Today is my first official day of work. I have training today and tomorrow on the register. Then next week i'll be training in my department(bras) then the week after that i have to step it up on my own. ugh. I'm more nervous than i thought i would be. reallly nervous that my stomach gets butterflies when i think about it and i feel sick. I just have to get tonight over with so i know more of what to expect. The first day of work or school was always the worse. I look so official in my new black suits. i love them.

Victoria Secret


I got the call last night!! I'm hired at Victoria Secret. I had a group interview wednesday night. it went really well but ya never know what they are thinking. i haven't worked for ten years so my application was blank but i had a long list of references. this is such an esteem booster for me. because they hired me for me not because of my work history. the hiring manage said it will take about a week or so to hear back from her so i was soooo happy i didn't have to wait that long. i'll be working in the evening from 6-11pm at the chandler mall. (by the way it's the second grossing store in the nation following las vegas of course) super busy!! i applied to stock because i thought i had to stock to get the late shift but the shift is the same for sales. she said she couldn't put me back in the stock room that i would be more of an asset in sales. so i'm in the bra department. awesome discount too. woot woot. i start orientation this saturday. so while three of my kiddos are at school at i have to find some black dress slacks and a black jacket. so if your at the mall come say hi!! and buy a bra! ;)

lots and lots of pics of new york!! part one.



This is going to be a long long post. I did well flying thanks to the pills. and they really did help a lot. I got to tiffani's at midnight since i had a small delay in chicago. She lives in up state ny and it's beautiful. I love the homes too. Siding, grass, and trees, oh my!!! We went to bed at 2:00am if i remember correctly and woke up at 7 to drive 1 1/2 hours to take the 1 1/2hour train ride into new york city. We missed the the 9:30 train by about 20 steps. So we had to wait an hour till the next train. Taking the train into the city was really cool. It went by the Bronx. The housing is crazy there. Building after building and they are just full of apartments. Train stop was a grand central station. We stayed at the holiday inn in times square. Tiffani scored we got the room for 200.00 including tax. we checked into our hotel room and then went to the middle of times square. i told tiff i hope we see the naked cowboy. and we did!!! so for a dollar you got a picture with him. he was really nice. we were laughing our heads off. We then took the subway to south manhattan. We saw the statue of liberty. Really cool. then went to ground zero. watching the horrible acts of violence that happend on 9/11 on t.v. doesn't even compare to seeing it with your own eyes. tiffani told me that they are still finding body parts. the memorial that they are building is going to be really neat. you should look it up. there is a little catholic church right next to ground zero and it didn't lose one pane of glass when the towers came down. it was filled with memory stuff. pictures and letters. soooo sad but i'm glad i got to experience it. i love that they have the usa flag hanging at ground zero. i will continue my ny trip more later. there is soo much more!

I feel like i'm going to be bored out of my mind. and to be afraid of flying. not fun. at lestt when i fly with chandler and the kids i'm occupied keeping them busy. i'm trying not to get worked up about how nervous i am to fly. i have plenty of time for that as i'm taking off, flying, and there's the landing. i will survive and it will be worth it. i know that i'm going to have so much fun with tiffani. i can't wait. i still have a lot to do. i promised chandler that i would make spagetti and a chicken casserole. so he can just heat dinner up. i still need to pack. i want to finish all homework tomorrow so chandler doesn't have to worry about it. oh yeah, i did get medicine. hopefully it will help. so bye for now. next post will be of some pics of my trip!! pic is of chandlera parker and i on our way to mesquite, nevada march 2007

Labor day fun






We went to Buffy's (chans sister) house for a bbq and swimming on labor day. We were there for six hours of swimming, talking, eating and singing karoke. It was so fun. I had a lot of fun singing with Lacy! Here are some cool pics of Jace doing back flips and hayley would do a back bend into the pool.

Parker turns two!!




Parker turned two on September 1st. I am sad. I'm having a harder time than i thought i would having my baby grow up. I can't believe it has been two years already. He is such a sweetie. He fights me most of the time while i get him dressed. He really puts up a fight!! He is such a mamas boy too.. So i hope he won't be hard for Chandler while i'm gone next week. His hair is still very blonde. We bought him his first big boy bike. He burnt his finger because he touched the flame when were singing happy birthday. I love my little Parker!
