News..

First things first: I guess i should tell you that i don't work at the Daily Grind anymore. No, i didn't just quit. It was the most bizzare thing.. I got a call from Lori, my boss, saying," hey, we heard that you paid off your loan, that's great! I was just thinking about Jody and how she has been looking for another job and could really use the money right now. How would you feel about giving her your management possition and working just a couple days a week instead?" WOW!

Rewind: Monday, Jody came over to the house, and we were working on getting her a new job. She looked thru classifieds and called to see who was hiring. She has been hating her Frito Lay job and just needed something different. Full time possibly. We actually prayed together that the Lord would provide a job for her.... Little did i know it would be.. um... my job.

I've rarely been faced with an option that was so clearly what God wanted me to do. This was one of them. Jody now has the night shift manager possition and i am no longer on the schedule. I could go back for a few hours a week, at less pay.. I just thought.. naw.. the girls need those hours more than me.. So the chapter at the Daily Grind is done. I loved every minute of it and it was my favorite job ever.

Sooo i'm back to being a domestic goddess :) I'm actually kind of sad about this, (who knew??) but i know it is the right thing and the Lord will provide for my knitting addiction in some other way tee hee.. speaking of..
I'm afraid to share this with you, i don't want you to think i'm some freak.. but i am. I started a new blog, about my projects. Mostly knitting and sowing. If you care, take a look: Denise & i . Your feedback is soo encouraging.
