I lost my job at Gold's Gym. It's sad to say goodbye to our free gym membership, but we are over it. Grandma and Grandpa have a treadmill and a bike in the basement, plus the weather is hopefully, kind of, getting better, and Keith brought his weight set from home, so we are set! Plus, I got the opportunity to work, possibly for the rest of the school year, at Highlands Middle School in the Life Skills classroom. I was offered this position on Tuesday of this week and it has been a TON of fun! The kids are super sweet and hilarious and are so growing on me. I will miss them when I have to leave. Also, it's been teacher appreciation week. HELLO FREE LUNCHES (: Tuesday was potluck day with soups and salads and all sorts of goodies, Wednesday was leftovers, Thursday was Cinco De Mayo with beans and rice and some sort of spicy food for tortillas, chips and salsa and today was subs with a tons of ham and turkey some more goodies and chips. Besides the fact that I'm almost 19 and am sometimes confused as being a student there and if you don't think about all the weight I'll gain, losing my job at Golds wasn't so bad after all.
On the other hand, my poor Keith has been working like a crazy man. 4-7 at the airport Monday-Friday then 8-4 or 6 at MetalFab right after that. Luckily the new bid started and he will only have to work 3 days at the airport. But Fridays will KILL. 4-7 airport, 8-4 or 6 MetalFab, then back to the airport at 10-1 for a double. Income is nice though. And tithing blessings are even better.
We got a check from FedEx yesterday for reimbursement from school last quarter that I'm sure we wouldn't have known if it never came. But we are so happy it did! And even though right now tithing isn't something we struggle with, I'm sure later in life, if we have any doubts, we can look back at this incident and know what we have to do.
As I'm sure you all know, Keith and I are sports fanatics. We have plenty of events for anyone to come watch. Softball just started for my sister and I. Church league out at the Trac in Pasco. Don't mean to brag or anything, but our team basically dominates. Keith has been playing basketball at the Tri-City Court Club on Mondays or Wednesdays. So anytime you feel like working on your tan, or watching an exciting game of basketball, just let us know! :)
We haven't heard back from the Dental Office, and I'm getting more anxious each day! But we will see. I'm still applying places so, hopefully, come summertime I will have a job and not be a summer bum.
