My morning.......

Its been quite a morning.....I dropped Abigail at preschool and then drove into town....I got some things to send over to Lloyds best friend in Baghdad. I bought presents for Abigails preschool teachers....I bought some Fathers Day cards......got some groceries......

I was in one store when I heard someone call out "Jane?" I turned around to find TF (toxic friend) there with her crew.......this was so not good! We made small talk...she's had her hair cut and it looked great....she told me about her plans to go back to school in the Fall......I mentioned teaching preschool.....

The problem is I really do like this person.....thats the problem....this relationship is really NOT good for me......its one I need to avoid...and one I keep getting sucked back into.

I mentioned meeting her to Lloyd and the first thing he said was 'no....don't get involved'...and I know he's right because I always end up hurt and feeling let down again.

She emailed me when I got home. Telling me what a great preschool teacher I would make......so someone stop me from replying...or at least from, writing more than a quick thank you!

I drove back home and tried to call the lady about the preschool job again and she is out of the office AGAIN!!! So I left another message and hopefully she will get around to calling me.

I went to pick up Abigail from preschool and I asked Debbie, the teacher, about speaking to this lady...she laughed and explained that this lady can be a little unreliable about things...I said I was worried about not speaking to her and Debbie hugged me and said that this lady is just relieved to know she has someone keen to do the job - so she probably won't rush to get back in touch...

Well thats fine but kind of leaves me not knowing where I stand re plans for the Fall or what I have to get done before then (ie first aid etc) geez I could be a serial killer for all they know or have a police record.....surely they should check these things out before relying on the fact that I am interested....

Anyway, Debbie seems to think I am worrying about nothing and it will all work out...but my Mom arrives next week and then we will be busy for the summer and so I'm not sure how often I will be home to field calls or attend meetings or interviews.....or courses....

So I am home now.....Sam is whiney today.....its raining so we can't go outside to play.....I need to clean up a bit.

This afternoon we have the architect coming to meet us and talk about our plans for the kitchen........Lloyd is finishing work early to be here.....

It looks as though I will be running in the rain tonight!
