Count down

Those of you who read this blog already know what's going on with the work/living situation, so I won't go into much detail about that. Last week was a really hard one to get through, with little sleep and very high anxiety, but I got through it. When Friday night came along I was all geared up to go camping with Tim and his friends (I was invited but kind of re-invited myself for an excuse to be away from the house for the weekend!) but the weather was so bad and unpredictable that the trip got cancelled! :( Tim was still cool enough to let me crash at his place for the weekend and we ended up going to a housewarming party and then hanging around his place with my friend Sam who also happens to be Tim's housemate. It was a relaxing weekend, much needed to unwind before another stressful week!

I had an interview on Sunday for a part time nanny job with what seems like a really awesome family. The mother was so nice and friendly and works with kids with autism and teaches classes at Portland State University. They have three kids, 11, 5 (I think?) and a 20 month old girl who is just so cute and fun and playful. I was offered the job and think I might take it, even though it's only one day a week with the chance of more days on occasion. It's not the ideal job but it's something and considering that I do not want to do child care five days a week, this leaves room open for another non child care related job or even another child care job that is only 2 days a week. I've been applying to jobs of all kinds every day but haven't heard anything back...

As for apartment hunting, I'm waiting to hear back on a room I really want with three girls all my age. Tomorrow I'm going to look at a room available for 2-3 month sublet just one block over from where Tim lives. Ideally I'd like to find a permanent place but if that's not going to happen then a sublet will have to do.

No pictures or anything this time around! I haven't done anything new or exciting that was photo worthy and ma just trying to get through the days until the end of the month! But don't worry, I'm doing just fine!
