Job Interview

I’ve gotten an appointment for a job interview this week!  Yippee!

 

For every twenty-thirty resume’s I send out, I get a call for an interview.  I had applied online with a security company and I was notified to come in for a interview at the Colorado Job service center on Thursday.

Have a Great Day!

Mini Vacations are great!

I have not written much about losing my husband of 25 years, but every now and then I start falling off track so to speak and last week was one of those weeks. 
I've been questioning every decision I have made in the last couple of months...

• am I giving my oldest daughter the support she needs to start her own life?
• am I showing my youngest daughter how to prepare for life after High School?
• Have I made the right decision to go back to college,etc.

It's like taking baby step every day!  I wake up every morning, give thanks for what God has provided for me and my girls in this journey.

So I took a "Mini Vacation" in my loft over the garage of all places. I just needed to get away from all the commotion that goes on at my house and take a moment or two to look back at the way my life has evolved after my husband passed away.

Have a Great Day!

Memorial Day

 

Hi Friends,

Some of us will be going to Memorial Day services at the cemetery, some of us will be going camping, some us will be gathering with family for a picnic, some of us will going to parades to honor our fallen soldiers,   men and women that have helped to keep our Freedom in America.                                                  

What ever your doing today, please take a moment to remember our fallen soldiers that helped in making the United States of America a darn nice place to live.

Have a Great Day!  Colo Junkett

Last Day of School !! Yipeee !!

This coming week is 'Final's Week' at the college and then summer break for me. I'm so excited!  I have a few weeks before the High School is out for their summer break, The last thing I thought I would be doing is watching my grandson this summer.

Don't get me wrong I love watching them, we play outside, we watch old cartoons, we plays games, and oh the toys! toys! toys!, but I had a lot of things on my list I was hoping to get done around my little Colorado Cottage in the next couple of weeks.  Oh well it's all good. Their only this age for a short time

 

You Have a Great Day!  Colo Junkett

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Did I just see a little red bearded man leaving a gold piece behind? That's right, it's..........    Saint Patricks Day!

With all the kids in the house, I've been thinking about what would be fun for supper tonight, maybe "Green Eggs and Ham" "Cornbeef and Cabbage", and maybe something fun with JELLO.  Reality check .... kids and I are in school, not a lot of time in my day.  I picked up a 2 lb package of cornbeef and a couple of pounds of red potatoes last week.  So before school I got the cornbeef and potatoes in the crock pot set on low and off to school we go! Not very Irish I know, but it's what my kids will eat. 

Have a Great Day!

Thanks for stopping by Colorado Junkett
