Yes folks, you read that right, mom sitting.
Some background info....
My mom is not well, she's on oxygen, she falls a lot, and well, she doesn't feel like she should be home alone for long periods of time.
My dad, sister and her husband are out of town at a car show, and I get to spend the weekend with my mom, and my dog, Licorice.
It was pretty much a cake walk, just cleaning, playing tug of war with Lick, doing laundry, stuff like that.
One thing that did freak me out was early Saturday Morning, the heater in the house turned on for some strange reason. The smell of burning dust awoke me from my sleep. I as already nervous about something happening when that happened. I turned off the heater, made sure mom was okay, and tried to go back to sleep.
It was nice to be with my mom, and to be at my parent's house again. I could do whatever I want really. Something that caused the hubby and I to fight, but that's another time really.
On a different note, I lost 7 pounds in the last two weeks. My cousin, the personal trainer, hooked me up with a great app, and I've cut my calories down to about 1400. Only time will tell if this works, but stepping on the scale, I feel damn good right now.

Unemployment sucks
There's no way around it really.
I'm among the masses who do not have work. I chose this path however.
The spa I was working at are a bunch of turds. They decided to knock down two buildings, and build new ones, without permits. So, me being bottom of the totem pole was relegated to nothing...joy. After much consideration, and discussions, I quit. there. It was also killing my back.
So, moving to the clerical field is proving to be a challenge. I signed up with a temp agency, which has done nothing for me. I've been applying to any and every job I am qualified for except for retail, and massage. I have a feeling I might have to apply for those soon if nothing pans out.
I've had phone interviews and promises made, but nothing really materializes. I get so frustrated. Hubby's job is now permanent, and he's got a raise, and he got his car situation fixed.
I swear I neglect you guys. Sorry about that. Nothing else really all that exciting going on. I've started to play a very addicting game on Facebook called Ghosts of Mistwood. I'm on level 23 of 29, so maybe once I finish it, I'll start writing again :)
That's it for me, unless you want to hear emotional rants about how much I miss Orange County and Disneyland...
