Good Morning!
Well, I just showered and made coffee...mmm the whole apartment smells like blueberries from the blueberry coffee!! How wonderful! Jeremy is in bed still, but I heard him stirring around in the bed...possibly smelling things and hearing things happening on my current side of the apartment...maybe enticing him to get up and enjoy the day! It looks pleasurably sunny outside! In high school, I often sat next to this Indian guy on the bus who went by "Sunny"...but his name was Duyshant or something like that, I always called him "Sunny Bunny!"..cute, eh? Anyways, Jeremy may have a job opportunity coming up and goodness, I hope it works out because it sounds almost fantasy like the way the opp came about. One morning, we were lying in bed and he got a 9am text and it said "Hi Jeremy, this is Brian McNay...i may have a graphic design position at the company I work for that you would be interested in. Please give me a call."Jer gave him a call and found out the details. It's in Tampa and he'd be doing a catalogue for a big company that installs beautiful front doors in homes. It looks great! The building that the office is located in looks fancy even! Well, that call was just over a week ago. Apparently the position is still taken by a woman that will soon be fired or resign and then Jeremy will be able to have an interview. This Brian guy said he was 90% sure about everything. All we can do now is wait to hear from him again. Jeremy said he has no problem being confident about his skills in the interview....which Brian did coach that he MUST be confident in his graphic design skills to win over the woman Cynthia who would be conducting the interview. How could Jeremy not win? He's a good loyal man with an honest voice and a very humble attitude. There's no way he can't not get this job if he gets to go in for that interview. Brian said he wanted to get younger folk in the office anyways and Jer is 25 now....young, but ready to be even more mature than he already is.
Wedding Update: Well, Jer and I have officially cancelled/postponed all vendors that were going to be a part of our November 12th wedding. We are sad, but looking ahead of it now. We are getting some of the money back at least. We have better plans now. We even wrote a "Change the Date" card to send out to all the people that we had sent out "Save the Date" cards to. On it, is a little poem we wrote....
Change the Date!
To all our friends and family, just a little note…
To forget the “save the date” we previously wrote.
Due to the situations and circumstances of life,
It will be a little longer before Jeremy has a wife.
We are sorry to have to cancel the plans of before,
Just know for sure that much more fun is in store.
We want you to know our love is still deep,
Unfortunately, weddings just aren’t cheap.
We’ll let you know
As things re-flow
But for now, just remember,
Our wedding won’t be this November.
Aren't I a cute poem writer?? LOL. Anyways, it's not too corny, but more fun than anything I think. Jer seemed to get a kick out of it himself. It will be nice to get those out to everyone soon. Next month, depending on Jeremy's job situation, we plan on going up to TN to stay at a mountain cabin resort to have a look and see if that's where we'd like to have our wedding ceremony. From the website and talking to the people on the phone, it seems dreamlike! It would be fairly cheaper than our original wedding because we'd have only around 25-30 guests...include Jer, Me, and the Bridal party of course. We would be paying for them to stay for a few days in a luxurious cabin! How fun!!! We could all spend time together and be on a lighter schedule on the wedding day...no rushing around for appointments. Us girls could do our hair right in the cabin together and it would just be so much more exciting and relaxed I feel. I just hope my mom would be able to make it. I'll let you know how what's going on!
Yesterday, Jer and I went to Wal-mart...ugh, I hate supporting them, but we basically have to sometimes. We bought a new juicer! Jer and I were talking about our health for a while yesterday, and of course I got weepy talking about my blood pressure and how I want to be in ideal health so bad, but it just seems too much of a challenge. Jer assured me we can get through it together, and then he thought of juice! We bought the juicer and came right home and juiced carrots, apples, and oranges. It was great! We are going to work our way up to other veggies too, it will be so wonderful to get all that health into our systems! I feel confident and motivated today, but I know those feelings only last so long...Jeremy will help me keep them alive. I want to lose 35 lbs in the next 4-5 ,months and Jer wants to lose at least 15 lbs. He already lost 20 last year and hasn't gained a whole lot of it back, but he just wants to finish what he had started I think. Good luck Megan and Jeremy! We did that fruit and veggie fast in Jan...and I lost 6-7 lbs....if I can do it then, I can do it now....and I am going to call it a fruit and veggie FOCUS instead of a fast. Fasts get broken, but focus can always be a goal. Hellooo carrots!!
The day before yesterday, I got to help setup and tear down the Publix Luncheon for the 2010 Service Awards...honoring people who have worked for the company 5, 10, and 15 years. The 20+ year people get a dinner banquet. I had so much fun and felt very useful...it was great and a fantastic "networking opp" since I'd like soooo badly to be promoted soon! I've been ROIing for over two years now! If i were still at my old store 640 I would have gotten promoted already, but I still believe I made the right decision to come back to 353 because I really felt it in my heart. I am NOT saying that to convince myself of it either. At the luncheon, we had lots of guests..like Mike Abrams...our top HR man, and Jim Herring....the regional director!! AAAHH!! I took this lovely picture of them sitting together....they let me....i felt very special....
This second lovely photo was Mike Abrams's idea....a photo of myself....and the centerpiece of the table....you know there is a rumor that if Mike comes into your Publix store wearing a blue shirt...he's there to fire someone? LOL, no clue if he actually does this...but, he might? I would!!! Just to mess with everyone, hahaha! I would love a neat tale like that following my position.
Well, I guess it's time for me to finish my coffee and make my juice. Love until next time! I hope i come back here bearing good news. :)
