The Perfect Job
I had an interview on Tuesday.
For a job that would have been PERFECT for me. An exact fit.
It was a drop in hours…but we could have afforded it.
It would have been worth it.
She offered it to me.
I couldn’t take it.
Why? Why not take the perfect job? The one I have been waiting for?
The position wasn’t benefited. I needed ONE more shift every two weeks to be in a benefited position.
I carry the insurance for my family, my husband’s job doesn’t offer it.
I passed on the perfect job.
I’m heartbroken…but we have insurance and are healthy.
Eventually, I will get my perfect job.
Cha Cha Cha Changes
I hate and love this time of year all at the same time.
This year is proving to be worse than most.
There are SO many changes happening here, peeps. I’m trying really hard to wade my way through and keep my head above water but HOLY CANNOLI can I get some peace?
I start classes back up in about 2 weeks (BOOO). I like school. Really. I do. I’m just already exhausted and the idea of adding 3 classes to my plate does NOT sound appealing. Nor does taking a chance of screwing up the 3.89 GPA I have managed to keep. I will be teh angry if I mess that up.
Chase starts preschool *SOB* the second week of September. I’M NOT READY. He, however, is all sorts of ready to get out of this house and away from his baby brother and will be fine. He is also pretty much potty trained. I find that to be fantastic. Even more so that my lovely mother in law basically took care of that while I was away. Word.
We will 99% be moving in November. Phooey. I love this place, but the 8-ball says we need to suck it up and live somewhere cheaper until I am finished school. So, once again…moving right before Christmas. Wonderful.
Then there is the thing of which I cannot speak. I am gag ordered due to courts and judges and stuff…but there could be some big changes in a pretty big part of our life. We should know SOMETHING soon. So keep your fingers crossed for us, m’kay?
In a couple weeks I will submit my official petition to enter clinical in my school’s nursing program. I am done all of my pre-requisites so this is the big shebam. I would begin clinical fall of 2011. I am not super nervous about it, I really want to start Fall 2012 when Chase is in kindergarten, so we will see. I should know by January if I am in or not. Don’t hold your breath, probably not getting in.
I am working hard to make some changes in my work schedule. Let’s just say the schedule I have now is the worst thing you could possibly imagine. I am hoping to change it to something tolerable. I am currently being ignored about it. It’s making me rammy. They aren’t going to like me soon.
So yeah. A lot going on. Forgive me if I seem to be losing my mind a little bit in the next coming months. This is going to be an interesting year.
Grumble Grumble.
I’m grumpy today. So I am going to enlighten you all with an incredibly unoriginal post about what makes me grumpy. And annoyed. And generally just pissed the eff off. Cause you KNOW you really want to know.
* When the mailman pulls into our development right as I am pulling out. I am SO OCD about getting the mail and it makes me nuts to have to go to work without getting it out of the mailbox.
* People who come to the ER seeking detox and then sign themselves out AMA (against medical advice) 30 minutes after they get admitted. HOLY PAPERWORK BATMAN. So irritating.
*Being damp. I worked at my serving job on Wednesday night and when they washed the floors in the kitchen the cuffs of my pants got wet. Then I sat down and they touched my bare calf. EWWWWWW.
*The fact I dumped an entire plate of Chinese food that I was SO looking forward to eating all over my car yesterday.
*Trying to wrangle the kids + diaper bag + work bag + lunch ALL the way to another parking lot to my car because they are resealing the macadam in front of our house. WTF. The freaking pavement was fine before. Fuckers. They are out to get me.
*Pumping my own gas. You would think that after 10 years in this god forsaken state I would be used to it. But no. I miss living in New Jersey.
* Knowing that class starts back up again in two weeks from Monday. I wouldn’t care so much if I wasn’t taking a math class. Me and math? We don’t really see eye to eye.
*Having no kiddie medicine in the house because it all got fracking recalled.
*Knowing that if I get into the nursing program that I want I will be able to do NOTHING fun next summer. Nothing. At. All.
Sigh. I’m depressing myself. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
