ho hum.
Wow, I sure have been neglecting my journal lately.
A few things have happened since I last updated. Todd and Crystal moved out of their house yesterday, so Tom and Peter are there alone until the start of June. They've found an apartment here in Burlington, so that's a lot of stress off their shoulders. Tom's still going to nigh school twice a week, and I'm still working five days a week.
Things are going pretty well at the store, but I recently found out that they fired a guy at my Dad's work where I worked for a month or so, and had I still been there, I would probably be making $15 an hour now. That's nearly double what I'm making at Solutions, which is very frustrating. I got a new cell phone so now I'm paying that bill monthly, and my rent has started up again now that I'm working full time. But according to my employee handbook we don't get a chance to get a raise until we've been with the company a year, and if that's the case, I probably won't be working there long. $8.75 an hour is enough for me to live off of, but I certainly won't be able to save very much unless I'm making more money than I am now.
Anyways. Other than that, life is fine. My room is certainly more organized than it's ever been. But I have to say, for a store that sells organizational products, the company is not very organized.
At least summer is on it's way!
