Agreed! If someone knows! It is so hard to wait!!!
 
Oooooh, this is fun! But it had better be good because of all this anticipating that we're stirring up in each other!! My plans to go out to night have about 75% fallen through and I think I'll just scrap them so I can do this call. Plus I just bought a new Christmas tree today, so then I can be home to decorate it with the kids until their bedtime, with a nice little break to do this conference call!! Yay!
 
This is fun! I'm imagining all of us in a room together right now and am laughing my head off!!!!!!!!!!! :D
 
Me three.. DISH girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
This is fun!! I am excited about the call, too. I've heard from an Exec that they would be adjusting the Career Plan. I didn't think it would happen this soon!! Hopefully, that's what it is!! Can't wait for the call!
 
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!I'm so ready to burst!!!! 5 hours until the D call... 2 hours until the AD call and we get some info!!!!!!!I don't think I've EVER had this much anticipation over anything! I better step away from the peanut M&Ms... they aren't helping me stay calm!
 
Well, we could all get together at my house here in South Dakota, I have about 100 gourmet cupcakes for my Winery Event tomorrow night we could munch on!

Could you at least let me know if it would be exciting for my team to hear? I am thinking I'll do the last hour of my meeting as "a sneak peak into a director perk" but if it's not something I should share just yet...

Can you call me after the call?? 919-340-9008
 
I'm feeling a little sick to my stomach. In a good way.

Oh the excitement!
 
Okay... I'm outta here and off to the recruiting interview! Can't wait to get home and log on!!!!!!
 
Just joining the Adv. Dir. Call -- anyone wanting email update post your email here and I will email as the call progresses.

Beth I can call you if email won't work... let me know :-)
