So here's the scoop...

I've been sub-teaching like a fiend (damn 5:30am phone calls) AND I managed to get a part-time job. I'll be spending my evenings and weekends at Holcomb's in the mall. Can we say teacher Mecca?I'm sure I'll get a discount but I do have a wedding to pay for and it's a little more important than teacher related items. I'm also applying for a teaching (most likely sub-job) in another local district so that would be three paychecks coming in. How many hours can a human being work in a given week? I guess I'll find out soon enough.
~In related news, Killian has a job interview this Friday at noon. Keep your fingers crossed everyone :)
~In unrelated news, there's a new super keen blog everyone should check out written by an awesome friend of mine Phoenix Rising

Someone Find My Man a JOB !!!

Haven't posted in a while cuz I've been busy. I've actually worked for 3 days (2 in a row) !!! Amazing ain't it? Killian and I have been busy planning wedding stuff. We now have a church and a reception hall which are the two major things we needed. Now we just have to worry about a dj, cake, flowers, dresses for me and the girls, tuxes for the boys, his ring... the list just does not end.
~A bit of sad news, as of this past week, Killian is unemployed. The company laid off about 13 people due to the whole economy thing. I guess the company isn't doing too well these days and needed to downsize. Killian's a little down but he's optimistic about finding another job somewhere. This does however put a damper on our grand wedding plans. Things are going to be scaled down and not as "fancy" as they could be. I think it's all good cuz I'm kind of a "plain jane" myself. The only part that sucks is that we won't be able to afford a honeymoon. I've always wanted to go somewhere, ANYWHERE for my honeymoon. We have 1 year 4 months, and 17 days until the wedding so we'll see.
~That's all that's new. Everyone's up to date on my life.

Can We Say J-O-B?

I'm in the middle of the best sleep I've had in ages when the phone rings at 9:20 this morning. Miracle of God, the district actually needed my services and yet another miracle, it was in the school in which I did my student teaching. How lucky could I get? One of the second grade teachers had to leave because her father-in-law passed away. I feel horrible for her and her family, but hey, I got the job! I taught 20 second graders from 10am-3:10pm and I loved every minute of it. The kids were well behaved and the lesson plans were clear and easy to follow. Everything went well and above all, I was happy. The spiffy thing is that I'm going back all day tomorrow!!! How can I stand working for 2 days in a row? Dear lord, I'm actually going to get a paycheck!!! Ok, it's gonna be little, but it's still money. This gives me hope, lifts my spirits, makes me smile, I'm actually being POSITIVE about something. Ok, I'm not used to being this positive. I think I need to go lie down.

~Still broke as hell. So I've decided that no company will hire me because I'm over qualified. I can't even get a job at Target dammit!Damn that college diploma to hell.
~The good news is that I don't have TB. Not that I thought I did, but I had to have the test and it all came out good (I knew it would). I just like the fact that I actually passed a test and didn't have to study.
~Stressing out over wedding stuff that isn't really important now like photographers, flowers, dresses, and other stuff. I don't know if my ulcer will make it to next June.

I'm Back

Ok, so I'm over the whole revenge thing. Killian asked me why I was wasting so much energy on someone so insignificant. I do so agree, I mean why should I pay so much attention to something so stupid. Moving on... So I'm all about finding a job now. At this point I'm poor and I'll do just about anything for a buck. I've been applying to just about every store in the local mall. If I don't get a job in the mall I fear I may be stuck working at Target. That store will hire anyone who walks in the door. I hope I don't have to stoop to that. I'd kinda like to work some place respectable. Well isn't that an odd thing to say coming from someone who's applying at Fredrick's of Hollywood? They probably won't hire me though cuz I don' t look like an underwear model. Ah, the trials and tribulations of the job hunter... to be continued.
