The wheels of beuracracy continue to turn and screw up. I got a letter from OSAP that they need copies of my immigration records. Not certain what happened there, but now I have to provide documentation to prove I was born in canada. *headdesk ( Read more... )

Today was a busy day so far.  I had physiotherapy - and got a letter from the PT that says I can push and pull up to 50 lbs, have full range of motion and my shoulder is improving and I should be capable of the demands of an RPN.  Take that, doc!  Hopefully it will be enough to counteract the doctor's letter.  I am a bit sore, though.  I did tricep ( Read more... )

Firdt - I have a part time job - I start on the 28th.  It's minimum wage cashier, but hey I'm happy to have something!  I had to go out and spend $150 on clothing requirements.  I have to wear black shoes - all of my running shoes, or shoes comfortable enough to spend a whole day on my feet are white.  I got a pair of black reebok toners for $30 ( Read more... )

You are hearby given notice that if I can get a hold of you, I plan to kick you in the balls - hard!

It's been a lousy week.  On Wednesday on my way home from a Dr appointment, I discovered that I had very little in the way of brakes in a rather sudden fashion.  It's going to cost $600 to get fixed.  My credit card will be whimpering.

The doctor's ( Read more... )

Well, life has been busy on the home front, if not on the work front.  I'm still waiting on the college - waitlisted at #3 for the nursing program.  We'll see what happens.  I have some concern about letters needed as there is currently a rotating postal strike going on.  I think if there is an offer, I'll drive to the city and collect the letter ( Read more... )

Everything has been busy lately - between physio, karate and job hunting.  Last week a lot of time was spent on tournament prep.  I made a new haori for my son and a new kimono for myself and finally put together the haori for myself that was cut out approximately 5 years ago and has been sitting in a bag in the corner of the sewing room waiting ( Read more... )

Happy Easter everyone.  I've decided to spend the holiday relaxing.  Which means quilting.  My son and Dad took off to do their thing around noon today, so I spent the afternoon quilting.  I got most of the top for the sudoku quilt my son gave me for my birthday done.  It just needs the borders added tomorrow.   I hope to do that and have another 2 ( Read more... )

I am still wading through second career paperwork.  Argh!  I bet most people give up before they get through it.  I will persevere.  OCAS screwed up and now instead of being 5th on the waiting list for the program I want, I am somewhere near 15th, which is NOT good.  I am really pissed with OCAS.  I won't have any idea on whether I might get an ( Read more... )

I feel like I am sinking.  I am attempting to attach the paperwork that is involved in the second career application.  It is driving me crazy.  There's a lot of paperwork and a lot of things that have to be done that cost $$$ that I don't have, but if I don't do them I can't apply, etc.  Some of it is extremely stupid.  I feel like I spinning my ( Read more... )
