It's been a long time
It has been a very long time since my last post and a lot has happened since then. On February 4Th I lost my job due to the relocation of it to Canada. I was not surprised to see it happen but I was not expecting it to happen so fast. I have been looking everyday and applying but there is so many people out of work right now it has been tough to even get interviews as there are so many qualified people out of work. I did have an interview here in Antioch yesterday for a Customer Service Rep position. I am suppose to hear back by the end of the week. It doesn't pay as much as I was receiving but with no commute it is a start.
Brian's company AT&T have started their labor negotiations so hopefully it goes well or he may be going on strike in April and who knows how long that might last.
I have to say that the boys are enjoying me not working especially Brandon as I can now take him to school. If I get this job in Antioch I will still be able to do that so he is crossing his fingers.
Brandon had a field trip on Tuesday that I was able to attend. We went to the Mission Delores in San Francisco. It was beautiful and we had a great time. I took some pictures which I will post later.
Brent has had to give up his racing career for this year due to me losing my job. He was very sad but he was also very understanding. We have heard that a lot of people in our racing club were upset that he will not be racing as they really like Brent and say he is a great driver and kid. We sold our trailer so if we are given the opportunity to race again we will have to invest in a open trailer which doesn't cost as much as a closed one.
The boys have now taken up R/C Racing as it does not cost as much as the big car does. Racing is in their blood so I guess another form doesn't hurt. They are planning to go practice on Sunday.
Well that is all for now. Hope all of you are doing well. Take care and leave me a comment or two.
