Ray starts his new job in Texas on the 14th. It’s funny how some things take so long to get done and then the next thing you know, the big day is right here in front of you.
I’m having our garage sale on the 12th. I'll spend the next couple of weeks getting everything ready for that. Look forward to getting rid of junk.

Employment update
Ray's interview went well and he is being offered the job. There is a packet on it's way with the salary they are offering and it will now depend on that. So we will see.

I've almost made it...
...through this week of work. Only one more day left. It's been pretty grueling because, thanks to Spring Break, I haven't had the excuse to leave work to pick up my kids from school which helped to make the afternoon go by faster. Yea for Wednesday. It's my favorite work day.
I have laundry to do and things to straighten around the house, but I think Cody and I will go for a walk instead. He keeps me company. He'll grow out of wanting to do this one day so I better grab him and hold on while I can.

Ray has an interview...
this evening with a manager from the Midland, Texas based company known as Weatherford. They will be dining in one of Tulsa's finest restaurants. That's something that Ray tossed my way, thinking I would be jealous. I'm not impressed with that sort of thing because I'd rather eat at Olive Garden.
And so this dance begins again. More later.

Maybe Not EXACT Words
My boss at work must really wonder some days why he hired me. I've made him laugh just a couple of times and yesterday was one of those times. But he was probably laughing AT me.
I had to interview our client to ask him questions that were submitted by an Attorney for the other side. Then type in the answers to this Interrogatory and I got stumped on how to spell a word. That made me wonder if we should really answer what the client's response was word for word or make it sound more professional. So I went back to my boss's office to ask him.
"I'm typing this Interrogatory and I need to know if you want me to use the client's exact words or if I should re-word it to make it sound more professional."
"Exact words are fine."
"Then I need to know how to spell wuss"

Is it time to go back already?
School is still out for the kids and that makes it a little bit difficult to go back to work today. But back to work, I must go. At least I'm going to attempt it. If the roads give me too much trouble, then I'm coming back home and crawling under a blanket.
Mojo tried to kill himself yesterday and out of all the ways to take yourself out, he chose electrocution. He wasn't successful, thank goodness and I bet he won't be playing with the vacuum cleaner cord anytime soon.

Hoping for better days
Yesterday was one of the most boring days at work. Probably didn't help that I still consider myself to be sick and just wanted to be home watching tv from my bed. I don't even think he needs anyone to work on Wednesdays but here I go to another day that promises boredom. A person can only handle so much scanning and shredding before the suicidal thoughts start to emerge. Think of the money he would save by not having to pay me for that day every week. I've thought of it many times. Maybe things won't be so bad today. Or didn't I say that yesterday?

I'm outta here
No school again today for the kids. I'll be going to work. I think I'm actually looking forward to it a little bit. I won't have to be the referee today or have arguments with a six grader. Bliss.

All work and no play
First off.. our soccer team lost but it wasn't as horrible as I imagined. The team didn't play well and when that happens, it's hard to want them to win. So they didn't deserve it and that's the way it goes. The score was 2-1 so it was a close game.
Leslie called me last week about a job that might be coming available at a lawyer's office. Turns out that he's not ready to fire his incompetent secretary even though his wife would like to see it happen so that someone can get into that office and get it organized. So maybe someday down the road this employment possiblity will come up again and I'll be more mentally prepared to take something full time. For now, I'm employed very part time, which I'm comfortable with.
Laundry is priority today. I've managed to ignore it the last couple of days so there is plenty to catch up on. I'll try to fit in some work and HGTV on the side. I'd like to get in some exercise, tanning and shopping but since there are only 24 hours in a day, that's unlikely. And now, the clothes dryer beckons me.
