Not so booming.

Well, since the economy took a dump I must say that job prospects are at their worst. I keep looking for the perfect job and have yet to really pinpoint anything.

Having the kids home this week has been miserable and so I'm thinking more and more about going back full-time. I'd have to find daycare for Emmy full-time then I'd have to work on getting Graem into some summer camps.

The coordination of all of this seems nearly impossible. Not to mention, I have to figure out - at the end of the day - with camps, daycare, transporation, fancy clothes - how much I'm actually going to take home!

God knows we can't operate at a loss!!!

Show me the money, baby!

After the market crashed a few months ago we have been looking for something new to invest our wealth into. We've looked at international markets and they're really unstable.

At this point I'm ready to buy gold bullion. The one thing about gold, silver, and other precious metals is that year after year they offer a consistent investment.

Not to mention, their demand always higher than the supply. Obviously, by using basic laws of economics you can see that this might be a good idea for the future!

The US Gold Bureau is an industry leader with gold, silver, and precious metals. You can buy the metals in many different types of ways and even store them through the provider.

This is a noteworthy investment and a great way to diversify your portfolio. Especially during these unstable market times!

Update on the job search.

I submitted a resume a few weeks ago for a part-time administrative assistant job but I have yet to hear back. The job sounded ideal.

Work from a home office, part-time, benefits, and flexible hours. Plus, it was affiliated with Cornell.

I'm pretty sure they had tons of over-qualified applicants - but I was expecting to hear something.

Ugh....got to love living in Ithaca and a small college town.

Long time, no post!

SORRY!

I've been getting my ass kicked with sick kids and partner! Then there's myself.

I was down and out because I had to have my gallbladder out. I got a pretty bad staph infection that I think I got at our local shitty hospital. Ugh.

Now I'm on the mend and I think that the kids are starting to feel better too.

I promise to blog more!
