I hope this isn't too late for you, Belts!

I know on the provincial level, they don't even look at resumes that come without a separate cover letter. Even if it's just a highlighting of the qualifications you lay out in more detail in the resume itself, they really, really like when you take your own demonstrated experience and apply it to what they're looking for in the cover letter.

Hey Hope, you there? Quick question: which do you think would be better : a) having a separate cover letter, or b) leaving it as that summary paragraph at the top of the resume?

actually Hope, its 3 brothers. Including kev there are 4 boys.

FBIL#3 can do no wrong in his dads eyes, FBIL#2 can do no wrong in moms eyes. Aaaand apparently it bothers her b/c FBIL#1, who seriously has a heart of gold, and Kevin, get along.

I seriously give up on this woman, but I am very glad Kevin is going to stick up for me, b/c truely, I'm not just playing the victim, I haven't done anything. I think alot of the supposed "fighting" between the SIL's is fabricated in FSIL#3's head to stir up some drama b/c she lives in a town of about 300 ppl and has lived there for 10 years, and honest to god has NO friends! no one can stand her!

Oy! Jen, that's quite the family dynamic, eh? Good for Kev for sorting out the drama on his side of the family - about time he manned up! Your MIL has issues - if she doesn't smarten up, she'll end up alienating her other two sons!

RE: Grumps: Woozy Weekend

Beltsie — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 23:23:48 GMT

Wow Jen. That sucks in one way, but in another way it's great. Cuz either way, you win!

Hey gals, back from quadding. Was pretty uhm...Eventful? got out there and my mom and dad looked at us funny and said "where's our quad?" we laughed, We thought they were kidding. They weren't. We lost it off the back of the trailer in the place we were camping though (THANK GOD!! if it would have fallen off on the hiway, someone could have been killed!) but it broke the piece that turns the tire(not the axel...something else) so yeah...felt like sh*t all weekend. Mom and dad weren't mad at all though, they were just glad it everyone was ok and there was no body damage to the quad. Pics are on my FB for anyone who wants to check 'em out.

EFMIL is on the loose again. FBIL#2 had a seziure last week, and apparently hasn't been well since. HE and FBIL#1 don't talk, due to a ridonkulous fight this summer. Anyway FBIL#1 went to drop something off at the F-IL's, and I guess FMIL lost it and basically said that no one cared about FBIL #2 and that Him (Fbil#1) and Kev were inconsiderate and obviously cared more about their wives than their families. Kevin is going over there to talk to them today, b/c this seriously in NO WAY involves us. We don't like the way FBIL#2 and his wife act (like no one else can POSSIBLY be as busy as them) but we still talk to them! we phoned as soon as we heard about the seziure. And I seriously have not done one thing to ANY of my FSIL's. I've been very amicable to them, even to FSIL #3, who is the one who's ruining my life in reguards to my F-IL's filling their heads with BS about things I supposedly said. I'm sending back the FG dress and giving my FSIL her money back b/c we're either A) eloping or B) I'm buying the one *I* want!

Hee hee! I love the doggles!!! All dogs should come with them. I wonder if they make them for cats....coggles?

Unrelated random thought: Is there a cross breed of dog that would produce a muggle? Like maybe mastiff/pug/beagle? Hmm.

Back from tour...saw kid, saw both sets of dads. Dad picked his dad/daughter dance song (the one I predicted he'd pick), and wants us to take waltz lessons so he doesn't look silly. Hee hee.

Hey Will, you going to add a side car to your bike for Uma to ride? lol :P[/quote]

I'm thinking about it. :D

At the rally on Friday I saw a Vespa scooter with a mini side car. It was pretty cool looking.[/quote]

OMD, that would be so cool! With a leather hat (with ear cutouts), goggles, and a white scarf! That would be kick ass![/quote]

Kinda like this, except I can't have her wear Harley stuff since I ride a Honda. lol!

I'm trying to take some pics of the lightening but it's too fast and crazy & I'm not about to stand outside and risk my life for a great picture.

I want to chase a tornado one day (with a guide of course) and I'm sure I'll get lightening pics then. :)

Hey to anyone that is here!!

Holy frig, the storms are never ending!! This is the 3rd in 4 hours & it's BAD!! My headache is never going to go away if this keeps up!

RE: Grumps: Woozy Weekend

sarahandrob2010 — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 20:01:55 GMT

No reply yet, eh? :(

I hope they're at least neutral, and not too hard about it.

RE: Grumps: Woozy Weekend

Beltsie — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 19:49:36 GMT

Well, I've been missing stuff lately, so I know my moms worried about me, so I wanted to let her know that I wasn't physically sick. Although, I'm still not sure what they think of mental issues. Guess I'll find out.

RE: Grumps: Woozy Weekend

williewonka — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 16:36:13 GMT

Love the hair colour Belts. Nice warm colour.

I just finished biking and am all sweaty. We had a nice lunch at Il Fornello with Paul's dad and his sisters. The one sister cannot WAIT to meet Uma, she's Billy's mom. The other one doesn't like animals, the freak. lol!

My best bud took a whole whack of Uma pics with my camera. I'm uploading them right now. I have beach volleyball soon so I'll post a few tomorrow. Some are of her sleeping, too cute!

I can't bring myself to tell my parents about the depression to their faces, so I just wrote out an email explaining the situation. Gah. [/quote]

don't feel bad! you didn't even have to tell them so they should just be glad that you did...you ok?

[quote][b]Beltsie (6/15/2008)[/b][hr]Hey Mags (and you other married Grumps), how many inspiration photos did you give your photog? I like their style (which is why I picked them), so I don't really know what to give them, or how many, or.... anything!

helpo![/quote]

i didn't really give him any...we talked about what i liked and didn't like - and he just seemed to get it....and i just loved everything i saw of his so i just decided to trust him!

the only picture i did give him was the invitation one, since we wanted to recreate it...everything else was him!

[quote]Just outlined the history of the situation, explained the breakdown, going on anti-depressants, and how I'm getting use to them now, so that's why I've been 'off' lately (my mom called this morning worried, since I bailed yet again on a family thing, saying I was 'sick').

Also said I didn't want sympathy, just support and understanding.[/quote]

Maybe I missed something, but what prompted the decision to "come clean"? Have they responded yet?

It's good to have it out in the open. At least now you don't feel like you're hiding it. Does it feel better? :)

Today on "FAPOS or Not" we have Couple A. Last night, FW dyed her hair while FH was out of town. Will he notice the obvious change in colour, from mousy brown, to racy auburn?

Let's find out.[/quote]

ROFL!!!

RE: Grumps: Woozy Weekend

hopeharris — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 15:05:13 GMT

Belts, the important thing is that you are telling them...not so much which medium you're choosing. If the email is a way that easiest for you, that's what matters.
