Happy late New Year

I hope everyone rang in the new year good and proper. Which to me is with a glass of Asti in one hand. We had a party at my house which was really fun, and then the fireworks went off right by the space needle, which we can see from my house so that was neat. I'm just greatful to have already made so many friends out here in Seattle. It's only taken me a couple of months here, and it took a couple of years out in NYC. So things are going a lot better.

I have to say that I am going to miss 2008, it was one of the best for me. Mostly because of my move to Glacier followed by my move to Seattle. But what the heck, I might as well just keep up the same stuff this year.

I had a small crisis at work. Over the holidays I was working about 35 hours a week at one of my jobs. And it's the job I like most and make more money at. So I asked my boss what she thought about me quitting my other job. She said I should go for it, cause two employees were going back to school and it looked pretty good for me. So I did quit that job I didn't like. And now, I'm screwed because this week I am on the schedule for a whopping 10 hours. I'm kinda bitter toward my boss for leaving me in the position. But she's really sensitive and passive aggressive so I can't really talk to her full out about it. But luckily, and thanks to the secret, I was able to start a new job just yesterday. I'm bussing tables, which is CRAZY. I haven't taken anything less than bartending or waitressing since I was 15 years old! But these are different times, and I still make about 60-80 in tips a night as a busser. Which works out well, cause I don't have to deal with customers, I will get moved up to server soon and then I'll make bank, and my wage is almost 9 an hour so I can probably still pull at least 500 a week between my two jobs. So it's all good now.

And I'm going back to Glacier in May! Which I can't wait for. Plus one of my friends from work is going too, so I'll have a hiking buddy. And I know I'll be able to put away some good money there. And in about 6 weeks the weather will start to get nice out here and as soon as March rolls around I'm hitting the trails. This is such a beautiful area, I can't wait to get out and explore.

I'm really glad you're using the secret Mom! I know it works. Good luck with your book and your new business!

Happy New Year everyone! I think 2009 is gonna be awesome!
