Yoga was nice today. I sat next to a lady who has lived in both Canada and Australia - her husband worked (or maybe still works) for a big paper company called Daishowa, which also has a factory in Port Angeles, WA, where my parents live. It was nice to have someone to talk to:)

The weather is really misty and rainy today - it started raining yesterday afternoon, and of course it's made the temperature much colder. I like the rain actually - it's peaceful. But it makes me sleepy too - I hope I can stay awake this afternoon to watch my download of Supernatural .

I'm still set to go to this job interview on Monday afternoon. It will be an all-day event since I'll have to leave my house before 10 a.m. just to get to the interview by 2:30. The interview should be over by 4 p.m. and I imagine I won't get home until about 6:30 or so... Honestly I don't want to go to this interview because I feel pretty sure that I will get the job with the the company I interviewed with a month ago (which I'll call Company A). I spoke to the guy from Company A this morning and he basically assured me that I will be hired if they get 8 or more contracts this year. Right now, they are still waiting for the school district and the city of Fuji to make their decision about how they will split the available contracts between two companies, and apparently the "powers that be" work on their own time schedule.
I could be waiting another week or longer before there's an answer. Funny thing - the guy from Company A actually mentioned the other company (the one I'll interview with on Monday) by name on the phone today. Of course I had to keep quiet about applying with that rival company - I've not heard as many good things about them and he even told me that the school district wasn't as happy with them as they were with Company A. I just have a strong feeling that Company A would be better to work for than the other company in terms of management, salary and other benefits. Nonetheless, I'm still going to this other interview on Monday to be safe - "just in case"...

Anyway, I plan to relax this weekend with my husband and not worry. Something is bound to work out with one of these companies. My husband has a lead on a possible job too, through a friend of his. He should find out more by the time I find out about mine.

Well, I'll leave you today with a picture I took about a week ago, when the moon was full. The sun had not yet set, and the moon was glowing right above the mountains which I can see from my bedroom window.



happy Friday and happy weekend everyone... stay warm and dry.
