Cedar City Shakespeare Festival


The sixth grade has been invited to Cedar City to perform their Shakespeare play that they did earlier this year. The date will be July 20th, so if anyone wants to schedule a quick trip to Cedar to see them perform it would be fun!

New Job

Well after 6 weeks, 4 interviews and 4 rejection emails I finally landed a new job!!! I'll be working at the Breast Care Center at IMC doing scheduling and reception for the Mammography Department. 20 hours a week, no nights, no weekends and no holidays! I am excited, but nervous. I have been at InstaCare for 9 years. Can you believe it? Brook was only 2 when I started there. Wow, how time flies. Thanks to everyone who crossed their fingers and prayed for me. It finally paid off.

I did it!

Today was my first venture into couponing. It was a baby step, but it paid off!

Albertsons was having a deal on cereal...buy 3 Special K cereals and get free eggs, plus get a coupon for free milk on your next shopping trip. And the cereal was on sale, and I had coupons from Sunday's paper for $1.50 off any Kellogg's cereal.

So I got 3 boxes of Special K cereal(red berries, my favorite, cinnamon pecan and blueberry)and a dozen eggs, plus a diet coke because I was on my way to work and knew I would be needing it today (rough night last night) and spent $3.79 plus I have my coupon for free milk for next time. Actually the cashier rung up an extra coupon for $2 off, not sure where that came from, so I really should have spent like $5-something, but considering the cereal is regular price $4.69, I'm pretty impressed with myself.

Job Hunting

So after several years of not having to work nights or weekends my job is now requiring me to work every other weekend and some nights. I'm now looking for a new job. If anyone knows of anything available that is part time (15-24 hours/wk) weekdays only, please let me know. Thanks.

Another Book Recomendation



This one was another one recommended by Stephenie Meyer (the author of the Twilight Saga) through her website. SM is now 2 for 2 in the book recommendation department. First Hunger Games (which if you haven't read it yet, get on it...it topped Braden's favorite book list, and is one of my favorites too), and now "The Girl Who Could Fly" by Victoria Forester. Think Laura Ingalls meets the X-Men. When Piper McCloud realizes she can fly and goes public with her new found gift she quickly finds herself far from her home where things may not be what they seem. What will Piper do when she learns the truth of I.N.S.A.N.E.?
