Maybe this will work

Ok, I got here without the browser timing out and sending me to nowhere, so I may as well try to write a few words.

Whether it posts once or nine time, like last time, remains to be seen.

I had a meeting to go to on Wednesday – my first staff meeting with Mentor, and I asked as many questions as I wanted, specifically on this: I feel like I’m "making it up as I go along" and was told that that is a good description of what we do, that each client is different and there’s no set formula.

Ok, I was wondering about that. I work without supervision, independently. I clock in when I leave home and clock out when I get home. Transportation on the job will be compensated.

My boy started his Freshman year of High School this week, and so we didn’t have anything together until this weekend, but we’ll meet twice after school this next week, and probably on Sunday too. I will have two swing shifts on Friday and Saturday for my other job, working "on-call" in group homes this next week/

It looks like I’ll be able to make that full car payment this month, which is good; my low payments for the last year haven’t touched the principle of the loan on the car, and I NEED my car more than ever; I need it to go places with my mentee.

(I’m not thrilled with "mentee", but it’s better than "my boy" and might be less confusing for my readers.

OD has bee SLOW lately – my browser times out as likely as not, and so I haven’t been trying to get here much lately. This will be kind of a test – will this post just once, or multiple times?

I miss writing about my life here. Ten years in February. Nearly 4,000 entries (If I haven’t lost any). I’ve been Jones-ing on it, not writing here, and have been using Facebook as a substitute. If you’d like to see that and don’t know my name there, note me and I’ll tell you.

The pizza is cool enough to eat, so this is short so will it post???

The spell-check came up pretty fast – I guess I will find out, now.

Alright! One “save” and here it is!

Great news about you getting enough hours with the two jobs. Mentee. Maybe client?

Good deal on the full car payment! And yeah, OD has been a pain in the ass for some time now. I used to write all the time, I barely make an entry every two or three months. I’ve gone on to FB too, as you know. This job–it seems to be a good one for you! 🙂

OD’s been failing more and more often lately. With no one at the helm, it takes days, perhaps weeks for the powers that be to finally notice something’s wonky, and attempt to fix it. I really don’t know why the website is still up, except that Brucy still gets his few shillings for the banner and popup ads. 😛

OD has been strange lately I dl’d everything up to 9/6 just to be on the safe side

seems like od got faster over the weekend. i’m happy about that. good to hear you’ll be able to make your car payments. i think client sounds okay rather than mentee or my boy. take care,

i would use “client” to be clear about your relationship with him.
