Finally Friday!!!

Bad blogger! I am such a bad blogger. I know that I haven't written, but there has been so much going on. Hmmm....let's see where to begin.

I've got work to do, but I don't feel like doing it. Nowadays it just seems like busy work. I've looked for jobs in the paper, but nothing seems to interest me. If something does catch my eye, then it's so far below my current salary that it's beyond laughable.

Sis had an interview with a company about 30 minutes away this week. She's supposed to go to the company today to see if she likes the drive and the surroundings and what-not. It is more pay and opportunity for growth. Her friend and I have made a pact that if she doesn't take this job, we will beat her senseless. The position that she is currently in she has held for almost 8 years. There is no room for her to grow. She is basically at the top of the food chain here. Maybe it is time for her to move on. I don't know what her boss will do without her because it might be like removing her right hand. Oh well, we live, learn, cope and adapt. She'll get over it.

I have found some really cute patterns that I would like to try to knit. The problem is that they aren't in my size, so it would be knitting for others. Not that I mind that. I mean, knitting is knitting as long as it is appreciated, isn't it? I am currently working on a baby blanket (simple stitch with simple border) for our secretary. She just found out that she is pregnant. I have tons of the multi-pastel-colored baby yarn that I will probably never, ever use, so this is a perfect opportunity.

I met with the lady who wants me to make a scrapbook for her. She paid me half up front. I have scanned in the pictures. Basically, she has given me creative license on this one. We sat together and picked out the pictures that we could use and grouped them together. She says that the colors and any quotes or anything like that are of my own choosing. She will pay me the other half when the book is delivered. That doesn't seem like a bad deal to me.

DH wants a gaming computer! Why, I don't know. Well he tends to want expensive things, especially when we don't have the funds to afford them. I told him that if he could find something within the $200-$300 range then we might consider it, but his price came out to over $800. Little over budget there.
