Hey peeps!!
Here I am again, another week, another worry, right? Still not working, but have an interview tomorrow. The position is Office Manager for a Psychiatry office, specializing in child and forensic psychology. So...the bonus if I get this job (besides the obvious bonues - money, a home, food, etc)? I can get some psych help for relatives in need. Feel me? (laughs) I'll keep you posted as to how it goes.
Finally found the kingdom hall here...I'd had a few problems getting started, but I went to my first meeting last night. Everyone was very friendly (which I expected) and although we (the kids and I) were a little nervous, it all worked out.
Things here in the mainland are slowly settling down. I can't believe it's already the middle of September. Gracyn left for school this morning with a scarf (which she's been dying to wear) - which spilled into a conversation about how cold it will get here. She then confessed that she wants some "boots with the fur" for the Winter. I'm sure, even though I wish she wouldn't wear them, we can hook her up with some.
I introduced her to thrift stores this weekend. There's a place here called Eco-thrift that has some amazing clothes, some still with the tags hanging from them. It's clean and HUGE. Anyhow, she went there with me and...found alot she wanted. She did end up getting quite a bit, but not anything close to all that she wanted. Forrest seemed happy for her when she showed him her "new" things, but after hearing it was second-hand, he made it clear that he wanted absolutely nothing from there. Oh, well, ya gotta have one picky kid right?
Will began HIS job search this week, beginning with a mad dash to a temp agency and then numerous postings of his resume on the internet. I showed him how to use email and I think he's comfortable after a few days. Good for him. Good for us!!
Well, not much else to report. I'm off to search the world wide web for a J-O-B.

Good luck with the job search, cuz. It sucks looking for work. Believe me, I know.

Glad to hear the kids are doing well with the mainland adjustment. Say "hi" to Will for me.

Love,
