In a rut

I feel like I am in a rut again. I'm in a dead end job, seriously dead end we are going out of business by the end of the year, I feel like all my friends are getting married, pregnant, or going on adventures to teach foreign kids English. Where I am stuck in Boise, making no money, not dating anyone, and feeling helpless. Don't get me wrong I love Boise, and pretty much want to live here forever since it's close to my family, but I feel like I need to get out of my comfort zone and do something new. I've applied for several jobs, got one interview, got turned down for the job, and now I have no idea where else to apply. I don't know what kind of work I want to do. Do I stay in retail where I'll most likely be working every weekend including Sundays, have unreliable hours, and crappy pay? Or do I try and find something better? And if so what? I don't want to do massage any more which I went to school for and wasted a ton of money. Okay that's not exactly true I would love to do massage, I just have wrist problems that make it hard to do it. I'll lose feeling in my hands for hours-days on end. Not exactly fun let me tell you!
     So I guess the big question is: 
                WHAT DO I WANT TO DO WITH MY LIFE WHEN I GROW UP?

I know I don't want to do call centers. Yes they make good money, but I don't like people yelling at me for things I have no control of, and I don't want to sit in a cubical all day talking on the phone. I also know I don't want to work fast food ie- McDonalds, Burger King, Jack in the Box, and so forth.

I know I do want a job that will offer benefits, full time or close to, decent pay (ie over min wage) and a steady schedule. (I'm tired of having a different work schedule every single week. It makes it hard to plan things with friends when I never know what I'll be working till the week before.) Is that too much to ask for? I'd also like a place where there aren't people that are constantly gossiping and backstabbing. Which I know pretty much any where I go there will be some but there is sooooo much drama at Fashion Bug. I think working with guys would help even that out a little bit. Stick 9 girls and no guys together all the time and there is nothing but drama drama drama. And man am I tired of it.

So if anyone has any ideas of what I can do for work let me know it would be much appreciated....

Somebody

I was going through some old emails and found this poem. It was a nice little reminder :)

Always Remember This:


Somebody is very proud of you.

Somebody is thinking of you.

Somebody is caring about you.

Somebody misses you.

Somebody wants to talk to you.

Somebody wants to be with you.

Somebody hopes you are not in trouble.

Somebody hopes everything turns out all right.

Somebody wants you to be happy.

Somebody can't wait to see you.

Somebody loves you for who you are.

Somebody is glad that you are their friend.

Somebody wants you to know they are there for you.

Somebody needs your support.

Somebody will cry when they read this.

Somebody needs you to have faith in them.

Somebody trusts you.

Somebody hears a song that reminds them of you.

how do you know?

How can you know for sure that something will not happen when it has happened 8 times before? You can't say this time will be different and know for a fact that it will be. Especially in my life......

Here we go again......

Every time one of my really good friends get into a relationship, I'm suddenly no longer part of their life. My best friend just got into a relationship, and I've already noticed that she's slowly been ignoring me. Okay maybe ignoring isn't the right word.... She doesn't have time for me anymore. Everything revolves around him and her job. So her I go again spriling into a round of depression close to tears thinking What is it about me that people don't like spending time with me? and Why can't I have a relationship?
I hate my life

Sick.....

So I've been sick pretty much since the beginning of the year. I have had a nasty cough, nasal congestion, sore throat, and now to top it off I got a bacterial infection in my ear which caused my ear drum to burst. So now not only am I coughing and can't breath, but I also can't hear out of my right ear. Okay I can hear a little bit but everything is high pitch or I constantly hear white noise... It's really annoying. I'm now on antibotics which will hopefully help everything. I've also tried every nasal decongestion and pretty much nothing is working. I'm going insane!!

Struggling.....

I feel like all I do lately is struggle. I struggle with going to work, I struggle with being in the holiday spirit, I struggle with knowing who my real friends are....

I hate going to work. I love what I do.... I absolutely love when people come in and say I have this event I am going to and I need a new outfit. This is what I like this is what I don't like. Go pick out whatever you think will look amazing. I feel soo accomplished when I'm able to choose things that look amazing on them, and they are happy with the out come. Right now I just can't handle all the backstabbing, and all the complaining, and everything that's going on. One of the managers constantly complains about her love life to everyone, and when I say everyone I mean everyone. All the employees and all the customers. It's super annoying. She's so scattered brain it's ridiculous. She tells me a hundred different things to do, which I get accomplished for the most part, but she always go back right after me and changes things. Even when I do exactly what she says to do she'll change it. I don't feel appreciated for the things I do. Another manager is constantly ragging on my about my physical appearance. I need to wear makeup I don't look professional, or those camo capris are ugly why are you wearing them, or different things like that. She makes me feel bad about myself all the time, and I'm getting tired of it. There are days I seriously have to do everything in my power not to punch her in the face. She gets away with doing nothing all the time because she's the main manager's best friend. She says almost every shift I don't feel like doing anything so she doesn't, but she's constantly telling me what to do, or trying to send me home early so she can take my hours. And I looked at my schedule for next week and starting today I work 7 days in a row. Not only am I annoyed that I don't get a weekend off this month but I'm also annoyed I'm working another Sunday. When I agreed to become manager part of it was I would only work ONE Sunday a month, and I've been working every other Sunday for about 3 months.... :( GRRR I try talking to the main manager about it and she ignores what I have to say. I seriously don't think this job is worth it. I'm working part time, no insurance, and I really dislike the people I work with. I think I'm going to give my self ulcers with how much I stress about work.

Struggling with the holiday spirit. What else is new. It seems like the older I get the less I like holidays. They use to be fun when I was younger, but now they are all about give me, give me, give me. What ever happened to the true meaning of Christmas???? Where are you Christmas? Why can't I find you? Why have you gone away? Where is the laughter, You used to bring me? Why can't I hear music play? My world is changing I'm rearranging, Does that mean Christmas changes too?? That song lyric pretty much sums up how I feel about that....

As for Struggling with friends....... Lately I feel like I don't have any real friends. One of my best friends cut me out of her life after we had a minor disagreement. She felt like I was judging her for not wanting to watch a scary movie a while back... When my group of friends planned a movie night we planned a scary movie night. Kelise didn't want to watch a scary movie which yes I was disappointed but I was okay with changing the movie if it would make her happy. Apparently it didn't make her happy..... she also feels like I'm trying to change who she is. Which I guess I was a little bit, but at the same time she was the one who felt like she had no other friends in the ward so yes I tried to push her out of her shy shell to meet new people. Sorry for trying to help..... I'm frustrated that she would just cut me out of her life. She talked to others in person when she was having problems with them, but she won't talk to me in person. She'll only do it through text which sucks you get wrong impressions of what is said thru text messages... so that's my problem with Kelsie, but I'm struggling with others too... My supposedly best guy friend is hardly talking to me lately, and my best friend D and I are driving each other insane apparently. I think we've spent too much time together. Things were taken the wrong way and things haven't been the same. We've hardly talked to each other in the past 2 weeks. We're getting together tomorrow so her and her sister can use my Costco card so we'll see how weird things are between us. I just don't know what to do any more. I feel like nothing I say or do is right with my friends not sure how much more I can handle.....

I also miss my sister she needs to come home from Hawaii already I need to meet her little girl. I need some baby time, maybe that will cheer me up, or it'll make me more depressed because I don't have a family of my own.... but we'll see. Hopefully it makes me happy..... well I should head to bed I have to work in the morning...... :/

Cold December Night Lyrics- Michael Buble

Stockings are hung with care, as children sleep with one eye open Well now there's more than toys at stake cos I'm older now, but not done hoping
The twinkling of the lights, as scented candles fill the household Old Saint Nick has taken flight with a heart on board, so please be careful
Each year I ask for many different things, but now I know what my heart wants you to bring
So please just fall in love with me, this Christmas There's nothing else that I will need, this Christmas Won't be wrapped under a tree, I want something that lasts forever, so kiss me on this cold December night
A cheer that smells of pine, a house that's filled with joy and laughter The mistletoe says stand in line, loneliness is what I capture Oh that this evening can be a holy night Let's cozy on up by the fireplace and dim those Christmas lights
So please just fall in love with me, this Christmas There's nothing else that you will need, this Christmas Won't be wrapped under a tree, I want something that lasts forever, so kiss me on this cold December night
They call it the season of giving; I'm here, I'm yours for the taking They call it the season of giving; I'm here, I'm yours
Just fall in love with me, this Christmas There's nothing else that we will need, this Christmas Won't be wrapped under a tree, I want something that lasts forever, cos I don't wanna be alone tonight
I'll wear you like a Christmas sweater, walk you proudly to the mistletoe tonight
I want something that lasts forever, so kiss me on this cold December night
They call it the season of giving; I'm here, I'm yours for the taking They call it the season of giving; I'm here, I'm yours
