Tide is Changing

Go figure, it worked (at least so far). I was able to channel the Ames Factor for good for someone else, and today all I've received is good news. My husband made the eligibility list for a job in Southern California. Turns out I'm making 1.50 more per hour than I was told. My paycheck came in time to pay the dentist bill. And the $10 Target gift card came for my son. All good things today. Hope it holds.

Ames Factor - The Sequel

I, along with the majority of unemployed people, am actively looking for a job. One position I made it to #13 on an eligibility list. And that's for a job I'm actually qualified for, one in my field. I have another oral board next month. Yet, it was Saturday I was offered a job. One I have no idea what I'm doing. I'm selling Fossil watches at Macys, and have no idea what I'm doing. Ironically I am selling a lot of them. Now they want to keep me on after the holidays. Unfortunately, it's only Saturdays and Sundays, which interfere with the Sunday meetings I go to. Why...why...why??? Oh yeah, Ames Factor....lol

Murphy's Law

Murphy has a law... I hate that guy Murphy. Because of him I have a factor...lol. I went back to work in about 5 years... haven't even received my first paycheck and well, it's already prespent. Go figure. Ames Factor... my husband's tooth got infected. Not only was he in too much pain to work, he needs to have it extracted. So, today we're going to the dentist. Almost my entire paycheck, which is somewhere in the mail, I'm hoping is already winging its way over to me. Couldn't I have the money for like 5 minutes?? Ames Factor

Fortune Cookie

Last night I got a fortune cookie, with the "fortune" saying "You will soon be crossing great waters". Wow, I'm going to England...visit my husband's great great grandfather's country and well, maybe visit my sister. No, wait... I'm going to Hawaii to drink mai tais and relax on the beach. Then I remembered the Ames Factor... it rained last night... I'm probably going to cross a flooded road...lol
