Wow, take long time for the pages to load at the hawaiistories site so I wonder if maybe time fo fix something or what?

Okay, well …. *doing a happy happy joy joy dance in my chair* … I got the job! Yeah baby, now I’m a “working girl” or will be next week.  I’m so excited!  My friend tried to make me worry about whether I got it or not.  He told me that he didn’t know but the owner told him he was torn between the two applicants and the aptitude test would be the deciding factor.  Thank goodness I love doing Logic puzzles since majority of the questions were basic logic questions.  I hope I aced it so I can rag my friend who said he only had one incorrect answer.  Ha!  He’s a guy, and he expects me to believe he almost aced the test? Duh!

My daughter was approached by a dentist the other day while she was at work and he was impressed at how great a job she was doing at multitasking.  According to her she was on the phone while ringer up a customer and answering someone else’s questions.  She thought he was bogus because he was dressed very casually but he gave her a business card and told her to call his office because he wants her to work at his office.

She waited until yesterday to give his office a call, the receptionist answered and when Meg gave her name, the receptionist told Meg that she’s been waiting for her call because the dentist kept asking if she had called yet.  She made an appointment to meet and fill the application this morning.  The pay is better than her present job but she has very good benefits at her present job.  The work hours are M-F 9-5 which is 100% better than the hours she has now which most times end at 9p.m so she doesn’t have too much quality time with Kamalani.  At least now she’ll be home in enough time to spend with Kamalani until her bedtime, which is 9 p.m.  She’s not going to quit her present job because the benefits are really good so she asked her boss if she could go to part-time instead.  They really like her there and they want her to move up in the world so they’re very supportive and her boss agreed to put her on part-time status.

Speaking of Kamalani, her birthday was on Wednesday and she’s now a grown up 7 year old. Rather than taking her out to eat on her birthday, I asked her what she wanted me to cook for her special birthday dinner at home.  She said she wanted her favorite.  HAWAIIAN food.  Luckily my friend just got back from Hawaii and brought my bags of goodies from my brother.  A gallon size bag of Kalua pig and 4 gallon size bags of poi.  I also made tako poke and lomi lomi salmon to complete the Hawaii food menu.  We got her a small birthday cake at Safeway and had some Light ice cream for dessert.  It was much better than going out, the food was sooooooo ono.

Tomorrow is her birthday party.  I set it up at the Roller Skate barn.  They have party packages for kids with pizza, drinks and skate rental for 2 hours.  Should be fun! (NOT for me)
