Ahhhhh

My co-worker is leaving. She’s going to work for the family business; something she’d always planned to do with her life. Congrats for you! With that being said, there are p-l-e-n-t-y of hours available for working at my place. Apply away.

I’ve been very impressed with myself the past few days. I’ve managed to organize myself in such a way that I’m leaving the house at my targeted times without being in a tizzy. Sometimes (and you reader moms know what I mean), you try your best, but it just doesn’t happen. Sure, with a little extra pedal power, you arrive at your destination on time, but your heart is racing and your blood pressure’s up from the hurry. No need to hurry so. The past few weeks, for my Thursday shifts, Jono would drive to work, then come home early, and I’d head out. The point being that Jamayia was then able to take her afternoon nap uninterrupted. But it’s such a hassle for him to do all that back and forth too. So today, we did things the old way. He bussed to work, and I left home to pick him up, cutting nap time short. I actually left early and therefore got to work early too. It was such a pleasant change.

Now if only I could leave work in such a non-hurriedly and unfrazzle manner, things would be a slice!

Welcome Back, Sundays

I no longer have to work Sundays. I used to work Sundays & Thursday evenings. Now it’s just Tuesday & Thursday evenings, with my Sundays free. The store has adjusted their hours for the summer, and they’re now closed on Sundays. By the way, they’re hiring big time. So, if you’re job hunting, talk to me…

So, there was a bit of damage to my car. About $450 worth. They’ll have to remove the back bumper and clean up the scratches. There’s also a slight chance that the repair people might find more damage. We’ll see what happens.

I also got a library card today. I haven’t had one since I was in elementary school. Remember the days when the cards were paper, and yellow and the entire library system was practically manual?? LOL…yeah, that long ago. But, since I don’t really have any book purchasing funds, nor much room to store purchased books, why not borrow?? Smart plan, right?! So, I took out two books, and now have 3 weeks to either read or renew them. Should be the start of fun times. I also realized that my new card means that a whole new world is opened to me. I have the chance to read all kinds of books, not just the inspirational/religious fiction stuff that I enjoy. I can learn more about improving my blog, about working from home, about parenting, about anything I want. Hmm…the possibilities are endless.

But, I’m quite pooped after a busy day. We also stopped in to see Jono at work, and even went for a quick bite to eat. I also finally got the meet the one guy who had interviewed Jono for this job. It’s been just over 2 yrs since my guy’s been there, but I’ve never met the dude across the hall. Guess I need to make more spur of the moment visits… So tomorrow? Prolly nothing but chillin at home…
