Got a call from one of the agencies this morning.  They wanted me to start today temping at a job.  Its working in the Customer Service Department for a supermarket chain.  It was not a bad day's work.  I really like the people and the work isn't too difficult, just typing up letters.  Pays pretty well......not sure how long the assignment is though.  Oh, well.....I'll be there until they no longer need me or I get a permanent job.....whichever comes first!

Anway, here's today's Chick Chat .

2. Fav. Make-Up?: MaxFactor

3. Fav. Mac & Cheese?: Kraft Macoroni and Cheese

4. Fav. Milk %?: 2% Milk

5. Fav. Ice Cream Flavor?: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

Toodles for now!

I'm jobless again.  After a few weeks of making unappreciated phone calls and taking loads of abuse from the people I was ringing, I finally had enough and quit.  So I'm job hunting again.  I'm registered with several employment agencies, so hopefully something will come up very soon.  If not, then I'll have to go back to the paper.  That's not what I want to do, but if necessary, I will.

So, how's everybody else?  Hope everyone has been getting on okay.  Not much else going on here.  Just been drawing some more graphics and working on my graphics website, trying to get it ready so I can open it.

Off to visit some blogs now!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!

Hope everyone has had a wonderful day! Mine has been okay. Woke up about 10am this morning to a text message on my mobile from Gem, wishing me a Happy 4th :) Rich and I then had a lazy morning watching television. About 1pm we had some hot dogs for lunch (something slightly American, lol). Spoke to my Mom about 2pm our time (9am her time). This afternoon we watched the Wimbledon Men's Final, hoping to see Andy Roddick beat Roger Federer, however we were disappointed. It was a good match though. This evening for dinner we're having grilled hamburgers with all the trimmings, french fries (chips, lol), and watermelon for dessert. I'll be ringing my Dad and Sister soon to wish them a Happy 4th. I'm feeling very homesick again today. Wish I could be home with them.

To answer the questions about if (and when) we're going to move back to the US, we ARE planning to move back. Hopefully (*fingers crossed*) at the end of July (when I get my first pay check from the new job) we're going to be filing our I-130 Petition for Rich to go to the US. After this, we'll just have to wait and see how long it takes. We will definitely be here until December, as Rich's Gran will celebrate her 90th birthday on the 15th of December and we're having a family celebration for it, but we are planning to be in the US for Christmas anyway. It would be really nice if when we flew over for Christmas we were also bringing our things to move there, but I'm not really that optimistic about it. I have thought about going on over and then filing from the US for Rich to join me, but I really don't think I could bear to be away from him. Maybe that's not the healthiest way to be, but we were apart for so long before we got married and now we've lived together for 2 years, I think the distance would just tear me apart.

Anyway, I've got a lot of new projects in the works (I always do, a lot of which never come about, but I have to keep my mind on something to keep from going crazy). I'll post more about them as I get them started. I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday and a fabulous 4th of July. If you've got fireworks to let off (please be extra cautious, as you all mean a great deal to me) or if you're going to an organised display, don't forget to think about me!
