more on the work front

This is just a quick entry to say hello. We've got to buy a cellphone for Bill today, just so that I can contact him when he's at work. We're also making copies of Bill's resume so that tomorrow, he can start applying for a new job.

Then I have to start looking for another part time job in earnest. Lately I've been waiting for the job to come to me, but then again we've been so busy! With the people visiting and the birthdays and Mother's days, housework and yardwork, there doesn't seem like there is enough to time to work another job, but there must be something.

Thank goodness for GST Rebates! Since we hadn't filed our taxes for two years, we'll be getting it all at once, which will pay for Em's summer camp and a swimming pass for the sports centre across the road. As long as we can keep her busy, that's half the battle!

Have a nice Sunday.

  1. Good luck to both of you on the job front. If I were to lose mine, I would likely hit the road and become a bum.

  5. You begin to miss having a quiet day after a while, don't you? Good luck with the phone and the job hunting.

  6. Good luck with the job hunting...I know we depend on our income tax return every year. This year we put it straight into the bank for a rainy day which we hope doesn't come...Shaune's a sales guy - not the best place to be in this recession!

  7. It's so nice when the kids grow up, move out, support themselves (financially) and suddenly you realize how dad-burned much you actually spent raising them. SHEESH it takes more than a village to raise a child (it takes a whole lotta DOUGH).
