On the up side of life I have paying work until mid-April - on the down side, we have nothing to do. Of course Aunt Ing is taking full advantage, Monday with thunder storms, crawling traffic and a body too tired to care about anything, I went back to sleep for an hour. I got up and emailed the boss and said I was working from home today due to the interview - yeah that is the reason.
So - I dealt with home issues, and then dressed and headed out the door... only to discover that I had forgotten my wallet - had to turn around get home, get that, pick up Bubba's shirts - (I didn't leave the slip for him Saturday) then started in one direction - turned around and went another direction - then realized the stupid gps on the phone thought the road I was on was done, it's not - so I had to weave my way around the back roads then got back on major highways all the while thinking I couldn't be late.
Thankfully I wasn't, it was a great conversation, got dinner out of the deal and a promise to keep in touch. No, no firm offer but I felt things were left on a positive note and he would try and find a place for me. I was honest in what I wanted, hey I figure if I'm leaving 16 years seniority I want a path and a new path instead of the rut I've dug in my current career. Of course parts of me like this rut, I come and go as I please and know the system. Learning a new system will require work - but its always nice to work at something new... a challenge as they say...
And I've wandered off into ramble land haven't I? We will see, heck the man emailed me at 7:00 AM the next morning. Yeesh - I should probably check on that those morning type people. Eek...
Talked to Nana on my way home, it was nice we blathered about this that and the other - work, home and the idiots that are the girl's group "adults". But again that is in the past and we have moved on!! Tuesday I actually went into work - there were 5 of us left there - we sat in the small eatery in the building for lunch talking of resumes, interviews and the rest - fun group isn't it? I then headed out for a massage - a hot stone massage, I nodded off several times I was jello-d mush by the time he was done with me... oh so very very nice. I got home took out my contacts as they were gritty - the sleep thing, and found that I have a big new space in my back yard! They had come and removed the fallen tree in our back yard. I fear we have misplaced a number of bird families and possibly the bunnies. There are plenty of other places the bunnies can go - not like they are worried about being in my yard... Shelby doesn't chase them and Violet runs at a leisurely pace so they don't have to put a lot of effort into getting away.
I made dinner it was salads. Hey I had to chop slice, cook eggs and chicken and toss dressing on it all. I ate early - Bubba ate later. I was sound asleep before 9:30 PM last night.
Today - again working from home, boss told me to - he said gas is too much money for all that. I agreed, so I slept in a bit, got moving, and now sit here wondering how to fill the hours without that guilty nagging feeling I should be doing more - but not real sure about what I can be doing. And round and round we go. I researched my interview today, need to deal with directions, and debate wardrobe. I am also hoping that the nasty weather will hold off until I get home... What am I going to serve Bubba for dinner - for some reason I'm in the mood for Mexican... I think it's going to be tacos. Just a mood thing I guess.
Bubba has been quite chipper these days no moaning about my being gone all weekend, so crack about this that and the other - he was happy with dinner, accepted the fact Monday night he had to get his own dinner as my interview included dinner. I'm waiting with what comes next. His parents will be coming through Saturday for lunch, I have nothing planned this weekend, Brother and his family will be invading next weekend... I guess it isn't fair to Bubba but I am waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Who knows! I do have to do some laundry so he's got undergarments to wear for the rest of the week - poor baby. Actually should have done that a few hours ago - so I'll do a load before I leave and finish up when I get home. Its how I make my life work when I ignore something... LOL yeah I am a dork.
I will post how THIS interview went and I've got to goose the company folks to see what is happening there... so tired of this already...
Is it any wonder I've got (clap clap) too much time on my hands.... (STYX fans will remember that one) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XcKBmdfpWs
(it was the late 70's early 80's forgive me... )
