Been a while....

Well, I know it's been quite a while since I've made a post. I haven't been able to be on the computer much lately because I've been working. I did end up getting the job that I thought I didn't. I ended up hearing from them the next day. So tomorow will be the end of my second week. I like the job and the people that I'm working with. I just hate the drive home. There's always so much traffic. Today the owners of the company called everybody outside on the front lawn of the property. They said that the company had made 2 million in a year for the first time since 1966. I guess 1992 was when they made 1 million in a year. Then he says so we have a little something for all of you. Do you know they gave EVERYBODY a $100 bill!!! I could not believe it! There must be like 150-200 people that work there. That was awesome of them. I kind of felt like I should't take it since I've only been there 2 weeks, but my supervisor said don't worry, it's going to get very busy soon and I will earn it. Dylan is staying with my Dad during the day. So far it's been ok. We'll see if it continues.

Disappointed

Today I went to my interview for the full time packaging position that I applied for. I thought the interview went really good. Everything sounded really good...benefits after 90 days paid holidays ect. The lady who would be my supervisor was in the room for the interview too, and I thought she was really nice and we would get along. She showed me the area where I would be working at and kind of what I would be doing. Seemed to be right up my ally! I was told that they had one other person to interview this afternoon and then they would decide between the two of us. If I was getting the job then I would get a call otherwise no call no job. Well guess what, I didn't get a call. I am so bummed. I really thought this would be it for me. I'm not sure if this is a mistake on my part or not, but I was honest with them and told them that I am going through a divorce and that I knew of two court dates so far. Because they had brought up that they are pretty demanding when it comes to attendance. Which I would think any job is like that. But any how, maybe that's why they decided not to go with me. I don't want to not tell them about the divorce, because if I were to be hired and then I tell them later, they will probably feel like I deceived them. So I don't know. I still have an interview for a part time position tomorrow, but it starts at $10 an hour and it's only 15 hours a week. No benefits, and it's a 20 minute drive. So I'm not sure if it will even be worth my while. I keep thinking how God has a plan for me, but I sure wish I could have a clue as to what it is! LOL

August already

Not a whole lot has been going on with me. I've just been applying to jobs and hoping to hear from somebody. I do have two interviews this week. One tomorrow and one Wednesday. The one tomorrow is a full time position so I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for it. The down side of the whole thing is that it's probably a half hour drive away, so if the pay isn't any good, then it might not be worth my while. But we'll see. The other is a part time dispatcher position. It's also a little bit of a drive. I really need something full time so that I can get health benefits of some kind. Once the divorce is final I won't have anything. That's very scary!

Good News

Finally, I received some good news today. I went to Oakland Community College today to see f my credits were still good after five years of not taking a class, and they are all good!!! Alleluia! I was going to cry f I would have to totally start from scratch. So, I have to decide what field I want to go into. Basically right now I have all of my general ed classes out of the way. So I am thinking of possibly going for Medical Assistant, Medical Transcription, Ultrasound Tech or court reporting. I'm not sure what I want to do. The latter of the two are the highest paying right now. I have until the end of this school year to register for a class. I keep praying that the Lord will give me some sign as to what direction should go, but I haven't received anything yet. Last night Alton came by the house to see Dylan, and I once again begged and pleaded with him to go to marriage counseling just so that I can know that we've tried everything possible to save our marriage, but he still refuses. It makes me so mad that he is so willing to just give everything up like that! I guess I just have to give up and realize nothing s going to change his mind. It's just so sad!
