Another New Job!
So, as my last blog read, I got a job at JC Penney that I started last Friday. On Monday I actually had a job interview scheduled that I had scheduled even before the JC Penney interview so I went. He called me today and I am hired! WooHoo! It is more money, not the kind of money that I was making at AAA but it will definitely help us out quite a bit.
I have decided to keep my job at JC Penney and ask them if I can still work on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, we need the extra money right now to get back on our feet and on track. Plus I actually really really love it at JC Penney and would love for that to be a permanent job however $8.50 and hour isn’t gonna do it for us unfortunately, maybe in Oregon it would but definitely not down here in Cali. People at JC are so incredibly nice and I have met people that have been there for 20, 25 & 40 years and they all genuinely love their jobs. When I went to the interview on Monday I prayed and asked God that if He didn’t want me to have the job then I wouldn’t get it, and if He wanted me to have it then they would offer it to me… simple as that... I got the job… so I know this is what God wants for me. I have full confidence that He is steering my life in the right direction right now and I am comforted by that. I don’t want to worry any longer I need to have the steadfast faith that He will provide for us.
Gordon and I finally got the Christmas tree up last night, we put the lights on… I finally get my white lights this year. Every year we have had color lights because Gordon insists on them, however we made a compromise this year that we will rotate every other years with the white lights, so I think that is gonna be a fair trade. I don’t think I will be decorating the rest of the house this year, Christmas is gonna be rather mellow this year not only for us but I know my side and his side, just so much has gone on this year emotionally and financially. I will still be in celebration of my Lord and God’s birth but the Yule tide carol will be a very mellow one at that. I am just happy to have my tree up.
Gordon left this morning to go to San Francisco over night for work, so I am home right now really bored. It is so quiet without him here at night & I really don’t like it. But the dogs will be stoked to sleep in bed with me tonight so that will be at least nice for them, plus they are like little heaters, I may not even need the heater on tonight.
