That is all Teresa and I want to hear. Yes. There has been a lot of no’s coming our way. No, we don’t want you to work with us here at our school. No, we don’t think you are good enough to work at Starbucks. No, we don’t have any work for you this week. No, You were not our top pick. No, we don’t think your computer skills are good enough.

We are getting tired of these No’s. they are weighing on us. Heavily. The stress is building, and even Olive can feel it. Can we get just one Yes? Preferably in a place that will work for both of us? Please?

Our presence on this site has been missing. I apologize for that. Winter came, and we became home bodies, the apartment got really cold, my job ended and the job hunt began. We spent most of the Winter huddled around heaters, or under blankets. Our apartment really isn’t made for cold weather, it has drafts everywhere, and I imagine no insulation. Now that it is warmer out, things are much better. The A/C’s do a better job of cooling the apartment than the heaters do of heating it.

My job at Biltmore ended and I started the search for a job. Sadly none really showed themselves for a while. I have been hemorrhaging money like crazy, and applying to jobs like mad. I eventually found one job, but the hours are not proving to be very helpful, so I started looking for another job and found it at Target. That job only lasted two days though because the job caused my forearms to hurt like crazy, putting me out of commission for just under a week. I have since found another job at a local movie theater, Cinemark. This job is fine, it just has low pay, and I am one of the oldest people working as an usher. It’s kind of sad really.

Now we are starting to think about where we will be off to next. Teresa has been applying to jobs all over the country, and has had several interviews. So far we have three prospects: Georgia, Rhode Island, and Washington state. Once we know where we are heading I will start bombarding the locals with resumes, and we will make plans for the move. All of that is exciting.  I know that I will be happy to get out of Texas. It isn’t a bad place, just not my place.

I hope to be updating here more, I just need to give myself more time to do it, and that is one of my plans, better time management. So, check back here a little more often for more updates on us.

Say hello to Olive, a new addition to the house. You can find more about Olive, here.

I have yet to have a miracle happen to me near this place. I haven’t given up hope yet.

On MLK Jr. day Teresa and I went to play some disc golf in Research Park. It was a glorious day outside. This was our first time in the park, and I must say that despite the course looking a little confusing at first, we had a good time. Well, we had a good time up until I lost a disc in the pond. Damn you water hazards! Oh well, now I just have to buy another disc.
