Very Busy

I have a very good chance at a job at the Hospital where my mother works. I'll know for sure by Tuesday. The interviewer said that she couldn't think of any reason why they wouldn't hire me. I just hope that it comes through. Unemployment denied my benefits and I need the money coming in. What I have saved in my 401K won't last too long.

Remember how we all thought Mom should get a pet? Well we don't need to worry about that now. She has adopted Merlin. I'm back here in Chicagoland packing stuff up and Merlin is with his Grandmother at her insistence. Mom decided that he really shouldn't have to travel in the car back here if I was returning to Indiana on the weekend. In fact she doesn't think he should have to come back here at all since I will be packing and he would "just be in the way." Hmm think the fact that the little monkey goes down and sits by the door waiting for her to come home from work and then rubs against her might have something to do with it? ;-)
