He snagged a job!

Jared got a customer service job in SLC today! His first day is on the 26th of September, which is still two weeks away. I just sent him out to find a fast food job until then, we'll see if he can get hired anywhere quick so were not waiting till the 26th. The job pays the same as the last which is good but it is gonna be a long commute which I don't think anyone likes. He will be riding Front Runner then Traxs to get out to where the E center is for this new job. I'm relieved that we have a starting date for employment, things could still change if he hears back from the other places he's applied but it will be okay if he doesn't hear back.

Day 2 of looking

I know it sounds unrealistic but were completely on a timetable for when Jared has to find a job. This week is the max he can go without, even then its too long. So today is day 2, he has sent his resume out to the jobs he would rather get and now he is going to several retailers and teleperformance to find out about their openings and maybe apply in person if possible. I don't know what timetable these other jobs are on, and whether they will contact him in a couple days, weeks, months or ever; so he needs to have at least a filler job until he gets a better opportunity. I know that there are plenty of people out there who are unemployed and have been so for a long time, we just can't do it, he will take a job at a fast food place before too long passes because we just have to have more income coming in. He can't apply at Lifetime because he would have to go through another temp agency and since he signed some papers with the one who got him his past job, he is legally bound to stay with that agency for some time. Its super stupid, and something I bet nobody thinks about. Send us good thoughts, and prayers please!!

we may be getting good at this

If there's anything I've learned for certain from the past 3 years is that nothing is for certain. Jared got laid off today, anyone hiring? I think that if he can't find a job soon I'll be looking for work here soon. I'll try to keep you posted of any changes, if you know of anything let us know!

I should be sleeping

This semester is a killer, I have to do math at least 4 nights a week, my interior design class wants two assignments turned in each saturday, my tbe class wants an assignment each week, my dance has me doing a chapter assignment each week and a large group project with 2 concert reports for the whole semester. And finally i haven't touched my part d class, it only wants 6 assignments done the first one is due in 2 weeks. Usually the first two weeks of class are overwhelming then everything irons itself out, but I'm thinking this wont be the case since my classes are so freaking needy! Speaking of needy... I went to buy some diapers late tonight and decieded to pick up some meat too so that my husband will come home at nights. He told me tonight that I let him down because I made waffles for dinner, and he hates waffles for dinner. It would have been funny if he hadn't been so serious about it... jerk. I think he thinks I have a secret freezer stocked full of steaks hidden somewhere in this small house and I refuse to play texas roadhouse for him. I'm having a hard time figuring out my priorities right now, I dont do what I naturally want to do, i'm still the robot maid that does all the housework and laundry, weeding and watering, child caring and feeding, dog feeding and walking. I dont feel like I have a small moment to myself or that i'm being selfish with my time even right now its almost 1a.m. and i should be sleeping. Being a mom is crazy, being a student mom with a job attached to her house is difficult at best. So my question is why can't you freaking be greatful for WAFFLES? ( I kinda wish i could just spend the day playing texas roadhouse, maybe when i'm old.)
