I got the job...&...i absolutly hate it!!

So...about two Fridays ago i get this call from an animal daycare that i put in an application almost a month and a half ago. I didn't get a call back for a good while. Well the lady calls me back and asked me if i was still interested...i really wasn't, but i needed something to do. So i opened my big mouth and said sure, why not! I started last Monday, and it has been hell ever since. Don't take me wrong it is an easy job, i just bathe dogs all day for 8 bucks an hr. But there is no excitement in it, i get there bathe one dog after the other try to clean up everybody else mess, cause they don't know how to clean. It depends on how late i work cause its either 7-3 or 11-6 then on the weekends in 8-5 then 10-5. They told me in a couple of weeks that i will get moved to the front desk, but then my luck i will just have to work more hrs. My first week of work, Jb was off two days, then had the whole weekend off, that never happened when i didn't have a job. He left yesterday for a week. When he gets back he will be off that Monday, then leave the following week for a month. How my luck goes i will have to work this weekend and that Monday that he has off. I was happier when i didn't have this job. Yes it is money coming in but i know i can find another job that i will be so much happier at. Now that i have this job all the other jobs that i applied for that i actually wanted are calling me back. In fact i got two calls yesterday, one was from the NEX and the other i have no clue lol. I'm going to give this place a month and if nothing changes and they don't move me, I'm quiting.

Everything else has been amazing. We watched the musical Chicago the other nite and it makes me want to take some kind of dance class. Jb took dance when he was younger and always does some kind of move that i wish i could do but, i know i would mess it up some how. We got a new baby kitten she is 6 months old and very adorable. Her and Baylie get along so well. We mainly got her for Baylie, since i had got a job and she was not able to come with me everyday we didn't want her to feel alone. She is not the most affectionate kitten but Baylie loves her. Well i guess i will leave it at that, ill put up some pictures of Gracie and Baylie!



Baylie & Gracie after 2 days of knowing each other!



Miss Gracie


She is very adorable.

Tough times...

So...here i go complaning about a job...again!! Today i recieved a call about the job at the vet at Petsmart. She offered me the job but i don't want it! She asked if i would come in Friday and just follow everyone around an i said sure!! Once i got off the phone i got just a little depressed...because i don't want to work at a vet. I have put in so many applications and they are the ones to call me back...urg!! I just want to take the job because i feel so bad that i am not helping JB out, he says thats it ok, but i still feel horrible! I want a job but i don't want one in a vet! I don't know what to do, i have put in so many applications, i guess all i can do is wait....

Lately...




I haven't had much too do. I had a job interview last tuesday at a Doggie Daycare. It went very well and the place was amazing. It was huge with a little jungle area for the small dogs to play in. Then in the back there were tons of runs (kinda scared me cause that means lots of dogs!). Plus upstairs they had a 1000 sq. ft. gym where all the big dogs played and took naps. I was kind of hoping that i would get it, i still might even get it i have to wait till next week when they get my background check back. I got another call today from Banfield a vet at petsmart. I would start part time at $8 dollars, which is really good for me and i don't mind part time cause it just gives me something to do. Lately i haven't been feeling well, just tired of staying at the house makes me a little stir crazy! Jb is home for 3 more weeks so that makes me very excited! He will be gone for a month so im so hoping that i have a job before he leaves! Today i went and got my hair cut, it feels so much better, the lady cut like 6in or more off of it. When she got finished cutting my hair she goes im glad your not crying lol. Then i gave Baylie a haircut! By the way $12 clippers suck, i pretty much butchered the poor dog lol. We haven't really explored any new place lately. We did go play tennis yesterday though...that was pretty fun. It has been nice here the past couple of days, i just wish it would get warm so we could go to the beach! I can't wait for summer! This all pretty much sums up the past week. Nothing very exciting but its all fun! I leave off with a picture of my new haircut!

Same ol' same ol'!!

So...nothing has really been going on here to write about. Im still looking for a job, in fact i got a call back today from the vet in petsmart she said that if i was still interested, call her back. The last time i talked to them they wanted me to be an assistants assistant, for those of you who know me, i have been working at a vet for three years, and i think i know more than an assistants assistant, come on now. There is also another vet thats like 5 minutes down the road, i have to call back tomorrow and talk to the office manager! So i hope i can figure something out! Jb gets in tomorrow nite at 6 but since he has duty he won't be home until 7:45 saturday morning. I have been cleaning house today trying to make it look and smell nice for him! Oh, i also got a new mop today lol, that was probably the highlight of my day. Its one of those swiferwet mops, so you know what i did today haha. When job gets good and rested im going to try and convince him to go to the gym... from not being as active as i use to be plus the weather changing my knee is hurting me pretty bad! But, i think i will leave it at that me and Baylie are going to watch a movie before we go to bed!!

This job thing!

I swear that i am never going to get a job! It seems like i have put in 20 applications, an i have only got like 2 calls back then they turn around and say they are not hiring anymore! URGGGG! I just need something. Monday i am going to call all the places that i applied for and see whats going on. I got to talk to Jb the other day for about 8 minutes and he told me that he thinks that i should just wait till he gets home and stays for longer than a week to help me! As much as i would love that, i want one NOW! Today was so long, i used all of my color ink, which wasn't much to print out pictures of our wedding. Then i put them in frames and an album. Oh, and i tiddie up this morning, since the house is clean already! Tomorrow i might work on the guest room and paint my toes lol!

Our apartment!

So I have been up here in Norfolk for almost 3 weeks now. It is really interesting. I love our little apartment it feels like home now. I think Baylie is starting to get use to it to lol. It’s not the biggest thing in the world but it’s our first place. The other day I opened the screen door going to the patio and let Baylie sit outside. It scared me for about the first 15 mins while she was out there. She would sit really close to the edge and look down. Everyone who has been to Manda & Tylers house say that our living room looks pretty familiar, maybe that cause it’s their old furniture...hmmm! By the way I think I may have found a job today, it’s at a place called Rit Aid kind of like a Walgreens, i went in today to get a few things and asked the lady if they were hiring, she said that they were looking for people really bad and she gave me a application, so let’s see how this one works out. Here are a few pictures of the place and some of Baylie, doing what she does best, lies around!

Underways arent that much fun for me!!

Here you go manda im writing one!!
Ok...so the Navy has these things they call Underways, where they go out to sea from any where to a couple of days to weeks at a time. The way Jb talks about it, they are not very fun for him. They are not very fun for me either. If i had a job i don't think i would mind them so much. Thats another thing that has me all stressed out. I thought it would be fun to not have a job, haha thats a joke. I see what Amanda was talking about all those time lol. It sucks not having one. There is only so much a wife can clean, till she can't clean anymore. Jb has only been gone this time for 2 days and we still have another 9 till he is home. I have put in applications at quite a few places. Even some of them being vets, which by the way are not hiring. I feel bad cause im not use to asking Jb for money or anything like that, and in this past year i have become so independent that im use to doing everything myself. I know he is my husband but i don't know... I think i would feel better if i had a job. Today was probably one of the longest days since i have been up here. I went to Walgreens, then me and Baylie drove around for like 20 mins just to get out of the house. Tomorrow im going to go job hunt some more so hopefully i can find one. Everyone keep your fingers crossed for me.
