Press both buttons

Greetings once again!  Today was wake up early Tuesday.  It wasn’t the trash people this time it was the cats.  I found out that someone got sick over night and threw up in bed but unfortunately I found that out the hard way when my foot touched it as I was waking up.  ICK!  Time to do laundry again!

Fed the children, had some breakfast myself and I was really, really bored.  It was just turning 7 by now and I grabbed the iPhone but not too much e-mail.  Nothing on TV and I had viewed everything on my TiVo so back to being bored.  Plus my cable provider has decided that this week it’s time to change the channel line up so you have no idea where anything is anymore.  That should all straighten out in a day or so.  I wound up going back to bed, took a while but I fell asleep.

Got woken up again around 11ish by my partner.  He was trying to use the meat slicer to cut up a ham we got but he couldn’t get the thing to turn on.  He said the motor won’t even run.  I asked him if he had it plugged in.  He said yeah.  This thing has only been used like 3 times since we had it and I knew it wasn’t broken.  So I got up and looked at it.  Turns out he was pushing the safety button instead of the ON button.  You have to press both at the same time, designed that way so you don’t chop off a finger.  Once we solved that he got to cutting the ham.  More dishes for me to do!

I had a voice mail message waiting and got it.  Another company wanting to talk to me about a job.  Great!  So I called them back, got voice mail and left a message.  Now I am back to waiting to hear from them.  By now it’s time to get ready for my phone interview.  I had some time and decided that I had nothing to loose by calling the Charity.  So I did, even though my instincts told me not to.  I got voice mail as I expected and left a message.  I pretty well think they have someone else in mind for the job.  So if I hear back from them it will totally surprise me.

My phone interview today went really well.  The guy liked me and I of course liked the prospect of having a decent job.  However, they start with the phone interview, then progress to an in person interview in about 2 weeks.  Then if they really like you, a 2nd in person interview with a committee of people and then the final offer.  They want to move quickly but at the same time they move slow for a reason.  It is about finding a quality person and a good fit for the job.  That the person likes the job as well.  Great, that won’t exactly pay my bills but okay.  So I should be getting a call back, or so I was told.

Got another phone interview tomorrow this one is early in the morning so I will have to rise a bit earlier than normal.  That one will be my 2nd phone interview and if they like me they will call me in for an in person interview.

Heard from my attorney’s office today.  Were all set for Thursday morning, I will be signing my petition and it should be filed hopefully by the afternoon.  Glad this is finally moving forward.  My only worry is the future and what it holds for me.

Lawn Boy showed up in the middle of the day and cut the grass.  I was surprised because he wasn’t due here until Thursday.  So while I was near my computer I got a check sent out to him.  Love bill pay through my bank, totally free and they pay for the cost of the check and the postage to get it there. 

We made it to the grocery store and bought some things that we shouldn’t have but my partner encouraged me to stock up.  Of course after we left he forgot something and so did I.  So we get to make another trip back, fun!  Made it to the pet food store and the children are happy now that more food is in the house.  I’m being nagged right now to feed them.  Ugh!

Talked with my brother.  Mom still in the hospital.  They took out the NG tube and gave her solid food.  She is keeping everything down.  They hope that tomorrow she will have a BM and if so they will discharge her.  My brother isn’t going to 2nd shift tomorrow after all.

Pretty well a wrap on Tuesday.  I’ve got my evening chores and then it will be time for bed.  On Sunday I was optimistic that I may very well have a job this week but now I think it will be a bit.  Of course if something comes my way I will jump at it.  Take care and I will talk with you peeps later!
