Interview went well.

I had my interview today with Hamline University this morning. I think it went well. I should here Friday or so. I think it would be a great place to work the people seem really fun . If this is any sign that things are starting to turn around for us. I received a call yesterday from Babies R Us and they offered me a part time position. I have orientation next Thursday so I will be later for knitting. OH well money needs to come first.

We leave tomorrow for our camping trip so no knitting group for me.

I will keep you updated on the job front.

Need good interview vibes.

I have an interview with Hamline University on Wednesday. Please send me good interview vibe. This position would be an Admin Assist for the fundraising department.

We went to the MN zoo yesterday with the family. Ry wanted to take all the animals home with us cuz she thought they were hers. Then we took Nick to my moms so they could go up north camping. We had a good day.

I have never been treated so rudely.

Never to patronize the Book Corner again. Last evening Rick and I took some books into the Book Corner used book store in Woodbury off Radio Dr. This store was recommended to us by a couple of our friend, so we thought we would try it. When we got there the owner was in the back so we waited for her to only be yelled at that we set our book on the wrong counter. We are OK we will move them. She made a snotty comment about not taking hard cover books unless they are new release or childrens books, Agian OK I will put them in the car.(From me)only to be told NO JUST LEAVE THEM! As she looked at what we had we looked around. Rick found a book he wanted so we went to the front to find out what kind of credit we had. To be told she was only going to buy 2 books, (she said that they are all Star Trek or hard cover) There was alot more than that as I had about 20 romance (soft cover) and Rick had 5 Star Trek. Our thought was OK we will take that credit. Rick did not know that the store policy (which is not posted anywhere) was that you can use your credit to pay for half of the cost and cash for the rest. He said he would used the credit to buy the book. Well that start her into a tyraid of how she was not a book exchange and she was tired of people thinking she was. I calmly said we had never been in her store before so we did not know her policy and she should not be yelling at us. She proceeded to yell some more about that she did not have to be nice to anyone and she was not a book exchange (she was rolling her eye looking at another customer). I then told her she had come highly recommended to us by couple of friends and do not appricate being treated like that. Only to be yelled at somemore so I told her to go to Hell and walked out of the store.

We then went to the other used book store in Woodbury on Woodlane. Where we were treated very kindly. The sales person at Mainstreet Bookseller was telling us how they are getting alot of business because of the Book Corner being so rude. She also told us that the owner of the Book Corner even slapped a customers hand for trying to look at a book she did not have shelved yet.

Thanks for reading the vent. Enter the Book Corner at your own risk.

Update on life

Well I am still looking for a job. I did have a phone interview with a company yesterday. I think it went well but who knows. I will find out Thursday or Friday if I made it to the next round of interview.

On the knitting front I am still working on the shrug for Alley and the same pair of socks I have been working on for a while now. The socks should be done soon so I will focus on the shrug.

I have been working on spinning again. Still spinning the lovey pink fleece. I hope to be done with that soon. I still do not know what I will make with the yarn. It is only the second fleece I have spun so it is very irregular.

Well that is about it.
