Well the interview is over...they said it was more of a screening interview..they asked me about 5 or 6 questions and talked ab out my student teaching and that was it...they will call if interested for a 2nd interview..whew!!

I have my fingers crossed for a 2nd interview. Now that you have the first one done, you'll feel better next time.

Well, I just phoned the foster mom who has our kitty. The first number they gave me is disconnected. I did get through on what I am guessing is her cell phone so I left her a message. This is going to irritate me.

If we had the kitty here I would have been on the phone to our vet when they opened this morning at 8 AM and scheduled her spay. The kitty is old enough to be spayed but the foster just hasn't taken her yet. Hello? Shouldn't that be a pretty high priority? Isn't that her duty as the foster? I would think getting things completed that are necessary for the kitty to be adoptable would be part of the foster agreement. Especially since we already PAID for the kitty and they refuse to allow us to arrange her surgery! Then again they probably have so many animals that they will allow anybody who asks to be a foster, even if they don't stick to the rules.

Really I think the foster should have called ME, and I think she should have called me YESTERDAY to assure me that the kitty would be spayed immediately and turned over to us ASAP. I have never been a foster for a shelter, but it seems to me that asking someone to pay for a pet and then having no communication as to when the pet will be able to go home is a very poor business practice. There isn't an actual "shelter", it is all foster homes who have mobile adoptions at PetsMart on weekends, so there isn't a facility to complain to, just an e-mail address. So we shall see.

I hope that you hear back soon and that the kitty is ready to be yours soon. If she is old enough to be spayed, and you have already paid, I don't know what the hold up could be!

Tell Laura congratulations!

Glad to hear Matthew is feeling better!

We had a good time in Albany, and both of Laura's routines qualified for Regionals!!! That means we'll be in Hamden, CT for my birthday weekend. From there, I hope at least one routine can head to Nationals at Miami University in Oxford, OH. Sorry, Anne Marie, the decision was made to skip the Long Island meet this year. It falls on the same weekend as try-outs for Empire State Games, and there were a few other conflicts.

Matthew is finally feeling well enough to be in school. He still has a horrible, hacking cough and some congestion, but the fever is gone and he can stay upright.

Today I went to the funeral for the mother of a friend of mine. She died in her sleep last Thursday unexpectedly. It was so sad.

Good thoughts for your grandma.

okay an update on grandma.

It is not bone cancer. But they found a pretty good size mass on her liver. she had the biopsy this morning. we will have to wait a few days for the results. Continue to pray that it will not be cancer. TIA

Welcome back, Tammi! I haven't quite made it back your post, but I did see your adorable children in a quote. I hope that the meeting went well today.

I'm glad it's over for you and you can breathe a sigh of relief. I'm hoping you get the 2nd interview!

 

[Tammi67]

I'm glad that you have the first one under your belt. Future ones will be much easier. I'm sorry that you found out this was just a preliminary interview, but I hope it turns into a job interview soon.


I've had a productive morning. I paid bills, made shirts, picked up a bit and I'm on the third load of laundry. I'm working at 5 so I am hoping to get more done before then. I would really like to lay out in the sun, but I must keep my priorities straight and get some things done around here. We also walked to the post office this morning and I received our new Mickey scrapbook and some of the page protectors The ebay seller is supposed to mail the rest this week as they were on backorder I guess his feedback will have to wait until I receive the rest.

Deb

Deb - do you have a link to the scrapbook you ordered? I would love to see what it looks like.

One more night and I am off for 12!




Oh, and I got my MNSSHP tickets today!

 

[Tammi67]

I was suppose to work today, but I am home with Riley. The school called & said he did not look to good. So we are home now & Riley is sleeping. He said his head is pounding & he is cold. I hope whatever it is goes away quickly!

I hope it passes quickly and doesn't progress into something worse.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Jennifer, feel better soon.

 

[Pooh67_68]
