I got a job

It is not my dream job, but thank the Lord it will help! :) I got a job at goody's! I start Monday. HOWEVER, I posted my resume on a nashville based job seeker site, and someone called me today! I have an interview tomorrow at 1pm in Brentwood for an account manager position! Yee haw, they are hiring ASAP too! So that is good. Keep praying.

I made two pies on Tuesday. I took one to The Campbells, it was my apple pie. Brother Jerry said it was the best apple pie he had tasted in all of his 56 years (or 57, I can't remember)That made me feel good. I also made a grape pie. I know, you are thinking "gross, that can't be good" but you are wrong. I had the idea long ago, I was thinking why doesn't someone make a grape pie??? I like grapes, grapes are good, they are a fruit, and fruits go in pies. Well, wouldn't you know...in my grandma's cookbook from 1947 there is a recipe for grape pie. I kind of deviated from it, as I bought ingredients before actually reading the ingredient list. The recipe calls for concorde grapes. I just got plain on red seedless grapes. So next time I aim to follow it and use concorde grapes. Even though I used the wrong kind of grape it twas' downright delicious and my sister in law thought it was good too! So, if and I am sure hoping, but if I get to enter the national pie baking contest, I think I may enter, the GRAPE PIE! :)

I am not feeling to good, please pray for me. I have had a headache and felt nauseous and just wore out. I mowed one of Damons yard's today. I didn't want to load the riding mower up, so I just put the push mower in the truck and push mowed the whole thing. Took me about 1.5 hours and I am sure tired, but atleast I got it done for him and I am a good wife :)

Well ciao.

I guess I shall post

I admit...it's kind of hard to keep up with the blog scene now that I don't have a readily available internet source to go to. When I come here to the Library, I have so many things to do on the internet that blogging seems to take a back burner to job applications and such.

I do miss it.

Church is really busy, we have a lot of new things going on. A new youth thing is going on now, every wednesday night. I am a part of the activities committee, the leader is Ondra, assistants are Emily, Meg and as I said, myself. It should be fun. We are also in the middle of a big fundraising contest right now. I hope we raise a lot of money!

I have a job interview with Goodys today at 1:30. Pray for that, it would be something to take care of my car note. Not my dream job, but enough to get us by. You know, in times like these, I don't know how we make it. EXCEPT GOD. Damon and I are used to two incomes. We brought in a lot but had a lot going out. I dont mean by spending frivelously either or using up credit cards. It wasn't like that. But GOD ALWAYS pulls us through these "broke" times. It seems hard to make it on two incomes, yet when we are down to one income we always have what we need and then some. Its weird, but I won't complain! :)

Well, I need to get off her to go check other blogs. I officially have 43 minutes left on the internet and I want to use that to check things out! Love and peace out homies

No News

No job news. I haven't gotten a call back yet. I was in the top three. He said they would call me either friday or today. So...i wait....you know what they so though, a watch phone never rings. I am nervous. Mainly because this is really my last viable lead. If I don't get it, I am concerned about my next car payment. However, I have been praying if its Gods will for me to have it, then I would get it. If not, that I would not get it. He knows. But this is the hard part. Pray for us. I LOOOOVE staying home and being a house wife. I don't have kids yet, but I love having a clean house and dinner for my husband to come home to. We just cant afford it right now.So please pray for us.

On a lighter note, we went and looked at a car Saturday night. Not just any car...a 2006 mustang GT. Black. V-8. The works. It was hot, and I COULD SOOOO see myself driving it. Need a job though and would have to decide if I really wanted to give up my ROOOMY car for a hot sounding muscle car. :)

Well, peace out, I just applied for another job. PRAY! Love you mommy

My Birthday Surprise

Long time, no post. I know, I know...

Well, I shall get right to the point! I got a great birthday surprise!! My mommy! See my birthday is actually September 8th (this coming Friday) but Damon came to assembly Thursday night and asked me to meet him out front so he wouldn't have such a hard time finding me. Well, I knew something was happening (out of the ordinary) as he had eluded to a surprise for the past couple of months, that I knew would take place on Thursday. I thought it was something all romantic and gushy, so...as I make my way out to meet him in the front of the auditorium, I see him and hug him and so on...then here comes my momma outa nowhere. She said "surprise!" Whoa...had no idea. It was great. My mom's first assembly. I was so surprised and proud to have her there with me! For real, had NO idea!! I wish I woulda had sooome kind of idea, because I secured a single room! She had to sleep on microtels window ledge bed, which turned out to be more comfy than the bed. But I digress. Anyway...that was my birthday surprise. However, I will not discourage anyone from telling me happy bday again THIS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8th!! lol

Speaking of microtel...grrr at them. I have stayed there for 4 years, ner a problem. Well, wouldn't you know it, they were suuuch a pain this year! GRRR. I have NEVER paid up front, now I have to pay up front. BEFORE the stay. Of course, in a fit of rebellion and proving a point to damon, I cut my credit card up and gave it to him...course that didn't help me out to much at this point! Man I wish I wasn't so stubborn sometimes. Anyway....I call him to get the credit card number...she says, she can't just have a number she has to have the actual card to see it. GRR Then she says she already has the check in process started so if I don't give her a card I will lose my reservation and she will have to re-do it (which would mean I would lose my room possibly!) So I say, okay (since we are paying for everything with cash out of savings and the money isnt in our checking account)I know I dont have enough for all three nights of the room, but I ask her if I can secure one night. She says fine. We go to check out Sunday..and find out they have put the WHOLE thing on our debit card! The thing was, Damon paid them CASH for two nights already, after I had paid them one night. SOOO, they refunded us 80 something dollars, but still...good grief...I told her ONE night, not three!! Anyway....Next year I am going to save money and get somewhere a bit closer and a little friendlier. Even if it costs 60-70 a night! I was so upset!

Anyway, enough griping.

Pray, I have a job interview this Friday. This is for the job I really wanted, but I am still nervous! Its hopefully starting at 11.50-12.00 an hour and would start out part time for a while. (which I would love!!)

love you guys. bye
