I'm pretty much settled in to my new home. I've gotten a part time job at the mall. I won't make enough to survive, but I'm hoping that when school starts I'll be able to sub often enough to not need another job.

As I am typing, Roxie is standing on the computer. This is her way of telling me to get off the computer and play. I'm thirsty for orange juice. A doctor told me it would help my iron absorb better. I hope so.

I'm he-e-e-re!

The move is over. Now I just need a job.

I don't know if I will be able to get a teaching job because I'm kind of late in the game. Of course, last time I got a job, I had the interview before I filled out an application, and that was the week before school starts. We'll see. I've updated my resume and created and printed cover letters for every district in the area. Now, I have to distribute them and also try to get a part-time job to fill the space. I applied at a couple of places at the mall, but I have not heard back form them. I am going to apply at a shoe store tomorrow and stop by those other places to see if I can talk to anybody. I think that just by looking at my info, I appear to be way overqualified for sales. I've got to talk to them to let them know I'm not expecting them to pay me my old salary to work a register and field questions about clothing products.

I may have to go to a temp service. Anyone know anything about those places?

Secrets Revealed

Wellza, I'ze be all packed and ready to roll. I'm extremely excited about moving. The downside is that I'll be a bit farther from Little Rock than I am now. That means fewer visits to my brother's home. I also don't have a job, which is something that is hard to explain to the utility companies and such. I'm not worried, but everyone else is.

I had lunch with an old friend Saturday. In fact, along with another girl I grew up with, he is in fact the friend I have had the longest. We didn't talk for years when we were in college, you know, we both were doing our own thing at different schools, but when the other old friend I mentioned got married, we came across each other again.
