I couldn't imagine having to be a housewife full-time. No offense. It is a hard job especially when you have kids, but we don't. I am sitting at home on Monday and thinking how sad it is I only have to work 2 hours tonight at the gym when James is just waking up from a 16 hour shift. Trust me, this lack of work is not by choice! I applied for a job as a copy editor at the times delta today... cross your fingers! I have two Bachelors degrees, passed the CBEST and have passed two of three CSET's... still working toward a credential, maybe a masters in education but right now can't see the light at the end of the tunnel w/ all the layoffs going on in California. SO I sit here on the couch, watching World Cup, scanning all the job sites... careerbuilder, hotjobs, monster, craigslist (worthless now), caljobs, etc. and somehow I come up w/ nothing. How is that!? It's sad to think I'm approaching 30 and still don't have a career... an education? yes. Carrer? no. Sad and Unfair. But on the bright side... Spain is up 2-0 and dominating Honduras.

It's now a 1/4 to 1:oopm. I have cleaned the kitchen, done the laundry, pickup around the house, watered the plants, made lunch and still can't seem to feel like I've accomplished much. Soon, very soon, I will get up, go workout and then train. Sooner than that, James will be back at work for another 8 hour shift... I'm thinking he deserves a little pampering when he gets home. Kiss and a cold beer always does the trick.
