The past month

So just an update to let everyone know I'm still around! This month has been so busy, even my house is starting to fall apart. (I promise I'm going to get to cleaning it after I finish this post :)

So the main reason for being so busy is...I got a job! I have now been employed part time for 4 weeks now, and I love it! The job is a cleaner for a big supermarket here is Australia. They have made me work every shift in my store, even the early morning, have to be to work at 4:30 shift. Trust me, I'll be happy to never work that shift again!

Now as it goes with almost anything, there is good and bad. The bad here is I have to work until 9pm at night, which I do not enjoy since hubby has to make his own dinner half the time, and I have to work Saturdays :( But a few of the people with the company are working on changing that for me, and since they love me (Yes, hubby thinks I'm getting a big head since they are always saying how much they love the work I do :P) I should have it changed to more daytime hours, and no weekends.

Now, working part time you would think I should have time to clean my house, right? Well if I ever get a week that I work only my contracted hours then I'll let you know. See, this company is new to our state, so everyone who is hired on is new. I started with the first group of cleaners. and already 2 have quit out of the 7 of us that started. So there being a big turn around, means when someone quits, they have to go through the processes of hiring more to fill that spot. In the mean time, they keep calling the rest of us in. Although 11 hours over time in a week is good money, will be nice to just work my hours so I can better plan things.

So I will try to get on here a few more times, since I do have some post that I would like to do!

A Saturday Drive


So who does not love some time with the one they love out in nature? On Saturday, being that it was busy for both of us, each going our own way (Jeremy to tennis, me to a baby shower) we decided to take a drive up north. Most of the time when we take road trips, we go south, so going anywhere north for me is interesting in itself! We ended up at Stanwell Tops, found a place to park and spent the next hour enjoying the view. :)


We did have one thing bug us, this huge ant who would not seem to get away!
