Melaleuca, School and Job

Well, last night after passing my placement test after 3 tries!!!! I started my college algebra class, only to realize right away that I was in WAY over my head and I have to drop it! What a waste of time...and kind of embarrassing too I guess. Though, the good news is as long as I drop it by Monday, I don't have to pay for it. Another good thing is it turns out...it wasn't even nessessary! (Gee thanks academic couselor for letting me know sooner *sarcasm). Anyway, the only reason I was taking it here on campus was because it is cheapter than GCU and I thought I would do better in a classroom setting for math. Well, the class I signed up for was MA 103 and my couselor told me yesterday that anything over a MA100 is good enough. So I will just take MA 102 next semester and transfer it ove and it will be fine. But like I said before...what a waste of time! I had an interview with the kids principal yesterday also and it looks like I've got a job! Yay! Well, it isn't much. They have all the staff members they need but they are putting me on the list as a sub. Not a subsitute teacher but like a substitute assistant. They have teachers in the young classes and in the special ed classes. Then helping those teachers are Educational Assistants who work full time. I am a substitute for them. Wow, the more I explain it the worse it sounds lol. But anyway, I am excited to be getting anything! Also I have high hopes for a full time summer job at the Youth Center on Hickam. I really, REALLY hope and pray I get it. Sydnee and Collin will be able to go with me everyday and participate in the programs for free. The do all kinds of cool stuff!! Its like camp! I really hope I get the job. The interview went well and I called to check on my status and they said that the people have been chosen but they weren't allowed to say anything, someone will contact me if I got the job. Does that sound good or bad??? I'm qualified and like I said, I really thought the interview went well. So now I am just waiting for that phone call. Something else I am excited about is I have been a member of Melaleuca Wellness Company for about a month now. I just placed my second order and so far I like all the products. Mike "allowed" me to do it on a trial basis just to see how it goes, if its worth it and so on. So I have until around September to convince him that this stuff is great! :) He isn't easy to convince. Well, lots have been going on here so I better get going to it. Did I mention my A/C is out in the van? Oh well, that is for another blog post. Praise the Lord we have a jeep. Hey, who needs A/C when you can drive around with no doors or walls?

I wanted to share this with you Tori but I didn't see an option to post it on your blog.

Beautiful Day

It is a gorgeous day here in Hawaii this morning! I am looking forward to going to Borders to take advantage of their going out of business sale with my friends Shanna and Lynette. Should be fun!
I had another interview yesterday, it went well and it looks like something I would really enjoy doing. But I am hoping to get a position at the kids school instead. The principal said they should have something for me but first I have to fill out the application, do background and finger print check, TB shot etc. This application they gave me is like 20 pages long! I'm pretty sure I have a summer job lined up from another interview also...I sure hope so anyway, they havn't called me back. It is at the CDC and it is full time but they allow my kids to join in on the program for free. So at least I know they will be close to me. They go swimming, and do like 3 field trips a week! It sounds like camp! I also finished a 10 page scholarship application yesterday so pray that something turns up. :)

My Favorite Author

Hi, my favorite author, Francine Rivers is doing a free offer! I posted a link on my FB page that has all the details. :) Also, Borders is going out of business...booo....but I am for sure going to be taking advantage of the sales that will be going on soon! We have a few Borders stores here and 2 are pretty close to me. Yay!

Well, I gave up P90X cause my "hold me accountable friend" moved away and because that stuff is TOUGH!!!! I do run occassionally, in fact I actually pulled my lazy bum out of bed at 5:30am 2 days ago and ran a couple miles. GO mE! I'm doing the GAR again this year too (but I'm walking it with a friend instead of running it this time...gonna take FOR EVER!)

I think I may need to get a job soon but I am not really sure where to begin. I have been taking classes with GCU for a year now and so far my classes have been paid for by MYCAA but now that is no more and though I have applied for several scholarships, they are not going to go very far even if I DO get them. I do not want to be a burden on my husband but on the flip side, I want to be available to him if he needs me during the day and for my kids if their school needs me and I want to be home in the afternoons when they get home and I can't work Sundays. So I thought a part time day job would help but my schedule really slims things. I previously had done FCC but that just isn't going to work for me now. I am a back up provider but I rarely get calls. I want to continue with my degree but I don't want my husband to spend a ton of money (loans are an absolute NO). What to do what to do?? I would love to work at a library (do you need a degree to stack books????) or at my kids school.

p90x

Me and the family had a great 4th of July weekend with friends. Saw Smash Mouth and watched fireworks then played games with friends. Hope everyone else had fun also.

Recently a friend and I have been doing P90X together. Well, not together but we do it and then text one another in order to hold the other accountable. It is SOooo Hard!!! Today I did legs and back but I was too tired to do the ab ripper x. The workout is great but it is pretty long so I have to make sure I have plenty of time. Hopfully one day I will be able to do pull ups without a chair! Anyone else doing p90x??
