today i quit starbucks. or rather, put in my two weeks notice. it was a very bittersweet moment for me. while i don't really enjoy the ave much anymore or the absolutely psycho customers that frequent the store, i will truly miss my "partners"... the only reason i stayed so long, was able to bear the job and actually make it through a shift was because of the awesome people i worked with. it is the end of an era. i remember praying a few summers ago that God would bless me with a job. He did, He is always faithful and good, and it was a great run. But i feel that i have been blessed with another great oppurtunity. so it is out with the old and in with the new. it'll start 2008 off with a new vibe. i'm looking forward to it, too. we (evan and i) were invited over to the family's house for lunch where i'll be nannying, tomorrow. exciting things, all around. : )

yay! i've met with both parents seperately and we all
feel that this will be a good fit... i have to meet will now.
it seems funny that we've all agreed to this and i haven't
even met will yet. i meet him this weekend. he seems
like a great kid. so that's the last step. let's hope that goes
well, also. : )

saturday. 1 pm.
coffee date with a potential employer.
nanny for a 1st grade boy from queen anne.
$15-$20 to hang out for 15-20 hours per week.

wish me luck!

during this crazy christmas season, it can be easy to forget what it's all about. it's not about us... it's about Him more than anything. so take that spending down a notch, spend that quality time with the fam, and love JESUS!

worship more.
spend less.
give more.
love all.

can we all agree to this?

so... i am considering quitting sbux to find a job in nannying. i have been constantly searching craigslist for positions. i have found some which look pretty promising, so we'll see where that goes. to anyone who has been a nanny, what can i expect? did you like nannying or do you have a tid-bit of advice to steer me away from this job? i think i would enjoy nannying because i love kids, though i know they can be tiring. i don't want my own yet, so taking care of someone else's seem fun. i hope to find a nannying job near wallingford, greenlake or queen anne. times are a changin'. : ) oh, as for the nanny diaries, not a very good movie, but a wonderful book.
