Catch up...

Well lets see where to begin - I haven't posted since the weekend...what all has happened...lets go to bullets!
  • Monday came and went - I had off from work - so Charley and I headed home to Wilmington via Margie's gift wrapping shop where I got 2 presents wrapped beautifully!
  • Once in Wilmington - we hung out with Grandma and Grandpa all day and finished up some Christmas shopping
  • We all headed back this way stopping for dinner since my parents were watching Charley on Tuesday
  • Tuesday I drove down to Virginia for my job interview - which went AMAZING - it is kind of weird in the field that I am in - a job interview does not consist of talking about the actual job since they don't know what it is I'll be doing :)
  • I am so excited about it - it is going to be a lot more work as I was just going to be working 3 days a week - 8 hour days - but now the benefits are SO AMAZINGLY GOOD that I am going to work three 10 hour days in order to get benefits **for example when I had Charley this past February under our old insurance we had to pay about $1100 after all is said and done and with the new insurance I will have to pay my $10 copay at my first prenatal visit and THAT IS ALL! How freaking cool is that! After the interview when I found this out I called up Jimmy and the first thing I said was "wanna have another baby?" he thought I had lost my mind! :)
  • I am still waiting on the job though - they haven't made me an offer yet - though I know the job is mine. They contacted my 2 references today because they told me, so maybe I'll hear something tomorrow - I just want to know...and hopefully it is REALLY good and will make the holidays great!
  • Tuesday night I had a much needed girls dinner with my friends from college - we laughed so hard telling stories from college.
  • Today I had to work all day and Charley went to her new babysitter - which is a friend of ours and neighbor - so it wasn't traumatizing - for me anyway - she could've cared less! :) She was a good girl as always and had a great time. She is only going to go there one day a week usually, but this week our usuals had Christmas parties and things going on so they couldn't come. So she is going there tomorrow too - she is going to go to her son's Christmas concert - I hope she behaves...but then she loves other kids so I am sure she will have a blast!
  • Tonight I went to my first spin class since before Charley - it was great! I didn't get to stay the whole hour, just 50 minutes since I can only leave Charley in the day care an hour (which she loves now, by the way!) and since I got there 10 min early to make sure I got a bike I had to leave 10 min early, but I still got a great workout!
  • I came home bathed Charley and put her to bed...and then started on my Christmas candy! Fun fun...messy but fun. Now I am taking a break and catching you guys up...but I got sucked into Facebook - and need to get off the computer and get the rest of my stuff done!
Hope all is well! I have 2 videos to share that I think some of you will enjoy - oh and I still have the one of Charley crawling - so hopefully I can get around to posting them this weekend!!

Back to work...
