Hey look! I'm *actually* posting something!
Ok, so I don't usually have time to blog about my life, and with the last 3 of 6 tests this week left, I suppose I really don't even have the time now. But I need your help, if you can offer any!
As some may have known, my dad lost his job in August (boo), but he just started a new one this week (yay!). However, mom just lost her job last Thursday (mega-boo). Her bosses are the biggest jerks ever, but that's beside the point. She needs a job soon, and it needs to pay better than unemployment at the very least, which is equivalent to an $8/hour full time job. Something more in the realm of $14 would be better, as that's what she was making before, and dad had to take less money for his new job than he was making at his old one. She has worked for Hallmark for the past 14 years, 12 or 13 of which as the store manager. She was working at Christine's Hallmark in Cottleville for the past 3 1/2 years, and Van's Hallmark in Wentzville for the remainder of the hallmark time. She spent about 6 or 7 years baby-sitting multiple children, and for a few years just before I was born worked as a bank teller. She only has a high school diploma, no college experience. Any suggestions for employment anyone has would be wonderful, and feel free to pass this info along to any others you think might have some leads.
To quickly summarize life: Gradschool is awesome, but oh-so-busy! Brian's B-day is coming up and, as usual, I have no idea what to get him (help?). I voted for the first time yesterday, and I voted for Obama, mainly because he most supported chiropractic ideals and was the only candidate to take time to respond to a survey from the American Chiropractor's Association (though I'm sure it was just an intern, but still...) concerning his plans for healthcare and how they relate to chiropractic thinking and goals. Two days after I announced my engagement, my sister decided she was engaged as well ^_~. Coldfire trilogy is amazing. Halloween was awesome!
