Woo-hoo, take three! (and other stuff)

I had my interview today. It went REALLY good! First I was interviewed by one girl, who gave me the initial green light to be interviewed by someone higher up, who gave me the green light to finish the process with a background check. So as long as I pass the background check I'll start on July 18th. (haha, who are we kidding... I'll be starting on July 18th) :-D

As for the work program (S.C.O.P.E.) I'm not happy with the type of work we're doing (packaging Q-Tips for sale at Target and CVS and packing them in baggies for homeless shelters) I'm easily advancing there. In the beginning, you start off counting and packing the Q-Tips. Then, if you take initiative, you move to weighing the packed Q-Tips, and then finally to sealing the packs which then are put into boxes for shipping. In the 4 days I've been there (not counting orientation) I'm already sealing the packages. Fun, right?

Here are some of the things I've been doing at the Job Center (Thurs, Fri, Mon, and today)

So hopefully glad that I'll be leaving for my job soon!

Also, Little I is not adjusting to going back to daycare very easily. He cries every time I drop him off, and runs to me crying when I pick him up. It's wearing on me, and according to my mom, I'm "spoiling" him now. By spoiling, she must mean the constant holding, cuddling, nursing and responding to his every need like normal. Oh, wait--I did let him have an Oreo as a part of his bedtime snack. Uh-oh, he's spoiled.


Well, it's late and I'm tired and I have to go back to the Job Center tomorrow morning... Goodnight!
