Hello all,

The old place only has our mattress left and it is cleaner then I think it has ever been. Today I got some training on the new job at the storage place. It is a lot of stuff but all pretty easy. THe ladies I work for have everything written down so I should be ok. The couple who live in the apartment right now said that they would be out late tonight. So we are staying at my sister's house tonight. They are at work so it is just Kelly and I. She has two dogs and I have pluto so it took them all awhile to settle down and go to sleep. Tomorrow I plan on going to the new place early and seeing how much cleaning and painting needs to be done. hopefully they left it spic and span, but you know how that goes. Even if everything is sparkling you just have to clean it again just so you know that you know that it is clean you know? Then Thursday Nicole volunteered to come help paint. So I will do that and maybe move some in, Friday I babysit all day. Also Wed-Fri nights I work at the shelter so needless to say I will be tired.

I don't know how but I pulled something in my shoulder too. It hurts a bunch. Even to take deep breaths. Hopefully it will be better tomorrow. Because of this pain Kelly told me to rest earlier, so being the good wife that I am I humble obeyed, and now he is fast asleep and I am very much awake.

Kelly is very seriously considering taking an almost full time part-time job at Sam's club. This means he would still have his full time job plus this one. I have my reservations but I want him to do what ever he feels he needs to do. For those of you who pray please pray for him that he would do what God wants of him and that I would be ok with whatever that may be.

What a day!

Well, the day started with me going to my niece's school. You see she is 16, lives with her boyfriend in Austin, and isn't going to school. I've heard so many reasons why that I decided to go there and find out for myself. The assistant principal was very nice and helpful too, so with any luck or favor Shayna will re-registar tomorrow morning.

Then, I started packing the store, which is just an enormous task. Tomorrow a friend volunteered to help, well that isn't completely true...she is the same friend that has been working at the store, so she will probably get paid. Who knows when it will be complete? Not me. Supposedly we are to be out by the end of the week, but I don't see that happening.

Then, at noon, well I was about ten minutes late so we'll say 12:10, Kelly and I had a job interview. Are you curious? Well there is a storage unit off of mopac and 71 that has an apartment over them. The job is working in the office from 3:30-5:30 Tues-Fri and all day on Sat. It also includes maintance around the place. So we work together a total of 72 hours a month and anything over is extra $10 an hour and the apartment with all bills paid is our payment. The sisters interviewing us were very nice and they spoke to us as if the job was ours, but we should know at the end of the week.

Then, well I ate and took a nap, but later that evening a guy called about an ad Kelly put in craige's list to sell the truck. He came by, drove it, and decided to buy it. He gave Kelly a sizable down payment and will be back tomorrow with the rest of the money and to pick the truck up.

Talk about crazy. One thing after the other today. My life is changing in the matter of hours. No more store, new possible job, and no more monster truck. It is crazy.
