The Christmas program this morning was just super cute and makes me feel nostalgic for Christmas coming. My daughter was on the top row and I’m glad because taking videos was a lot easier because I could actually see her. When they got done singing, the kids were walking off the stage and my daughter told her friend, “My Mom’s going to hug me” and it was just the most heartwarming moment!! I am so glad I just waited in the parking lot for it to start because I was able to get a spot right in the front and I came out where there would have been no parking.
The mechanic called about my car saying that he had taken things apart and discovered another part needing to be replaced and the bill would have been at least another $300 on top of the $500 they already wanted so I have since said no and I’m waiting for them to call and have me pick it up. They’re just going to charge me for some labor. I’ve reached out to a place we have here where they just charge for labor and I’m to drop it off on the 3rd. I was feeling pretty down over this earlier but I have some hope now and it’s going to be a lot more affordable not paying for labor, just gonna have to wait longer.
I also got called for an interview and it’s Monday at 10am. It’s at a place that I could see myself doing that type of job and it pays pretty decent. I told myself the other day that if I get a call for an interview, I’m going to go. I’m gonna see if I could start on the 3rd, after Christmas break so I don’t have to worry about childcare on top of starting a new job and I’m giving myself time to find sitters and back up sitters. I’m going to do everything in my power to never have to ask my Mom to watch my kid because my Dad is just hell bent that he’s going to be around my Mom every second of the day.
Just got the car from the shop. It was $168 which is a lot of money considering all the did was replace the plug wires and I’m still gonna be stuck paying at least another $300. It is what it is but driving it home from the shop was a really fun drive. It’s running even better than before even though it still needs work done. It’s just the reminder that I’m not ready to give up on it yet. I’m hoping I’ll get that job on Monday and start making a living so I can either afford car repairs or get into a newer car all together.
I really hope I get hired on Monday. I need to have a life outside of my house. The break from my kid is absolutely awesome but I really need something to do. I can’t stand sitting in this house by myself all day long anymore. I definitely worry about losing my health insurance but I hope the job may offer it. I just want to start living again.
I’m waking up with no voice again. I’m really getting sick of this. I have gotten to the point where I’m so tired of having no voice that I just start screaming and it actually comes back for a few minutes but if I don’t talk for awhile, it’s hard to get my voice to work. This is really fucking ridiculous and I’m already over cold and flu season! My daughter just finished 10 days of antibiotics for an ear infection and woke up last night and couldn’t stop coughing for about an hour so I’m sitting here worried that she’s at school with a sore throat.
