Life In a Vacuum

So, it was a really nice day. And I got to get outside and TRY and clear out some of the 'beds' around the house. yikes. SO much work! Considering what it does to my lower back, I think I will have to do it in sections. I want to move the peony 'bush' but I have to figure out where. The location I had originally thought of putting it is not really going to work. drat.

We took Jr.'s car into the mechanic's this morning. He is FULL of vehicles to work on. Hopefully some of them are just oil changes and brake jobs! Troy told Andy the mechanic there wasn't any big hurry if he has other vehicles to work on that need to get done right away. I kinda wish he hadn't done that but then, there really isn't any big hurry.

Ms. Divine's friend Amber came over yesterday afternoon. They went over town (walking) then back for dinner. I invited Amber to spend the night. She has been here all day and they went for another walk and I think she will be here for dinner again tonight. I don't really care. It is spring break, the girls are bored and Amber's parents both work. She is not loud at all and likes Max.

TJ has been plugging away at his school work and filling out job applications online. There is this neat little site for hourly wage jobs for places like Kohl's and Tim Horton's, etc. the you can go to and fill out those applications and attach a resume, if you want. He has a good resume made up. He had to do it for a couple different classes. I hope he hears something out of one of these places.

I have been filling out applications and submitting them also. Takes up a lot of time. They are quite long and involved...and I attach my resume and cover letter.
Now, if someone will just get back to me!

This Saturday is the annual church spring cleaning day. TJ and a friend, Jake, are going to go down to my little sis's house Saturday to help out with yard work but the church spring cleaning starts at 8 a.m. I figure I can get about 2 hours of help in before I take them down there...they are both slow movers and Missy said she didn't figure they would show up until the afternoon.

The weekend after Easter our church is hosting the Women's Choir from MVNU. They needed ppl to take some of them in for the night on Saturday night so we volunteered to take 2 of them. That should be interesting! LOL

Sometime (soon, I hope) we will be getting the backyard fence up. The Max can roam around a bit more. I am not sure that is going to make a big difference with him. He won't be able to be nosey about what is happening out on the streets so he might not like it.

So, that's it for now...nothing surprising or out of the ordinary. Tomorrow it will rain and I will also be getting my new sweeper. YAY! oh...vacuum...um...yay.
