My cute nephew

We have had Halloween costumes out and Spencer today put on a wig. Here are the pictures.

Spencer

I haven't updated in forever. Not too much to really update about. So I will just post some pictures and a video of the cutest guy ever.









Spencer now plays peekaboo....

New job

So ever since I quit my old job I felt that the only job I would get would be at the post office. Well, I got it but it was not the best of hours. But I am thankful for it because it gave me a lot of money when I had run out of it.

Well, we got back from Michigan on Tuesday and on Weds I had an interview for a receptionist position. She never got the email that I was coming so I ended up sitting there for over an hour before she came back from lunch. I was annoyed. The pay for the job wasn't that great and I just was not in the mood.

I got a call later that day saying they offered me a job. Not the receptionist, but doing data entry. It's about $4 or $5 less then the post office, but after they hire me on (right now I'm hired on through a temp company) they pay health 100%. Which will be right around my birthday which is when I lose mom's insurance.

So that was the deciding factor for me. I went in Weds night and told the post office I would work the rest of the week and then I would start this new job on Monday. The hours are WAY better (8-4 instead of 4-midnight) and it's a SET schedule. I don't be sent home after two hours or made to work 10 hour days. 8-4, Mon-Fri.

I can always go back to the post office if this doesn't work out (if they are hiring, I don't have to go through training and stuff again, I can just get hired back on). So I'm nervous because I won't be making that much an hour. I know I will have more than enough money to get by and still put stuff away into my savings, but just not as much as I would have with the post office. Which means I probably won't go back to school for a year, but that's okay. The benefits outweigh everything else.

Pictures

One of Tinas friends does a photo challenge and I was bored so I decided to mess around with photoshop. I like some of them better than others, but here they are!

Pootrap

Shawn Horcoff

This is a whiny post, FYI.

One of the reasons i think it took me so long to move to Utah was because of hockey. I know, it's crazy, but it sucks out here without hockey! And it sucks even more when I find out I'm missing stuff.

For those of you who don't know next to Jiri Fischer, Shawn Horcoff is my favorite player. I have been a fan of his for years. He plays for Edmonton but went to Michigan State and his wife is from Michigan so he lives in Bloomfield Hills/Birmingham in the summer. He is friends with Chelios and Cleary so he trains out at Troy Sports Arena too.

Well, he is supposed to be doing a charity event Weds in East Lansing. Where you get to skate with the players and then get their autographs after AND OF COURSE I'M MISSING IT! Why couldn't it be like two weeks later when I'm there? It's only $10 and a lot of players I like will be there and of course I'm missing it!

I have his autograph. Two, actually. One a friend in Edmonton got for me and another was from when me and Jonathan (Tom's grandson) went up to State for a charity game he was playing in and I got his rookie card autographed and this picture. The guy let me go on the bench and take pictures and stupid me was too shy to actually go up and ask Horcoff for a picture together! So really, the only thing missing from my collection is a picture WITH him and maybe a personalized autograph (I have that of Chelios already!).



The only thing missing from my collection is a personal Fischer autograph (I have one we bought, but it's not the same as getting it in person ahah). But I doubt I will ever get that. One since he doesn't play anymore and two since his charity events are back in Michigan too!

I guess I'm just supposed to miss out on everything! Maybe I'll make a trip to Edmonton for a game this year! haha It's only like a 12 hour drive!

Pictures!

Here are some pictures from our trip to Portland. You can see the rest on my facebook!
