Of being unemployed. I worked for S&N one day last week as well as cleaning at Bean's place. It's all extra cash, which is great. Still no bites on the resume. Although... the HR department from the gov't did call on Wednesday to ask me some questions about school. YAY! My goal this week is to apply to at least 10 places and see what happens. Who knows... maybe I'll apply to 20:-) I also have another friend/mentor that has offered to give me some proof-reading work. That could be really neat because I love a good challenge. Um... overall this last week seemed rather rushed to me. I was basically doing something every single day. As an unemployed person, I am quite busy.
Right now I'm procrastinating on this paper that is due by midnight Monday. I got two additional books for sources yesterday and literally - all day today I have sat and stared at my computer screen waiting for the words to jump onto the pages. Nothing is working. I can't focus. I can't concentrate and worse of all - I can't remember. I hate having a horrible memory with this type of stuff. I want to remember. I want to KNOW. Yet... for some reason it just doesn't sink in. I have to write an 8-10 page paper on God and the Old Testament. Normally I don't mind these types of papers... but this one has got me really stumped. I'm hoping that by blogging it will loosen the muscles a little and something will strike me.
This weekend felt rushed. Friday we had the squirt, but I ran a couple errands. Saturday we had fun and went to the Littleton History Museum/Littleton Farm. It was neat. In the museum building they had a photography exhibit. Then, in the historical areas we got to see some neat photos of old Littleton. Neato. Then we headed outside to the farms. There was an 1860s farm and an 1890s farm. The 1860s farm had an original little house that was soo cool. And there were animals. The squirt loved seeing everything. There were real turkeys, chickens, donkeys, a cow, sheep, a ram and even babies - LAMBS!! OMG they were so freakin cute. I think there were around 6-8 black ones just wobbling around. We tried to feed the cow, but she wasn't all that interested. Then on the 1890 side there was a blacksmith making a grill fork that would later be sold in the gift shop. Neat, huh? The squirt liked seeing all the tools and introduced himself to everyone and everything. He's so darn cute. After that we walked over to the library where he and dad picked out some books. I had to get a couple for this dang paper. Then we came home and the kid took a nap. I then rushed out to get a massage from my chiropracter's office while I still have insurance. It felt wonderful. Then I ran to Target. Seriously, I shouldn't be allowed in that store alone. Ever. Anyways... that night was very low key. Daddy and I got some dinner and watched the first 3 episodes of Season 2 of Dexter. I am hooked on this show people. It's crazy.
Today has been... uneventful. Daddy and I read a chapter from this book I picked up at the library. We are going to make sure and read a book together at least one day a week. I have a whole list of books that have been recommended in class, so we'll be busy for a few months.
Anyways... so here I am. I watched the Oscar's tonight. I have to say, it was actually entertaining. I don't recall the last time I watched the whole thing. But it was good.
Dang.. I can't believe it's the last week of February. Ugh. I start a new class on Tuesday. I'm a little nervous but anxious at the same time. My past two professors haven't been all that great, and this one coming up has quite a reputation for being THE BEST. Super. Alright. I'm going back in. Wish me some luck. Say a prayer. Send good vibes. Whatever... just pass it all along please.
Gracias.
