New Developement

Hello my Dear DS sisters, Well as most of you know I have been in a hurt financially.  My apartment locating job right now is not very profitable.  I have leased a few apartments but have not got paid on them yet.  It takes so long.  It is not my company, it is the complexes themselves that take their sweet time.  I have been on many interviews, but no one seems to want to hire me, so I applied at the local grocery store.  They hired me and I start today.  I am still going to do the apartment locating.  I am going to try to do both.  Working at a grocery store  was never my ideal job, but at least it will put money in my pocket to pay the bills.  Between both it should be okay.  Hopefully the apartment locating business will take off and I won't need the grocery store job.  I told them when they hired me that I already have a trip planned to NJ, so Linda this will not interfere with that.  I am still coming.  I don't know what kind of hours I will be working but it will be part time.  I told them I just wanted to work like 20 hours a week.  Just knowing that I will be able to pay the bills is helping me out of my depression.  Phyically I feel fine. I had Jury Duty yesterday.  My time was 12:15.    I parked my car at the Park and Ride and took the bus.  It was quite a nice experience.  I have not taken a bus in years.  It was quite a nice bus.  Was more like a plane on the inside, with the A/C overhead and storage compartment up above.  The bus takes the HOV (high occupancy) lane so it was quick fast.  I got there early because of the time I had to catch the bus.  The worse part was the sitting around waiting to see where they were going to send you.  Finally they let me go at about 2:45.  Did not pick me.  So I was grateful for that. So that is about it for now my dear sisters.  Let you know how it goes. Love and hugs to all Anita

Thank you all for your good wishes. I have been working more hours than I thought I would. I come home with my back aching from standing 7 hours. I am still in training. Lindamae even though it is local it is a chain, and a pretty big store. It is a supermarket. Not as busy as some of the other chains. It has been very busy over this Memorial Day weekend. I don\'t know how long I am going to last there. In the meantime though it is a way to pay my bill. Love to everyone.
