House plans....

This year I am wanting to buy a house if possible. Since it is tax time, my plan is to use my tax money on getting my credit report cleared off so I can get my score up. Once I do that, I can hopefully start looking for a house. I just don't want to get another apartment. I am sick of apartment living. I want a place I can call my own. A yard my kids can play in everyday. I have been looking for houses and I found one that's a pretty nice size. Its an over 3000 sq ft house with 4 bedroom and 2 and a half baths. It also has a living room, a family room, a loft and a den so plenty of room to run around in and have privacy. It says its going for $109,900 right now and hopefully the price will get lowered again soon. I just hope no one tries to snatch it up before I get a chance. It also said it needs some work and who knows how much so that's something I would have to look into if I get the chance. If I have a chance to put an offer in, I will definitely try to low ball it. That is, if it doesn't need too much work but it seems like a house that is too good to pass up. I'm surprised no one has put an offer in for it yet. It has been on the market since November. There are other houses I am interested in but that one is at the top of the list. I hope I can start looking real soon.

New Year.....

This is my first post for the new year. Sucks I waited so long but I did. It is February now. The night job that I posted about, I only lasted 3 weeks there. Which was for the best. I wore myself out trying to work two full time jobs. I wasn't getting any sleep. I would be dozing off driving. Now I know that if I was to get another second job, it would be part time but I don't have any plans of getting another night job. I am back in school and I am happy. I am determined to do good and pass my classes. So far I think I am doing good. I have been turning my assignments in, the only thing is the reading. The chapters are so long its hard to concentrate for long. I was only able to get into two classes this semester. I wish I could have taken more but I didn't get registered into school until after the semester had started and the classes I need to take, either they aren't offering this semester or I have to take a prereq first or they were full. I had all of my classes for the next 5 semesters planned out and since I got registered late and could only sign up for two classes I had to rearrange it so hopefully I'll be able to stick to the schedule. I plan on taking 3 classes this summer then 4 in the fall and next spring, then I should only have 2 left by next summer. After that, I'll be able to take my junior classes and I can't wait. I looked up the syllabus' for those classes and they seem easy. The cool thing is no projects and I don't think there are any papers to write. I have a year and a half until I get there if I can pass the rest of these classes I need to take which I plan on doing. I hope everything goes as planned but like I said so far so good.

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.

Beginning of October...

It is October. I can't believe the year is almost over. Less than 3 months and it will be a new year. Well I went to the interview for the full time night job I wanted on Wednesday and I think I bombed the interview. I really don't think I did a good job answering the questions. I hate interviews that ask "Give me an example of a time you had to do this or that". I feel like I can't think of an answer fast enough and start fudging up what I want to say and don't know how to say it right. So I guess I can forget about that job because I never received a call after unless they miraculously will call sometime this week but I won't hold my breath. I had another job interview Thursday for a day job I had applied to weeks ago for a position pretty much doing what I am doing now but it's at my old company that I left to come to the job I am at now but not the same building. I am hoping I will get that job. I think I did a whole lot better during that interview then I did the last because all we did was talk. I never was asked any of those quick think on your feet questions that they usually ask at interviews. So hopefully I am lucky enough to get that job. I think it will be a better opportunity and I know I won't have to work holidays and weekends which is what I have been trying to get in a job forever. Although the job I have now I only work one weekend every 7 weeks is better than every other but I would rather not have to worry about working weekends period. I am kind of ready to leave the job I am at now. I am thankful they hired me when they did and got me out of the crappy job I was doing for way too long but I'm ready to go if I get that job. Hopefully the pay will be even better than what I am getting now. All I can do is wait and hope they call and say I'm hired. I'm sure its going to be awhile before I hear anything. If I know this company it takes about 2 months to get hired. As soon as you apply it takes about a month for someone to call for an interview and then after the interview it takes another month before you know if you are hired or not. So all I can do is wait and hopefully get some good news soon...

DNA stressing....

I never thought that I would be confused about who my child's father is. I feel like one of them girls off of Maury except the messing around with numerous guys. My child's dad is either my ex or this guy I messed with one time who lives in another city in another state. I bought a DNA test from the store and I'm going to have my ex take it. I will be happy when the wondering is over. I literally can't even look at my daughter and say she looks like him or him. My daughter is almost one years old so it will be nice to finally know which one is the dad. I'm honestly hoping she belongs to my ex only because it would suck if she belong to the other guy when I barely know him. I have known him for almost two years and as long as I have known him we have only really talked through text. We have never been on a date or spent any significant amount of time with each other so it would suck to have a kid by a guy you barely know. At least with my ex he'll be here for her and it would be nice to know that both of my kids come from the same parents. According to the Babycenter calendar app I have on my phone, its telling me that my ex is the one. I'm not sure how ovulation works but I thought women ovulated 2 weeks after the first day of their period. I know on the day after my 2 weeks on the calendar it said that my period started 12-16 days ago and I should be ovulating now or soon and on the calendar it said on my birthday that I should know by then that I was pregnant and I found out two days before so if I have to guess I would say she's my ex's but I still have a what if in my head like there could be a 50-50 chance it could go either way. I pray things turn out the way I want it to I will be disappointed if it doesn't but I'll be happy to finally know the verdict.

Things didn't go as planned...

Its been a month since I last posted. The last post I left was a list of things I had to do for the week. Well it didn't really get done. The part time warehouse job that I was going to work at, I didn't get to go because I couldn't find my driver's license so I missed the opportunity. It sucks because I could have been working by now. I had to send away to get a new one and I have it now so I can try again to get on but first I want to see if I can find something else hopefully closer to home. I applied to a job this morning that is a company that makes shirts. Its a full time position 9:30 pm-6 am and its pretty much around the corner which sounds good to me. The description of the job said that all I would be doing is answering customers emails which sounds like an easy job and a sit down job which is what I want. I wouldn't mind a full time job then that way I'll bring home even more money to pay my debts off plus Christmas is coming up fast so I definitely need money for that. I hope that I will be able to get a job within the next couple of weeks so that I can start paying as much of my debts off until tax time so whatever is left over I can use my tax money to pay the rest off and hopefully my credit score will go up enough by the summer time so I can start looking for a house. I think getting a house will be my next move so I will spend one more year in this apartment then I hope to be moving in a house once the lease is up.

I didn't get to start school this semester unfortunately. Since I had been out for a year, I had to reapply as a returning student. I applied a month ago and I am still waiting to hear back. I hope I can hear something in the next couple of weeks because I also have to apply to the community college as a guest student so I can take my math and anatomy classes and I can't do that until I hear from them plus I think in October you can start registering for Spring classes and I would hate to have to wait until the last minute. So right now while I'm waiting, my main focus is finding a job.
