Wait...it's worth it!

This entry is NOT about what you think it's about! Church kids and their dirty minds! ;)

Yesterday on my way to the OC to check some dresses out...one for my sis the bride of course, and one for me and the other bridesmaids, (aka the suckers who have to wear what I deem most flattering on big boobed girls) I got a very important phone call.

"Hi this is Sarah (I liked this chick already) calling from "...School"  (about 2 minutes from my house). I have your resume in front of me (who knew, when employers say they'll keep it on file they actually do!) and I have a position open working with 7th graders here at "...." I'm looking to fill the position right away. Please give me a call back."

Are you kidding me?! I've been holding out for a job just like this since I came home from traveling! It's a younger staff, incredible school, foot-in-door opportunity, and working with special needs kiddos! I had a few options over the past few months; nannying, working at Nord's, and a few other awesome gigs (that "awesome" is dripping in sarcasm) but I just felt there had to be something else. I am not making sufficient dinero now and in all practicality should have taken one of the other jobs daaaaaaaaaaays ago.

I'm not totally certain I have the position but have a pretty legit feeling about it, after having stayed 3 hours after the interview and seen how everything goes down at that school and what my position would be like...let me just say, it would be AMAZING!

So stay tuned.

And food for thought (I have no idea why that saying means what it means but you get the point) when you're looking for something that's just right for YOU wait...it's worth it!

Playa hatin'...a harsh reality

This seems like an oddly serious post to be writing from the couch, with "My Blue Heaven" on in the background. I don't deny my love for Steve Martin and 80's films. I'm normally serving cocktails at this hour on a Sunday night but I came home a little early on account of a terrible tummy ache! Not sure if it's the flu that's going around or the cajun fries Pepe the cook gave me. Whether those babies were the cause or not...they were nonetheless a bad idea. The other option for this ache could be a case of the nerves, another meaning for "upset stomach" if you will. I'm a little upset over a few things. There are times when things go on around you (which have nothing to do with you-and by "you" I mean me) and somehow they still really get to you, to the bottom of your heart. I'm not sure if there is rhyme or reason to it, but at times that these very things which have nothing to do with your life can get you so, so upse...

Mind Blowing

Just go reheat that coffee for GOODNESS sake! Me reminding myself to try to enjoy life a little. This is a rough time. And I could start a post with those three sentences any Friday of the year, but particularly right now...this is a rough time. The struggle (sometimes TOTAL struggle, depending on the hour and minute) of staying home is of MINOR importance during a time like this, during any time really.  Let's get REAL, for most of us, life is good.  Really good. There are families suffering right now, and not just the elderly members of them. I won't go off on how frustrating it is to hear people lessen the severity of this because it's "just affecting older people." That's 1. Incorrect and 2. Unbelievably disrespectful *If you're lucky enough to have a Grandma or Grandpa still, or anyone in your life that's old enough to be considered "old" be thankful, then CALL them and check in. NOW. The current swing of Social Media o...

Strategerie...

I want to love people (somehow)in all circumstances. I've been thinking lately that's the whole reason we're here. God gave us a place to figure out how to do that, to figure out where the balance is in all scenarios concerning relationships... Where's the balance between loving people and setting boundaries for yourself? Being tactful and being truthful? Thinking of your needs and being selfish? Behavior that's healthy and unhealthy? Friendly and overbearing? Extrovert and introvert? Needing people and using people? Making things happen and waiting for things to happen? Flirting and well, too much flirting? Admiration and Jealousy? Being strategic (strategerie if you will, if a President says it, it must be a word) and conniving? Childlike innocence and adulthood? I don't want to focus on these things and being "balanced" so much so that I'm inhibited all the time, but I do think being aware is essential...purposeful even! Something to chew ...
