On The Bright Side...

After cringing at spending $80 a week on gas the last couple of weeks, things have settled down around here. DH is working his new job full time, and while things are run a little differently, it's a bit less stressful on him for now.

Of all the color scrubs they wanted, it was dark green. Guess what color DH didn't own? Yeah, green! Out of all of the scrubs he has, from purple to black to tons of blues (since that's pretty much what everyone else seems to use?) the one color he doesn't have is what they want - of course, Murphy's Law. lol Luckily, they said it didn't matter for now. (Whew! See? More easy going at the new job!)

And the weather folks have forecasted snow coming in this weekend. Normally I would be turning into henny penny freaking out, but this year, I can sit back and say HEY! We're prepared! Snowboots? Check! Snow shovel? Check! Flashlights ready? Check! Wood, gloves, extra water? Check, check, and check! I even bought snow pants for DH over the summer at the thrift store, so bring on the snow!

....doesn't mean I'd want to live in an area with lots of snow, but after the last few years, I'm prepared for the worst. You know what this means, right? We'll see one snowflake. LOL

Did I miss a post? Didn't know DH had a new job. Hope he likes it. This is like following a soap opera and missing a day; you can miss a lot of important plot twists.

Anon: He was supposed to start FT back in December, but his old job didn't want to let him go. They were saying they needed him to stay until they had some new folks in, then they kept dragging their heels with other excuses... it was getting old. But now the cord has been cut to his old job, and he's working this one only. :)

I hope you take a photo of that one snow flake and one of hubby in his snow pants!
Wishing you and your family all the best! It is very hard to find a job, any job these days due to the Economy!
God bless,
