Well, we have been together for eleven years today, and married three years. To us, even though we've only been married for a few years, we only count that we've been together eleven years. After being together this long, it was kinda one of those things where we wished each other a happy anniversary and that was it. I did make Dusty one of his favorite meals...sour cream chicken enchiladas with rice and beans. It would have been nice to skip work, but my coworker and friend Jennifer was on vacation with her family and I was responsible for her work, so I did the responsible thing and didn't call in. It's hard to get someone to watch the kids that we trust. We don't get many offers since we've had Olivia. It doesn't really matter though. The way we figure it, we love our little ones and one day we'll be able to have some alone time. Livi is starting to sleep through the night, so that gives us from 8pm until we go to sleep, which is nice. We mainly snuggle on the couch and watch the boob tube or play a game of cards or something. On another note...
I GOT THE JOB!!!!
I got the call around lunch today. It's ironic because I was looking the TMF website and noticed that the job had disappeared. I knew for a fact that it meant they had filled the position. So I called the HR dept and talked to the woman and she kinda got rude with me and asked me if she didn't explain how the employment process worked. Long story short, she said she would call me if there was any word from the director. Well, not ten minutes later, I got a call from Bonnie, just giving me a heads up that they had just turned in the paperwork (that's why the job had disapeared off the site) and they wanted me to join the team!! I was elated. Anyhow, while I was still on the phone with Bonnie, the TMF HR woman was calling me, so Bonnie let me answer the other line. It was the woman I had just talked to and she was letting me know that they have choose me for the job. I didn't tell her that I was just on the phone with Bonnie and I'm not sure why, but I just let it go. She explained to me the next steps and said I would need to come in and have a drug test done in the morning. I went and talked to my boss and she was happy for me. I told her that it was her fault that I got the job because she gave me such a good performance evaluation (which I gave to Bonnie at the end of the interview). I'm just so excited to get started. I hope I know what I'm getting myself into. :)
