Need a cheap date.

Come check out Derek Webb tonight at the Old Goshen Theatre. He is awesome and will challenge you in your thought process and teach you a bit or too at the same time.

Plus you get to see Marie Barrett too. What a deal!!! Just wanted to put a plug out there for the two people who check out my blog.

Great news too....Someone is interested in buying the store that I work at so we might not have to close...Yippppppeeeee!!!!! It is so nice having a store close and not having to drive to Mishawaka everytime I need something.

Just to let you all know

I did not get the job...reason I don't have a license.

frustration: I have never had that, so why did you interview me if that was why you weren't going to hire me. HELLO people.

The other thing that annoys me is that they told the girl who got the job on Wednesday morning before school. By thursday at 2:30 I still had not heard anything. SO I called them. Just to get the bad news. In my mind it was a little unprofessional.

SO I am looking at starting school in January...money pending. I have a couple other options outside the school system. I guess you could say, they will be loosing me entirely, because if they are going to tell me taking classes and getting started will make me a better candidate...I will show them.

OK I know can release my anger and move on. I should say disappointment. It just simply sucks....no other word descibes it.

My parents are here so we are going to have a good time and hang out and that will get my mind off of it till monday.

OK so i haven't updated in a while and I will tell you why in a few minutes.

Life has been a little crazy
you know. I have been helping a friend
plan a wedding in 1 1/2 months...not a moment to spare
then I have been job searching, because the last interview didn't
work out...My neice had a birthday this week, my parents are coming to
town. you know the basics of the first fall month. Then the
scrapbooking store has got me doing a couple of classes
but no one is signing up.. Life has been a little frustrating
a little hectec and still alot of fun.

I finally got an interview at Goshen Middle School this week
I should find out next week how it went.
My prayer of course is that I get it. But I know there is a huge
chance that won't happen...so I am preparing for what is to come
if it doesn't. I am ok with the fact that I have made it through an interview
and now I can say I have done it. God blessed me with an awesome
interview and now I know i CAN do it again. this next time with lots
of easy...I am sure I will be nervous again. it is normal..I wouldn't be human
if I wasn't. Plus I should count my chickens before there hatched,
I still might get the job, right?

Today we are headed wedding dress shopping.
our bridesmaid ones look like this. they were a steal. too.

gotta go

following through on promises

So I promised you pictures of the new decorative blocks...I have to say I stole the idea...I was completely uncreative this month. Can't wait for the christmas blocks and the baby ones I am doing in January or Feb...Just in time for the 14 baby showers I might be attending. Then I also got to finish a few lo for the store too. But with adorable pictures of my new baby niece Brietta and her two adorable sisters..

Aren't these guys stinkin' cute. So adorable. love them so much and I am so happy I get pictures frequently...so I can keep up with their lives.



I also wanted to leave you with some pictures of our local superstar. Here he is....Matt Zook. I promise it is really him...I tried to zoom in as much as possible. Ok I will try another post. This one isn't working....Stinkin' blogger.

Update on the business of LiFe

wow it has been a while...Sorry I have been MIA...business is the key word for the day.

first i have been job hunting as many of you know for quite a while...looking for something that will help me get back to school...money as you know controls our lives whether we want it to or not...so finacially I have to make a switch in order to get back to school. So I got a call last week and have an interview for a new job on Monday afternoon. Please PRAY...this would open up alot of doors and get me back to school this year.

Then my pal Stace has bought a house and is moving in this weekend...so we have been painting and stuff..it is looking so homey...it is great. She used a rich burgundy in her bedroom..she called it a love nest I believe. hehe.. She and her finace are getting married in two months and so it was a little funny to hear. It was alot of fun to just hang out and talk and paint and take breaks...Can't wait to continue wedding planning too.

Then I have been working my but off at the store too. I have a monthly class that I have been teaching and I have a new neice to scrap, so I have been busy using new product to show different things to get you out of a rut. So here are some of the things i have been working on. Blogger hates me I can't upload them. so I guess I will try next time.

Also Our friend Matt entered a contest with B100 at the Landing which is a bar in South Bend...anyway the winner gets to open this Sunday at the B100 birthday bash...He WON!!!!! Congratulations Matt!!! can't wait to hear you tomorrow.

Also I have to give my hubbie props...he pasted his first of four CPA exams...He was so pumped and I am so excited for him. He so deserves to have these passed and out of the way. So he can get paid for the high expectations that people have of him. He is asked to do so much that is outside his level.....I pray the next three are as successful in the next two months.

By the way bro....i didn't get a phone call from you today....I believe that Purdue won, right? What was the score again??? :) Ok so it wasn't that big of a blowout but it was a win.

Signing off.

ok so a while back I promised some pictures and I am a little slow. So shoot me. I finally got them uploaded and so hear are a few. Her is one of Sarah and Chuck...beautiful bride. Then I have a few of the reception the rest aren't digital. So hear goes nothing.
Ok so I thought these were cute. below is my cousin and his wife and to the right is Mom and her brother the brides dad.




Below I couldn't get by with leaving out a few pictures of the most adorable little girls in the world.


I also needed to share what an amazing dad my husband is going to make some day. Look at him with these two. He lets them climb everywhere. I Love it.

Great day!!! My dog ate my earrings

So today was the first day I had to teach a class at the LSS. I was totally freaked. I have no problem teaching kids...but ADULTS>>>Freaky>>>>Scary>>>Intimidating. I don't know why but doing anything in front of my peers I am completely nervous. So I got there early and did some extra computer stuff for my MIL. She doesn't get along so well with a computer. So I help her out. She is the manger at the LSS. Then came six o'clock...the starting time for my class and NO ONE was there...can I repeat NO ONE!!!!! Now I thought I got stood up. that made me sad. How disappointing to go through all the prep work and then not have people show. OH well they paid right!!! I got there money. Then about 15 minutes later two of the three showed up....one lady totally inconsiderate. Didn't call to say she couldn't make it...she just didn't show. Nice Huh? the ladies were great and we had a great time and there blocks turned out great. I will take a picture tomorrow and post it this weekend. They are really great. It is going to be a monthly class at the store. It was great to start with a little class. It made it alot easier.

So I got home alittle bit ago and let Macy out of her kennel. I wasn't home more than 10 minutes and she snatched my earring of the end table and ran off. I couldn't tell what she had right away until I heard the crunch and saw one was missing. Then I chased her on our usual path and she of course got away enough and was too quick for me. In the process she swallowed the earring. ONE OF MY VERY FAVS. It almost makes me want to cry. This dog...what is she an alien. I don't know. I guess it is only a material possession. There just won't be another pair like those. SAD, SO SAD.

Have a great Friday!!!! :)
