Setbacks and Awesome News!

So the other day I posted about having a job interview. As professional as I was, the person who contacted me about the job was highly rude and unprofessional. La jolla Maids will never get my excellent housekeeping qualities with that attitude, so I didn't go to the interview. So in that sense back to square one.

School issues were a bust, went to the Community College and they wanted me to take some pointless classes just to get an A.A. degree and transfer to a state college I'd never be able to attend. So with that news, I decided to enroll back in Ashford University. The F.A. department is getting better, and if I can take 8 more classes with them and not die of heart failure or high blood pressure, then I'll have my B.A. degree by this time next year.

Those were the setbacks.

Now for the Awesome news!

I have decided that until I can find a paying job, I will be volunteering with Operation Home Front. I'd love to help those who are needing assistance, and what better way than to help those who aren't getting the support they deserve? OK, that was a tad harsh, but my first task will be helping to fill 2800 backpacks for military kids who are attending school this fall. I cannot wait to get started!

Motto for today: just because shit falls on your shoulders from an invisible bird, doesn't mean something good can't happen in the same day...
