- January 3rd - I start my new job with the Bureau of Automotive Repair, which is about 3.5 miles and a 7 minute drive from my home.
- March 6th - Scott starts a new job with BOE and cuts his commute in half. Actually, now that he takes light rail, he's saving a boatload in gas. State workers get a huge discount on a monthly RT pass. Normally $100, he gets his for $35!
- Mondays Scott drives Harlie to Keri's, which means Mama gets to sleep in!
- Last weekend we decided that since our 2 year contract was up with AT&T that we would switch to Sprint (cheaper!) and get new phones. We got a smoking deal and walked away with one free iPhone and another free phone for Austin. Plus, we get an 18% discount on our monthly service because, can you guess? We're State workers! So then we paid $99 for the other iPhone and now I am plugged in and hooked up to the rest of civilization and the 21st century folks.
- And the very BEST thing that's happened this year....I found out today that I get to join the early week/late week rotation in my unit at work, which means tomorrow I start at 7:30 and get off at 4:00 bitches!!!!! This means I work 2 weeks in a row getting off at 4:00 and then 1 week getting off at 5:00 (repeat, repeat) and it's gonna make this spring and summer so super awesome!
You hear what I'm sayin'?
So much of this is news to me! And GREAT news at that!
ReplyDeleteWhat a smokin' deal you guys get on RT passes! That must be saving you soooo much money on gas. Does Scott have to leave very early in the morning?
So tell me, are you completely in a love/hate relationship with your iPhone yet? ;)
This post made me happy. As did the photos of those adorable little children. :)
Congrats, E! Things are lookin' up!
Ali, Scott leaves around 7:20 and has to be at work at 8:00.
DeleteSo far it's all love/love for the iPhone...so many conveniences that I am l-o-v-i-n-g right now!
ERIN!! Whoo hoo! Getting off work at 4 feels so early, especially with it getting dark later, you have a whole afternoon and evening.
ReplyDeleteSo many things are looking up for you girl, I am SO happy for you. Doesn't it feel like good things all happen at once? Washing over you like waves of happiness? Just keep the spirits up and feeling like you are and life will reward you with so much. Happy attracts happy.
Those cousin pics make me want to seriously burst. They're adorable together. And Harlie in pic #2? What a stylish little girl. Oh, my goodness she looks like she could be school age already in her long hair and skirt and boots. :)
Thank you so much for taking these photos with your spiffy new phone. :) Love 'em and LOVE those kids. :) They are just like brother and sister! I'm so excited for your new schedule. Now I can come bug you this spring and summer and meet you at the park with the kids. :)
