Chaos

Our lives are very chaotic right now! Last weekend was a whirlwind! I had an interview for a new job on Saturday afternoon and then Charles and I went to my company picnic in Lafayette. The picnic was lovely with some free food and prizes....Charles is the only on in our little group that won anything! After the picnic we went to meet up with some of my good friends for one of their birthdays and then to the hookah bar. It was great to finally meet my good friends boyfriend! We really enjoyed our time in Lafayette.

My interview went really well and I am set to go back to meet the people in person today at 3:00 and am very excited. It is much closer to where we live now and it has so many possibilities for my future. It is probably a little premature to be talking about this since I have no idea if I will actually get this job...all I know is that it is looking good! The job is posted from a staffing company so my first interview was over the phone. Once I meet them in person today they will give the staffing company feed back and hopefully they will love me! I can be very convincing and I know that if they give me the chance I will be a huge asset to their company!

I became CPR certified yesterday! I have wanted to do this for a long time but never really looked into how to do that. My boss came up to me and offered me the chance to do it online (paid for by them)! It is exciting for me because I honestly feel better about my abilities in an emergency....even just while watching my nieces and nephew.

My nephew is coming up to Indy to have surgery at Riley on Friday. He has a wide variety of health issues and we are hoping that this procedure on Friday will resolve some of them. I would appreciate any and all prayers that you can send our way. Hopefully I will have good news to report later.

A Good Deed in my Time of Need

  I have been going through some rough stuff lately and have been pretty bummed. My uncle recently passed away and I have an aunt who is now in hospice after a long battle with cancer. My nephew also has some health issues he and his parents have been trying to deal with. It is all very stressful. All of that plus I am very unhappy at my job and have been dealing with all of that added stress.

 A lady at work and I have been chatting a lot over the past month or so and we often talk about our animals. The other day she came up to me in the morning and told me she had a suprise for me after work. I came out after work and found a table she made for Keena! It's a raised feeder to put her food and water on! I have been wanting one since I got her because raised feeders are really important for great danes to help prevent bloat. Most of them are really expensive and a lot are not even tall enough for her! This table is the perfect height for Miss Keena and I couldn't be happier! This gift and gesture of kindness means a lot to me. For those of you who know me...Keena is very important to me and I want the best for her. I will never forget the wonderful woman who has only been in my life and known me for a little over a month. :)

Keena's lovely new table!

I'm making her wait for a photo opp....she is just thinking, "can I eat it now?"

She made it the absolute perfect height!!
