I will start off with the bad news so that this post gets better. I always like to get the bad stuff out of the way if I can. :] So, here it is... I have been holding out for this job. It is actually a job that I had before and wanted to go back to, but it looks like that isn't going to happen. At least not at this point. Our lovely state is in such a crisis right now that they have put a freeze on all hiring, even though we have a huge list of children that should be getting services right now and are sitting on a waiting list! So for now I wait... just like those kiddo's. It just makes me mad because there is a need for my services, heck we (the state) even owe back services right now! It is so frustrating knowing that I can help those who need it, and they can get the help, but the state is such a bad spot that we all loose out. And right now really sucks for me because I was really really wanting to get this job. It would give me more time at home with my family as well as provide some financial stability. Oh well... I guess for now I will have to learn to be more frugal and continue to wait it out. I guess on the bright side of things is that if I don't get the position, I will have another month off from school to enjoy the summer with my family! That is always a good thing.
So the good news is... they were able to recover my photo's from Disneyland! How great is that! Okay, so I guess this should have been titled Bad news, Great News, Great News... I am so super excited about this! I don't have them all uploaded yet, but here is a few...
The first meeting with Mickey....
Fantasmic...
Monster's Inc. ride...
Mommy and Matteo in Toon Town...
Matteo's pirate tattoo... (right up there with meeting Mickey I think)
And the second great news is.... I won the kit over at Collage Press! How awesome is that! It is from their new line... Knave of Hearts collection! It is amazing! Look at this kit...
Jeez... I am so lucky! Yeah!
Oh, yeah, I almost forgot... I didn't have any one link their pages to my blog, so I don't have anyone to give my giveaway too, but I did complete my layout for Aleida's Challenge. You can read about what a wonderful lady she was here. Here is my layout....
And a few close ups...
And by the way... those fabulous stamps are Studio Calico exclusives.... and they are fabulous! Well that is all for me today... Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!
