I am so excited that I finally got a pharmacy technician job that I love!! I feel like finally my schooling and hard work has gone to something and I can move on satisfied. I was on the job hunt for weeks and was having no luck. Then I applied at the place that Katie got her job at which was MedSource pharmacy. We thought it would be cool to get a job at the same place so that we could carpool. So I applied and I didn't hear anything.
On January 22th, Saturday, I went to Target to apply to their open position and they said they would be doing interviews the following week and they'd let me know. The previous Thursday I had received my first pre-interview phone call from CVS pharmacy in Salt Lake City. Then on January 28th, Friday afternoon I got a call from MedSource. It turns out that Katie recommended me to the HR people there and my application email had gone to the junk mail and would have been lost forever!
So they found my poor lost resume and called me in to interview the following Monday. I interviewed and it seemed like a perfect fit. By the end of the interview I was told, "Well, you seem to be great and I think you will be able to hit the ground running so we are ready to get you started as early as tomorrow if that works for you." YESS!!!
So that's the story and here we are. I love it and I can't believe it has finally worked out. Later I got calls from two pharmacies (including Target) but they were part-time and I am very happy with the position I have now so I declined. (it felt really good to say, "Ummm, I already have a job...thank you anyway"...*fist pump*) So Sheehan is still working at Wells Fargo full time right now and doing BYU courses through BYU independent study and I am just working and doing what I love. I have the best schedule. I thought I wouldn't be able to handle it but Benjamin Franklin may have been right when he said,

"Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise."
Needless to say I start my day off at 5:45 am. I get ready the night before by picking out my outfit, showering, and making lunch or else I would be hopeless at getting to work on time. I cannot make decisions, like what I am going to wear today, that early in the morning. I get ready and out the door to meet Katie at 6:30 am where we carpool the last half hour to South Jordan to work. I work until 3:30 pm with a half hour lunch and I make it home about 4:15. Just in time to make some dinner and feel like I have been home for a while before I'm off to bed to start all over again. The perfect night is when I can enjoy good ol' American Idol with the latest batch of judges who I actually really like!
Well it may seem pathetic but don't judge....Sheehan and I are going to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I for the first time tonight! Sad, but true....it has taken us this long....what can I say? Poor, student, young, married people have to wait for movies to go to the dollar theater.... hahaha I've heard mixed reviews on the new movie but we will see how we feel about it. I hear there is a whole lot of camping and wandering...
Sheehan bought a desk off of KSL for $25 bucks...sweet deal! On top of that...they delivered. I am slowly beginning to love Utah. (I never thought I'd say it)
For Christmas Alyssa gave me the best gift! It is a set of mini cake pans that are so cute! This was my first attempt and creation. :) I just loved how cute and little it was! I couldn't get enough of it!
SUPERBOWL!!!!! We had our first superbowl party which was awesome! I've always wanted to have one just so that we could eat all of the food! SO we did and WE DID!. We had taquitos, steak quesadillas, pizza, buffalo wings, salsa, breakfast biscuit muffins, oreo casserole, and cupcakes. It was awesome! Here are the cupcakes I made. I was pretty proud of myself....
Last but not least, Katie had her 21st birthday so Gina, Katie, and I had some Birthday breakfast together on her birthday January 29th. We had chocolate french toast and a fruit salad. It was awesome!!
