Interview day

Well, last night I had to go work a shift at the RCMP again.  I was so tired and really didn't want to go, but I packed a supper and headed out.  I stopped by to see Tyler because I wouldn't get to hang out with him at night.  I arrived at work and received very good news.  Both prisoners were being released and I would get to go home early.  It's great going home early, but I had to clean both cells and that is never a nice job to have.  But after only 2 short hours I got to come home.  I surprised Ty.  It was fun.

I then got to talk to Ranita.  We talked wedding details and it was so much fun.  I miss that girl, and all the rest of my friends.  It's still a little hard to hear about how much fun they all have together, but I do enjoy it.  It's always nice to talk to good friends :)

And that brings me to today.  I didn't sleep well last night, so getting out of bed this morning was a little tough.  Once I made my way to the breakfast cereals (and the orangoutangs and the fruit bats..) I sat on the couch for a little while while my body woke up.  Then I worked out, showered and got ready for the rest of the day.  I had to figure out what I wanted to where for my interview and when we moved out here, I didn't anticipate having to dress fancy out here.  I did find something that could pass as fancyish so that was good.

Ty came home for lunch and we enjoyed that together.  I left for my interview and it was blowing and raining and not very nice out.  I probably looked like something the cat dragged in by the time I got to the building.  I waited a little bit before they came and got me and then it was time for my interview.

I was a little nervous as I haven't been in an interview for over a year and a bit.  They asked me some pretty regular questions and I answered most of them intelligently.  I feel really good about the interview.  There were about 20 people who applied for the jobs, and they short listed it to 12.  I was one of those 12 which feels like I might have a chance at actually getting one of the jobs.  I was interviewed by someone who knows my aunt and uncle who live in Hay River, but I don't know if that helped anything.  I don't know what my chances are at getting this job, but I did my best and that's all I care about.  What's pretty cool about this job is that the whole program it's a part of, it just starting.  If I get hired, I would a part of the building and developing of this program and that's pretty cool.  Who knows what will happen.  I find out on Tuesday.

I came home and was freezing cold.  I cranked the heat up and relaxed.  Once I was warm enough I fell asleep on the couch.  I was tired so it felt good to take a little nap.  I woke up when Tyler came home from work.  And then we made the most wonderful meal we've had in a long time.  We has salmon with rice.  The salmon had oil, salt and pepper on it.  We thought it would be pretty bland but we cooked it up anyway.  And it was amazing.  We both are liking fish a lot more and thats good considering we have a freezer full of it.  Kitty, however, still wont eat fresh salmon.  Tyler cut her some scraps from our meal but she stuck her nose up at that.

And since it wasn't raining after dinner, we finally went for a walk.  And that was also amazing.  We haven't gone for a walk in forever it seems and it felt really great to get out there again.  It got dark pretty fast so we came home.

We have had to recone Kitty today.  Her wounds aren't healing at all so she is currently laying on the back of the couch, trying to make us feel sorry for her.  She gets so pathetic with that cone on.  It's really sad but we want her to heal all the way so it will be on for a while now.  She is in the cone/harness rig so she really hates us right now.

I am super tired tonight, so it might be an early bed time for me.  Tyler has to go to work later tonight so I'm not sure when he will go to bed.  Our night isn't going to be filled with much.

Tomorrow, I'm going to the school to make a dreamcatcher.  I'm pretty excited about it, except that it means I wont be able to just sleep as long as I want in the morning.  I guess I can cope with that.  It should be pretty cool.

Enjoy the night and evening.
