Okay, so after the interview, I was feeling pretty good about things. I sent my follow- up info as requested. Then, they asked me a question via email, I was in the middle of responding, and got rejected before I sent it off. Not enough experience in one area. Which isn't surprising. It's surprising I was even being considered for a job with that ( Read more... )

I'm at the bookstore an hour early because Kevin drops me off in the morning, and I'm trying to resist the huge platter of brownies sitting before me. I've lost 22 pounds since Christmas (weight I put on while being unemployed) and I'm almost to my pre- unemployment weight, so I'm trying to stay away (I had half of one yesterday and we're planning ( Read more... )

Hey guys, thanks for the comments on my last entry (and to those who reached out to me elsewhere). I'm still alive, obviously. I'm looking into clinics I can go to, I need to anyway for a mouth infection I'm dealing with as well. But thanks for all your support. It means a lot.

I did have an interview at a temp agency on Monday and then grocery shopping, but besides that, I've been too tired to do much of anything. We drove all night on Saturday to get here early enough to pick Annabelle up. So yeah... I think being exhausted ( Read more... )

A quick interview update is in order. I'll get back to comments soon :)

So the company is a small Internet start-up like Shutterfly and Snapfish. These guys are photography geniuses and were the ones behind Ritz Camera, a multimillion dollar company. They offer lower prices than their competitors with more creativity and one-on-one customer service ( Read more... )

There's a reason I'm not around as much right now. I'm not just slacking, I'm just super busy.

I don't know if I mentioned it or not, but Kevin and I work out every morning now. It's a mixture of hardcore strength training, hiking and yoga (which still kicks our butt). We get up and do it first thing every morning. And we are already seeing a ( Read more... )
