I've been looking for a PT job for a while now.. i've been sending out my resume and filling out applications for any rinky dink job that I thought I could physically do (theoretically.. I could probably be on disability bc of the leg damage, but i refuse.. but that also means i can't work at say, target.. or anything that requires me to be on my feet, or move things, or lift things.. or anything. even sitting in a chair for long periods of time is no bueno). Anyway.. I just want to find something, small. 10, 15 hrs a week. That might even be too much for me, but I won't know until I try. I had a very informal interview at a little candy shop, but it was meh and apparently they didn't love me because they didn't call me back LOL
but I just got a call to schedule an interview as a temp receptionist in the intake department of a medical office here (they mostly deal with babies, and like wic families). It's perfect as it's only 10 hrs a week, and again only a temporary position (through september). This let's me gain the experience for my resume and test out the waters physically with .. you know a defined end date in case it really is too much for me. I'm really excited and hopeful. So please fingers crossed that they love me to pieces during my interview next week :]

and of course, if they don't.. fingers crossed that another good fit comes along! It's slim pickings with the type of job I'd be able to handle. I can't go back to my previous field :[ (i worked direct care with special needs children and adults).. so I have to find something else!
