Job Hunting


*Chase and Abra following up on jobs*

The first day after we got here we went out looking for jobs.  It was a huge believing adventure.  We applied EVERRRYYYWHERE!  It really doesn't matter where we work, we just need at least 20 hours a week at minimum wage....ahh the beauty of budgeting.  It took us some time to all get employed.  A couple guys in our group were the first to get jobs.  Oddly enough, it was at Victoria's Secret.  All the girls in the group will be taking full advantage of this discount.   
The rest of us got jobs at different locations...McDonald's, La Quinta hotel, Michael's, Shogun, Charlotte Russe, Starbucks, and Chick-Fil-A.  Brent and I are so thankful because he is able to work full-time at his job...McDonald's :).  Once he got those hours we decided I would just stay home with Jack.  While I have loved staying at home with him for the last 18 months, I was sort of looking forward to getting a job.  I guess God knew that because the next day Michael's called me and offered me a part-time position.  They are very flexible with my schedule and are giving me the hours I want.  It will only be around 15 hours a week, which is perfect for me and our family.  God is good.  

This was our verse to claim while we searched diligently for jobs...

"Faithful is He that calleth you, who also will do it."  
-1 Thess 5:24
