Scratch that

Well, it's over! My humongous week filled with school, work, consignment sales, and tiredness! Here is an overview:

School - Alpha likes her new teacher. Today they read Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse. We saw the play last summer at a rep theater here. She loves it! I hope she begins to make some new friends next week.

Consignment sales - I got lots of cute clothes! I'm also keeping track of my sales online. I haven't yet broken even, but I'm going to come close. This time, I shopped the half-price sale. I kept getting nice things back of mine that didn't sell. So I got smart and figured out there must still be tons of bargains on half-price day. I went tonight and got more stuff!

Work - Well, it wasn't fun while it lasted. I enjoy working, talking with adults, and having a sense of purpose. I don't enjoy mindless data entry. However, that's no longer a concern because I got a call from Accountemps tonight saying that the assignment had been discontinued. So they will start looking for me another job on Monday. I am equally relieved and saddened. I did NOT like the commute, not seeing my girls, or getting home at 6:00. However, I was liking the thought of getting paid, and I still need the hours for my license.

Tiredness - Ugh. I think I could sleep for 24 hours straight. I'm headed to bed as soon as I'm done typing here. I have not worked this much in a long time.

I'm hoping I can get an assignment in town next time. Full time wouldn't be quite so much the burden it is if I can leave and only drive 15 minutes instead of 45.

Ok. Bedtime. I don't think I've ever been more glad that tomorrow is Saturday!
