Where I’ve Been

Friday, October 26th 2007

I bet you have been wondering where I have been. I have not been here or to your place to visit (

Since school started I have been working on a blog for them. It has taken much more time than I have anticpated. And, I had to do a newsletter as well. It is so hard to get people to understand deadlines.

My A&P class is taking more time than I anticpated. But so far so good.

We are moving the store. That is taking more of my husband’s time than mine, but I am helping on the weekends. It will save us mucho dollars!

I may have mentioned, once or twice, that our health insurance increased by 30%. We decided to keep the insurance for our employees but we are terminating the policy for ourselves. We just cannot do over 14,000 a year for insurance. Craziness, I tell you. We may do a short term policy that will cover us if the worst happens. But hopefully this will happen:

Me getting hired by a company I interviewed with on Wed. It is the funniest thing. I applied, online, on Monday. Got a call Tuesday and went to see her Weds. I had all kinds of answers ready for questions that might come up. None of them did. We talked more about the amazing benefits the company has to offer than anything else. Nothing about my skills etc… I think she just wanted to see if I was real or not. I had applied for a part time job but she brought up a full time job that is becoming available. I would really like the full time job a lot more than the part time job. It was the oddest interview I have ever had. I believe I will be offered a job (crossing fingers here) and then I won’t have the health insurance problem to obsess over any longer.

I still have to do my work here. Not sure how two full time jobs will work out. But, I am willing to do it right now. It would be wonderful to take both salaries and really knock down the debt the business has burdened us with. And, if the winter is slow and we cannot pay ourselves, again, at least we can have this. I cannnot go another winter with little or no income.

Just a few things going on in my life…

OMG! Two full-time jobs? Did you leave time for eating, sleeping, and showering? Chica, you have to be careful and take of yourself, you know. *hugs*

(hugs!) We have our own business too and the insurance rates are ridiculous! We went to a Health Savings Account option and that really cut things down, but there are still the average 27% yearly increase. -( Good luck on the job!!!!! I’ll pray for snow FOR YOU, but NOT FOR ME.

I’d say that’s enough to keep a person on the edge of craziness.

Seriously - where is the time going? Each day gets shorter, and ten minutes to spare seems to be increasingly difficult to find.

Best of luck on the job interview, I hope this winter is easier on you guys, as well!!
