good day today

My batphone rang so much today it died.
I had the bus company call to give me a time to be at the depot they want me to work from tomorrow. Apparently I am going to meet the depot manager! No real idea what it is about except that Ivwe apparently gotten through the medical. So thats progressing. Wasnt happy with the pissing about though.

Got a call from Woolworths recruitment. Id applied for a night stackers job with them. Well hell today was the last day I got my pension so in 2 weeks i would be broke. As it is ive paid the rent for a fortnight.So i have an appointment for that tomorrow.

HOWEVER

yesterday I applied for a job as a delivery driver at a place about 30 minutes from here. They rang within an hour of me emailing my resume! I had the interview yesterday arvo. They rang this arvo n said when can you start! So I have a job starting monday.
Money isnt as good as the buses, but i think the petrol bill will be far lower, so, swings n roundabouts.

The way I see it the worst can happen is im there for a month until the bus job comes through. Even if i HATE it i can do it for a month.

Still no news from the Rail cop job. Though i finally got through to someone at their recruiting. I didnt pass the role playing section, but only JUST missed out. So apparently I can apply to resit the role play and they will tell me where i missed out. So thats all good IF it actually ever comes through. The girl I spoke to thought i was perfect for the position based on what was on her PC when she was looking me up. Which was nice.

The gym has been fun. I have fixed my backhand after reviewing my Geof Hunt on Squash tape. I have even improved my forehand striking. I did a boxercise class on tuesday that was well fun eh. Tiring though HEH. Im not losing loads of weight but I feel much better and Im starting to slim down some. Ive noticed b4 that when i do weights i tend to bulk up fairly fast in my shoulders n arms even on light weights. So I tend to add muscle which is heavy. So im not that worried about only dropping 4 kilos at this point.

Blood pressure is coming down slowly from its peak 160/110 when Becky died. Weird feeling that. You can hear your pulse ALL the time n feel rather heavy in the head. Its a weird feeling. BOM BOM BOM all flushed n hot all the time. Feel pretty good now. Looking forward to getting off the medication.

anyway
thats all from me.

Hiya sweet cheeks. Sounds like the job prospect side of things isn't looking so bad. More importantly, you're sounding quite positive. That's great. While you're busy losing 4 kilo, I'm busy putting on 3, blah.

Boxercise sounds like a great cardio class, that'll have the pounds melting off I imagine. Either that or you getting injured (haha, couldn't resist - says she about to go and have more physio on stupid knee lol)

Glad to read your bp's settling down and you're no longer hearing your heartbeat pounding in your ears!
