We had it this year over and Sterling and Jill's. And of course we all took turns passing Myrrhissa around. She fell asleep on Lindsey. We had breakfast, opened presents and chatted for a while. Ronna and Cameron left after that. Lind's went home to take a nap while mom and me went to visit uncle Mitch. We met back up for dinner at 5. Sterling cooked and prepared everything. It was all German recipes. It was sooooo good! Merry Christmas to all!!!
Just a few pics from our party. I'll have to get more off of Amber's camera. Notice our lovely fireplace on the wall. :) We had a decent turn out. These were taken when it first started.
So our garage door broke a few weeks ago. Finally got our landlord to do something about it after a stern talking to by Amber. It was a rediculous situation that should have been easily resolved. Out LL was supposed to call them and set up the appt. After almost 2 weeks from the original imspection, she then calls me to ask if I can set up the appt since it needed to be around our schedules. I said that would be fine. So I call and set it for Mon from 3-5. I called the next day to change it because my work schedule changed. So it was then set to Tues 9-11. Come Tues morning, they don't show up. I call again. They forgot to change the time. Ok. Back to 3-5. Good thing I had the day off. Come 3:45, they call me and say they will be there in 20.....come 6, no show. I call again. Now my LL can't be there to pay them anymore so they have to set up another time. I give them my schedule and LL's number. Either tomorrow 9am or after 6. Next day... no show in the morning. I'm driving to work around 1:45 and get a call from them wanting to come do it now. I reminded them of my schedule that I gave them the night before and told them that I couldn't do it till after 6 if not in the morning. I tell them I'll call when off work. I get off early and call them at 3:45 and tell them to come at 4:30. No show. Call once again and tell what happened. They said they will send another crew at 9am next morning. In the mean time my LL bring over their credit card. 8:15 next morning, I get woken up by the doorbell. GRRRRR!!!!! So anywho, the original crew finally shows up and fixes the door. And one guy says something about me being mad at them... I wasn't really. I was more annoyed than anything, but I sure didn't get a reason not to be. So now the garage is fixed. Happy day!
So I got a job offer from Allenberry Playhouse in PA, but alas it was only an internship. I can't afford to move out there for an internship. I would have loved to have said yes, but I need more than what they offered. I'm currently doing the day work for Christmas Carol for Actors Theatre at the Herberger. It's only a few hours a day, but it's better than a kick in the pants. Good news.... sort of... I hope.... so I talked to a friend the other day and she said that she put in a good word for me at Busch Gardens in VA!!!! I asked her how she new that I applied there because she was living in Ohio and we haven't talked in a really long time. Turns out that they caller her last minute and had her work there from Oct-Nov. They saw that we worked with the same company (shakespeare) and asked her about be. She said that she gave them a rave review!!!!! Holy cow. It's crazy what connections surface in random places. This was the first place that I sent my resume, and it's the one I feel the best about. This is the job that I want. It still scares me to move away from everything I know and love, but putting a time limit on it help. But still, to move cross country it a huge step for me. With everything that has happened lately, I just feel that I need to get out for a while, to take a big leap and break out of my box. I'm usually pretty outgoing, but I'm not the same person I used to be. I need to find that person again. I miss her. Does anyone know where to find her, or willing to help me??? Supermodel surch party anyone?
