Interview

Hi all, hope all is well with everyone.

My interview went very well yesterday! So good in fact, that the girl that interviewed me said she wished we'd be working at the same school. A nice compliment! But there are still ropes to tend to. The down side is that I've been self employed for 20 years. All previous work history to that was in the 80's & some of those offices are either closed down, or folks are gone now. They did not want to take my last job into consideration for references, although I still have a few contact numbers from them.

Upside is, I have two friends that also work for the school district, so I gave them their names & numbers for references. Hopefully, they'll accept that. It's up to the Human Resource department to consider that avenue.

Then I was still feeling a bit funky with the sore throat. So I went to the doctor. If I'm possibly going to work with kids, then I need to be sure I don't have anything contagious. As it turns out, my sore throat is viral, but I'm at the tail end of it. The reason I've not healed totally yet is due to allergies. Good thing I didn't try to mow the acreage on Wednesday like I wanted to! So I just have to remember to keep taking my allergy pills & it'll clear up.

This morning I spent time outside doing some work, but stayed clear of things that I'd react to. As well as I could. Got all the dogs tended to & cleaned out my black holding tank! Whew, that really needed to be done. It's one of those tasks that's easier to put off then to address ;-)

So all work is done, it's noon & the skies broke loose. I'm glad they waited till I got my chores done.
I'm alone this weekend, so will enjoy that time off. Need to mess around inside of the RV, clean it & put stuff away.

But first things first, a nap may be in order! Plus I went to the library yesterday & got 6 movies to watch over the weekend. That probably was way too many movies, but I have them for awhile before I have to return them, so maybe some will be viewed next weekend as well.

Have a great day everyone!

Comments

Oh blast it anyhow! I've been trying the past several days to leave comments on blogs, but I keep losing my internet connections. Then I have to give up. So I just wanted to let folks know that I've been reading & if you get any comments from me, consider yourself lucky (yes, I am that important! haha). Otherwise, I tried, but got dumped again! Too bad they don't get saved, but nope. I just get a stupid blank window with IE telling me I have no connection - again.
And again.
 And again.
 And grrrrr

Today was a busy day for me. I cleaned out two junk bags that I toss stuff into today. One had two flashlights in it, a tiny radio, stuff like that. I have a bad habit of when I'm cleaning, if I don't know where to put something, I'll toss it into a bag & deal with it later. Today was that later day.

Then I went through my dogs leash/collar bag & cleaned it out. Washed the leads & collars, then laid them out in the sun to dry.

Then I went insane & mowed the lawn. My friends have a riding mower, so it's not really that bad of a chore to do. In fact, I kind of like mowing as long as it's not too hot outside. It would not be possible for me to mow if they didn't have the riding mower though. I don't have to use the foot at all for that job. So I mowed the front yard, both side yards. Then went into the house & fixed dinner. Then fed dogs. It was still light out, so I mowed the back yard...then the mower died. It needs gas. Gas can empty, so I left it sitting there.
Then decided to rake up the pile of dirt/leaves/weeds. I worked till I went blind. Well actually, it got dark & I could not see anymore. So I quit. Now I have fans blowing on me to cool off.

Did I mention they have 3 acres here? I mowed 2 of them.

I think it's time to take a shower. And if you are still reading this, then you need a life like me ;-) 

Hope ya'll have had a great day!!
