Hopefully Julie & I both will have peachicks next year!! so we can sure hook you all up!!!!
News flash: I GOT A JOB!!!!!!
I went w/Mom to get the stuff for Thanksgiving dinner. Then I got home & not 5 minutes later the phone rang & it was Lisa -- offering me the receptionist/bookkeeper front desk position at her CPA firm - I start next Monday.
During the busy season, now through April, I'll be 40 hours a week for the most part, but the rest of the year I'll be Mon-Thurs! off for 3 days - Fri thru Sun! every week!!!!!!!
I was starting to sweat having to go to work at
Walmart or Lowe's or temping for minimum wage & this is NOT minimum wage by a long shot - it pays well & is a small office -- 4 women -- a NICE office -- I can dress nice again! -- and the hours, Oh gee, after all these years of being at work at 7 a.m., the hours are 8:30-4:30 -- decent hours - not up at the crack of dawn... Can I tell you, I really, really, really wanted this job!!!!
Now I have to go back into town tomorrow w/Mom & put together a "business casual" wardrobe -- I have nothing!!!! 9 years of jeans & sneakers....maybe 2 good outfits to my name.....and I have to do this tomorrow before the big "Black Friday" Christmas rush starts -- it was already crazy at the mall today (we didn't go in it but you drive right past it to get to
Walmart).
One thing I can honestly say, is that my life is never boring --- it takes more turns than a roller coaster!
My folks & Jim were so happy they were almost crying. Me, too! I just got my Christmas present early!
