Week One - Still in Limbo-Land

Well, it is Friday, and it is the end of the first full week of job unemployment. I have sent out via online about 10 resumes/apps, and have only had one call this week. It was for a job that I had not even applied for, but they had seen my resume online. But I turned them down right away. I am not going to recruit people to sell insurance.

I have been neglectful in posting here this week, but plan to improve over next week. Most of this week has been searching/registering/applying with some online services to help locate a job. Also a bit of reaching out to friends to see if anything is available were there are at. Other than that, it has been stir crazy at the d00d's home. By the time the Wife arrives with the kids, I am ready to either go to bed, or get out of the house. Usually seems to be ending up in bed. You'd think with more of this free time, I would be spending more time at the gym, but I haven't even gone for about 2 weeks now. No motivation, and the pounds are starting to stack up again. Maybe I can try to get out mid day during the week, and that would help end some of the stir craziness feelings... I dunno.

Tomorrow is a softball game. Seems the company one of my Buddies work at want to challenge the regular softball team. We will be playing best of three games, and having some brews at the park in the morning. The weather here has been great, so should be a good time. About another month and it will be good swimming weather!!!

The daughter performed last night in the final concert for the HS band. Turns out she was short just a few points to qualify for her varsity letter, but she should achieve that next year no problem. The middle Son, Nate (5), had his school's Field Day yesterday morning - which I attended (to get out of the house). He was so cute doing some of the activities, and I wished I had had the camera. His teacher took some photos, so possibly I can get some copies still. All the mid quarter grades for the kids are good. The oldest son, Ralphd00d IV, has a 7th grade reading level - not bad for a 4th grader. I keep urging him to read more than play his Gameboy. It's nice when all the kids love attending school. I have no clue where they got that trait.

Okay, so enough for this post. I need to go check my email again, and catch up on some blog reading. See ya back here soon!!
