I have an interview tomorrow afternoon. Sounds like a decent place to work, but the pay is a bit low. See if they'll be willing to up it a few bucks per hour.

Some more awesome news. As you know, I didn't have insurance during the 3 ER trips. They knew I didn't have insurance, and wasn't working, so they wrote off 74% of the bill. We got a letter from the hospital today, and they wrote every bit of it off. I still owe a few bills for my doctor, and the doctor I had in the hospital. But out of around $30,000 or so, I only have to pay around $2500-$3000. Hell yes. I was so worried about that.

Congrats on the job and reduction in bills. I hope it goes well!
 
The interview was two hours long, haha. That sucked. Got interviewed by some lady from the office. Then HR came to talk to me, then the some other guy that took me for a tour of the factory. They were willing to bump the wage up two bucks per hour. I called the employment agency I went through, and they thought that was a good sign. They're (employment agent) is supposed to call me tomorrow, to let me know what they found out.

Two hours long sucks, but bumping the salary up sounds like a great sign!
 
Man, oh man…
Been busy as hell these last few weeks!
Travelled a week for work.
Travelled a week to visit my ailing Grandma.
Travelled another week for work on night shift.
All the while my young boy has been dealing with a snapped/broken arm while sledding.
He had 2 pins put in to get it back in shape. Pins came out yesterday. My man didn’t even flinch! Haha
Just a crazy last month or so. Sorry for being MIA, but I’m just kinda getting back into the normal swing of things.

Glad to hear your son is on the mend :thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
I went to an uncle's funeral last week, I think I brought back the chinese clap. I feel like a dead fish. <x)~~~~~~{


Second time I ordered a cactus plant that the seller has forgotten to ship right away.
~I got a bonus for my time & trouble after asking where my purchases were. First I got a second plant, when I ordered an organ pipe cactus, I got a second plant free. Then a seller sent along a small ceramic plate and two small cactus shaped candles from another purchase just today. Those organ pipes are pretty cool plants. We've seen them in the wild on vacation before down in southern Arizona, and in Mexico.
 
I played hooky from my day off, and did some work today.
Rode out of town to our native plant nursery for some plant fixin's and brought back my haul. Planted a good bit of them already as well. I found out my smeller is on the blink, cause those great smellin' currants and mints don't smell like anything at all. I could barely taste my bacon dinner either, BACON!! I want my money back from this chinesium clap of thunder, not what I paid for at all. Sinuses have been inflamed and running like Niagra for a week.

I scored a couple nice 'Cardon' cactus and lots of other nice, ordinary looking plants though. I'm gonna try hitting up the desert connection tomorrow, another long run ahead.

After using the pocket organizer in this picture, I thought one for around the house. Would be handy. Quick math show the tools in the above pouch add up to more than $200. So I started looking at what I have already. An old Schrade/visegrip multi tool works for the base 6 in. adjustable wrench small 2n1 screwdriver and 1/4-5/16 driver makes a similar kit the pouch is something from Amazon is just okay quality
