interviews

I went on my second interview today and I am so not good at them! As I was leaving I thought of a million better ways to answer the questions that were asked! Just look at my resume don't ask me questions!!! It was for Wildlife and Fisheries working with their enforcement agents and criminal records. I would LOVE to do this job but since I suck at interviews .... anyway I know better how to prepare for the next interview. I was caught off guard because there was 10 other people waiting to be interviewed. Then when you went in the room there was 3 men asking the questions. I blew one of the questions about purchasing - I said I did not have experience which is not true but I froze.I did correct myself but we will see how that goes. AHHH. oh well I can't change that interview I can just prepare better for the next one. Maybe my degree in criminology and my Navy history will help me on that one even if I could not speak up for myself.
Then I tripped on something in Katie's room and my foot is hurting so bad. I may have to go back to the Dr - it is the outside of my foot in the middle. hurts BAD!!
I have the kids cleaning their rooms for punishment for not listening to me! Jaxon is going to be upset he still has homework and he is wasting his time in his room. He will not get to play much today. He got his first F yesterday I was sooo mad because he did not follow direction. Pay attention and follow direction is that really too much to ask?
Why haven't I heard anything from these people - come on 3 hours is enough time!

still no job

it is funny each time I apply for a job they seem to post one I want more. I am still waiting on interviews from any of the jobs I posted, went on one last week. I have intention of taken the job but it was good practice. Why would I not take the job if offered - it is downtown so that would mean an hour drive each way with this awesome traffic.
The latest job I applied for is Wildlife and Fisheries. It is off perkins by Pennington so I have 2 ways of getting there. Depending on the hours the traffic should not be too bad. I have a friend who works there and said he would put in a good word for me - hopefully it will at least get me an interview!
Things are going alright around here. Getting into the swing of school, cub scouts and soccer. Cheer for Katie - I missed the girl scout sign up so hopefully I can still get her in????
Erik is living in Houma during the week and comes home on the weekends. The kids are doing alright with that. But we just found out he will not be home 2 weekends in a row thanks to travels to Texas and people from Texas coming here.... we will see how the kids handle that!
