Well, it is true, we only have so much time that is allotted to us. What we do with it all depends upon us. We can put it to good use or we can waste it and then regret it later in life. I am spending my time this weekend working to make some extra cash to pay bills (we owe we owe off to work we go) and Katy is investing time in her teacher in service in Columbia this weekend. Katy has to make it through this weekend and two more weekends in Columbia so she can get her offical certificate and then she will be rewarded by being able to keep her job and she will get all of her back pay from Sept of 05 and a pay raise to where she is supposed to be for a teacher with four years of experience. Not only that but she will get a very nice sign on bonus. Wahooooo! Go Katy go!
In December of 2005 I had a recruiter advise me to redo my resume. I was not all the excited about giving the resume a face lift but I figured what the heck, what do I have to lose anyway? I figured at that point I was not getting much response with the one I have. So, I spent a couple of hours converting the format I was using and sent it to this guy to submit me to a company in Columbia SC. I have not heard back from this recruiter but on Tuesday of this week when everyone was going back to work I received e-mail from four different recruiters trying to place me in contract positions in both Charleston and Columbia SC. Wahoooooo!
I went out to Santee Cooper yesterday and inteviewed for a six month contract in their data center. Man oh man talk about TOYS. They have a LOT of cool high tech toys. I could just get lost in toyland and get paid for it to boot. I should hear something on Monday if they picked me. I am sort of hopeful that they will because it will be a SERIOUS boost in income which we desperatly need. I have been working 36 hours a week doing my part time security job and then 25 hours per week doing my part time computer job during the day. That gives me a grand total of 61 hours of work per week and we are still struggling. So, with that in mind my prayer has been that I could trade in the part time jobs for one good paying full time contract or permanent position.
I spent some time yesterday upgrading http://gracefellowshipchurchgoosecreek.com and put the information online about the revival starting on next Wed Jan 11th. The revival will run from Wed through Saturday and then the regular Sunday service and the dedication service at 3pm on Sunday afternoon. I will be helping to manage the audio/video portion of the revival and then Friday night after the service Katy and I will head out to Myrtle Beach for our annual Rennisance weekend getaway. We are looking forward to some R&R. Katy and I both need some for sure.
If you are a web design guru and would like to help me with making our website look NICE and can donate some time and talents to this goal then please email me at moffittj"at"bellsouth.net and I can give you the particulars. We do not need anything complicated, just need better backgrounds, graphics and maybe some animated gifs etc.
I am sitting here being reminded of how I took a bunch of pictures when I tore apart my Toshiba Satellite laptop when it was having major problems last week but I never shared them online with you. I will try to upload those soon. Luckily for me the laptop is behaving itself for the most part.
In December of 2005 my car was run into from behind and I had to put my Pontiac in the body shop and my Gateway 2ghz machine had a hard drive go bad. Recently I got the car back in perfect shape and my computer was shipped back with a new hard drive and power supply. Can you say zoom zoom zoom??
WOW, as I was typing this I got the confirmation that I DID get the job at Santee Cooper. WAHOOOO , I am doing the HAPPY DANCE.
