At the zoo, last summer. If only I could easily remove the chick in the background....
Yesterday I cleaned the house. But I didn't apply for any jobs. Because I didn't feel like it.
Today I played racquetball (yay!) and applied for 3 jobs. One is particularly interesting because it's part-time. Monday and Tuesday. I think this would work for me. Maybe. I finally heard from UNM (by e-mail), and discovered I did not get the job I thought would be so awesomely good for me. Oh, well. I had a good cry, and am really over it now. Romeo was so sweet, he kept texting me to find out how I was feeling about it, giving me all kinds of appreciated supportive words. He knew that I was really excited about that position. We had talked about it before I got the news, and I admitted that although there is a possibility that I would get it, I wouldn't put all my hopes in getting it. Basically, I lied. In many ways I thought it would be perfect for me, but alas, it was not to be.
It was beautiful here today. The next week day we have a day in the 50's (w/no wind, please) I am going to the zoo. Take some photos, wander around, check out the gift shops. Why not take advantage of being out of work? I can only apply for so many jobs, and then you just get sick of the whole thing. If there was a way to stay home all the time, I would do it. My oldest son has a very high paying position and offered to pay for me to continue to go to school. But I really NEED to work. It wouldn't be the greatest financial decision to stay home. So, I continue. Soldier on. Put on my big girl panties, lol.
Love, 365
I'm sorry about the job. I understand the feeling, having been there before. Now I have a job I love but I don't make shit for money. If I had to live on what I make, I would be living in a hole in the ground. I'd have enough food, but that's about it.
ReplyDeleteI'll be doing a bit of house cleaning myself. I need to do a LOT of it.
Thanks, Ami. I appreciate it! Like you, I just want work that I would enjoy. I will keep on looking.
DeleteUgh, house cleaning. I like to put music on and sing (which no one wants to hear, so it's a good thing everyone else is at work), or dance around (another thing no one else shoudl see, lol). It does make the job go faster though!
