Good morning! I hope that this morning finds everyone well. I have to say that I can't complain too much this morning.
The weekend was a good one and yesterday's extrication training was.....unique lol.
Today I'm working for Chris so I'm here with her grandmother and working online. I did three errands on my way here today and still got here early lol. Well, ten minutes to spare.
Hubby is still looking for a job. I hate how this is turning out but it is what it is right now. I think he's figuring out how bad of a state we're in now that he's not working. It's not good lol.
I think I'm going to save up for screen printing next. I can save up amazon cards online for that though, I don't really need to save cash.
Oh!! I had my very first CPR class on Friday. It went well, honestly the couple made it easy on me. It took the whole four hours to get them done but I did it. I feel a little better for it but I'm still nervous about doing it on my own lol. According to other instructors I've talked to, I'm middle of the road with pricing.
Then today I put in to become a notary.
Neither "job" will bring in much but it's something.
The shop is coming along. It's slow but sure.
The "game room" is getting there too. We spent the weekend hubby and I, putting together the CD cases. Let me tell you! I thought it was expensive and I overspent. I was completely second guessing spending all my cash outs and little extra money we had for this CD case.
It turned out AMAZING!!! So for the I think $60 I ended up forking out for it, I got two of them and they fit every single CD I own and my grandmother. Mom wants her own and that's fine. I'm just so happy with it.
So to recap gram's room, on the left side of the room when you walk in we have a book case of games, against the wall immediately to your left is the TV and square cubby hole that holds the game systems and then the right wall has both CD cases.
Not too bad. The shop on the other hand is part in the living room and part in the computer room lol. So I'm trying to transition the couch to the computer room and I will be putting it right in the middle of the room. However getting it in there will be challenging and really this whole room switching is a challenge because you have to move things to be able to move other things and it's like tetris.
I'm also working on baskets for Rescue Squad and a Foster Fundraiser Auction. I'm being nice this year I guess. I want to add a few more things and then I need baskets for everything.
I'm working today just working. There are things we need and things I want and things I'm hoping for.
The biggest hope is he gets a job soon. I can work with something, I can't work with nothing.
What is everyone else up to today?

Some people can if they're just doing it on the side and don't really need the income. I was told the base is $25 though it is up to you or your employer.
It's like CPR though, you charge for the card but the actual class is up to you and I know some do it for almost nothing. My price is about the middle but I'm going to donate my services to the Spot this year so they can get the teens certified to be able to watch the littler kids.
