Not much in the way of movies. My niece is coming to spend the afternoon and night with us and I thought it would be fun to go out and have some girl fun. Dinner, movie...shopping. :P It must be the lull before all the new releases come out in May. I am not going to take 2 ten year olds to see Ashton Kutcher strut around in his underwear, playing the dumb guy. In either of his movies. Perhaps, Hitchhiker would be ok...not sure I want to lay down hard earned money for that, however.
Speaking of money, I turned in the application yesterday. This thing looked like a book. Between my resume, cover and references and their application, I needed a binder to hold it all together. My resume is actually very compact, straight and to the point, a one pager..but their application wanted more information than I have ever given. Not sure how they are going to feel about that hang nail on my big toe I had a few years back...
The job sounds awesome though. And as a single parent, would be just what the Dr. ordered. Medical benefits. I can't tell you how much I have spent on Dr. bills alone. I have no insurance. And the sperm donor doesn't do jack to help with any of it. It is fine, I can do it on my own (mostly) but it would be nice to feel some pressure relief where that is concerned.
I have often thought of going back to college. I did the 2 year thing when I was younger. But most employers could care unless it is a bonafide 4 year degree. So sue me, I had to work full time and support my folks. Family was a priority. I have tried to get some help going back to college. Their answer to me? I have too many skills to warrant getting a better education. Basically, I wasn't dumb enough. Right...it is fine. I am still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up anyway. Perhaps one day. When Rachel is grown and on her own, I can get that Journalism degree or whatever I decide at the time. Right now, she needs me around. Working full time and going to school full time would not afford her that. And she is my priority.
The sun is shining today and it looks like some flip flops are in order....
Enjoy yours...
