Attitude adjustment

All right its time to stop feeling sorry for myself and start telling myself that I am going to find a job. You know that theory of law of attraction, attract what you want instead of what you don't want, well I am going to try that! So rather than telling you how frustrated I am about not finding a job, I am going to tell you that I AM going to find a career that I like. I am grateful for the job I have, and the support of my family and husband! I am grateful for the roof over my head and the food I have to eat. I will find a career and things are going to look up! Ha, take that universe and law of attraction!

Frustrated!

Frustrated, mad, and upset pretty much sums up how I feel, and have been feeling, for the past two months. I know I have only been done school for two months, but I was hoping that I would have found a career by now. I do enjoy working at the pub, however the 10 hours I get are not a good enough contribution to the household! I need a career with good pay, hours, and benefits. I am hoping I find something much sooner than later. All I do is sit at home and watch endless hours of T.V, and hunt for jobs on the internet. The feeling of unproductivity and laziness is getting old! I need to find something to occupy myself with in the meantime. That is my rant for the day, sorry it sounds depressing or negative, but that is the feeling of the day! I am trying to be positive.

Deja Vous

Well here I am again in AB, you might be thinking you read this already, and that is partially correct, because it was roughly this time last year I wrote about my trip to Calgary, well here I am again. I am having a good time. Hanging out with family, seeing as many people as I can, and its been great. Last year there was a lot more running around, this year its a little more mellow. Visiting family has been pretty low key, just sitting around chatting about old times and eating, nothing wrong with that! The wedding I was in was successful, and it was a great time! Nothing else is new to report. I go on home on Sunday, and while I am sad to leave my family, I am super excited to see my husband! I know its only been ten days, and there are people out there who haven't seen their husbands/wives for much longer, but ten days is long for me!! I can't wait to snuggle with him.

Thoughts of the day

Although summer is undoubtedly the best season of the year, fall ranks second. I love the colors, but my favorite part is how its just cool enough to wear a sweater. I love hoodies and vests, any excuse to wear them is a good one. Its not too hot, but not too cold in the fall, that is the best.

The siding is going up nicely on our house. There have been a few stressful and tense moments, but for the most part everyone, and everything, is cooperating nicely. Soon our thirty year old house will look brand new.

I am going to Calgary tomorrow night. My plane leaves from St. John, and while I am a little sad to leave Al, and my in-laws, I am super excited to see my family and friends. Who knows when I will get to see them again after this year.

I am hoping to take a trip this xmas down South. Al's parents are going down south for the winter, and hopefully it will work out that we can meet them for Christmas.

The job market is looking gloom. I have not heard back from the job interview I had last week, but I will keep looking, even on my vacation!

I went to the FREX, which is an exhibition in town, and I had a lot of fun. I watched barrel racing, and even went on a ride, which scared the crap out of me. It was great. It made me miss the stampede desperately, so I guess the FREX will have to fill that void.

I am super excited for this weekend. My friend is getting married, and I am a bridesmaid. Should be a blast. I get to see most of my friends at the same time and party it up!
