LL I hope Joe's intervew goes well.  How long before you think you will know something?

The sun is finally out here but it is cool.  April was actually nicer than May.  I really need the dirt moved from my driveway to the raised beds and Robert is out of town this week.  I am thinking about asking if my ds or my neighbor's college age son would be willing to move the pile for money.  I have screwed up my arm some how and shoveling and moving that much dirt just is not in the cards for me.

Yep, I am boring.

So, Leah, is there any good job prospects for Joe by LL?

Ihni.

He was getting lots of bites on his resume for a few weeks, and now NOTHING. No headhunters, no calls, no interviews.

I could cry about it daily, but it doesn't really help, lol.

Can you believe Travis STILL hasn't heard anything.

I've accepted it is a no, but until we get a no it is hard to move forward, kwim?

At this point I would have under 2 weeks to pack and get ready to move.  Probably best for it to be no.

Yet I know he still wants it.  grumble.

He won't call to push for an answer until Friday.  Friday? 

Clearly the man was born with a tad more patience than the lady he married.

Boo to them!

Joe's the same way about calling - likes to put it off to not look pushy, but I like him to do it so he a) seems genuinely interested, and b) so he can get a freaking clear answer.

I'm still crossing my fingers for him!!!

well he just finished. He said not to hold my breath :(

Ugh I think I'm gonna cry

Don't do that.

Getting him there is important, but you don't want him somewhere that isn't a good fit - it'll eat at him, and ooze into your home life. Truuuuuuuuust me on that. Something will come together for him, and soon - I know that!

 Well he is underqualified but the guy did say positive things like he would be willing to give him a chance and discussed salary.  He is supposed to hear something next week.  *sigh*

LL I am sorry it did not go better, but it doesn't sound terrible either.  Leah is right.  It's better to have a good fit where he can be happy and like his job or he will be miserable at work and home.

Jen, this waiting sucks.  I think it's a man thing.  I hope that whatever happens, you find out soon.

Leah, this job market is so screwy right now.  I hope things look brighter for Joe and you soon. 

Sappy, I hope your effort pays off.  In some ways it might be better that things weren't smooth as silk because the psychologist will know you are not putting on a front.  I am betting it also was not as bad as what it feels and would hope that someone in that field would have more than a clue what kids are like.

Now can someone go make my dog stop barking.  I really don't want to deal with him.  Thanks.

good afternoon, my friends!

on the road again. It's a beautiful day today here. Lovely.

I'm heading to the gym in a bit.

Good morning!

What's everyone up to today?

Gm, I'm eyeing a mound of work I should have done yesterday with a huge sense of dread.

I'm also being a little pushy with Travis and trying to get him to call the place he applied at.  Enough already ;)

jenn

i hope you get an answer asap! that waiting would make me rip out my hair.

i am using my body shop oil warmer and it smells SO good!

i'm not sure it's a good idea though because it's making me hungry.
