My Weight Tracker Familia Mendoza: UPS AND DOWNS

UPS AND DOWNS



Last Friday I thought I had finally escaped my job at Counterdrug. I got a call from the Med Detachment (where I'm going to apply for a full time job in October) and they said they had work until the end of December and asked if I wanted it. This would give me the chance to learn everything for the job I am applying for so I could be ahead of everyone else that applies. I said, heck yeah I want it so I was so excited about it and I have a good feeling that I will be hired on permanantely in Oct anyways because I'm learning new things and I know of a few people that want me in that job because they know I will do well at it. Anyways, come to find out, this Lieutenant said it was the same type of work I do now when it's really a technician job so that means a lot less pay and no medical benefits. That isn't a good idea as I have a family to support. Now I'm stuck at Counterdrug until at least October. The good thing is this gives me time to prepare for the interview and update the resume and all that. Everyone who prays out there, please pray for me that I can do well in the interview and get this job.
Other than that, the fair is going on so we might check it out this weekend. Tomorrow grandma Rosa and family are coming to Boise so we are going to picnic by the river and all go watch Juan's last hockey game of the season. The weather is finally cooling down around here so it finally feels pretty good outside.
I guess my dad caught a 200 lb halibut during his fishing trip in Alaska. I expect to get a little taste of some of that fish. I'm sure he's having a blast and relieving some stress. Must be nice!

What cute pictures. He sure does have big eyes. Too bad about the job. I hope you get the new job in October because your old one sounds like a bunch of crap. Have fun at Juan's game!

I think those eyes are what they used to call "bedroom eyes" back in the day... Meaning that with one look you could get someone to do whatever you wanted. Look out mama!
Bummer about the job, but let's hope for the best when the actual position opens. The fact that they called you about it is a good sign though eh?
Last hockey game? Isn't winter comeing up and the "real" season? I'm SO confused (but we won't blame that on hockey:0)
