are you going to nanny me?

So for those of you that read my last post, I was jobless yesterday but had gone on two interviews on Tuesday. The nannying interview I had seemed like such a great job and I was really really praying that I would get it. After the interview she told me that she would talk to her husband this week and probably make a decision sometime next week, well the next morning (yesterday) I got a call from her saying that she talked to her husband and they wanted to offer me the job!! So not only did I get the job, but I started this morning! So yesterday I went to their house and my basic "duties" were explained to me, I wake up their two kids (Hannah, 6 and Jonathan, 2) at 6:30 a.m. and get them ready for school, get them breakfast and take them to school, then I come back to the house and do whatever house chores they have for me. Well after I took the tour of their house, I was leaving and Hannah runs up to me and goes, "Are you going to be here tomorrow to nanny me?" AWWWW!! What a cutie!! So anyways, like I said, I started this morning and everything went SOOOOOOO smoothly. The kids are so great and Hannah is so helpful! So today I just did laundry, did the dishes and picked up the kids' toys. SUCH A GREAT JOB!!! WHAT A BLESSING!!!

the hunt.

Well, I had two job interviews yesterday...I'm really really praying that I get both of them. They would be so perfect for me! I'm resting in the fact that whatever happens in regards to a job this summer is what God wants for me this summer, so there's no need to stress about it. Sometimes though, I feel like saying that I'm okay because I'm in God's will is easier than actually doing it. Sometimes I get a little stressed about the fact that I have a very very minimal income right now (consisting of babysitting). If you get some time today, could you say a little prayer for my job situation? Thanks. Peace.

if they're so wise...

So I thought about blogging yesterday, but seeing as how I had just got my wisdom teeth pulled out, I figured all of my eager fans (ha ha please) could wait until today to read of my experience. So if you know me well, you know that i have a VERY low pain tolerance. Well, I let my dentist know the very same thing. So I'm laying in the dentist chair and my dentist comes in to give me my numbing shots. I swear he gave me like 15 (i'm pretty sure i'm not exaggerating). None of those hurt EXCEPT the two that he did on the roof of my mouth....OUCH! Anyways, he pulled out all 4 without any complications and now I just have 4 holes in my mouth. I've been living off of Jello and vitamin water for two days and then the Perry's surprised me and brought me a milk shake!! What great friends! Anyways, maybe I'll put pics up of my teeth to gross everyone out :) if anyone knows why they're called wisdom teeth let me know...if they're so wise, why do you have to get them taken out? peace.

osteoporosis.

Today I went with my dad on a job and helped him. I've come to the conclusion and am somewhat satisfied that this summer may just be the summer of odd jobs. So anyways, spent the day with my dad cleaning the tile in a lady's bathroom, which ended up looking amazing. When we got home (very tired and hungry) I went and took a shower then my dad attempted to make dinner (which he did very well). He made bourbon chicken, rice and peas. Not to take away from his skills but the chicken was frozen bourbon chicken, my mom had made the rice earlier, and the peas were in a can. I so love my dad! Then after dinner I decided that osteoporosis is too great a risk in my future to ignore (due to the fact that I am not a big dairy fan), so I took it upon myself to drink a glass of milk. I had to add Ovaltine, otherwise, the milk wouldn't have happened. Gotta take care of my future self's bones. Milk, the drink of champions. Peace.

sleep brings back the 80's in my life.

I spent all day today filling out job applications, making a resume, cleaning and a little bit of lounge time. After doing this until about 3 p.m. I finally decided to get ready which in all honesty was about the first time I looked in the mirror all day. To my surprise I found that my hair had all day been in a side pony tail. It's happened before, but trust me...never on purpose. I guess before bed I put my hair in a pony tail to keep it from overtaking my face while I sleep, but because I'm an active sleeper, this pony tail turned into a side pony tail. This took me back to my childhood for a brief second with stirrup pants, scrunchies, balloon bows and.........(drum roll, please) my side pony tail. Anyway, that was random, but since this fashion statement was a part of my entire day, I figured it was significant enough to share. Peace.

too much of a good thing.

May...my favorite month in the whole year. New flowers, pretty green grass, perfect cool weather, GRADUATION FROM COLLEGE, etc. but with May, comes lots and lots and lots of graduation parties! I love celebrating with all of my friends and am so honored to share that special day with them but I tell ya, I'm pooped! So instead of making my first blog on here really exciting and fun...I'm cutting it short to talk to my man for the night and hit the hay. Too much of a good thing.........
