is going ok. So I started my first day in a snow storm. :o) Great start I would say. hahaha So far things are ok. I am still training on their system......that they just got a few months ago. *rolling eyes* this might be the blind leading the blind. :P Anyways........I will be happier once I get into my office and can get situated.

It turns out that they are going to be letting someone go....and I will be replacing her. So they want to wait just a bit before they do that. Hmmmmm we will see how this goes.

Ok, I had a second interview with this title company. They really want me bad....lol evidently my references really pimped me out. So the offer is that I will be a roaming closer. (meaning I will go to different offices and do closings) my hub office will be in St. Charles and I will be the manager there as well, plus I will do marketing for my area.....which is North county......and once the market gets back on its feet and going again I will open an office near my home. :o) YaY Oh yeah and they are giving me the salary I asked for.... plus, a cell phone and milage.....not sure how all that works but WoW. I am excited but I am also kinda reserved about it too. Not sure why. I suppose maybe I am a gotta see it to believe it kinda person or maybe because I have to bring clients to the table and well......I have them but the market really sucks still....

I know I can do this I really can.

I have so many emotions flowing right now Im not sure what to feel.



Facts.......

Got a job

Got a nice raise

Can get caught up on bills........I hope and pray

Need to get things in order for the boys

they will need some one in the mornings and evenings.....

I am starting the end of this month.

I am good at what I do

I can / will make this happen.

Ok so my first interview went unbelievably fantastic!!!!

I interviewed with the owner and his hr manager.

The owner came in and laid out what he was wanting from me........

to come to work for him in the main office till the market turns and then he wants me to open an office in my area....manage it and market it......omg! I was so excited!.

I told him that I have broad enough shoulders to make all that happen. Then I was talkign to the hr manager and told her that I have no problem selling myself to my clients......but I need to be able to sell the company.

YEah, I got right in there and told her what I need and expect from the company to provide the best service to my clients and be willing to work with them. Hee hee......it was a great meeting.........

there was something that was said that I had forgotten about.....ooops

I have a no compete clause with my last employer.........So I need to get a release from them. Which shouldn't be a problem since they laid me off they broke the contract.......so I should be free to work anywhere in my industry........

So I have a call into my prior manager and am just waiting for a call back.

Ok RedQueen.....maybe cross your toes xoxo





Oh yeah ...........also......this afternoon.....I got another call from another company and have an interview set up for tomorrow......

so I haven't been out of the house in 2 days. And I mean that literaly. I even had my son bring the mail in today. I have been just sitting here trying to find a freaking job. I can't believe how quick the day goes by when you are filling out applications online.....or trying to figure out how the hell to navigate through a website. ugh





I am trying so hard to fight off the depression that I can feel creeping up on my heels. I have two boys to stay perky for and whew.......this weather and life right now......its really trying me.

I could easily crawl into bed and bury my face under the covers and stay there........

Grrrrr........

I really am trying to stay positive :) see smiling gritting my teeth, but nothing...... :(



My boys go from one extreme to the next. They are the best guys in the world.......as long as they aren't together.

Its so hard. I share them with their dad. they go back and forth all week and switch weekends. I dont think there are any rules over there except to leave him alone so he can sleep....wtfe! but I keep that to myself. I have family and friends say how out of control they are at times and then they say I am a great mom and doing the best that I can. WTF does that mean?! I feel like such a failure as a mom. DAmn! I don't know what their dad says about me but I feel like he underminds everything I try to do. I am thinking once I get back to work and $$$ flowing I am going to ask for full custody of the boys. He can see them every other weekend and on Thursdays (scout night)......this way they don't interrupt his rest for one. I think if they were in one home all week with rules and chores things would smooth out for them.....and me......us.



Ok and now for my PawPaw. I talked to my Gma tonight. She says Gpa is kinda kicked the pnomonia, but there is still tons of fluid on / in his lungs and they don't know where its coming from. They are not letting him out till they find out....or till he is stable . I had this horrible feeling that he won't be coming out this time. God I love him so much.......

My Gma didn't sound very well herself. She is going to the doctor tomorrow........they are almost certain she has pnomonia. So there is a good chance that she will be in a room close to Gpa by tomorrow night.

Evidently the strain of pnomina that Gpa had is extreamly contagious and of course she was sleeping in the same bed and was taking care of him.........so the dr. appt tomorrow is more of a formality.

I have lots to fill you in on........so sit back and grab a drink....or two.



I am still out of work. Sigh......I am trying to stay positive but it sure is wearing on me. This is the longest I have ever been out of work since I was 14yrs old. :o( I see hundreds of jobs online but, nothing that I qualify for or......nothing that will pay the bills. Its starting to look like I need to take two full time jobs to make almost what I need to cover the bills. I am praying that something will come around the first of this year. All I hear is more bad news on the work front for more and more people. Pretty soon there won't be anyone working.



Let's see.....my sister asked if her and her boyfriend and their cat could move into my basement. At one time I had offered to her a place to go, but that has been a few years ago. Things have changed.

I had to tell her no. It was very hard. But, they both smoke cigs and pot and he drinks every day. I don't allow smoking in my house. I have two little boys and they don't need to be around any of that crap. I don't mind that they smoke and drink......I just don't want it in my house. Not to meantion that I have several law enforcement friends that would have to turn them in. She was so angry with me for a little bit. and it was so hard to turn her away. But, by thanksgiving I think she was ok with it all and understood.

Moving on.......

My grandfather is in both worlds at this moment I think. I am so glad that we have had him for longer than we were suppose to. He is so strong but so tired too. He is in the hospital right now with pnomonia (sp) I can never spell that word..lol. Hopefully he will come home this week some time. It will be a week in there come tomorrow. They drained somewhere around 2 gallons of liquid off his lungs. Now they are doing more test......for what I don't know. I do know that he has stopped his treatments. He has gotten to the point that he sleeps nearly all the time and barely eats. I know he is so beyond ready to go. I just love him so.

My boys are doing great. They are on winter break and go back tomorrow...YaY! I have had no sense of days sense they have been home on break. I think they are ready for school too.



My parents are not doing so hot right now. They both are off and on ill for one. They seem to be driving each other insane too. Which is bothering me a bit. It makes me worry about letting them watch the boys. They have a tendancy to yell at the kids more when they are crabby with each other. Basically putting the boys in the middle. The boys are good troopers but still they don't need that crap. I am trying to figure out what I can do with the boys once I go back to work and they are off school. That is something stressing me too.



And then I have the boys not wanting to be at their dads too much. Which I thought I would be excited for the day they decided they wanted to live with me and not go back and forth. But, I am kinda sad. I think they need to spend time with him even if he doesn't really do anything with them. But, I don't know what to do with that situation right now........just one more thing on my plate

I would love to just have them full time and he can see them everyother weekend......something to thing on



Hummmm just writing this has made my head hurt and I haven't even shared too much of whats going on.



I think I will take a break for a minute or so.....

stay tuned.......

there is plenty more to share :(
