I'm a big girl now!

So the job interview that I told you all about in my last post... I GOT THE JOB!! :) I'm so excited. Hopefully I really like the job and I'm not all excited for nothing, but yaye! I'll be a leasing consultant at Great Bridge Apartments. The lady in the office that interviewed me seemed really nice and she was very impressed with me even though I've never had a job like this before. I had decided that if she called and offered me the job that I was going to turn it down.. I was supposed to move back to Illinois while Chris is deployed this year and then I got the interview for the job and I realized I wouldn't save any money if I stayed here even if I was working so I had decided if she called and said the job was mine that I was going to tell her no but I just couldn't make myself do it! I was too excited. This is my chance to actually help with bills and extra stuff we want to do. I know all families are different but when we got married Chris's money became our money but there has just been a part of me that wanted to pitch in. Now I get that chance! I'll figure out the housing situation, last minute I'm sure, but I will. :)

Chris got more of his tattoo done today. It's getting to be crunch time so hopefully he gets it completely done before he goes on deployment. I get to get more of mine done on April 7th. Hopefully I get mine done too because I'm impatient! I'm just ready to see the finished project! It's taking forever to get them finished because they are so big and the place we are going is so busy but I definitely recommend Rocksteady Tattoo if you're up for getting ink!

Oh deployment, how I hate you.

It seems like Chris just got home and in less than two months he'll be gone again. With Insurv, no pom period and underways, that two months is going to fly by and before I know it, I'll be standing there watching until I can't see the ship anymore. Until you've felt it, you'll never understand the feeling. I thought I was going to type a whole blog on how I hate deployment but now that I've started typing I'm speechless.. It's too overwhelming to think about so I won't blog about it until it's here, in a few short weeks.. :(

On the brighter side of life, I saw the fertility specialist earlier this week. We have a plan now for the next year. Hopefully I won't have to put part of that plan in to action, but I feel better knowing that there is hope and something can be done! :)

After sending out what feels like hundreds of resumes, I finally got a call back! I had an interview at an apartment community to be a leasing agent yesterday! I'll finally have a big girl job if this thing goes through! Get up early, dress nice, get a real paycheck.. holy cow! Lol. I'm expecting a phone call by noon today giving me the 100% yes you got the job, so keep your fingers crossed people! I'll have three jobs if this works out! Scentsy, babysitting Hannah, and the leasing agent job. 

Don't forget to order Scentsy! :)
