Job!

It took 3 months but I finally got a job. Good thing I'm living at home otherwise I'd be having some major issues considering I've only got about $100 to my name. I don't have a start date and it's only 25 hours per week but I'm super excited. On my way back to some sort of independence. Whoo-hoo

isn't there a magic word

That can unpack all of my crap. Yeah, I'm still complaining about unpacking. I've started with my room. So much stuff, so little room. It's hard going from a full apartment to just a bedroom.
And I still haven't heard about that job.
Boo

Unpacking

We've moved into our new home. It's actually an addition of someone else's home. So I sort of feel like a permanent house guest, especially since I have no key. It's a disaster and I hate unpacking. We don't have a lot of storage space so I've got to figure out where to put things. Not enjoyable but I've got to do it (obviously).

I still have no job. Sort of frustrating

I want to travel and I can't afford it.

Alternator needed fixing
Got home around 12:30 in the afternoon
My bed never felt so good


It was a good trip. Though, being back has made reality hit hard: Need to pack up for the move, Have to find a job. Things have been frustrating on the job/life front. I wonder if I made a mistake moving back from bflo.






Here are a couple of pics: The first one is from Crater Lake and the second is of The Rogue Waterfall
