MAJOR UPDATE
Wow - it's been awhile.
I'm off the horribly boring project that I have been on since June - yippeee! I've been picked up on a new project and I think I should start on Monday. It's located in Phoenix but I don't have to travel every week - the guy I interviewed with said that it would probably be about 15% travel. Which works out great for me.
Jimmy and Kimber moved out and they had a heck of a time doing it. I was sick and tried to help and ended up killing my back on the 2nd piece of furniture i moved so I was out. A few hours afterwards their huge U-Haul broke down and after over 4 hours of waiting and 2 hours of my driving there I got them back to my house. Saturday apparently U-Haul had a problem with giving them a working U-Haul so they came back on Sunday to get the rest of the little things around the house.
Sunday night Aje came over and I was so excited about having Jimmy's old room back that I had a huge burst of energy and we ended up painting Sunday night. Monday Aje's mom came over with the truck and a carpet steamer and she steamed the dining room while Aje and I used her truck to go to my mom's and move a desk, two bookshelves and my futon. The room looks awesome. We shifted some furniture around...if you've been in my house the black/brown cube bookshelf that was in Jimmy's room is now in the dining room. The only things in my room right now are my bed and two dressers....it's so relaxing now.
Tuesday I somehow convinced Aje to go to IKEA with me. Once he was there he was really into it and we got some stuff...a new TV stand, a few lights, trash can for the office, desk blotter, a shelf, etc.
Wednesday Aje had to go back to work, and I interviewed for a project and got on it. It's located in Pheonix - but i'll only have to travel 15% of the time or so. I'm excited because it deals with some stuff similar to what I did at Wells - workflows and service requests. It sounds like its going to be a little more complicated than that but that also excites me because I really need a challenge. I've been so bored lately. After I got accepted on the project I ran out to get a new phone since my old one was hanging by a thread...literally. I came home and just as I was starting to put the TV stand together Aje came home and he helped. Then we rested the rest of the night...watching Thank You For Smoking (great movie) and then an episode of Law and Order. Aje went to bed and I stayed up sewing and watching TV.
This last week has been great!
