Bakery

So, today was day #2 of work. I got to decorate some cakes, and put out all the fresh baked bread. I'm doing good about not lusting after the sugary yummy things we sell. I was worried about that actually, as sugar is my weakness. Today, I had no problem working with the icing, and had a GREAT time! I did on the other hand really really want to bring home a loaf of bread, but we don't really eat a lot bread so I left it at the store.

I'm nervous about the next time I go in. The full time people have all moved on, (today was the last one's last day) So, now the bakery is staffed with people doing part time. Even the manager of the dept, is a temporary rotating baker. we will see how it turns out.

Tomorrow I'm going to the quilt show with my mum-in-law. She came down, cause it's the biggest show in the country I think. It's international. I'm excited! Maybe I'll remember/ be allowed to take pictures!

I got a job!

I got a call today letting me know I got a position as a bakery clerk at a grocery store. I'm pretty excited that I will get to do a little cake decorating!

I'm a little bummed that the store is 25 miles away, and it's evenings and weekends, but it's a job! Hopefully I'll be able to go to church one day. I did a little training today, and I'm going back tomorrow to do some more. yay!

So.. lately

Last weekend was our 1 year anniversary. We went to a FANCY steakhouse, and had the best steaks of our lives, and spent the nite in a great deal on a hotel (love name your own price) Saved about $80 bucks! Then we went to a gun show, and saw the toy story double feature. We had a lot of fun, and it was great to think back on the last year. A friend from church said that it would be our worst, and let's hope so! It was hard, but we both survived!

Since then I've had an informal interview, and a real interview. No idea really what they thought of me. Hoping to get a call, but still sending out my resume like it's water. Really, I send it out at a minimum of 3x a day. I've been looking since the middle of august, I've applied to A TON of jobs. Not crying, but would really like a job.

My mother-in-law will be down sometime next week to go to a HUGE quilt show. Maybe I will get to go with her if I'm still unemployed. I want to spend time with her, but I really want a job too. Wow, that's next week. Time's creeping along fast.

I've been having a GREAT time going to bible study with the ladies at the Nazarene church. Wed. mornings we meet to do a Beth Moore bible study about the Patriarchs (watch a video and discuss) but the most exciting thing the last 2 weeks is a small group of us have been going to filmings of Beth Moore's new study on Revelations. It's so awesome for lots of reasons. 1. more time with Godly women is never bad. 2. there are about 3200 women at the study on Tuesdays Wow! 3. Nothing like worshiping with that many people. 4. I'm spending time out of the house with others 5. Growing closer to God is always so exciting!

So, I'm busy mostly, but can't wait to have my mother-in-law visit for company!

You should visit me too!
