Well, I guess I decided to start blogging again. It seems like it's the "thing" to do nowadays. I know most people who blog every day or once a week. I don't think my life will be interesting enough to blog that much. But here goes nothing...
The month of March was quite an eventful one. Mike bought his car, which just happens to be my dreamcar. It's a 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS. It's silver and one good looking vehicle. We both really enjoy it.
Also new this month, I quit my job at Wells Fargo!!! For those of you who don't know... I started working there August of 2009 after my job with the State Legislature ended. I had 6 weeks of training which was a blast! It mostly involved learning how banks work and bank policies and whatnot. I love learning so I thuroughly enjoyed training. Then, training ended and all hell broke loose. Now, I wasn't working at a Wells Fargo branch. I was working at a Wells Fargo call center. It was formerly known as Wachovia and I answered the phone as "Wachovia" but as most people know, Wachovia no longer exists and it is now Wells Fargo. Working at a call center I thought would be fun. Talking to new people everyday, hearing everyone's money stories, and I thought I would get to "help" people. Boy was I wrong!!! One call after another was the same old story. Someone spent too much money and they had fee's. But could I refund them their fee's? No. Which the end result was them yelling at me. So I quit!!
I am back to working full time for the Oregon State Legislature for State Senator Betsy Johnson and it feels great to be back! I love my job. I love the people who work in goverment and I love politics! I get to see and be apart of something so incredibly powerful. I see the inside workings and am constantly learning something new. This job really does make a difference.
So, with Mike getting his car and me quitting my job resulted in our budget being a little tight this month, which we will most definitely bounce back from on payday. We knew money would be tight with putting cash down on the car and we were prepared (or so we thought). We stopped eating out and gambling and have been getting a little "creative" for our meals. It's actually been quite fun!! I have become a little chef as well as Mike. With all of the shows we watch on the Food Network we should be creative! =) We've made a couple of different homemade pizza recipe's, some different Asian recipe's that involve chicken and vegetables and Mike's secret ingredients, and various different dishes. It's been very appetizing and fun!
Well, that's about all for now. There were some other fun things that happened in March and I'll be sure to write some more about it in a few days.
