Tuesday, August 26th was a wonderful day. Why, you ask? Because I finally got a job!!! I had given up on finding a nursing office job, and had started to look at the new stores going up in town (Lowes, Target, Micheal's crafts) and then a week ago Monday I got a call for an interview for a job that I had applied for back in April! A week ago Weds was my interview, and I found out that the job is exactly what I've been looking for, and even better! The hours are Days no later than 6pm, no major holidays, and No Weekends whatsoever!!! So, Tuesday I got the call to offer me the job, and I was ecstatic to say the very least, and yesterday was my pre-job paperwork with the HR dept. The office is part of the hospital network here in town, so I get some great benefits like tuition assistance after one year, and I am simply so very, very happy!! And Ben is very happy too... :) So, today we have to go up to the city and do some uniform shopping since I can't wear any of my old scrubs due to a color policy- LPNs have to wear white, maroon, or a combination of the two. Now I just have to get my wisdom teeth out in the next couple of months, by Dec 31st to be specific, and then... Let the babymaking commence!! :D
And on a different subject, I've got some more seriously cute pictures of the cats. Sam is really growing fast, she's over 4 lbs now, and the Thunderkitty won't tolerate her "antics" so much anymore.

Not that I blame her, especially when the kitten dive-bombs her from above...
So here the kittys were being good and snuggled in my lap while I was knitting, no doubt hoping to catch the yarn while I wasn't paying attention...

The peace and tranquility only lasted about 60 seconds after the picture was taken, though, then the kitten decided she needed a kitty ear-chew toy...

And these pictures were the cats taking a nap together in Ben's computer chair while I was surfing and checking email...


They are so good sometimes! I went downstairs shortly after this and the kitten followed me a few minutes later.
So, that's all the news right now. Maybe I'll post a picture of me and the uniform when I get it. And Penny has requested to see what our house looks like, so that'll be coming soon...
