September

This month has been great so far. Especially the 3 first days. Wanna have a job in Kazakhstan? No thank you but thanks for the interest! Wanna interview for us for a position is DC? YES, absolutely! And then Happy Birthday!

I spent my birthday with my 3 girls. T was home "sick" for my birthday and it was awesome. The cats had saved from their allowances again and Bailey got me 4 "Jaws" DVDs and Sox got me the Miss Congeniality DVDs. T took me to Red Lobster which might be an annual thing...LOVE Red Lobster and bought me a waffle maker. Before you say anything bad about my waffle maker you should know that it makes COW and duck shaped waffles! Isn't that awesome??? I saw it the day we took the cats to see a vet and now I have one! Woo Hoo! I'm so excited but I won't open it until we move to Brooklyn.

My birthday was very low key, just the way I like it. We walked to Dunkin Donuts, spent an hour by the pool, and watched 2 of the Jaws movies. Few weeks ago was Sharks week on Nat Geo channel and we got talking about the Jaws movies and how great the shark was for movies produces in the 70's...Sox picked up on that but didn't have enough money so B got them for me. that night was the last Eagles preseason game and Michael Vick was playing a lot so we stayed home and watched the game and ordered a pizza.

We went to Red Lobster on Friday and then on Saturday we went to T's mom's for dinner. We were playing around with Carly who can now say my name and is just talking mile a minute. She's like a little parrot, repeating after you. I asked her what her name was and she said "me". LOL! She is the cutest little girl ever! We might see her again on Sunday for the Football season opening...Make her an Eagles fan...

For the rest of the weekend (It was a long weekend, Monday was a Holiday) we laid by the pool, sat outside, packed a little and went to a street fair in Nutley. It was a nice little walk and an preview of things to come when we move to Brooklyn. Speaking of Brooklyn...we are moving in 2 weeks and still have a lot of packing to do. I better get to some of it today.

I had my interview 2 days ago...it was a phone interview with my future boss should I be hired!hehe...It's an Environmental Scientist position for a company in DC...they are doing the phone interviews this week and then will get back to the people who they wanna meet face to face at the beginning of October. Interviews in DC would would be at the end f October and I don't know if the job would then start in November...I am really excited about this opportunity and hope to get a call back. I thought the interview went well, obviously there is always improvements to be made but who knows...Unfortunately I am not making the decisions! But She sounded really nice and I just hope that I am what they are looking for. This was my first real big time interview so even if I wouldn't get the job at least I have some experience now...

What's next? More job hunting, more packing and a move in 2 weeks. Keep your fingers crossed for a call back!

Today is the 8th anniversary of September 11 terrorist attacks. I am so grateful that T got out of the city that day alive. I love You baby.
