Fashion Forward

While running some errands after work I stopped at a CVS and noticed a girl with a great handbag. I couldn't tell what designer or brand it was but I liked the style and size. Actually her entire outfit was quite fashionable. I wasn't able to get a photo from head to toe but her shoes were cute too.  She's wearing a plum velvet blazer, gray sweater, skinny jeans and black flats. Classic yet fashionable.

Discouraged but Determined

I've been looking for a job for sometime now, I have not been successful in my search. I trying to keep my chin up and stay positive, and for the most part I feel positive. I just get so frustrated! Especially in this state, it seems that if you don't know someone you have no chance of even getting an interview. All I want is find a good job and do good work.

Inappropriate Crushes

What's good this dreary Saturday? The forecast calls for a rain ALL day, so I'll will remain indoors and will continue my home cleaning and organization. I will also be watching a couple of college football games and eating Chinese take out. Don't be jealous darlings.

I'm particularly interested in the Florida Gator and S Carolina Gamecocks game in the late afternoon. While Tim Tebow is the superstar of the Gators, my favorite boy is Riley Cooper the Gators receiver. He is my inappropriate crush. Inappropriate because he is only 22 and I am over 22.Sunday morning I will be at a mandatory (paid) work meeting. Kinda stinks as I will be missing Sunday service. Its a three hour meeting, hopefully there will be provisions.

The Patriots will be in Indianapolis this weekend to play those undefeated Colts. I really dislike the Colts, as much as I adore and admire their former coach Dungy I loathe this team. To be fair, I loathe all teams and wish them all misfortune. Its not reasonable or rational but its how I've always been. Last season a game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Cincinnati Bengals resulted in a tie of 13-13. If every NFL game ended in that manner it would warm the cockles of my heart.

Anywhoo. The Patriots game is a Sundaynighter on NBC, so I'll be bracing myself through Keith Oberman and Dan Patricks tag team ramblings. And I actually like them both, but they are a little too cute on the Sunday Night pre-game. Not fun to watch, almost uncomfortable actually.

So I had an interview yesterday morning, it was set up by one of my many temp agencies. I met with a lovely woman, and the actual interview interview took all of 20 minutes. We'll see what happens, I really need a full time job and know that I could do great work for this company. Thankfully I've been getting a lot of hours at my part time job. I actually worked a 10 hour shift yesterday, I was on my feet for 10 hours! Someone called out and my manager asked if I'd be willing to stay. I initially said no because I wasn't feeling all that great. My manager tells me that I would have a break and that I wouldn't have to stay the entire night. Even with this going on I am encoureage by my friends. Last night my friend treated me a movie, we went to see A Christmas Carol with Jim Carrey at IMAX. It was so good, a was a true 3-D with big ole glasses. I needed the encouragement and am grateful for generous friends. Peace

Keep Your Feet on the Ground...

My temporary job assignment ended and I am now without a full time work. Thankfully I do have a part time job where I can pick up some hours so I will not go hungry. Though it's very unsettling I believe that it will all turn out well (prayers to God, fingers crossed). I told one of my girlfriends about the job ending and she asked "Isn't that the job you had to travel an hour to get to?" I say yes, she says "Praise God, don't sweat that." It immediately helped me feel better! While I didn't hate the job it was wrecking me. I would wake up at 5:15 in the morning to get to my job for 7:30 and I deal with quite possibly one of the worst managers in all of the United States of America.

While working there i was sick at least three times, the last time I fairly certain it was the H1N1 virus. Seriously. My hope and prayer is that I will not continue to toil in miserable temporary jobs. But I know I'll have to do it for a little while longer to get where I want to. Like Casey Kasem says..."Keep Your Feet on the Ground, And Keep Reaching for the Stars."
