit better than smart casual. Their is a Captain's Cocktail party for those new to cruising, which is us. :bigsmile:
The day after tomorrow we arrive at Longyearbyen and meet up with Penny!
Love Heather, in permanent daylight.4 -
NY Karen: I am so impressed by your courage and honesty. Its a privilege to know you. :flowerforyou:1

I don't understand at all, why you have to beg for money when you have a job and earn money. That's just not right.

Thank you to everyone who was wishing me luck! I have verbally accepted the offer of a full-time position as data engineer for an amazing, nerdy, successful technology company a mile from my house and around the corner from my gym. #priorities
I'm so excited!
