Things are looking up!

I hate that the last year has been nothing but sadness and bummer things on this blog. I hate that I have not had better to write about. But I think things are looking up. My spirits seem to be anyway.

~I have an interview tomorrow for a job twice a week.
~I have another interview for a different job twice a week on Wednesday or Thursday.
~both I can take G to.
~I love, love, love the family I am working for on Friday. Now if I could just get Mom to go back to work more time
~My van got a boo-boo the other day (long story short Zack hit a curb in the ice and broke my tire off) The estimate from the body place was $1700 and since we forgot to drop our deductible it was $1000 before they would cover anything! yikes. So we called our wonderful mechanic, Dave, and he was able to beat it by $500! Yeah! And he will take payments! We so appreciate this!
~We found out this month that the credit union we have our car loans at has a two month per year payment skipping program, just in case you need it. So this month were we run out of money, we skipped the payment.
~I have worked for G diapers in their booths and Grayson has modeled for them, all in exchange of diapers. To say I have a surplus is an understatement. I listed 13 of them on a used diaper website today (they were new) and got what I was asking with in hours of posting them! $184 richer!

These may all seem like little things but since last year it was nothing but lists and lists of bad things in a row, at least I am able to find a few good things in a row. Hey, maybe its like Elle and Erin keep saying. Maybe things are turning around in 09.
