Stupid Country Coach called me back to work. I could not really say no, as that would mean that I would lose my unemployment and be cashless. I am doing a different job now, working in the spray booth of the same cabinet shop that I had been transfered into. I like it, but it is going to take some getting used to. It is just so freaking hot in ( Read more... )

Yesterday Luis called me from Best Buy. He was asking me questions on what to look for in a computer. Yep, he bought a new computer. It is an E Machine. That was what my very first computer was. This one is a bit cooler than our old dinosaur we have been using. It has 320 GB, and hardly anything on it, leaving us tons of room for picture software ( Read more... )

So far feeding the horses in the mornings is going well. I know that if I am working and they go on vacation I am not going to be able to do the AM feeding. They have a neighbor who has a few horses of her own. She is doing the PM feedings right now, but if this goes on when I am working I am going to have to switch with her. I have to admit that I ( Read more... )

Ok, maybe I do not hate rats, but I hate that they die so soon. I hate that they can get sick so easily. I hate that I love them so much in that short time. I hate that I hurt so bad when they leave ( Read more... )

I actually got one of my small little checks today, so took it out and blew it. Well, not really. I did get some things that I had to have, such as shampoo and pants. I did though go a bit overboard on my girls and bought all three clothes. Jessy needed a coat and well, it felt good. Bad me. I did not spend too much, my check was too small to do ( Read more... )

Down to my last day and a half. I am starting to feel physically ill just thinking of going back to work on Monday. I had forgotten how great it was to have my hands not hurt. Why? Why must I destroy myself to help my family? I must start making better choices ( Read more... )

Am I too old to go to College? Could I still get a Bachalors degree? I would love to be a social worker. I want to be a foster care social worker and help families. I wonder if an online university's degree would work? So many questions. Where do I go for the answers? I tried calling some of the offices of Lane Community College to see if they ( Read more... )

I am actually thinking of putting in an application on another job. I ran across one on the employment departments web site that sounds like it is for Sony. It would be a gamble, but one that might pay off in the long run. I think that they only work days, but will have to look into that before I make up my mind. It says though that they hire you ( Read more... )

I am not sure how I am going to survive financially to this layoff. I should be out looking for another job, but just do not want to. I like being home, but I also would love to give this new position at work a chance as well. I hope that this is the last lay off we have for awhile and that Country Coach is able to make a come back, or I will have ( Read more... )

Pepper so far is doing well. The only problem I have found with him is that he loves me a bit too much, lol. He follows me around and loves to cuddle, but the thing that we need to work on is that it is not ok to try and hump mommy's leg. I told him I like him but not that much, hehe. So does Humper sound like a better name? I am just kiding. He is ( Read more... )
