Random Tid Bits

It's been awhile, since I've done a "Random Tid Bits" post. What can I say? I've been busy applying for jobs. Fingers crossed I get the one I have a 2nd interview with tomorrow. 

1. My 1st grader nephew Edison wants to marry his sister Margaret. He got a bit annoyed when my sister told him that he has to marry someone he's not related to. 
   
   
   
   
   

   I finally got to meet Miss Margaret, and actually took the photo above. I called her Miss. Margareet, and Edison corrected me right away. I'm a huge fan of nicknames. It's better than what Mica called her...Maggot.
   
   
   
   
2. Isaak and my conversation:
   
   Me: PMS is so annoying! 
   Isaak: What's that?
   Me: Premenstrual Syndrome.
   Issak: Who that that?
   Me: I do.
   Isaak: Really?! I didn't know you were sick with something serious. What is it? *Insert a concerned look on his face. 
   Me: A period.
   Isaak: Oh...silence! 
   
   
3. Mica just started in person high school this week. They are only taking 1/2 students at a time, and it's on a system where they go 2 days, then remote 3, then go 3 days, then remote 2... The boy did his hair 4 times over again on the first day.
   
   How's school going where you live? Does it seem smooth, or rough all around?
    
4. It took Mica awhile to come home by bus.
   
   Me: What took so long, for you to get home? 
   Mica: They combined two busses, so my bus went all the way out to Western Omaha. You know where all the houses look alike. 
   Me: It's usually referred to West Omaha. I get you. 
   
   
5. Isaak didn't know who Steve Jobs is. 
   
   Mica: Isaak you don't know who Steve Jobs is! You need to use the dictionary more! 
   Travis: Because Steve Jobs is in the dictionary. What does one look up, "Steve" or "Jobs"? 
   We all laughed! 

Leather #Portfolio Folder Padfolio for Business School Office Conference Presentation Interview Review

In a week Mica starts his first camp for the Healthcare Academy. I wanted him to have something to keep all his papers together all fancy like. 

Thankfully we got a Leather Portfolio for him to use. 

Inside:

The inside has different pockets for him to put papers. Right now I have his certificate that he got. He can put other papers in there too.

There's a pen holder as well.

I Love That...

It feels good to hold. Leather just it a fancy material! 

The pockets are unique in that they are 3 different sizes. 

It's great for many uses. It would be wonderful for job interviews, school, or business use.

I Wish That...

It had a zipper, so papers in no way will fly out on a windy day. It does have a rubber texture that holds things in. 

I wish it had one more holder, for an additional pen. I mean what if one goes out? I always carry more than one, just in case.

Cost:

You can get it on Amazon Prime for $11.99 https://www.amazon.com/Leather-Portfolio-Folder-Conference-Presentation-Letter-Size-Writing-Pad-Notepad/dp/B07PXVRK9J?psc=1&SubscriptionId=AKIAIJKR6IY4BV5FKK7A&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B07PXVRK9J/ref=sr_1_5&ie=UTF8.

Do you have something fancy to hold important papers?

Random Tid Bits

1. I pushed Mica to apply to the Healthcare Academy at school. His school has a Healthcare Academy and a Zoo Academy. He's like, "Mom I don't want to." I'm like, "Once upon a time you wanted to be a Pediatrician. I know you want to be an Astronomer now, but it's good to keep your options open. It's better to figure out what you don't want to do now, than to pay for it with college education, and find out you don't want to do it."
   
   He got in. Now he's kind of excited about it.
   
   It helps that his homeroom teacher from last year heads it up.


2. Mica also is now a morning Anchor at school. He's excited about that. He said, "I have a good strategy Mom! I'm going to sound excited. No one else that does the morning announcements ever sounds excited."


3. I've had 2 job interviews lately. Both could be freelance. The first one heads up most of the expo's in Omaha. They could use some design work. The position was for social media.
   
   I got there way too early. 20 minutes too early. I sat in the parking lot, and waited until I was 13 minutes early. Then I waited, and waited some more. The interviewer was 20 minutes late.
   
   I was observing things like, hey that's the same vacuum we have at work. Maybe that's some kind of sign.
   
   
   Do you believe in signs?
   
   
   
4. The second interview was for 10 to 30 hours a week for Gallup. They have benefits even though I'd work very little hours. I could possibly keep my job here, and also work there. I'd just have to keep it minimal. It so interests me. The interview was through a Google Chat. It was convenient, but I'd feel like it was more real if it was face to face. I applied through a job site. While the lady interviewed me I was searching her up to find her. Nothing! Then the guy that she said would be my supervisor I couldn't find either. I feel uneasy about it now.


5. I am kind of bummed. I had a great idea, sent it over to a business. Then I never heard back from them. I want to shout out, "Respond!" There's been times were I've blogged about a company, mentioned a few things in the review that they could have. The companies sometimes message me saying that they like my ideas. I guess anyone wants to be valued. A product I use every day, and have an opinion about should be valued by the company. Do you feel this way?
