So the month of July has been crazy, hectic, stressful, etc for me. First I want to state that yes all paperwork was turned in at BYU successfully thanks to my sister-in-law and her boyfriend. They took time (several hours) to go to various offices to pick up and drop off forms required for graduation. There were phone calls and texts between us during the day: "Do you want immediate release?" "It costs X to get copies made." "Is the payment information correct?" But it is all done now. I even, being the wonderfully paranoid person I am, called the graduate studies office to confirm paperwork completion. There's a website where you can check the progress of paperwork and the thesis. It still said Library Offices so of course I had to call the important office to speak with someone to ensure that yes, the paperwork is there and yes it counts even if the internet site is behind. Not that I don't believe my wonderful sister-in-law and the boyfriend - I mean there were calls me from the library offices so I knew things were in there. I got a text stating they went to the graduate studies building and turned it in. I just wanted to stave off the panic attack concerning website.
Then I had an interview at a temp agency. Job market in Tucson is very poor at the moment. So I went there to get my paperwork in and hopefully increase the likelihood of getting a job. I was told about a job beginning August 1st. I should have heard confirmation yesterday. Sigh.
My folks are off on a trip at the moment. They are considered suitable supervisors/guardians for my niece so they are collecting her from her mother and taking her down to Key West to visit with my brother. Hopefully he is not a complete idiot and ruins the chance I have to see her at Christmas. But it is my brother and heaven knows sometimes he cannot keep his mouth shut.
Otherwise I am looking forward to July ending. This month has been crazy and upsetting. Also, next month my in-laws will be here for a visit. I am so excited!
