The A-Z Challenge - Seven Letters...



I haven't abandoned the A-Z Challenge, I 've just  missed a few days.
Let's say seven to be exact. But I have excuses. The first being I worked my derriere off since last Wednesday. I labored at both my current jobs and I got a new job! I'm pretty excited about my new job because I really need money. But I'm experiencing a bit of fear concerning this new job. Will I catch on quickly enough? Will I be good enough and make the 90 day probation period? I can't sweat it because I have too much to do.

My second excuse for my absence from the A-Z Challenge is time. Almost every minute of my time this last week has been taken up by jobs or orientation for the new job or hours of housework. And the really sad part is, my house is still a wreck and I have piles of laundry and a broken dryer. Whatever. I'll just work around that I guess.

My last excuse is insanity. I want to keep all three of these jobs, but I can't. And I would be nuts to even try.

Lastly, I have a question. What the heck is a jitney? Beats me.

  1. I think a 'jitney' is a slag term for a car....well, not really slang, but used widely in the fifty's and sixty's as I recall...

  2. See, and my dilemma is finally making regular in my current job... less hours and less pay.

    And somehow making it all work out.

    Because somehow, just like in your case, it all will. :)

  3. Jitney = a 5 cent coin/ nickel. A car traveling on a regular route for a low price, usual fare was a nickel.

    Congrats on the new job! Jen Russell
