Decisions, decisions (maybe)

Well absolutely nothing got done in the office, (including finding the camera), but it was a nice thought. Yesterday I had my 2 nd interview for that job in Pullman, it seemed to go well. I don't think I blew it but I didn't feel like I aced it either. They are supposed to call me on Fri and let me know either way. My mom, Cole and I went out there together, they dropped me off and then drove around a bit and then went to McD's to play. The interview lasted about 45 min and went smoothly enough. The people there seem nice and i found out there is more flexibility with hours then I originally knew. My mom said she did not like Pullman and would not be moving there. On our way home we tried to find this little town I had heard about that has cheaper housing and ended up going on a goose chase that ended at a Dam. It was a nice drive and we found a neat campground that we will have to check out sometime. We did stop at another little town that is about 1/2 way in between tha...

New habits....new jobs

I was reading a new blog site (the lazy organizer) that I got from a friend and was inspired by her posts on organization and starting new habits. So I thought I should combine the 2 and work on keeping my office clean and organized on a daily basis. For anybody who has seen my office they know this is a daunting task. I get it cleaned up about once a month but since there is very little organization in it it always becomes messy again within a few days.In fact I am trying to find my camera to take a before pic, but of course it is such a mess that I can't find it. Oh well I will have to post it when I locate it under the mess. Don't worry I promise not to clean anything until I find it so you can see more clearly what a daunting task this is. (Isn't that a wonderful way to start my new habit). So my exciting news of the week is that I received a 2 nd interview for a job that I am not sure I want. As you who have been reading along with me know I have recently opened my o...

Another day.... another dollar (or 200.00)

Well I sold the trail a bike (see pic) that I bought last weekend at the Liberty Lake Garage Sale. I bought it for 5.00 and it sold for 206.25 for a profit of 201.25 , not bad if I do say so myself. The only down side is I now have to find a box pack this up and ship it to Minnesota. Most everything else has sold except a really cute slide that I just can't get rid of for some reason. Of course a new weekend brings a whole new group of things to sell. I have about 10 items listed right now with a few responses already. So here we go again. For someone who no longer has a set job I always feel like I am at work. I get up early on Fri and Sat around 6:30 get dressed and head out to garage sale (I know poor me). I bounce from place to place trying to find just the right stuff for just the right amount. Then I rush over to my new place by 10 or so to work on my 1st client of the day. I have been having about 3 people a day spread out through the day. So I am never sure when I will get ...

Aahhh, calm at last...(somewhat)

Well things have calmed down a bit around here. I officially put in my notice today and my check finally cleared on Fri (the 8th), which took a huge load off my shoulders. They did not fire me immediately so I will be working tomorrow. It might have helped that I dropped off my notice without talking to any one so they couldn't fire me on the spot. The Liberty Lake garage sale went well, I didn't find any big things but I bought tons of smaller things. I have already sold about 1/2 of it, but I have a few key items that haven't drummed up much interest yet. I will see what happens this week and then re list them on Friday if I have to. Oh I do have two bad notes to make. 1st is that I have lost my wedding ring, but I have been too chicken to tell my husband yet. I actually lost it last Wed but kept hoping it would show up, I have now pretty much lost all hope. The 2nd bad thing is that either my husband or I misplaced 50.00 last night, of course I blame my husband. We pre...

Life as I know it..... Stressful

Life has been very hectic since I last blogged. As I mentioned before i am starting a new business. I was planning on staying at my current job for at least the next 9 months, but I am now essentially being pushed out the door and will have to put in my notice on Mon. To start off I have been thinking for some time that I need to take my (massage) table home, due to wear and tear on it at work and now taking it home on weekends with me, I didn't want it to get ruined. So I sent a dispatch to my boss letting them know that in 3 weeks time I was planning on taking my table home permanently. I had also mentioned wanting to take my table home about three months prior to this. Anyways so 3 weeks go by with no comment from them, so I take my table home. The next day I get a call from my boss saying that they were not getting a new table so I could start working just Tue from now on (that is the day the other LMP is not there so the table they provided him was available. I was just floore...
