Lilypie Waiting to Adopt tickers

3.22.2009

Well I am sorry to say that this week was not as interesting as the last. But it has been more frustrating. I have not heard from the job interview. They said I would receive a phone call by Monday for a second interview or if I didn't get the second interview, then I would get a letter in the mail, but I have received neither. So I am assuming that I did not get the job, but I'd like to get the letter they promised. One thought that someone gave me, was that it is possible that they only interview for legal purposes and had people in mind within their system to promote. This is really frustrating for a few reasons:
# 1 - I was really excited about the possibility of this job, but now it has been dashed into the
ground - LOL hahahaha
# 2 - Then it was a complete waste of my time and theirs
# 3 - I may have missed other jobs in which I did not apply for because I was waiting on them.

Well I guess I can just carry on with my life.

It has also been frustating b/c I have been very slow at getting our house unpacked - so this week I have got to get on the ball. It is also frustrating for me with this new house - because I think I should have all the updated new house items to decorate with or to use. I do not need these things, I just think that I do. For some reason I have begun to think that everything has to match. What is this about???
It was a little easier when we had less and less space - (amazingly enough). And when we were in an area where material looks and things did not seem to be a competition, well at least for me anyways. Now that we have moved, I kinda feel like I am having this secret competition with other houses to see whose looks to the best. Where is this pride coming from!?!?! AH! I get so annoyed with myself. God has amazingly blessed us with a house, in the first place, in a time when it's hard to buy a house, it's been remodeled a bit on the inside, we have 6 acres of land with tons of trees, and it has a red front and side door - this house was made for us. But I keep thinking I need "more things". I have had to work on this each day. It is a struggle - although I haven't bought anything extra - but I keep wanting it. What is the deal???

I have been reading Set-Apart Feminity by Leslie Ludy.
Oh, I have to go, church is out and Brent and I are hungry and ready to eat....so I will finish this later....

Girlie, I completely understand what you are saying about the job!! When I worked in HR We would have to set up interviews even though they already new who they were going to hire!! I hated that-I wanted to tell the people applying, don't hold your breath, they are just doing this so they don't get into trouble-go look for another job! But I couldn't say that to them!
And I also understand about the house thing!When we moved into our house, since it was new, I just HAD to have all new things!! HA HA! We used what we had and I love it and we aren't in the debt we would have been after buying all new things:)
I want to see more pictures of the house:)
Also-I have this thing with red doors too!! One day we will have one:)Love You!!

Call the job and let them know you are still interested but haven't heard from them. Ask if the position has been filled, that you were curious where you stood since you had received neither a call nor a letter as promised. What do you have to lose at this point? Sometimes you just have to remind prospective employers. And it makes them remember you!
