You ever have one of those months where nothing seems to work out? They're frustrating as hell.
-The owners of Cildara (where I board Flash) Are being assholes. They basically decided that I wasnt doing enough time at the barn and want me to work for like 5 bucks an hour. Ummm no. As it is Im barely getting minimum wage for the work I do there.
-Trying hard as hell to find a home for Flash. Of course the shitty economy isnt helping at all. I dont think I could advertise in any more places. And I've only gotten two replies one of which was a 16 year old. UMM... NO. The other hasnt sent me anything back yet.
-The working for the BF thing isnt really working out so great. Mainly I was doing 12 hour days including my other job and I snapped. So now money is a bit tight. Think I need to pick up some hours at Homesense again. Which is fine at least I have a back up plan.
-The last of the BF's original dogs died of heart failure most likely. Thats 3 in one year. O.O! Not to mention all of the chickens that have been eaten or burninated. Im starting to wonder if this an omen. :(
-The stallion is not sound. :( So it looks like Im not going to have a horse to ride for this season. I mean sure I can play around with the BF's horses.... but its just not the same as having your own project. But a hell atleast Im used to it.
-Work is slowing down at the groomers. Which doesnt help with the money situation. I like the job buts its kind of annoying how we can be doing 8+ hour days and then go to basically nothing with in a few days.
Mainly the only thing that has been going well is Neo. Im so proud of him and everyone loves him. He's the star of our agility class (which Im not too sure how Im going to pay for. >.<;) he is going to be such an awesome agility dog. He's fast, smart and LOVES it. In show handling we do alright. Del and the other instructor both love him. Though we're both a little incompitent, who would have thought that running around in a circle and standing in a line was so involved!
-Oh yeah. I missed obiedence registration for the ump'teinth time. >.<;
*head desk* This is really getting annoying. Im so done with Jan. Feb, has to be better.
Im thinking of taking a Web Design degree in Vancouver. About 2 years, the salary isnt bad at around 30$ an hour. I like doing it. And OMG the Art Institute guys are assholes. First of all their website sucks, I spent over half an hour trying to get information on the course I wanted to take. Couldnt find a curriculum or tuition fees. The only thing I did find was a "fill out this form and well send you more info" accompanied with a small paragraph outlining the course. So I figured, alright they mail you shit. Did that, get a call from some bitchy asian. Who was really more insulting then anything. NO I DONT HAVE FUCKING PORTFOLIO, I want to take your web design course! IM NOT A FREAKING ARTIST. Are you going to ask the culinary arts person if they have a portfolio?! Oh and they dont mail things. Because their too cheap, even though they want you to spend anywhere from 20-40 grand at their school. When I told her that her website was shitty she wasnt too happy with me. She wanted me to come to their information session in Vancouver "So I could see how the school worked". Soooo let me get this strait.... you want me to spend money to go over there..... but yet your too cheap to mail me some information? UMMmmmm NO. So Im gussing that they rock the art scene but not so great with the digital part? Or maybe I just got a bitchy lady, but Im not going there because of it.
Maybe BCIT or UBC, I havent really looked at SFU yet..... but man I NEED to do something! I figure 2 years, not so bad. I can still go and ride somewhere after. And maybe make some better cash.
