Waiting and Waiting

It has been four weeks since I last had a job.

It's so weird to not have one! It's rather disconcerting. I'm hoping it comes to an end in the very near future.

On the 8th of January I had an interview with HMSA. The interview went well, I think, but she said I was at the beginning of the interview process and they would get back to me in about two weeks. Two weeks will be on this Thursday and I've not heard back... After they told me that, I went home and applied for a couple of postings I saw off of Craigslist. One was for a vault position with American Savings Bank and another was for a teller position with Bank of Hawaii. Both interviews went really well and, again, I should be hearing back from them soon-ish. I'm going to call American Savings tomorrow to see if they've had a chance to make a choice.

I'm still on edge, though. I hate waiting, waiting, waiting for someone to get back to me! I know I'm a great employee (not to brag or anything) and I know I'm a great individual, too (my mamma taught me well). But the competition out here is fierce. Like, crazy-fierce. I'm scared that no matter how many interviews I go on, no matter how well of a charmer I am, I'll never get a job. Which doesn't work well for this little lady because... well... bills. Yeah. Needless to say, I'm very much so looking forward to tax returns.

That being said, I've got two more interviews tomorrow. One at a temp agency and another at a data-entry place. Both are in Honolulu so I'm going to make a bit of a day of it. I should be done with interviews after about 2PM. I'm thinking I'll change clothing, grab a bite to eat, and make my way to Diamond Head. I'd like to be there for sunset, which is about 6:15PM. I'm hoping to avoid traffic on my way home. I'll let you know if I'm successful or not!

In other news... I've started working out again. I'm starting this round with a weight of 191 lbs. It only took me four weeks to get back in the saddle. And boy-howdy! I didn't bring any weights with me to Hawaii (which I'm kicking myself for... I could have at least brought the let of 5 lbs weights) and I don't have any resistance bands, either. However, for not having any weights, the 21 Day Fix is totally kicking my butt! I feel it in my thighs, butt, and every single angle of my abs. I also feel it in my arms. I'm hobbling around like I did when I first started in May of 2014, when I kicked it off with using all of the weights. So... yeah... I'll keep you posted, of course! ;-)

So that's what I've been up to for the last two weeks or so, more or less. I'll be posting pictures soon from my Canon camera. I can't wait! I'm so excited to finally get back to photography with a real camera. :-)
