Big Box in Mail

Today, the mailman comes to the door and brings a Large Flat Rate box! At first I am like 'who sent us something?' Well, it was addressed to Chloee -- from her Grandma Jean! Of course Chloee was super excited that a huge box was for her. It had delicious cookies...I could really eat them all, as I have already told Will NOT to eat them all...haha. Her grandma spoiled her with fruit roll ups, gummy bands, milk straws that when you drink through them taste like Strawberry Milk ( I like those! ) Valentine's stickers, plates / napkins, M&Ms.

We are going to have to think of something and send back to Grandma Jean.... :)

2 Days Under My Belt

This past Monday I started my new Part Time job at Whiteside County! So far in the 2 days that I have worked, I strongly feel that I am going to love it and will stay forever :) I still have one more day this week, Friday, but it is casual/jeans day (every Friday) which is really nice!

There is so much to learn and remember, plus a whole new language to learn. With the court house stuff and legal stuff, I feel like I should take some class to refresh on the legal aspects. Never would have guessed there is so much with property taxes, especially when they are paid late! WOW! I shadowed a marriage license yesterday, which does not seem to hard.....until the time I have to actually do it.

I am crossing my fingers that I work out well, as my understanding the last lady did not, I feel a little intimated.
