oh!

I have another job interview. It's next Friday (not tomorrow, but the following Friday). It's a receptionist job for a health-care office. It's a bit of a drive from my place, but it's a job interview. I got another call today about a position I applied for, but turns out it's only a part-time position. Did not notice that on the job description. Oh well. Hopefully something else will turn up. :)

Moving!

Guess what! I am moving again. To Arizona. I started moving this last weekend. We rented a Jeep Liberty and surprisingly were able to fit most of my boxes into the car. Emily's birthday was Monday, and I felt bad that we were not home for her birthday. So we got together with a number of our cousins at my Aunts house for dinner and my Aunt got a cake for her. It was meant as a surprise, BUT one of the little ones went up to Emily as she was coming into the house after swimming and pushed her back saying "no no no, you will ruin the secret surprise!" So much for a surprise. :)

Anyways, it was a good visit. I am getting set up with one of my best friends brothers-in-law. A blind date. :) That should be interesting. I think he is barely my height if that. And he is younger than I am. Not sure how much younger.

I had an interview Monday with a Plasma place that was hiring...and they offered me a position...but...you know when you get that feeling that you shouldn't take the job? I got that feeling driving into the parking lot. So I have applied at a number of other places, and I hope to get a position at one of these other places. I think that I can get something better than the plasma place.

How am I doing? I am okay, actually. I am not hurting nearly as much as I used to. I dream about Warren quite often, but I don't have a tough time after dreaming about him anymore. So I really think I am doing quite a bit better. I think that I will not be attending a singles ward when I really do move to AZ though. I really don't want anything to do with singles wards and branches for quite a while actually. I loved being in a family ward way too much in Alabama. There are so many wonderful opportunities to serve in family wards anyways. For example, my FAVORITE calling in Alabama was primary song leader. You can't get that calling in a singles ward. :)

That's all folks. :)

Hot guy alert

Okay, so I am at work, it's pretty much totally slowed down, and so I am messing around on the computer...when this lovely guy walks in. Oh my word, he looks really good. He asks to see one of the sellers here, so I page the seller to let him know he has someone here to see him. He says he will be a few minutes, so I tell this masterpiece of a man to take a seat. He hands me his hand, introduces himself and is looking at me with the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, and I kid you not! Oh my, he looked so beautiful. So what do I do? I get nervous and tongue-tied and so I don't really say much of anything to him. He asks if I am new, and I say I am a temp here. And then that is the end of it. He sits down, and I pretend that I have something worthwhile to do. Why am I always like this??? WHY!?! :)
He is luscious! Mmm-mmm good!
Okay, just had to share that. Have a good day!

Repentance: A wonderful thing

Okay, so most of you who read my blog are members of the Church, but for those who aren't, indulge me in sharing a story of the Prophet Joseph Smith Jr. One day he went to work on translating the Book of Mormon, a process by which he needed to be in tune with the Spirit. He went into the room, and didn't say a word. He couldn't do it. He walked out of the room, went to his wife, and asked her forgiveness for a disagreement they just had had. After reconciling with his wife, the Prophet Joseph was able to again return to the work of translating. What an amazing story, right? Well, I had my taste of it tonight.
I was about to read the scriptures when I was really troubled by something that had happened between my Mom and I earlier. I walked into my bathroom and I found one of my letters opened and out on the counter. It was a bill. And to be honest, it was past due, although I should not have been charged because I ended my service. Anyways, I got upset because my Mom had opened my mail (my Dad never opens the mail, so I knew it was my Mom). I walked over to her and asked her why she opened it. She said because the envelope had "final notice" written on the envelope. I asked her to never open my mail again. She looked flustered and upset, but she turned away and said okay, and so I walked back to my room.
Now, as I am trying to read the scriptures, I realize that I need to do something for my Mom to let her know that I forgive her for opening my letter and to let her know that I love her. So I made a card for her out of construction paper (I know, so elementary school, right?). I put it on her chair so she could find it there when she was done with the computer. I go over to her and give her a kiss and a hug. She then asks if I had read her email to me. I said no, and so she pulled it up. Turns out she didn't notice who the letter was addressed to until after she had opened the letter. Now I feel like dirt! I felt so bad. Anyways, she asked me to forgive her. So I went and grabbed the card I made for her, and she laughed at the fact it was made out of construction paper and read the card. We both were smiling and laughing and felt a weight lifted. What a wonderful feeling.
I just thought I would share that with all of you. It's one of those sweet experiences that are worth more than all the money in the world.
Oh, and now I can read the scriptures! :)
================================================
Elizabeth has a job interview Monday in AZ. Pray for me! Noon AZ time. I applied for a receptionist position. Right now I just need a job, so that is what I am going for.
================================================
Oh, and Mr. I want to hang out with you and possibly date you that spread that rumor about him and me didn't show up to FHE, so I wasn't able to talk to him. I doubt I will really get a chance to see him before I leave anyways. Won't be here this Sunday, the Sunday after that is stake conference, and won't be at FHE next Monday. At least, it is very likely that I won't be there. Since Emily and I will be leaving after my interview to come back, we will probably get into town at around 9:00pm. Sucks, cause that is Emily's birthday. BUT I am going to make it up to her. At least she gets to be in AZ for the weekend and gets to hang with Barron! She is happy about that, I know. :)

Sunday

Okay, ready for a twist? So after Church at break the fast, the guy that Warren said he had heard the rumor about ran into me. I looked offended but quickly broke into a smile and jokingly told him I heard a rumor that he and I were dating. He said that he started it, and that he wouldn't mind hanging out with me. I gave him the most surprised look I have and asked him if he was being serious. He said downright serious. Ha! He even tried to talk me into staying. He asked what I thought about it, and I said I would get back to him. I wasn't about to say anything to him that EVERYONE else might hear. I will let him down. We can be friends, but I am not in the market for anything more than that.
Just thought I would share that. :) Oh, and Warren called me and asked me if we were still friends. He asked whether we should stop talking. I was about to go on a walk, so I told him I would have to get back to him, but I really think we should stop talking completely. That way I don't go on this roller coaster anymore. So, here goes nothing.
Have a wonderful Sabbath everyone!
