Oct. 31 - Halloween
Halloween - and a very nice day. Not a single trick or treater yet. I hope I get some so I can get rid of the candy I bought.
I remember 2 years ago when I was off - on Halloween. Like today, a very nice day. so I was driving to Wal Mart at 3:30 in the afternoon to get more candy, and it occured to me how little I had going on. It had come to that....and, I was off for 5 more months. I started this blog in December of 2008 after weathering too many days like that. and I know if anyone is reading this who is off feels just like that.....
so, my transmission crapped out, and I am facing an expensive repair. Since the car has over 100k on it, I am going to look for a new car. I was hoping to get 2 more years out of this one, but I have to face the inevitable. I have put too much money into this one in the last year, and it seems like a money pit with no end...so, I will have to get that taken care of this week..
as always, I know too many people between jobs right now. I try to get their resumes read at the company I am at, but I suspect recruiters and hiring managers get dozens of those requests for each opening. But I will continue to do so. I remember how those gestures made me feel when I was off. so little good to remember about those days that I really do remember who tried to help me find a job.
anyway, it is my mom's birthday tomorrow. 89 yrs old. I should be so lucky. an impressive accomplishment.
have a good week all. and happy Halloween.
