Well, it happened . . .

on the 18th of September . . . I turned another year older. Sadly, not any wiser though! LOL

Jason had an interview on Saturday at Covenant Hospital and it went really well. We hope to be hearing Monday or Tuesday from HR and we are praying about that. It will be such a load off of my shoulders and I can then move out on my own as well, which is what I am really looking forward to! I love living with my sis and BIL, but I'm starting to run out of closet space! LOL

Nina will be here Saturday and I am counting the minutes! I haven't seen her since late February. My only regret is that I am unable to take time off from work so that we can spend more time together, but we will have evenings and part of the weekend. She leaves the following Saturday and I plan to cram in as much family time as possible. I want her to get back to New Hampshire and get incredibly homesick and ask to come home! What a devious plotter I am! I had no idea I had it in me! LOL

For my birthday, on Wednesday night, we celebrated at church. My sis, Lilly, gave me some jewelry that I loved! My sis, Eva, gave me a gift certificate to Beall's because she knows there's an outfit there that I am dying to own! I will probably be going out there in a couple of weeks to get the outfit! I hope it's still there!

Then on Thursday, Sears had a luncheon for me. They had a cookie cake from Mrs. Field's brought in for me. I hadn't had one of those in way too many years! It was a nice celebration!

Then today, after church, Lilly tells me that my oldest brother, Gilbert, needed to talk to our mom and I was to drive her over there immediately. I was a bundle of nerves as to why we had to do this! Once we got there though, it turned out it was a surprise birthday dinner from my brother and his wife, Olga. I loved that my birthday was celebrated over a few days! It made it all that much more fun! LOL

Oh, BTW, Jason remembered all on his own to call me that day and wish me a happy birthday! First time in his entire lifetime! He always had his sister or a family member to remind him. I was so proud. Nina sent me a text message, but she usually was not the one that had to be reminded that it was my birthday anyway. Even when she was pretending to be an orphan, she still called me on my birthday.

That's the latest update on the ins and outs of my life these days. Not much of one, but I had to share the news about Jason. Say a little prayer for him if it comes to you. It is something he and I have been praying about since he moved out on August 8th.

Hope all of you are doing well and if Jason gets the job, I'll be moving out and the first thing I'm getting, yes, even before furniture, is a computer! I'll be back on here in full swing! I have so many ideas and creations that I want to share with you! Have a blessed week! :)

Oh, I almost forgot to tell ya'll! I bought a car! 2001 Ford Taurus, royal blue. I'll have to take a pic and post it soon. It's got some great hail damage and 112,000 miles, but hey, they are all highway miles! LOL I THINK that's supposed to be a good thing! LOL
