I GOT A NEW JOB!!!!! About a month ago, my boss told me I would be laid off at the end of April. Since that conversation I sent out 163 resumes and was beginning to feel like nobody wanted to hire me! Last Wednesday I went on an interview and on Friday afternoon, they offered me a position! Talk about fast!! I actually started this morning and am working part time between the new job and the old one for 2 weeks. The company is called Prima Marketing and they manage convenience stores on the east coast. There's only about 12 people in my office, so it's really quiet. But, we can wear jeans and flip flops every day if we want! It's super close to my house, only about 5 blocks and has 24 hour garage parking. My office is on the 22nd floor and the elevators go so fast that my ears pop every time! It's a block off of the 16th street mall, so if anyone wants to meet me for lunch, there's plenty of options!
I can honestly say that this job is a HUGE answer to prayer and a HUGE blessing. I was so stressed out, and even though everyone kept telling me God would take care of me, I was beginning to wonder what His plan was. Yes, our God is a great God!
On a side note, it rained yesterday. I absolutely love the rain! It makes me so happy! Ben, my dad, and I took KiKi for a walk in the rain and it was amazing! My grandma used to record thunder storms and send me the tapes. I would listen to those silly things when I would go to sleep or study.
I also started reading a new book called When Wallflowers Dance by Angela Thomas. She's the same woman that wrote Do You Think I'm Beautiful? which is one of my favorite books, so I'm excited to dig into this one!

Wish I could go to lunch with you on the 16th street mall!! :(
excited to hear about the new book too! I like that author.
I'm very happy for you, and I'm glad we could have a drink (or two-or was it three?) together on Friday.
