Training for the new job!!
1st week of training is going very well. It's like getting to find out the answer to every question I ever pondered while I was a CSR at Sedgwick!!! Which me (the learning nerd) adores! The first day of training I had that moment of "what did I get myself into" feeling... but it passed rather quickly and I've found myself actually getting myself ( Read more... ) -
Promotion!
So about a week and a half ago I took a chance and applied for a Disability Specialist position at work, despite only having 6 months experience in claims instead of the desired year for the position. I thought I had pretty decent odds at having a shot as they're expanding our office greatly, but I wasn't really fully convinced I'd get it. So I ( Read more... ) -
Two Years Together and Getting Along Away From Home
Well, I finished my read 10 books goal and have started a read 25 books goal... I want to have it done within 1 year, which means one book every two weeks... I think this is completely doable with my current pace.... maybe even sooner. I have really loved the reading again and it's inspiring my writing, which is even better ( Read more... ) -

I know I haven't been updating much...

Los Angels, Vegas and Joy
So, I booked my hotel room for Vegas today! Christian and I are going to go to hang out with Lee and his fiance (who I've heard SO much about and yet STILL haven't met) and I can not tell you how excited I am. We're all staying at the Luxor, which I've never stayed at. I'm really pumped for a nice dinner out (not too nice!) and walking the strip ( Read more... ) -
Things are good!! :)
I can't imagine anything more perfect than having a couple of Newcastles, eating some pizza hut pizzas, and watching some netflix rentals with my little family (Christian and Bowser ( Read more... ) -
New job!
So, I got offered a new job today! They offered me $1 more than the highest starting pay normally gets. This is especially funny because my main downside to the job was the highest starting pay was still $1 an hour under what I was shooting for to make and now I'll be making my goal rate! I am so glad I turned down all those jobs for less than I ( Read more... ) -
Christian Got the Job!!
Christian got the job sculpting toothbrushes for children! He starts Monday! He wanted this job so much that it was pretty much the best news ever. Steady pay, full benefits! And he gets to start out sculpting right out of school! I don't think we could be any happier! With him in this job and me in one of the jobs I'm looking at? We'll be ( Read more... )
