Job search

I've decided to apply for another position at the school rather than the previous one I was interviewed for. The first job was a part time position, which appealed to me, but after thinking it through, it was also a job that I was to be at 5 days a week. 4.5 hours a day at a pay rate that isn't really all that great.

So I've applied for a sub position instead. The pay is better, hours are longer, which makes the pay better. But I will have freedom of choosing what school, what type of position & if I want to work the next day or not.

Since the pay is better, I can work the  school year & put a lot back for savings. Get the two new tires for the RV & get the rest of the generator repairs done.

I can also work the rest of the season & work towards getting the jewelry business going. Doing craft shows & perhaps taking the summer months to do some traveling & craft shows along the way. Now that appeals to me! And it also appeals to me to get away to cooler climates to beat the dreaded Texas summer heat!

I want the freedom of not being stuck at a job all year long, thus losing freedom to live life. I think that's a big part of what attracts us into the world of RVing! We want to explore, have our freedom, go where we can, when we can. But one can't do that without a budget of some sort.

I don't want a stifling life of being dragged down to having to work every single week of the year.

My injury & RV repairs over the past two years have pretty much depleated me. But I can rebuild & attempt to enjoy a good life in the meantime!

On the side, I've finally gotten all the apps I needed/wanted for my new phone. It's fun that I can read blogger on it! I can comment on some blogs, but not others through it though. It just depends on how the comments are set up. But I don't think anyone will miss my comments terribly from time to time.
I've found I can comment on most, so that's good at least. This will help when I travel or don't have access to my computer. It's amazing how phones are now like little mini computers!

Changes - new job prospect - new cell phone

Hi, Hope all is well with everyone.

I have a few changes coming up.

Although I still have issues with my foot/ankle, I asked for a work release so I can go back to work. I'm almost out of money & need to take care of myself! So I'm allowed to go back to work, with restrictions.

I have an interview tomorrow. Kind of anxious to see what the job entails. It'll be working with the school district with their after school program. Part time, which is actually ok with me for now anyhow. Anything is better than nothing. Plus this will allow me to concentrate on building a website more anyhow. I've set up more of my jewelry on my jewelry blog, but I really want to build a website for it. The blogger page gives me an idea of what I want of it though.

And I like the after school thing because that means I won't have to get up at dark thirty in the morning every morning! I'd have to get up super, super early to take care of my dogs before I went to work. This way, I can work out a better schedule for them & myself.

Also decided on a new phone! Went to Sprint today & played with it. It was FUN!!!
So this is what I decided on:

 

Click here to learn more & look at the phone if you wish.

 

I wanted a new phone that was faster, better & Android based. A slider with a physical qwerty keyboard. My phone dropped the face book app around a year ago, which sucked. Although I don't play FB often, it wasn't available to me through my current phone anymore. I could not even get to it through the web on my phone. I'd get error warnings instead. And I want to be able to read blogger from my phone too! So I think this phone will fit the bill. They are like little mini computers now. Amazing!

 

And I can add apps as I need them. My current phone isn't a full smart phone, so can't add any apps to it. Plus it just LOVES to call people randomly! Hate that. One time it called an old employer while I was in the kennel yelling at one of the dogs that was being naughty. Embarassing!!

 

Plus it would be nice to be able to get more than just 25 emails at a time & be able to go back & forth through the emails. Can't do that on my current phone. So anyhow, enough about all this - but I can't wait till it comes in! Best Buy has it for $100 less than Sprint does, so it's getting ordered through BB, but will still go into my Sprint account. Not a bad deal!

 

And it'll be nice to be networked without having to turn the computer on all the time. Especially when traveling.

 

Oh & if I get this job, I'll be able to get that generator fixed & those two new tires. At least then, I could look forward to some weekend trips!
