I started school last week and I have still been out looking for a job on my off time. School is fun but I don't think I'll be taking anymore online classes. I just don't know what she wants and I have to keep emailing the teacher. My math class is rather interesting; imagine Archie Bunker teaching college math. Yeah, good times, hahahaha!! He's a character and I'm not sure we are learning anything but at least my $100 math book has a CD tutorial, it helps a lot.
I had my second and third interview today for Kmart and I believe I got the job (I find out for sure tomorrow). HOORAY!!! I felt so good coming home today. I can only work on Friday's, Saturday's and Sunday's while I'm in school but they are more than happy to work with me on that. I should go in on Monday to sign all the paperwork and take my drug test and as soon as the test and my background check comes back I'll get my schedule. I think she liked the fact that I was very honest with her, but I stayed away from the fact that I haven't worked this whole time because of a workplace injury. I didn't lie, though, I told her I had an accident and while I was out my position was phased out and it was during the same time when the rest of America was getting laid off and even Walgreen's at the time were cutting back on cashier hours. Not one lie.
I'll be working in the housewares department, which will be a lot of folding towels and such. I don't plan on staying there forever and I have zero plans on ever working full time and I did tell her I couldn't unload the truck. There are men who work in the stock room who can handle the furniture so I will never have to do that. I just feel like a big fat load has been taken off my shoulders. I can breath again.
I went to a chiropractor yesterday and he took an x-ray of my neck before he got started. Then he showed something to me. It's 2 vertebrae at the bottom of my neck and he showed me how they have grown oddly around each other. He told me he see's a lot of this type of injury (yes, injury) in boxers, and let me know there's nothing that can be done about it now, it's been a very long time. Yeah, it's been a very long time since a man has hit me. But the damage has been done and as I had already guessed, the damage is still causing me problems (he said this is why I have so many headaches and he believes it's why I have no feeling in the last 2 fingers of my left hand and I will probably never get the feeling back because there is nothing that can be done now). It made me realize how happy I am that I am single, as sad as that is to say. Well, I never thought I would make it out of this life without a couple of scars, I made it this far and I still plan on going farther. I'm certainly not going to let this get me down, I'm just too damn happy today :)
