The Equinox-New Beginnings...;)

YAY!!!!! It's finally SPRING!!!! (and it was also my b-day:)) I am SO happy-I can only think of maybe one or two things that could make my life better....!
I spent my b-day, also the first day of Spring, in NC with David:) The weather was amazing! It was 75 degrees and sunny on Saturday and I was loving life! We had such a great time, and I got to be there for several days-no children:) Happy Birthday to ME! LOL!
I started my personal "new year" with a brand new job:) Apparently, it's the "Holy Grail" of waitressing positions in Harford County...Whenever I tell someone about it they get excited and high five me:) From what I understand, no one ever quits working there, they almost never hire, and it's the best money going. It's also two blocks from my house:) (which is awesome because the place is SO busy I had to drive back home and walk to work last night-there were NO parking spots EXCEPT for in front of my house! LOL!) It's a huge bar/restaurant with live entertainment and probably over 100 TVs with sports, and everyone hangs out there. I started this week, training, and it's been crazy-CRAZY! I start with tables on Sunday morning and afternoon. I can't wait to make some money!
My last job was HORRIBLE. I was only there for two months and I made NO money. Management was bad, business was bad....The servers were super sweet and fun, and I miss them, but THAT was what kept me at my former job, Ruby Tuesday, too long. I had to move on. I literally lived off savings for two months and that's just unacceptable.
The kids and I are looking for a new place to live...We LOVE the area that we live in right now-LOVE IT-but the house is a dump and the landlord just doesn't care about much besides raising the rent. (which he just did) I know that for what I am paying, or for just a little more, we could literally live in luxury. There are a million houses for rent and sale in the area due to the current economic situation and housing bust, and I need to get into one. I HATE the house that we live in. It's TOO small, too run down, too expensive for what we have. We are very literally paying to live in the "downtown" area, which we love, but the house is a waste of my money. I have lived here for 15 months and have only used the kitchen once. It's cramped and dirty-we cleaned and cleaned and it just feels dirty all the time. I have never even unpacked completely and bought a small fridge for my room to get by. I live in my bedroom....That stinks...I have kids sleeping on sofas, only one bathroom with five people....Just not good. So....The search begins....
Things are good....:)
