Holly’s Happenings

I found out the other day just how productive I could be filling out job applications online. It’s funny though, I must have filled out 15-20 job applications in person over the summer and never got a call from a single one. But the other day I filled out about 8-10 online and less than 24 hours later had a phone call from one of them, offering an interview!

What I like most about the job that I’m interviewing for today is the fact that it’s a job doing something I LOVE doing! What is is for, you ask? I’m interviewing for a position as a baker. Can you say YUMMY?? LOL And it’s in a place that I LOVE LOVE LOVE to eat at as well, double bonus!!!

I’ve gotten my clothes for the interview ironed and laid out, about the only thing left to do is use my most current acne treatment, grab a shower and get ready. But it’s a little less than 3 hours until the interview, so it’s too early to start getting ready yet. I know I should start early though because I’m going to make an attempt to do something with my hair to make it look decent. It’s at one of those REALLY fugly growing out stages and there’s not much that can be done with it without putting some major effort into it, which totally is not me….LOL! But I’m totally sick of having short hair again, so it’s growing out again even if it means I have to do fuss with it daily!

But OMG, I’m a freaking nervous wreck! Honestly, the last job interview I went on was over 5 years ago! The most recent job I held that wasn’t working from home was one that was offered to me by a neighbor, so there was no interviewing for that job…LOL! But he moved shop at the end of the year and no longer needed me since he was going to run the office part of it from his home. But we’re in a financial position right now where one of us needed to find a job yesterday! So I’ve been filling out applications and sending my resume out to as many places as I can find to apply online.

Speaking of finances, I’d like to point out my new page here on the site. I know that the economy is the pits for EVERYONE right now, that I’m not alone with what I’m going through financially, but I’m in a bit of a “pickle” right now, so I’m reaching out to you all for help. My new page is title Donations and yes, that’s exactly what it’s about. The biggest reason I’m filling out applications and sending out resumes online is simply because I’m about as broke as you can be. If I do manage to get this job today I’m then left trying to figure out how I’ll get enough gas to keep me going back and forth to work. Besides that I have the fees for my site(s) coming due. I’m sorry to ask, but if you could help me out a bit, I’d really appreciate it!
