- The beach was fun, but not warm enough. #
We took a happy little family trip to South Sandusky beach over the weekend. Apparently, over time, I had forgotten how vile that beach is. The sand was littered with cigarette butts. Not just a few, they were everywhere. All you had to do was kick up a little sand, and POOF there they were.
The kids managed to coax me into the muddy water where we walked on sharp rocks and what felt like chunks of broken concrete. After a large dead bug and a discarded cigarette butt floated past, I decided I was done. Yuck.
We came home and everyone immediately showered. Our brand new suits where stained brown, and we reeked. I won’t be back. I’ll buy a membership to the rec club and take the kids swimming there.
I feel dirty just talking about it.
After the first week of being unemployed, I think I’m pretty adjusted. I’m searching for jobs on Monster, HotJobs, and the local classifieds of course. Nothing seems to be suitable for me so far, but I’m early in the game. You would think since so many have computers, more places would need someone to maintain and assist with them.
I wonder if I could make it as freelance computer repair. Probably I’d be best at protecting new computers. They tend to come with “trial” antivirus and other programs, but I could setup antivirus, spyware protection, and a firewall that would never expire and is free.
Yes, the average consumer could do this themselves in a day or so, but would they? Usually not. Plus, I could get rid of the “crapware” like those “trial” programs Dell and Gateway ship on their systems. Just a thought.
This free time in my day has allowed me to clean out excess stuff around the house. I’m about done with all the laundry. I got the dishwasher emptied and reloaded.
I am definitely a good housewife.
