Need more lucky dust....

Yesterday, I wrote a post about me getting the full time night job that I started last night. So far its pretty cool. We have only just done introductions and played little games and learned a little about the company so far. We'll see how tonight goes but I sure am getting sleepy. I have been up since about 6:30 yesterday morning and have only had 3 hours of sleep from the time I got in last night since they let us leave at 3 to the time I had to get up for my day job. After tonight, we will be staying until 6 so I don't think I will be getting any sleep until Friday night. Surprisingly, I haven't been all that sleepy. This morning I drank one of the Starbucks cold coffees and I was fine all day at work, wasn't really sleepy or anything. I'm going to have to go get another for tonight and see if that will help keep me awake because I am starting to get sleepy now. If it works for me tonight, I'll just start drinking those from now on.

Now for needing more lucky dust. I got a call today about a job. Luckily, it wasn't anyone calling about a night job since I already have that covered. It was for a day job with the old company I was working for before I started the job I'm at now. I have an interview for it Thursday and its pretty much the same job I'm doing now, although I doubt I'll be doing the exact same thing. The only thing I know is that its Monday-Friday which is what I want of course. No weekends and no holidays and the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and New Years Eve I would only have to work half a day so it sounds sweet so far. The only thing is I need to know the hours and the pay. Hopefully, the hours are what I have now because I don't want it to interfere with my night job and the pay is more than what I'm getting now since I should pretty much know a lot because I have been working for the same department for going on 6 years so I hope it will be good. I so hope I get it since that means going back to my old company and that's what I want. The company I work for now is cool but I never wanted to leave my old company in the first place but a better opportunity never presented itself before the company I'm at now offered me a job but it will be so great to go back and continue my tenure. So wish me luck!!!

Its November!!...

It is officially November. I can't believe that the year is almost over in 2 months. I have some good news. I got that full time night job that I interviewed for at the beginning of October(well technically it was the end of September) and thought I didn't get, well I got it. I got the call last Thursday and had to leave work early today to go to the orientation at 12. I start tonight at 9:30 and I am ready to get started. The sooner I start, the sooner I can get paid so I am ready. I have it planned out that I am going to take 200 out of every check for my housing fund so I can officially start saving to get a house and hopefully by this time next year I will be able to get one and the rest of my check is going to be spending money and money to pay off the stuff I have on my credit report so I can get my credit score up. So hopefully if all goes well with this job, I'll be able to get my score up and save up enough money in 6 months to be able to house hunt. I'm excited I finally got a second job but scared about not getting enough sleep. I know I am going to be sleep deprived but I go to do what I got to do. I have goals for me and my kids and I really want to get a house for us. I want them to have a place to run around in and have a yard to play in plus I'm sick of going back and forth to apartments. I'll be happy when I get use to this night job because right now I feel like I just want to get ready for bed. So far I been up all day and have only laid down for a little bit but tonight I'll be off at 3 so I'll be able to come home and get a couple hours of sleep before I have to go to my day job and then back to my night so I don't know when the next time I will get to lay down. So wish me luck and hopefully I don't kill myself trying to make a better life for me and my kids. I don't have help so I have to do this all on my own. It would be nice to have a man in my life and he could help out some but since I don't have that in my life. it's up to me to take care of everything. Hopefully, that will change one day but I know it won't be anytime soon.
