I've been busy around here.
I'm trying to keep up with laundry. I'm trying to finish up some very LATE baby gifts. I'm SEARCHING for jobs. I'm making rice krispie treats. I'm trying to figure out what's for dinner. I'm planning last-minute GS meetings. I got my first mammogram (the joy!). I signed up at a staffing agency. I'm freaking out cuz the printer ran out of color ink and WON'T print out a black/white resume for me to bring to the staffing agency (wth?). I'm looking into going back to school. I'm VAINLY searching for jobs. I'm stuck on filling out financial aid paper work cuz I don't know WHAT kind of degree or WHAT kind of major I want. I'm trying to visualize myself in certain jobs to see what might fit. I'm all nervous when taking the skills tests at the staffing agency, so my shaky fingers are making stupid mistakes. I'm freaking out about getting a phone call from the staffing agency about setting me up for a job interview with a job I don't have experience in, but the employer is still kinda interested since I have good Excel skills!
Yes, I've been busy.
The mammogram wasn't as bad as I feared. Just...uncomfortable. And not even the smushing part--the wrapping the REST of my body around the machine so the tech could force my girls into the right position part. I...can't even describe it. But it was quick and easy, and I was in and out in a half an hour. I didn't even have time to finish my complimentary (caffeine-free!) tea.
And...I'm intrigued about this job, and I am actually hopeful that my SKILLZ get me the position and yet then worried about actually getting the position and how the day care DRAMA will start YET AGAIN. Oh...I'm not ready for that.
Maybe I'll go bake some chocolate chip cookies and then try to eat my way out of this problem.
But hey! Here's some good news! Keith's car totally kicked butt at the Pinewood Derby last weekend! Second year in a row! And...he wasn't sick, so he actually got to participate! And...I need to go find the camera and see if I can manage to download pictures! (Wish me luck.)

Go you for getting a mammogram! YAY for Keith's car too!!
I don't think you should go back to school--I would consider that retreating. I think any difficulty you're having now is a sign of the times. I think school will take your money and further complicate your life (and lives). I think you have all the resources you need, but your confidence is somewhat shaken from getting wacked twice, which had everything to do with the economy and not much to do with you.
