Rambling Departure

Well, it's time for a career change for me yet once again. On Friday, July 25th, I accepted a job at Coca-Cola as an Account Manager. I really feel this position is more "Me" and that I will truly love the job and find it to be very rewarding. However, it was difficult for me to relay that news to my coworkers, managers, etc here at Indiana Business College. I have been at IBC a little over a year and have really developed some great relationships, so it will be difficult to depart from them, but I couldn't turn down the opportunity at Coca Cola. First, my hours are much better to where I will be home every evening with Justin and Jarrett, which is huge for me because 1-2 nights a week, I wouldn't get home from work until 8pm or so and my sweet little boy would already be in bed. (Thank you to my amazing husband for taking over Jarrett's bedtime routine on those nights..love you) I will also receive a company car and gas card, so we are finally going to be able to get rid of our HHR (thank heavens!), and be able to save that money each month! I'm really excited about this opportunity and look forward to joining the Coca Cola team next Monday!

What else are we up to? Well, Jarrett is just about walking..taking about 4-5 steps at a time, so the baby gates are up! I would think in the next couple weeks, he will on the run. Justin and I have been working on the house some more trying to get it finished before Jarrett's first birthday party! What! Our baby is going to be 1 already??? I can't believe how time flies. Stayed tuned for more info on his celebration. Anyway, back to the house, Justin has been working on our landscaping in the front and back yard (with a fountain and everything..woo!) and I have been scraping wallpaper (yuck!) in our downstairs bathroom so we can paint it. I want it painted by this Sunday because my sister and I are having an Uppercase Living open house at our house, so if you aren't doing anything, come on over! It is from 2-4pm and it is a come and go as you please. You will be able to take home a free expression too! If you need directions, let me know. Also, if you can't make it, but would like to see the catalog, let me know.

Justin and my dad have been golfing every week for a couple months now, and now they think its my turn to golf...oh goodness! I borrowed Morgan's golf clubs to try it out...I'll keep you posted on that one too! HA!

Well, I think I've rambled on long enough. Hope you all have a great day!

How could you not just eat him up?


Linda, Jarrett's wonderful babysitter, took this picture of him after he ate lunch. I just loved it, so I wanted to share.

P.S. (I think he looks like me in this picture.... ;) )
