Well January is here and gone and I can't believe how quickly it went! I got back into the groove of teaching and had my evaluations completed. Things went pretty good as far as I can tell so that's a relief.
I figured being Januray that I should call and check my current balances on my loans and well, let me tell you, Interest is going to be the Death of me! I realized after a few quick calls that I'm paying out about $9 (give or take) every DAY!! With that, I realized I should probably do something about it. So... I took a walk over the hill to Boston Pizza and was hired to start the next evening. I work taking the deilvery orders. Answering the phone, packing up the food, and basically re-stocking shelves when they're low. Nothing serious, pretty much a no-brainer. They had neglected to see that I'm a FULL TIME TEACHER, and have thus scheduled me to work both Friday and Saturday nights for the past two weekends. This isn't flying well with me, but, being an additional job, I really don't need to stay. I will have to talk to the manager regarding this, becasue my school job comes first, then my life. So.. that is that!
Other than that, I haven't been up to too much. Janelle, Jan and I started playing volleyball on Thursday nights through the YMCA. It's really fun. We're pretty much the youngest people there by years and years, but it's all good! Some excercise and fun to get out once a week.
I guess that's the updates for now, I hope that February is more interesting!
Bye for now,
Jessica

I raise a glass to you for taking a second job. I think I have basically done the same (as your dad can attest!!). Anyway yeah I was filling in for Merr at the hockey games as the "beer girl" but now they put me on the payroll and I am working for the Rankins concert Friday! So that's good because it's only 2-3 hours at a time (ie you can still go out afterwards) and the tips are pretty good. The people are nice at the bar too. So anyway hopefully they will keep calling for help whenever there are events like that :))
The boston pizza gig sounds ok, are the shifts long? I realized I needed to do something too because the student loans + mortgage thing is rough!! Geoff is taking little carpentry projects on the side too. Anyway I guess I will tell you all this and more later :D
Bye for now & miss you lots..
PS- I had a dream last night that I gave you a $3.99 french comic book as a *late* present for being my bridesmaid hahahaha, what's up with that!?!
