Day 153

Friday is finally here and perfect weekend weather-wise on the horizon. Plans are hanging on what happens at M's appointment today.

Still need to get the rest of the stuff out of the house this weekend.

This thing about Weiner and the Twitter picture. People really? Give it a rest. You know he got hacked by the right who hate his liberal views and want to bring him down. Since their guys are dropping like flies for the same kind of nonsense. It was photoshopped, and not very well. Get over it y'all and let's move on to the bigger issues.

John Edwards - Just desserts - you reap what you sow. (I looked it up and it is s-o-w) I won't forgive what you did to your brave wonderful wife. You are a sleeze and you deserve the book thrown at you.

Killer tornado in Massachussetts? The weather is getting very freaky!! We even had one in Pullman, WA last week. We do get a tornado every once in awhile but here in Northwest we don't have the heat and the humidity to generate them. This week we did enjoy the thunder and lightning we had. It's been chilly with rain, wind and dark clouds off and on but this weekend it is suppose to be in the high 70's. We still have snow on the mountains that surround us.

Day 152

Day 151

Almost quit yesterday afternoon. I was so depressed. I know I should be thankful I have a job, but, I am tired of the call center business. I do not forsee it getting any better. But I need the job, so I need to buck up and continue on.  I have not heard from Inland from the interview from last Friday. Not a good sign.

Our financial future is on track. Tasks are being completed, even with a few stumbles. I have a tendency not to take things very serious. Keeps the worry and stress at bay. Just wish the employment part would settle out. I just need benefits and a place to go each day and prosper. Maybe I'm asking too much during these times.

Cable tv and phone will be gone by June 15th. Will need to become an expert at streaming from Hulu and Netflix. And also using the rabbit ear converter for the local channels. It will be nice to add the $150 back into the budget. I think emusic will need to go too. I have had that account like forever, but...another $21 back into the budget. More back into the budget...more beads I can afford to purchase. More beads purchased...more jewelry to make to sell....
