The economy is in such a terrible state right now. Today I was checking out the unemployment rates across the country and Michigan by far has the highest. That’s such a sad thing but I know it’s true. I was in that position for nearly a year. I have the experience and the qualifications and yet I wasn’t able to get a job.

One thing that I’ve noticed with everyone being jobless is the price on homes and buildings. Real estate is dirt cheap because families and businesses had to move since they lost their jobs and clients and therefore couldn’t afford to pay the rent. People are trying to sell these places so they are slashing the prices. If you do have the money and are looking to buy a new home or some commercial real estate then the time is now! You can buy a nice place for very little, fix it up and sell it for 3 times what you paid for it, if not more. Hey, it’s just a suggestion.

It’s getting really cold outside really fast. Times like these I wish I had a significant other just for the body heat. It’s nice to snuggle up next to someone in front of the fire with a mug of hot chocolate. Well it seems nice because I surely don’t know if it is or not.

While you are being all cozy with your significant other why don’t you spice things up a little bit with some sexy lingerie. I’m sure that will keep things interesting and it would be unexpected. People expect those things around Valentines day or birthdays but it’s near the end of October and unless they have a birthday coming up that will definitely catch them off guard!

I have a training session to go to in a few hours. I’ve been working at my company for nearly 3 months and they finally decided to have a training session. Great, huh? I don’t want to go because at those sessions you have to talk. Training anywhere is annoying. Imagine being trained after you knew the job? Really? What kind of sense does that make? But I can’t say no, I’m not going to go. So yep…I’ll be there tomorrow, learning the ins and outs of the company.

My manager said it’s good because I have a heads up. I’ve been with the company for a while, I work at the busiest store in our district and I already got my promotion. Hahaha. It seems so crazy. All I need now is a raise. I’m kind of disappointed by my pay rate. But what can I do? Suck it up and take it. I’m not sure if this new position comes with a raise. I haven’t heard anything about that yet and if it doesn’t I’m not schedule for a raise until 3 months from now. I’ll probably let you know how the training went later on.

I love water. Sometimes I wish I could stay in the bathroom all day under the water. It could be washing my hands or in the shower. I just love the warm stream over me. It is very relaxing. It’s not good to use too much water though. I try my best to conserve as much as I can, but sometimes it would be nice to be able to.

Why does it seem like water is always better with a nice faucet. If I’m under an old faucet that has rust stains all around it and looks like it’s about to fall off the sink I’m sure to get out of there quick. I know I would feel great under a new Kohler faucets. I wouldn’t mind drinking water from the faucet because it wouldn’t look like rust is coming out with the water. That’s one of the minor features that I love about a home but a beautiful faucet in the kitchen and bathroom could do wonders!
