Unemployed Log – Day 1
6:45 am: Awakened by fearless and rude mosquito buzzing and biting my face. Noticed numerous welts on baby’s face and arm. Enraged, I located guilty insect and annihilated it! with the nearest object within reach — Stinky Bear’s cousin — Not So Fresh Frank …
7:00 – 7:15 am: Remained awake — unable to fall asleep after my victory — due to unnatural fear of defeated mosquito’s friends’ possible retaliatory efforts …
10:30 am: Arrive back home after dropping baby off at school. I create “Unemployment Survival Kit” which consists of 13oz jar of Nutella, entire loaf of whole wheat bread, family size pack of Oreo cookies, remote control and juice.
10:45 am: Cursed my former employers and wished them an awful first day without me …
10:50 am: Freaked out over possible “bad karma” backlash and retracted previous curse on my former employers. Followed with some serious “karma damage control” by wishing them well …
3:30 pm: Watched all my TiVo’d shows, as well as some of the baby’s …
3:35 pm: Having depleted most of the “Unemployed Survival Kit”, decided to clean living-room …
3:36 pm: Overwhelmed by large size of the livingroom and even larger size of livingroom mess, decided to replenish “Unemployed Survival Kit”‘s resources, instead …
4 pm: Entertained myself by eating yet another Nutella sandwich w/ a side of Oreo’s while, simultaneously, counting various dog hair tumbleweeds, Cookie shed throughout the day …
4:16 pm: Finished sandwich … followed by biting off what’s left of fingernails … and surrounding skin …
4:30 pm: Baby’s home! Time for the Powerpuff Girl’s marathon …
Your back writing! I just checked in on your blog yesterday and hadn’t seen a post since Sept~
And your unemployed……
Sorry to hear that, although, your day sounds sorta nice and peaceful. Save some oreos for tomorrow.
Just one question! You arrived back from the daycare at 10:30 a.m.
Does that mean he arrived at school after 10:00 a.m. LOL!
Ah sweetie, sorry to hear your unemployed. Here’s to hoping something else comes up soon. Sending positive vibes your way! Boston Creme sandwiches work wonders when I’m down (PB and Marshmallow Creme). (Hugs)Indigo
Thank you, Ladies! I should have more time to write now.
Des, I got him there on time but had a meeting with the teacher.
Sorry about the unemployed thing
Sucks!!!! Glad that your back posting! BTW-I love Nutella!brings me child memories.
OOH! I had a meeting with her this morning!
I ate my own jar of Nutella after I lost my job. Well, I threw it away after emptying two thirds of the jar in 2 days. I have no self control with that stuff. (Try dipping pretzels into it… heaven)
I have a new game plan and am optimistic for the first time in weeks. Of course I still need to find a job, but I’m searching every day. In the meantime I’ve found something that I think will help my sanity… putting the kids in part time day care and working on my novel. Just got the story idea last night while trying to sleep.
So stay optimistic. It probably happened for a reason. You know, one of those cosmic universe things. Let me know if you need anything…
