snow...

So we're actually kind of snowed in, which is cool. I think the totals throughout the city varied from 12-20 inches, depending on the neighborhood. Hubby shoveled the sidewalk, and played with Ana and the dog, Ceili, and had fun. They came in all cold, and I made cookies and hot chocolate. Hubby and I bought some holiday wine from the Chadds Ford winery and it's supposed to be served warm, so it's in the crock pot. Cloves and cinnimon and wine. YUM. We are hoping that school will be closed tomorrow. For someone who is off all summer, he sure is praying for a day off. I know that I'll have to go to work either way, as long as the trains are running - which they are.

So Friday, I was hanging out at work, thinking about how I had 2 weeks left before starting my new position. I kept telling Raul that I knew that the 2 weeks were going to seem so long. Then, I got a phone call from the judge. He said that I am starting WEDNESDAY. The 15th. I went from having 2 weeks to having 2 DAYS! I'm stoked.

SO, since I got the job, I'm going to see the Pie Tasters with Brinkly next weekend. That should be fun....and now I'm trying to talk Hubby into taking me to see the New Pornographers, Neko Case's band on March 4. They are playing with Belle & Sebastian, which should be cool. I haven't seen them in ages. Anyway.

The snow is boring. It gets me out of cooking though, because hubby loves to grill out in the snow. Yummie. Veggie dogs and burgers for me and good red meat and franks for the rest of them.

okay...so the windows aren't really MINE....

They are the judge's windows, but he said that I can leave the door open and look out of them any time....and the job pays so much more and is so much LESS work....and his law clerk, who I will spend most of my time with, used to be in a band, and went to the performing arts highschool in Philly. She is really cool. We should get along. I think i'll hook her up with Raul. Anyway, my first day at the new gig is 2/27. The perks friggin rock. Hell yeah. I am SO damn excited.

fingers friggin crossed and stuff.....

Okay....

So i just interviewed with the judge today because HE FINALLY FIRED HIS SECRETARY, and it went REALLY REALLY REALLY well, and I really want this job!! It would be a $10,000 raise!! :):):):):) Anyway, he made me feel like he really wanted me to have the job, but he did tell me that there was someone else in the running for it. I tried my best, and hopefully it was enough. I really need this job. I really want this job. He is such a wonderful man and the rest of his staff is just excellent. We'll see....but for now, I'm asking for all the good vibes and prayers and whatever else sent this way! I thank God for this oppritunity, and I pray that if this is His plan, than so be it...but I've also got to understand that if it's not His plan, then he has something better....

But I sure hope the plan is this!!!!


YAY!
