Hey kids!

Just slept for 12 hours *stretch* - I loooooooove being on vacation! Only a week to go now, then it's back to my booooring Pedro-less life in Frankfurt.

Jodes, just go back to bed and roll around, you'll surely fall asleep. That's what I do after pedro leaves to work at 5:30am - I just lie there in the dark and suddenly zzzzzzzz :lol:

Mel, do you still live in a hotel in Coventry or have they hooked you up with a hotel yet?

I am excited to see the Dark Knight - especially in a nice movie theatre. The theatre in which they play the original versions back n Frankfurt is such a piece of #######, small like a shoebox, dirty, unholstery ripped of the seats, seats broken and they teared the carpet out two years ago and haven't replaced it. Plus the screens are tiny.

I will have to make sure I take a pillow with me, so I can hide behind it. Action/scary movies are hard on my nerves. I was forced to see 'House of wax' w/ Paris Hilton a few years back and spent the entire movie hiding behind my knee. :lol:

Time fore brekkie and a cuppa!

hmm, this job search is getting on my nerves.. I get a lot of responses and they ask me my rate which I say is 8 to 10 dollars an hour and then I never hear back.. I am wondering if my rate is too high... :unsure: I don't think it is, I think it is fair...

I am sorry to hear Marilyn! 8-10 dollars doesn't sound much really.

Where do you look for jobs?

In California it actually sounds like you're lo-balling yourself! I'm sure even when Alex was working in a store in his teens with no previous experience he was earning that much. Perhaps you're under-selling yourself?

Still living in a hotel. At the Village at the moment, really want my boss to figure out a permenant place though. Can't find anywhere to stay week after next. For some reason who knows why Coventry is booked out!!!! Trying to get into the Woodside conference centre. Its hard when I'm trying to keep the budget down and still stay close enough to work.

Have fun at the movies.

I am looking on Craigslist and a couple of nanny job sites and from what I see that seems to be the average rate.... some people are asking for less and some people are asking for more..

Well, average rate is a good rate to go for and if people aren't prepared to pay that much you probably wouldn't want to work for them anyway. I wouldn't decrease your amount - sadly job hunting can just be a lengthy and frustrating process anyway. :( Good luck with your search!
