Ok, the sad truth finally came out!

Yesterday I called work  again and asked to speak to Janet. She was in a meeting and I was promised that she would call back later. I waited and waited...to no avail. So I called back today and got her on the phone. And finally she gave me the truth! According to some new law or new policy they have to wait 3 months until they offer a new contract! So they can't offer me one before November 19th!!! I was like...WTF? 

Really, I 'exercised' my ass off to get over the Bell's palsey and in fact would have been ready to work again starting September but then she had the excuse work was slow and I could start again in October. And now this crap :(  I told her I was very disappointed and would have liked to know this earlier so I could actively have searched for another job.

Because that's what I'm gonna do. I found a job opening for Customer Service at a big seed company in Enkhuizen, where Andrea lives and I am gonna apply to that. Might I get the job I'd be killing 2 birds with 1 stone because my son finally gets his appartment back and well, I'd be having a job :')

In the meantime money is really tight since Social Services deducted the little money I made from this month's allowance and my scooter finally decided to...well...kinda die on me. So I had to order the exhaust. Luckily that cost quite a bit less than expected and the shipping and handling was even for free since my order was over a certain amount of Euros.

On a (much) happier note... Dan and I are planning our next vacation. It is supposed to be from April 29th until May 13th 2012. Of course I keep saying to him: IF I have a job because otherwise there is no way in Hell I can even buy me a ticket to the States. But he's being totally positive and even made some reservations already :p I wish I could be as positive as he is...but finding a job is about the hardest thing I have done EVER. Of course the economy and my age aren't helping either.

Last week I put away all my summer clothes for the winter. The weather was really sucky, cold and wet so it seemed a good time to do so. But of course (?) this week the weather is absolutely lovely! We seem to finally get the summer we never had this year :p (Oh wait I keep on forgetting those 2 weeks in April ;) ) Today it's even 26C/79F! And all this week and next week temperatures are gonna be in the 20C/70F's... Oh well, I have some 'wear-through' clothes handy and of course the boxes are only on top of the wardrobes so access is easy enough ;)

Anyway dear readers, I have stuff to do, think up a nice application letter for the Customer Service job and get that on it's way! And I really refuse to let anything of what happened to me bring me down!

So have a great day y'all, speak to you soon again!

Hugz, Anna
