A year later....now

The last post dates Sept 7th, but in fact it was more like October 2009. It is now September 2010. Time has drifted by...or maybe more like ZOOMED by. Yes, i am free from PS, but now as i'm on the hunt for a job that pays more than 12/hr, PS seems like a dream at 18/hr and 3 day weekends. But alas, reading over the older posts, I remember how crazy i went. The blog has served its purpose.
Anyways, as i said, i'm on the job hunt. I went to school, got my certificate in Medical Lab Assistant. It was good.. the 6 months went fairly quickly and getting a needle everyday was interesting. Alas, there are no jobs right now. Out of 24 students, about 5 got jobs. Ouch. I did my practicum at Bio lab is Chilliwack but didn't really enjoy that. I then did another 2 weeks at the abbotsford hospital which was better, and I even got an interview at the end, but nothing became of it. So, i then started looking for anything else and got a part time job at a Physio/massage clinic. I am there currently, but have given them till october to replace me. My husband booked Vegas for Oct 2 and they wouldn't give it off, so i figured i needed a full time job anyways, and we didn't want to throw the trip out the window, so i gave them notice. I've sent out numerous applications, but am still waiting to hear back from anyone. It doesn't help that most of them, i sent the wrong coverletter :o Oops. so i'm starting from scratch. I have just over half a month to get something!
Sunday I felt lead to volunteer at the Salvation Army...i sent my resume to see if they had any full time jobs there, otherwise to send me a list of what needs they have for volunteers. It might be hard if i work full time again though. Anyways, we'll see.

I can't believe its almost been a year since i've written. How time flies.

anyways, I'm enjoying my popcorn and watching 4 weddings and a funeral. Hugh Grant is so young. We've been watching movies from the 90's lately...they are so good, can' beat them.
