I GOT THE JOB!!!!

i'm going to be a bank teller! i went in last thursday for my interview and the bank manager at wells fargo, kim, called me this afternoon and said that they would like me to work for them! :) i'm sooooo excited. and the hours will work perfectly with my service schedule. M-T: 1:15 to 5:15 and F: 2:15-6:15. i am just so amazed at the way that this has worked out. jehovah really does provide when you do your best to put him first. and on top of that i'm also working 2 nights a week for walt doing janitorial. so things are looking up. :) which probably means that something else is going to go dreadfully wrong...but let's try to have a positive attitude! so i start at the bank on thursday. well, there is my good news for the day that i wanted to share. :)

breaking new: baby owl rescued!!

tonight i was driving lou home and we spotted something on the road. as we drove past we both were thinking: 'that looked like an owl!' so we turned around to look again. at first i was freaking out cuz it just looked like a big ball of fur stuck in the middle of the road. then lou got out of the car with me too and we walked over to it....THEN IT OPENED ITS EYES!!! so we ran screaming back to the car. then we just sat and watched for a bit. then it turned its head all the way around at us and was blinking. then it started flapping its wings too...but it couldn't move. so then i had the genius idea to go get carol downey (the local vet that is also deb's bible study, so i know her) since she lives just down the road. so we went and got her and she came with her daughter and picked the baby owl up in a towel. so she's taking it home to see what's wrong with it. i'll call her tomorrow for updates! :) lou and i have decided to name it oscar! what an adventure!!

okay, how cute is this boy?? ACE!! american idol...here he comes! so for the first time in my life i think i have an (almost) celebrity crush! ;) lol. and here's a plus: he can sing! boy can he sing! :D :D

new discovery

my pioneer partner, deb, is an amazing seamstress and designer. she was talking about fabric and things the other day and told me about this fabric designer named amy butler. deb said that her fabrics reminded her of me. so i got online and checked out her website. i am SO in love with these fabrics. they are bright and cheery and i wish they scrapbook paper! :P i'm such a dork. anyway, i just wanted to share. enjoy!
