House hunting

So on top of everything, Jei and I have to find a new place to live because the apt that we are renting is being sold. Jei starts a new job tomorrow, welding. They are giving him a two week trial. We have three prospective places, one of which may end up being our new home! Pretty excited andI just hope everything works out!

So I got "Let Go" for nothing?

Yesterday we had to go pay bills with our quickly dwindling cache of money. I had left dvds at Radio Shack so I decided to pick them up.


Once I got in there and spoke with my former manager, he informs me that the so-called fraudulent sale that I had conducted under his authorization wasn't even fraudulent.
Nice, so now he's supposedly trying to get us our jobs back.

I've decided, since I've already had call backs from several places, that I am going to go with the highest pay. Even if we do get our jobs back, I am not too sure I want to go back......

Also I would just like to say, I am not trying to bad mouth Radio Shack or any of the people that work there. My manager was the best manager I have ever had in my life. The people of Radio Shack are amazing, they have never been mean or cold to me in anyway. I don't believe in basing my opinions on others, I like to form opinions on my own experiences and ideas.

I am just sharing my experience with a flawed system, and Radio Shack isn't the only place in the world that has them....

I have had my share of experiences with flawed systems before. One being the Adams County Court system.


Alas, I digress. I'll share more as I see fit.

Major Update

Seriously? Over a year? We are such slackers!! Sorry!


Ok where to start? Well I'd like to start with last year. So last year around May 15th I started a job at Radio Shack. It was easy and fun and I really liked it. Around June 17th? Maybe 18th. I found out I was pregnant while using birth control. That was crazy.

So first time in my life I have ever worked while pregnant, it sucked. I fell at one point and my back got messed up so I had to go to the chiropractor. That fixed the back problems.
On March 3rd I had another son via c section. He was HUGE, at least compared to the twins. LOL
He weighed 9 lbs 1.3 oz.

So then I had a month of maternity leave which was super weird because I was so used to working! I was excited when I got back to work and being at Radio Shack our work depends on sales etc. I was having a great month back, seriously I was practically green across the board, meaning I was hitting my goals.

April 30th, I get a call from my manager. He let myself and a coworker go because of some supposed fraudulent sale that I rang up, but only after my manager approved it and gave my instructions on how to conduct it, which I followed strictly.......


Ah such is life!

So this is it. The defining moment of my life. I need to do something and something I like now. If I don't, who knows, maybe I'll be in the middle of a midlife crisis?

So I am going to be starting a new blog about my art. I use many different mediums and have many different techniques. I am going to post about art I like, art I make, and if you are good little boys and girls, I'll even post some tutorials. Heck if I get enough interested in it, I'll do requests! :p

For now I bid you ado!
