The job gods have been at my mercy...Muahahah!!!

SO...Guess what???

I GOT A JOB!!!
Hurray for me!!! I rock! I'm the best! Etc, Etc, Etc.
Yea, right...it's more like...it's about damn time!!!
I'm super excited. I think it's something I really have a knack for...not necessarily what I thought I would do with my life, but it's a really great place to work...just ask my friend Josh...he works there, too...oh no!!! That could kill me!!! J/K, Joshy!!!
So, my last day at my current job is next Friday.
Everything else is super great as well. Gabby just turned 9 on Sunday. Can you believe it? She's at her dad's for the second half of the Spring Break week, and I took tomorrow and Friday off from work...so yay...big break for me!!!
It's taking me since June, when I started seriously looking for a job, to get one...and I've been very frustrated and depressed with that, but today, as I was looking around the workplace that I've been for 8 years, I realized that it's probably a really good thing that it didn't happen until now. I don't deal that well with change if you haven't noticed, and being done with school was really hard on me, but now I've had some months to let that sink in, and now it's time to make a new change and let that one sink in. I'm a little nervous.
I first called my mom yesterday and we were giddy little school girls with excitment, and then I called back a few hours later, and said that I wasn't very excited anymore...now I have to be a big girl.

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...
