What a week!
I celebrated my birthday with the family and received some awesome presents that I've yet to take pictures of.
I had another interview. It's in God's hands. I really could care less either way. I know that sounds harsh, but I'm not that desperate, you know? Maybe desperate is the wrong word. Let me try again... I've moved onto the second round of one job for a therapist/clinician position. However, if one of the jobs that I interviewed for, offers me a job, I'll accept it. If I get either one, good. If I don't, good. I mean, there will be other opportunities, if I don't. Whatever job I get, I don't care (that's a lie. i do). I mean, I would like it to be equivalent to what I was previously making (which would be more difficult, since it was a salaried position making a certain amount. i'm not saying the amount, because i don't like to talk about how much money that i made). Luckily, two of the jobs that I recently interviewed for are on par (or more) with the pay that I once was making.
I still don't regret quitting. I miss the money, but not the work itself, the environment, and how I was treated. Ideally, I would not want to start working until the middle of June, due to "certain" things happening. I just really don't want it to interfere and conflict with my photography business. That's one of my biggest fears. I need to be able to do that. I need to be off on weekends (ideally), because that is when weddings usually take place. So yeah. My long-time goal is in the next two years to be able to quit my job and do photography full-time like so many people that I personally know do.
Plus, I have a new purchase. Can you find it in the pictures? More to come on this later.
I also picked the WINNING horse for the Kentucky Derby. I picked the horse, I'll Have Another, and it won! Too bad that I did not bet any actual money. Sad. If only...

Celebrating my birthday (April 26) with the family.

Nice car! Good luck with all your job interviews/opportunities! Also, the drink looks much better with a cherry :)

Yay for getting a new car!! And I love your blue dress in that picture. So cute!
Yay for a new car even used it's great! ;) I have to say that cheesecake looks yummy. :)
Haha I ALMOST left the cherry out of a guy's Whiskey Sour today, because I hate getting sticky. However, I gave it to him anyways, since they kind of make the drink!
Would you believe that my husband picked the winning Derby horse all the way from Afghanistan and told me to put 20$ on it to win?!?! HAHA I WAS SO EXCITED!!!
Your blue dress looked fantabulous dear!
Hope you've been well!!
