Oh, Ellis

My TA-DA for today was to do a makeover on my resume and write an awesome cover letter and then I posted to another job on the government website

I'm still trying!

Good for you, Mauvais... the right job is just waiting for you... don't give up, hon!

Good Luck on the job search Mauvais!

Well I have 2 ta-das -

I FINALLY bought a dryer, after not having one for over a year. It is being delivered tomorrow.

The second one is after making things much worse, I repaired a friendship, I think. We are going to really talk for the first time tonight, it has mostly been email and IM. I am not sure if it is perfect, but I think we are ok now.

Big TA-DA - just shovelled the snow off the back part of the deck so the sun can melt the rest of the ice! The guys come tomorrow to install the new woodstove and hearth so will need that working space. (I guess this could really go under exercise but it was too pleasant out there to count!)

Good going chicks

Good luck with your friend Squeak!

Squeaker, I'm glad for you re: your friend. You must feel a weight off your back.

Ruthie... hope the woodstove installation goes smoothly.

I don't have a ta-da for today, but I'm hoping for some biggies tomorrow...

WAY TO GO JIFFY POP

That is truly amazing!

On the weekend I finally took all the knicknacks off the bookshelves and dusted everything (even the plants

) and spent some time reorganizing the bookshelves. I have been meaning to do this for ages and just never got around to it

Today's TA-DA is that I have made a conscious effort to have a better attitude towards my job and to not get stressed out as much. It seems to be working so far

Sojourner · 03-17-2003, 04:41 PM

My big ta da for today is that I interviewed for a really great position... and it seemd to go very well and I think they liked me! This was just the first round of interviews, and it seems like there is a lot of competition for this job... but I'm keeping my hopes up.

I made 6 whole food meals for myself today. No bars, no shakes. I knew I could do it!

Good luck with the job, Sojo!

jiffypop · 03-17-2003, 10:24 PM

what a wonderful bunch of accomplishments!! now, if anyone wants to tackle more dusting and organizing, let me know!1!!

sarajane · 03-17-2003, 11:27 PM

Good luck to the job hunters! Way to go Jiffypop!!!

Squeaker - KUDOS to you for repairing your friendship! That is a whole in your heart that could be filled no other way.

Ruthie - my parents have a wood stove and my mom puts her hiney up to it to warm up. Have fun!!!

squeaker · 03-18-2003, 07:51 AM

It was a wonderful feeling to make up, but it was a hard thing to do. We had our first real big fight in the middle of trying to repair things. As it turns out, niether of us are completely right or wrong. We had our first real phone conversation for the first time in almost 2 months last night. It was nice.

Good Luck on the job Sojo!

Jiffypop - you get to do your own organizing and cleaning, unless you are willing to excercise for me, then I'll think about it.
