First week of July 2012

Still no luck on the job front. I keep revamping my resume and searching online listings.
The 4th was very nice.

Red, White, and Blue at the gray house.

Once again my DS did a great job in celebrating the holiday.
 

Volunteering at HPL went well.  
Downtown was nearly empty on July 5th.
I had lunch by the City Hall, overlooking Tranquility park

I tried out a new bus route, it gives me the bonus of adding in some walking time too. This is very good since I am having to deal with high blood sugars again. Actually got a few more rows done on the Boneyard shawl.

New year month 2

CURRENT GOOD NEWS
Well at least the general state of health is improving.

CURRENT BAD NEWS
 Last month I lost my dear car due to flooding streets. So a lot of dealing with the insurance company.

In medical insurance I am now dealing with a very $$$ plan, I owe my family so much in the ways they have helped out.

Job hunting is not very promising. This week while volunteering with a library system I sent in a resume to, I was told by one of the librarians told me the position I had applied for was being re-posted "because the administration was not happy with any of the applicants." It is hard to hear this second hand and in a rather tossed off manner. Topping off the job searching effort was getting an email from a different library informing me I was not being considered for a part time reference job. I just wish I could have been good enough to have been asked for at least one interview.

All in all not a cheerful start to 2012.
