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!!

Storm's a comin......

You know the old saying that bad things come in three's?? Or even the saying when it rains it pours? Well I'm really not looking forward to it. So far we're two for three and I can feel the storm coming.

First Kevin loses his job, (ok I've come to grips with it now), but then today Miya decided to eat some liquid bug killer that she knocked over and we had to take her to the emergency vet clinic. She's there right now while we're paying about $450.00 for it. With Kevin losing his job I've become one of those penny pinchers so it was really hard to pay for it, but at the same time I don't want Miya to die and yes, I am more worried about her than the money, but I hate it. I'm so not looking forward to seeing what the third bad thing to happen to us will be. I just have this feeling that Kevin is going to end up cutting off a finger or something. Admit it, you can see it happening. I just pray that the lord will help us through this difficult time. And thanks to everyone for all of their support and concern. You guys are great.
