My new best friends...

The story of my life right now...applying for jobs. CareerBuilder.com, Monster.com and Indeed.com have become my best friends over the last few weeks. I have been applying for a job a day (or so it seems) for the last several days. I am praying a door will open up soon and I can get back to work.

I have been trying to keep myself occupied at home with cleaning and organizing; but I am running out of these type of things to do. I have also been trying to make it to the gym to work out since I have free time and really have nothing better I could do for myself than to get healthier. I have also been trying to catch up on scrapbooking (when I get in the mood to be creative). I have been finding things on Pinterest that I think would be fun and creative to make either for my house or for friends and family...however no job equals cutting down on non essential spending. Hopefully when I get a new job I will be able to find the time to do some of these projects.

So basically this is the story of my life right now : - )

I did have a very fun and family filled weekend the 13th-15th celebrating my birthday with Mom, Dad, Julie, Adam, Luke and the hubby. The ladies went shopping while the gents went to the movies and then we met up for dinner at Sonny's BBQ in Nicholasville... It was so YUMMY!!!

I can't wait to celebrate my sister's b-day in February in Columbus!!

The craziness that is my life...

Sorry it has been so long since I last posted. A lot has happened since then. We celebrated Christmas in Ohio with my family (which was awesome---pics and a post to come in the near future), I found out that the company I was working for is downsizing and my position had been eliminated (effective immediately), and now I am studying for my PHR certification exam (which is Jan 13th) and applying for jobs as much as I can.

Yesterday was my 28th birthday... nothing different about turning 28 from when I turned 27. I did feel like a very special woman yesterday though. All the birthday wishes from friends and family on facebook, two dozen roses (1 dozen from my parents and 1 dozen from Jason), phone calls from my family singing happy birthday, a red velvet cake from my dear friend Erin and several cards. All made me feel so very special!!

Today, I have an interview at 2:30pm with Hunter Manufacturing located here in Lexington for an HR position. I am a little nervous, but pray that God will ease my nerves and allow me to be confident in my interview.

Tonight Jason and I will be going out to dinner with Chris and Erin (as we have the past few years) to celebrate Chris's birthday (today Jan 5th) and my birthday (yesterday Jan 4th). This has become a fun tradition since my family is not close by to do what we traditionally did on birthdays (go out to dinner at the birthday person's choice).

I think today will turn out to be a wonderful day... will need to put my nose to the grindstone tomorrow to get reading/studying done for the PHR exam.

Say some prayers for me today and continually that God will open doors and bless me with a job opportunity. Thank you all!!

Have a blessed day!!!
