Woohoot Wednesday

Well it's Thursday but never mind.

1. The interview went well I think. I believe I answered all the questions coherently! So we shall see. They did interview one other person that I know of. C'est la vie. I'm kind of over stressing about it actually. It was a strange situation being interviewed when I've been here 8 years or so. I think it was good for at least 2 of the interviewers to actually see my CV and have the opportunity to get a better understanding of what I've done. Trying to thicken my skin in case I'm not successful.

2. DS went to the Tip Top ice cream factory yesterday and apparently enjoyed all the machines. But the highlight of his day was when the tow truck came to take Nan's car to the mechanic and he got to press the control button to winch it onto the truck. Oh boy! He spent the evening playing with a complicated Mobilo construction that had a ramp, wheels, winch and a remote control that I had to keep pressing to make the "car" go up the ramp.

3. I've discovered where the shower is at work, so tonight I'm pumping up the bike tires. I am so unimpressed by the bus service this week I'm going back to the bike. At least I can rely on me to get me to work on time. I have no doubt that DD will like being propelled along by Mummy to daycare!

4. Tomorrow is Friday which means the SBO cybercrop, friend Nel coming to play with stamps etc while I crop, and the weekend! Are you coming to the crop? I'm curious to know what is happening with the DT there.

5. My Hero Arts clear stamps and my Stampin' Up stuff arrived. :-) Want. to. play.

QOTD: what do you think angels look like?
Just curious. The Bible doesn't really describe what they look like. Just what the reaction of people to seeing them which is one of awe. So they must be awe inspiring. Anyway, angels... an interesting study.

Woo Hoot Wednesday

Kia ora! (It's Maori Language Week.)







Man this week is going fast. And it's getting faster!

1. My big woo hoot is that I have a JOB! Yay!!!!

It isn't with the people who interviewed me last week. No. I think that one is a dead loss because I've not heard from them via phone. Waiting on the cowardly letter from them.

But my old work rang with a position they need to fill asap. I'll be starting Monday! EEK! But it will be doing stuff I know how to do, and the kind of thing I like best. It is full time - slightly scary but part time work is so hard to find. I will have to apply for the position when it is advertised, but this time I will be the internal applicant. So I am taking a chance on that one, but I hope it is going to be worth my while.

It will be just down the road at our satellite campus so I shan't have to say Te kino hoki o te whaiwhai waka i t[e]nei ata! - The traffic was terrible this morning. Heh heh.

Funnily enough the day care had a space for DD immediately so things are slotting into place rather well. *wherefore did ye doubt o ye of little faith* I went and paid the deposit for her and she didn't want to leave, so that is a good sign. We'll spend some of tomorrow and Friday there as well.

I have no idea how this is going to all work but I'm trying to go with the flow. One thing for sure is that we will be slightly more comfortable financially which is a good thing. Maybe my car will be able to have a service at last... it hasn't had one for oh, say, 2 years. I'll bet if cars could talk it would be woo hooting about that one.

2. The crop on Saturday! Looking forward to it. Got a few more page kits sorted. Plus reprinted some of the badly aged colour photos of my MIL's for an 8x8 album I'm doing for her. Love it how PS can change the colour cast. The B&W ones are still good, so I will use those originals even though it means I won't be able to fit many on a page. I don't like to crop them you see.. my librarian/archivist tendencies coming through. But the reprints I did I have no compunction about cropping.

So many things to remember before we leave on Saturday but hopefully I won't forget anything essential.
