so apparently the last time I updated was January 21st, and that wasn't even a real update, but an H50 fic rec.
Not much new going on with me. Been at the job for almost 9 and a half months. So much freakin' turn over. I know my time there is even more limited than the temporary status of the job. I've basically gotten two "warnings" that my production levels are too low - once from an on-site supervisor and the second time from the temp agency manager handling my assignment. Part of me wants to make it to a year because it'll look good on my resume, but I think at this point, 9 months will also look good, especially after being unemployed for nearly 2 years. I just desperately need something permanent and that would allow for me to get a car and my own place (though I wouldn't pass up having a roommate because I don't think I'd do well complately on my own). And my work days have changed (this happened shortly after Easter). I now have Sunday and Monday as my off days. I've enjoyed being able to go back to church on Sundays. Lately, though, we've been doing 6 days and 10 hours a day so I haven't had a Monday off since the schedule change. But then Tuesday that changed again when the 6th day and OT was cancelled. This coming Monday will be my first one off since April 4th!
Still living with my sister. Been giving her money for rent since February (and getting reciepts). There are good and bad moments with being here. The bad only really happen when my niece and nephew get into fights/arguments with her about their lack of jobs and/or them being in school because she then turns it around on me by either finding something else I need to help contribute to or she'll ask about how my job search is going or if I've found an apartment. As much as I want her to tell her to back the fuck off, I can't. I'm basically at her mercy with no place else to go...so I nod along and then vent online. But mostly I keep it inside and deal with the stress induced hives as a result.
I'm back in school! I applied and registered at the community college down the street from me. My class starts on Monday and is 8 weeks long. I've been looking forward to this for 3 months! Thankfully the supervisor at work approved my modified schedule (5:30am-12:30pm) on the days I have class (Tuesday-Thursday; Monday is my day off)
Hmm whatelse...My mom. I'm going to see her soon! She'll be coming out here July 26th to the 2nd week in August, I beleieve...however 1 week she and my sister will be in Hawaii on the trip that would have been my sister's honeymoon. We're going to spend the time that's she's actually IN California to clean out the storage unit and hopefully consoldate everything into 1 unit and save us money.
I guess that's everything. No telling when I'll update again. Hopefully it won't be another 21 weeks between updates!
