Day turned out a tad bit better once I cleared my desk. Until tomorrow that is. It all starts over tomorrow.
I cooked dinner. We had pork loin, mashed taters and gravy and squash-both green and yellow sautéed with onions. Was good. Thank goodness my maid comes tomorrow.
I is so tired. Bad shoulder is killing me esp at night. I have an appt w doc on Wed to see if he will order X-rays and Cat or MRI. Cannot take it much longer. Always something.
Only woke up once during the night, so I guess that’s something. But I’m still really tahred - why does it take so long to recover from lost sleep? I guess being sick doesn’t help, either.
I will do laundry today - I put it off the last 2 times I was going to do it, but I really can’t do that much more. So when it’s more light out, I’ll drag the baskets of dirties downstairs and run a couple of loads. The weather folk say we’ll see 90-ish for the temp, so good drying ahead.
Did I mention yesterday that I have a phone interview with the second head hunter? I set it up for Thursday, hoping the worst of my cold would be done by then. The vacancy announcement she sent me didn’t mention which CAD software they use, so I’m assuming it’s not something rare and bizarre. But we shall see. If I could get something good for about 3 years, I could avoid applying for Social Security till I’m 65, which would mean a bigger monthly check, in addition to whatever I earn in the meantime. Shouldn’t get ahead of myself, tho…
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN 'Tis 72 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 90 and sunny for the day. I get to go to the waaaaay south forty today so the weather’s good at least. I get to do the same thing tomorrow as well. Rah.
OK, that’s all I got for now. I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy wants sustenance. Then, alas and alack, irk purtification must commence. I need to get upon the road soonish as well.
Most assuredly, blurf. Woke up about 0400 and bladder kept me awake. So scoured my bathtub and checked my e-mail (not at the same time, mind you) until 0500 when I usually arise.
Have a call at 1030 from the Edward D. Jones lady aobut my account. Brought some infromation in to irk with me, so I actually am thinking about it. We’ll see what she says.
Otherwise, I have several on-line calsses to complete (that they will not do me, who is retiring in less than a year, a damn bit of good doesn’t matter; my bosses need me to be on record of doing them, so…
More accomplishments: first load hanging on the line, second in the wash, third standing by. I’m showered and dressed. And I’ve got the sprinkler giving a drink to my sad-looking forsythia.
Still feel like I’m dragging, tho. I’m in serious need of a nap… maybe.
Looks to be a hot one today.
Damn I hate when my fingers are one letter off on the keyboard.
;ppld yp br s jpy pmr ypfdu and I get confused.
Woke up too early again, damn bladder but I wanted to talk to my friend who irks nights anyway. Hard talk with her, there’s always the part that says it’s none of my damn business.
I told her straighten it out because I have enough of my own stuff to worry about without worrying about her too.
OK, I don’t get it. I just got a call from a THIRD company looking for a drafter. I’ve got an interview with them tomorrow at 10.
WTF is going on around here?? Months and months, many resumes and applications with no response, then all of a sudden, I’ve got 3 different companies wanting me. I certainly hope one of them leads to a job.
I’m a little concerned about the interview tomorrow, only because of this stupid cold. While I was on the phone with the headhunter, I got choked up and had to stop to have a drink of water. I’ve been chewing gum, which helps keep my throat from drying out, but I don’t think it’s a good idea to go into an interview with gum.
Nah, I just like to watch two legs make a perfect ass of themselves.
Are you sure they are for different 3 jobs? I’ve had as many as 6 headhunters call me about the same position. Depending upon how they operate (w/ preferred vendors or to anyone), when a company opens a position up, it can be like a shark feeding frenzy of headhunters.
I know they’re different jobs because they’re at 3 different companies - the two who contacted me via email sent links to the company websites and the third guy who called is the engineering manager at yet another company.
I’m guessing a bunch of contracts have been awarded so they’re all frantic to fill vacancies.
So, I’ve got one interview tomorrow, a phone interview on Thurs, and I have yet to hear from the first company, altho the headhunter said they’re really interested. I’m curious to see how they react to my age - surely they’ve done the math and they know about how old I am. Or maybe they don’t care.
I like everything on a woman from the tips of the hair to the bottom of their feet. I also like all types of women. One of the many reasons I consider myself not just heterosexual but a flaming heterosexual.
Hot and humid with pop-up isolated storms but I’m thinking it feels more like a bike day than a car day.
All the laundry is on the line. I’ve finished watering the back yard and I’ve got the sprinkler going on the front garden. I’m thinking I’ll drive down to WaWa and get a sammich or a salad. My egg-n-cheese sammich from breakfast didn’t last very long.
