Back from being offline for far too long! This site is blocked at work - - so I'm limited to checking in on my phone, intenet cafe (which I'm doing right now) or when I'm at my SIL's.

Last week wasn't the best - - car broke down and I missed a day of work because of it. Hopefully it won't be held against me - - as a casual/part time employee it is a real fear that any shift could be my last. The new fiscal year started which is another cause for worry for a bunch of us. *sigh*

And there was a huge mix-up with one of my jobs. for some reason my timesheet wasn't turned in on time (3 weeks late! thanks to supervisor) and then they held it up over an address mix-up. In the end they sent it to the department where I work. However - they sent it on a Friday and didn't tell me. Since I didn't have to work that week I had to wait until I did go in to work - - over a week later. jeez - it took over a month to get paid for that job. what a mess. And then everything went to pay the repair bill on the car!

But - - on a positive note: it isn't raining and the weather is kind of nice - - a bit cool but bearable.

Have been trying to keep expenses down (not having much luck!) so I am rereading a bunch of books. I've read 2 Jane Austen books and am now working on Anne of Green Gables. My SIL is quite the reader so she will have some books that she is finished with that I can pick up later this week.

Hope everyone has a good week! Hope to be back again soon!
