Books Books Books

So things are going really well here. I've got the job at Barnes and Noble which I really like, the only drawback is the 14 hour days I have to put in between the two jobs, but it'll only be for the season, so if anyone wants books let me know now before it's too late. I'm kinda hoping they'll keep me, if they'd be willing to only schedule me 1 day a week. I just want to keep the job for the discount, most of my paychecks from there will be staying there anyway. But seriously, I get a 30% discount all the time and in a couple of weeks I'll get 40% for a week, (that's when I'll be doing most of my Christmas shopping) so just let me know if you need anything.

So Kevin and I got the $8000 for being first time home buyers and we paid off his school and my car!! So hooray!!! We own both of our cars now. I feel so proud.
Anyway, I hope all is well with everyone!!! Have a fantastic day!!!!

Same old, same old

So I'm finally getting around to writing another entry in my blog. Takes me long enough right? Anyway, things have been going fairly well around here. The shower is getting close to being finished, (we might be able to start tiling next week!!!!). There isn't really anything new going on. We just do all the same old stuff just about every day. Kevin still likes his job in Salt lake, but the graveyard shift is starting to get to him as well as the commute. So starting in December, if he doesn't have another offer by then, he'll be working in the Ogden Courts as the constable. He'll work Monday-Friday 8-5 which will be so nice because I'll actually get a chance to spend some time with him. That is if I don't get this job at Barnes and Noble. That's right, I applied at Barnes and Noble for the holiday season. I had the interview today and I thought it went well, until he told me that there were over 200 applicants and they are interviewing all of them and only 8 positions. Brian, the interviewer, said I did well, but I can never tell if they really mean it or if it's just what they tell everyone!!! So, hopefully I get it, if not then oh well. It's just something to keep me busy so I won't be too hurt if I don't get it.
But life is pretty good. I can't complain about anything other than never getting to see Kevin, but we do what we have to do to get things done and that's all you can do. Well, I'm off to watch an episode of Monk and the new series White Collar!!!

Storm might be over

So Kevin got a job, thanks to Joe. He starts on Monday. I can't wait until we have a steady two paychecks coming in again. We definitely can't make it off of what I make alone. I'm just glad that the city paid him his vacation so that we'd have enough to get by until he could find a job. We don't know exactly what his position is yet, but we'll find out soon enough. We also don't know how much he'll be getting paid, but anything is better than nothing and we know the lowest is could be so we're hoping it might be a little more, but if not, we can still get by.
God is really watching out for us. Thanks for everyone help and support. It would've been much more difficult without you guys!!
