We've kind of let up on the car hunt as of late. It seemed a little pointless after hitting so many lots and coming up empty on results. It feels good to not hunt so intensely. It's been a better week.
Caleb has another out-of-town job trip this weekend so we will be going down to Anaheim area and staying right next to DISNEY LAND!! :) I think we're even staying in the castle hotel. :) I love being married!
We were going to spend sunday in the park, but be agreed that wo should just go into the free area with all of the little shops, then we can spend the rest of the day looking at possible cars in that area. Better prices.
There are so many more options in that area! It would be really nice to come home with our second car!
Keep praying! :)
Today I got a phone call from Laton Elementary saying they would like to have me in for an interview on Wednasday at 1:00pm. Oh boy!! I am SO excited to finally have my foot in the door. I was suggested the job by the childrens ministries co-director at church. I volunteer there once a week and usually have 12-15 two-year-olds running around. Aparently her daughter works with some autistic children out in clovis, and it just turned out that the day after I spoke with her, her daughter had a co-worker walk out on the class! So, open position!! I applied yesterday, and got called for the interview today! Praise God.
So we'll see. I know it's an older class and I was hoping for a younger class of mild-to-moderate and not necessissarily autistic, but I'll take what I can get! There's also a chance they may only hire me as a substitute, but that would be ok...I would just have to have a different class every day...eesh...SO pray I get a special ed ASSISTANT position. :)
Something pretty nuts happened today at work (grocery shopping 6 hours a weeek). I had just returned from the store and was putting food away in the garage, when I heard a thump and a scream inside. So I (literaly) threw the groceries all over the garage floor and ran inside. My boss had fallen onto the floor next to the fridge. I ran up and told her to stay still, but she insisted she was fine after she caught her breath. Then she insisted I let her try to get up herself, just in case something like this happens when I'm NOT there (God forbid). It took her a while an a little coaching, but she did it! She actually made it back up! I was really relieved she could do it. Makes me feel better about leaving her there alone.
Ha, I just remembered another thing that happened at work (this was on wed). I went to Save Mart and got serenaded by the bagger. He has Down Syndrome, but it definitely made my day. He had taken my groceries to my car as usual, then he told me he was the real replacement Elvis. Then he sang to me "I'll Have A Blue Christmas"...shaking his leg like elvis and holding up an imaginary micriphone. :)
I like that this one ended on such a happy note!! Literally :) And have a blast down south :D
