Day 82

The past 10 to 14 days have brought much to be grateful for.

Brandon didn't get the promotion. It was a bit of a surprise (even Boss Man didn't expect one of the other candidates to have more experience), but it's still good. They did give him quite a nice raise and moved him off the truck and into the store to be fine tuned with one of the Assistant Store Managers. This is a HUGE blessing, not just in terms of money, but because Brandon will be having surgery on his elbow first of next month. The truck was wearing his body out. It would've taken him so much longer to heal in that position.

I passed my state boards last week. It was nerve wrecking and I was nauseous, but I passed. I am officially a state licensed cosmetologist :)

Had my first interview yesterday. At a salon close to the house. Owned by lovely men who pour back into our neighborhood. The job is mine pending that Anthony feels that I can in fact actually cut hair. So next Saturday, I'm taking my mom-in-law to be my model and bag me a j.o.b.
