I'll Shop Till I Drop

This job is not what I thought it was going to be. But it is not all bad. I was asked on Wednesday if I would lead one of the trips. Basically, that means I'm a chauffer. But that also means you get to go and do whatever the trip is. I really want to go on the horseback riding one later this month **crossing my fingers** But the trip monday is to the mall in town. Okay not the greatest event but I get to spend the afternoon at the mall and get paid holiday pay the entire time! So, this job does have it's perks I suppose.

I have decided what trips I will be going on in the next couple of months. I am going to Texas and NYC. California is just not going to happen. Someday I'll get out there!

Now I'm off to go read because I haven't read a blog in way too long and I'm missing it all very much!!

It has been about a month since I found out that I got hired with the MWR. Everything takes its sweet time in Pensacola. But I am happy to say that there has been some progress. I filled out all the paper work this morning.

One of the many sheets of paper that I had to sign was one stating that I don't know anyone who is planning to attack the U.S. Wait a minute...What?! Not saying I do know anyone...because I don't. But why in the world would anyone really admit that they do, when they are being hired. Clearly this form is not working because people are still sneaking into the system and attacks are happening. hmmm makes ya wonder who took the time to come up with that form and what better things could they have been doing.

I start training on Monday. Which is pretty cool since my sister leave on Saturday. So that gives me one whole day to enjoy my last day as just a wife.  What will I be doing? Probably catching up on all the blog reading I have been missing out on. Which leads me to my next thought. I would really like to comment more. At first when I started reading other blogs I didn't comment at all...this was all new to me and I am a shy person even when it comes to doing things online. But now that I am getting more comfortable and well sometimes I just love the things people say and I need to tell them right there and then that they are absolutly amazing to me.

 But I still find i don't always know what to say. I love reading about kids and families because I want some little ones of my own one day and I've always been a baby person. So I'll read something and think it's very interesting but not have anything brilliant to say. This is when I wish there was a button such as the one on facebook that I could check and say "Christine Likes it" Because that's truely how I feel and I want you to know I read what you write I just don't have anything to add. So I'm wondering am I the only one who feels this way? I suppose that will be my New Years Resolution as it's already the 8th and I haven't set one.

I got the job!

I just got a phone call and I got the job. :)

I really wasn't expecting that because they told me at the interview if I didn't hear from them on Monday than I wasn't choosen. Since I didn't get a phone call on Monday I just assumed that they picked someone else and that was that. Ony my way home from the gym today I got the call saying they picked me! So exciting. in just a few short weeks I will be a working woman again. And it's a job that uses my degree. Can you tell I'm really happy!
