Earning the Big Ones

So today was day two of my temporary four day job at Allen Samuels. That means I have put in 16 hours of filing and sorting and folder making. My head hurts and I can see numbers swimming before my eyes, whether they are opened or close.

I'll be getting paid for the four days at the end of this week. That's some money...hopefully enough to pay my credit card bill.

On Monday, July 17th, I start my try out position at Datex, a printing company that is looking to hire a bilingual customer service person for the accounting office. I have a try out period of several days before they make the decision to keep me. That means a possible full time, Monday to Friday, 8AM to 5PM job where I will be earning $8.00 an hour. I am definitley praying to get this job. The only other one that will be better is the employment counselor position at Jack of All Trades but they are still interviewing people...or so I've been told.

So how has life been, you're wondering? Well, I've been thinking much more about a certain someone than I usually do. I've gotten the chance to talk to my Shortcake which was awesome. I miss that girl. I've realized that I am still holding back from any type of risk that involves some kind of personal investment. I realized I am not ready to take that step.

I've been writing a story that is complete in my head yet is still in progress over the computer. I've decided that if I finish this story, I definitely have the makings for a future author with best seller books.

I've been working on my affirmation quilt. I finally finished hemming the sides of the writing side so that it wouldn't unravel and am still putting squares together for the other side...all by hand.

I have no yarn which is driving me crazy and no canvas to paint, which is equally driving me crazy. No cable on my television is also driving me crazy and I absolutely hate my stupid airbed.

Well, that's enough complaining. Next time around, I'll try to post something more uplifting and positive, like the short story that is developing in my head. Looking forward to sharing that with y'all.
