Hired!

Well, it looks like I will be hanging up my "Stay At Home Mom" hat! An informal offer was made Monday and I am expecting the official offer to arrive today, outlining the position and all the good stuff that goes along with it! I am thrilled and a bit nervous, too. This is going to be HUGE on our family! When I spoke with the manager today she said, "I seem like a perfect fit for her team and the rest just fell into place." While, I am not a big advocate on blabbing your life story to anyone that will listen. (yes, I realize that is exactly what this blog is, but you get what I mean, right?)I do think when you open yourself up a bit good things happen. That is how this job came to be for me. I have been wanting to stop the custom parties for a while now and wanted to try something new. At book club, I said I was thinking about going to school or taking some interior design classes. The next thing I knew I was doing a resume and being interviewed for a perfect position! "It just fell into place", I couldn't agree more. I have another full day of sewing ahead to prepare for the Flower Market. Set up is tomorrow and the Market starts on Thursday...I have my space planned out in my head, sort of, I really need to see it, then it will come together easily. MBM is going to help me with the set up, which means he will be moving tables and carrying heavy stuff. I am considering bringing my smaller sewing machine to "work" on smaller items while at the Market. I think it would be fun to have a little "work station" in my booth and it will keep me busy during down times, which is a good thing and will keep me out of other booths. The weather forecast does not look promising... I am keeping sunny thoughts!
