Still Not Really Going As Planned

Well after going to the hospital and working things out so that I could work in the ER I figured out that may not be the best source for work. It came even more clear after talking with the assistant manager. I will hopefully be able to pick up some work. My goal has changed. At this point I just need to pay off debt and hope that I will be able to make something towards a car. I know now that a car most likely won't happen. I am trying to do little things to earn some cash. I am watching a newborn all day Friday and mowing the law for my dad again. Doing some small things for my parents. It doesn't pay much but it does pay.
Today I went to a PALS (Pediatric Advance Life Support) class with my mom. Totally interesting. I am so excited for my EMT course next semester. I set up two EMS ride alongs with some friends. I am so looking forward to it. It will help me get a better understanding of when I will be doing in my future as a paramedic. Well that is about it for me. More soon I'm sure.
Always,

Sometimes it doesn't go as planned

Things have had a change of plans. I was supposed to start work the Monday after I got home. That didn't happen but instead I got to spend a week having fun with my family. My Older sister, Ginger and her husband, Chris, flew down to Houston for a visit. We spent the whole time shopping for her babies, she's pregnant with twins. We found out yesterday that they are both boys! We went to the Houston Outlet malls one day and spent last whole day last Saturday on the boat. We tried out the tube for the first time and let's just say I can't wait till this Saturday to do it all again. I loved it. My abs hurt for days afterward from laughing so hard. Well it set in on Sunday that my job that I thought I had set up had fallen through.
On Monday I started the work. I looked into working in the ER again. I started making hair bows to sell and spent some time with Ki's family. Tuesday everything was set in stone. I was hired back on in the ER as a PRN status. I get to work every time I am back in town. So this Christmas I'll have a place to work. It is comforting knowing that I have an income. Now the goal is to pay off debt and make enough money to buy a car. I even started doing little jobs around the house. I mowed the lawn for 25 dollars in pennies. And Ki is going to pay me to do his too. Every little bit helps.
Tomorrow, I'm taking my baby sister school shopping and to swim lessons.
That's it for now,
Always,
