So I think I probably won’t get that job I applied for at work. From everything I’ve heard now at work, lots of people applied and they’re choosing based upon experience and job history and the answers to the three questions on the form.  I’ve been with the company less than a year officially (I was a temp from August 08 through Nov 30 2008, then was permanent starting December 1). They’re not doing interviews at all.  So I don’t think I’m going to get it.  But I’m bound and determined to keep everything in the Lord’s hands.  Seriously, that’s helping so much.  It’s scary to do my part and leave the rest in the Lord’s hands, but since I truly started leaving the situation in the Lord’s hands, I’ve never felt better.  I’m not as anxious and I haven’t had sleepless nights over it. 

So it does look like I’m going to escape getting a bruise in the crook of my right arm.  However, I’ve got one on my left hand and a doozy of one on my right wrist. Thankfully, none of them hurt now except if I bump the site where I got stuck.  Last night it hurt just to move my right hand thanks to where they stuck me.

I’ll be getting my incentive check tomorrow – the incentive for changing my hours in August.  I won’t be heading to Christopher & Banks though right away. My mom’s got coupons that are good starting October first.  I don’t remember what the deal is, but it’s nice 🙂  So I’ll wait til October 1st and just go then.  But I will order the  two sweaters I liked from the Penny’s catalog.  I may also get the sheet music from deseretbook that I’ve been looking at online.  I’m always looking for more sheet music! 

Not too much more going on – our home teachers are coming tomorrow at 7 (will have to tivo Bones and watch it after they leave).  Then we’ll head to the airport on Friday evening to pick up my dad (barring inclement weather – it’s supposed to rain and thunder Friday evening). Then Saturday we’re planning on heading to Illinois to see my grandparents.
