Oh the blessed "weekend off!" And it's Sunday afternoon and I haven't done a thing that needed doing in my house! I hate working weekends. The only good thing about it is that it means on less day each week that the kids are away from home. Nick hates daycare so much I would work every weekend if it would keep him away from there, but it still wouldn't. Zack is fine with my mom and dad, but let's face it, they need a break sometimes too! So back to the weekend. We had plans...BIG plans. So far I haven't accomplished much. I went baby shopping with a friend yesterday and got Nick some new clothes (Gymboree had a big sale!!!), put away all of the "new" clothes in Zack's closet that used to be Nicks, did a LOT of laundry, and actually managed to cook all the meals at home so far this weekend. That's a lot for me. We went to church this morning...again, a big accomplishment for our household! Left on the agenda is getting a new garage door opener (just the little remote part...Nick lost mine), cleaning out the office and moving my desk back in (right now it's in our bedroom and that's not working for me at all!), making the weeks meal schedule, and paying some bills. Also (big news!!!) I need to find time to work on my resume. I applied for a job back in the early part of December and never heard anything about it....assumed they weren't interested, but found out that they couldn't find me in the hospital email system (I'm still in there under my maiden name). Anyway, long story short, I now have an interview on the 21st. YIKES! I haven't had an interview in a very long time! So I have to brush up my resume to reflect that I am indeed qualified to be the new "Director of Infection Control" at our hospital. YIKES again, director of a whole department...what am I thinking????? What I'm thinking is that I don't want to work Christmas again....ever. This really gets into a sticky mess though, because just last week...Tuesday...I accepted a position as midnight shift supervisor in the lab. I would never have said yes if I thought this other job was still in the works. So now tomorrow i have to go in and explain that "yes" I still want that job, IF this job doesn't come through. That's pretty crappy of me, isn't it? Oh well, watch me wind up with neither of them!!!! At least I'll get next christmas off......
So what's new in the rest of the world? Babies everywhere! A girl on my forum is having her third, my best friend is having a BOY, and the neighbor girl across the street just had a little girl this morning. And yes, I said neighbor "girl." This I don't understand....why can the young, unmarried and unready get pregnant and have great easy pregnancies, when there are other married women (I know, marriage isn't everything, but you know what I mean) who try and try every month and can't conceive? Never have figured that out. I have a good friend who had a pregnancy while she was in high school and had an abortion. (i think it's wrong, but i'm not going to debate that on my blog....) Messed her up. Now she's married and has been trying for YEARS (9 exactly!) to have a baby. They have spend so much money there is none left to pursue adoption with. And she would be a GOOD mom! And the other Mindy.....hope you don't mind being lumped in here.... It's your turn!!!! This was supposed to be the year for you and Lisa. God bless her, I'm so glad she's got those two little buns cooking... Now it was supposed to be your turn.... anyway, better quit while I'm ahead with this one.....
So now I'm off to sears to get that remote. Leaving hubby in charge of the kids and supper while i'm gone!!! hahaha Hey, mom needs a while out every so often!!!

I don't mind being lumped in there at all! ;) I still think it will be my year, I have faith! Thank you for thinking of me--it truly means alot--more than you know. So did you find your garage door remote? I really hope that one of the jobs pan out for you. Either of them sound great, but of course, I hope you can get a day shift job that will allow you more quality time with your boys. I worked midnights once when Haley was very little and I was single and it was the hardest thing I have ever done!! Exhausted didn't even describe it. I felt like a walking zombie!! I'm hoping you get the one you really want the most!! Good luck on the interview. Be yourself. You're amazing. :)
good luck with the interview. i work nights now and it sucks. the only good thing is that toby stays at home with them and i get some sleep, but if he worked i wouldn't be able to function! good luck. i'm sure you'll do great no matter what job you get!
