A Son's Disappointment

Today is Sunday, November 22 and it is one week and one day after my son's 9th birthday, and he still did not recieve anything from his father for his birthday. He was hurt, sad and said that his dad had lied to him about sending him money for his bithday. Which he did. His father had called to tell me that he accidentally mailed the birthday card to himself and had to remail it, well that was on a Friday, November 13 and my son should have gotten it on Monday or Tuesday, but still no card. All week long my son went to the mailbox looking for that card and everyday he was disappointed and hurt. It just broke my heart to see his little face with that sad expression on it and tears building in his eyes. I can't believe I was stupid enough to believe his father was going to send him something and to tell him to look for it. I also played apart in my son's disappointment, but no more. When his father calls to tell me he sent our son something, I am going to keep it to myself until I see it with my own eyes and then I will tell him about it. I never want to see my son disappointed like that again as long as I can help it.

Recovering From My Son's Birthday!

Today is November 16, 2009, just two days after my son's birthday party and let me tell you that I am still a little tired from it. I didn't know how much hosting a child's birthday party can take out of you. I had to to stay in on Sunday and rest, because I was so tired and my feet hurt from standing and walking around so much I just needed a day off. I can say that the party went well without any problems, even though I invited ten children to the party and only five of them showed up for it. I was kind of disappointed, but my son was happy and that is all that matters for me. I was happy that he had a good time and he was happy with his party. It really doesn't take much to make my son happy, but I just wanted his 9th birthday to be special for him and I guess I did that for him on Saturday. 

If I have to say so myself I think I through a pretty good party for my son's birthday on Saturday. The theme of the party was Bakugan Battle Brawlers, because that is what my son is into now. I had the tablecloth, cups, plates. napkins all of it with Bakugan on it, plus his cake which was cupcake cake of 24 was decorated in the same theme of Bakugan. Also at the party I served pizza, chips, soda, and ice cream. And each child went home with a goody bag of candy and toys. So I say  the party went all right for the two hours I hosted it. Yes, it was alot to clean up, but I had my mother to help me with the clean up duty. So I guessed I lucked out there. Now that the party is over, I am happy and now thinking about what I do for his 10th birthday next year.

Still Looking For A Job

Well, today is Thursday, November 12, just two days before my son's nineth birthday and one day after T-Mobile was to contact me to let me know of I got the job or not. Can you guess what happen with the job? Well, let me tell you that I was not contacted by T-Mobile on Wednesday, so therefore I did not get the job. Am I upset, yeah a little but I had prepared myself for not getting the job just in case, so I wouldn't mope around my home depress and all. I look at as this was not the right job for me, so leads me open to recieve and find the right job and career for me. So I havewent back to the drawingboard and filling out applications, calling around to see who is hiring for the holidays and searching the web for jobs. I have posted my resume on three job finding sites, they are HotJobs.com, CareerBuilders.com and BetterJobsUpState, and hoping my luck will change with them. But I have made up mind that I am not going to let this weak job market get me depress and keep me down any longer. I am going to have faith that I am going to find a good job that will let me live and take of my son the way I want to. I am going to keep my head up and keep looking toward the future, because I know one day my dreams and prayers will be come true.

Nervous About An Interview

Today is Thursday, November 5, 2009 and I have an interview today at a T- Mobile retail store. I know that it's a seasonal job that want want last long, but it is a job. I am just so happy that I was called in for an interview and I hope that I do get the job today or called back for a second interview. I am a realist so, I want get my hopes up to far, but I believe my luck is beginning to change for the better. It has been a long time since, I have been called in for an interview or even had a good outlook on getting a job in these last few years. So here I go today out into the working world to try and land me a job today. I am so nervous today about this interview because, like I said it's been awhile and I don't know much about cell phone technology, but I am a quick learning. I am going to look up some information about T- Mobile before I go to my interview so, I will have a little knowledge about the company. Well, let me get off this blog, so I can get ready for this interview this morning. Wish me luck today.
