It begins today...

Got my REAL machine set up last night, and cranked out a bunch of resumes to take to the Career Tech event at the Expo Center today.

After that, now that I have an address and phone number,
I can start applying for jobs on-line.
Don't want to jinx myself, but the prospects for IT work in Tulsa look pretty good.

Today should be very educational...
It will help me get a better feel for the market because I
can talk directly to the people who are hiring and see exactly what they're looking for out here and what the corporate culture is like.
I know it will be a bit different than where I came from.

I'd be most appreciative if anyone would care to remember me in their prayers today.

The new place is coming together slowly but surely...
It should feel like home in a few weeks....
It's no longer like camping as of yesterday.

Got out of bed today, had coffee and my REAL computer....

It's a good feeling!

Thanks GP & shousse!

Thanks, RB, we'll check them out.

This is very cool. It shows earthquakes happening around the world as we speak.
If you put your mouse over it, it shows the magnitude and date, and area. Amazing.

Hey, GC, there's no place like home, is there? Good luck with your job search today. I'm sure you'll do fine. Doug's had a couple of good interviews already, and has two possibilities next week. He's out visiting companies every day, as well as applying online. Something will come for both of you, I know it, because the IT area is really strong. Say hi to the rest of the family for me. We need to get together again soon.

You are in my prayers today, CG! You and Doug too, Colleen.

Very cool find on the net, RB. I see there was an earthquake in Vanatua Islands. I think they have had Survivor on those islands.

[Cali_Okie_Girl]

your in my prayers too!

Anyone talk to LadyRobyn lately? She hasn't posted in a while. MK, have you seen her?

[mkfarnam]

Not recently, but I think "Jimeez" posted yesterday.

Hiya Colleen... MK "sees" me in emails and when we pass on the road. Yeah, I have been a little quiet... we have some *stuff* going on and I promise I will post as soon as I know more about that *stuff*...

I've just been playing with my pictures and making slideshows set to music for one of our neighbors.
