New job

Well, Its not really that big of a deal. Let me start from the beginning. For about the last two months, I have been wanting to learn how to sew. But my cautious husband said that I cannot get a sewing machine until I learn how. My mom has one, she bought it about two years ago and she took it out of the box........Thats about it. So we were about to set up shop and figure everthing out. I had been hand sewing to practice, but that is not very fun to me. I guess Im a little impatient. So, last friday I was pinning an apron that I bought and Darren called and asked what I was doing. I said working on my apron, and he said well how are you doing that, and I just said I was pinning it. So then he said well I have a prize for you. So he got home and guess what it was. I was so excited. He said that he went through hell (pardon my french) to get it. It was the last of the month and he went to the bank first and then he went to the renton wal-mart. For those of you who have been there, it is like another world. What a great hubby. Anyway, I was up until 3 am trying to figure everything out and practice. And for about an hour of that I thought something was wrong with it and I was putting the bobbin in the wrong way. Duh!!!

So back to the new job, I hadn't yet figured out the whole yardage measuring yet and spent more on some fabric than I wanted to. So I got home and told Darren that I would make some extra cash to help pay for my new hobby and some extra christmas $$. So my mom came over and said that she know of someone who wanted some help with cleaning and cooking. So I met with her and I will be cleaning one day and putting something in the crockpot and then making some meals at home and taking them and putting them in her freezer. And then, when I was working at starbucks, somehow a customer and I started talking about him needing his office and house cleaned. He gave me his card. So I gave him a call, and he is still interested. I think that Im going to start next week. I am really excited, if that makes sense.

ps Sorry this is so long, I havent learned how to make a long story short.
