      I figured you might need it. My hubby worked at Wal-Mart for awhile... it didn't end well.

      I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
      It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
      Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

        A little while ago, Wal-Mart called. I report for orientation tomorrow morning. That makes me smile.
        Literally been there myself... I have worked for worse places, keep in mind they don't hold hard an fast to that 6 months till a raise and promotion stuff, if you are competent and have basic addition skills (uncommon in wal-mart) you may not get stuck forever. Don't let it destroy you, Wal-mart won't be where you are stuck forever, let it be what it is.









        On a similar note, I got accepted for a job too! The store doesn't open until Feb 20th, but i start training and orientation on the 12th so Yay! Everyone-ish is getting employed again!

            The jobsite that I've been drilling for the last couple weeks got rained out this week.

            Today was the first day this week that I was able to even TRY to pull on-site with a drill-truck.

            It was so muddy that I got stuck twice in the first hour that I was on-site.

            Regardless, The sun came out, and dried up the ground, and I had my most productive day, thus far, on this job.

            We bid this job, hoping to be able to drill 7 holes per day.

            Today... in the mud... after getting my drill-rig stuck in the mud TWICE... I drilled 14 holes.

            What has 2 thumbs, and is a badass?

            THIS GUY!!!!!

                  I wish I could have babies. :P

                  Oh well. Tonight I have red wine and bacon and I don't care of I may be kicked out on the street (again) in a month. Music & wine & memories fix everything (mostly).

                                Philip (who by now is my fiance, I dunno if I ever mentioned) is coming to visit me for nine days next month. I'll still have to work during his visit, but still,
