WORK ANYONE?


Don't worry. We're still here. Everyone is fine. I've just been consumed lately with finding people jobs. It's turned into an almost around the clock job. You see, in our church we get callings (jobs). It's a lay ministry. Mine is the employment specialist. Yesterday I topped over 30 people who are either out of work or who need improved employment. I have been meeting with them, doing resumes and writing cover letters, showing them where and how to look for jobs and prepare for interviews. I have been spending hours and hours searching for jobs for them myself as well. I have a few of them that are in really tough spots so I have had to spend extra time with them. It's kind of been all consuming. Yesterday my bishop said, "Now Nancy, don't let this take over your life." I looked at him and kind of rolled my eyes  . . . Lol. "Uh, it's a little late for that Bish." BTW, that was right after his sermon on taking care of the one. I have over 30 of those "ones". It's a little hard not to try to take care of them when they are in need. Although, I am trying to figure out the balance a little better now.

My baby girl is just under 10 days from turning 7. I can't believe it. Seems like not so long ago I was holding that chubby cheeked little baby girl in my arms. Just last night she lost the second of her top teeth. She is so grown up in her talking and thinking. She loves it when they accidentally call her Carolyn at school and she is very big helper to her mom and grandma.

Speaking of which, Grandma and Grandpa are doing well. No doctor appointments this week. Just hanging around the house.

The rest of the family is doing well also. Not much else to tell. Well, I will try not to be so much of a stranger. More later.
