This weekend was exciting, I finally met JR's parents. His cousin on his mother's side got married on Saturday & we both thought it was a linda neutral place to met them. His parents are super conservative, so I chose to tone down the 'witchy' until they get to know me better. There is a 1st...

I understand that.

We can do so next year if you are going! I know I am going for at least war week. When NYS comes through for me.

Pennsic 50: The Good, the Bad & the Ugly We left early in the morning of July 29th. Getting out of NY was uneventful, the usual Route 95 traffic across the GWB. NJ was smooth as well. An hour into PA we notice signs about construction ahead. Some friends made the trip before us & said that the...

Mid August Update Every single one the jobs I interviewed for fell through. On top of that, because of the people making Pandemic crafts into small businesses, it became even harder to secure events. JR said that it's ok to take a break, go to Pennsic for the full 2 weeks, regroup to take the...

The Positives OK, the phone interview with Ikea went well. So well they want me to do an in person interview for tomorrow at 4pm! The Negatives They are requiring that I work weekends, which I expected, since it's a retail position. But since it's part time, 12-20hrs, there isn't any benefits...

Denture wax try in today. It looked really good. I can't wait till the end of the month for the permanent one! YIPPEE.

No news on the Girl Scouts sigh. But, I last Friday I received an email from Dover Books & Publications requesting a phone interview for today at 1pm! The interview went really well & Cassey said that I was an excellent candidate. She was going to put me forward for a zoom interview for most...

Yesterday I texted the Girl Scouts with my updated resume through the messaging system on Indeed.com. I hope it got to Ivy, the assistant HR person I saw during the phone interview kerfuffle.

Another week gone & still no email. Not even a response to my inquiry. I was going to hold off boosting my soap inventory until I heard something. But now I think the silence speaks more than anything.
