Blahhhh.....

Well still no job news. If anyone calls my phone, you will hear my new voicemail say that it's "Brittany with Little Black Dress Cards." Basically this is something new that I am doing with a friend in Dallas. It's a card company and I am a sales rep in Alabama. I'm super excited about it and can't wait to really get it going. It's something fun I am doing on the side. Karley (that I lived with in Dallas) is the artist for them. I actually talked about the company on a previous post. If you like the picture at the top of my blog, you will love these cards! Karley drew this pic. There are pictures on the website of all of the cards, but the pictures do not do them justice. They are sooo cute!

Please keep praying about my job situation. I'm getting all of my stuff together to substitute teach until I find something else.

This is all I have for now. I had some pics I wanted to post, but I can't get them to upload. I'm off to find out who got kicked off of Dancing with the Stars.....


***Update: The picture below is from my friend Charli's Grand Opening of her hair school. It was a pretty fancy event and it was so much fun. Reubon Studdard's wife is in the hair school with her. We walked into the event with him. We tried to play it cool and pretend like we always see "celebrities" but that lasted for about 1.5 seconds until I turned around and told him I couldn't just pretend like he wasn't walking behind me :) Apparently he is doing very well in the R&B music industry so we can consider him a celebrity.


After I wrote this post last night, I applied for a job that I would absolutely love! So I'm praying that they find favor on me. I really don't have the experience I would need for it, but you never know! I've realized if I want a job in the "real world" I have to get my foot in the door somewhere. Which means I will have to deal with bad pay and bad benefits most likely.

No news isn't good news!

Whoever made up the saying "no news is good news" obviously was NOT trying to find a job!  I have nothing to share with anyone, because as of 3pm today I am currently without a job.  Ugh!!!!!  So frustrating!  
And it's not because I'm not trying.  The only explanation I have is that God just has a different plan.  And I am definitely stepping outside of the box and just applying for things that I never thought I would!

Funny Story:  Yesterday I was looking on monster.com and came across this add:

Job Description
DANCERS Needed for Dayshift Apply at Sammy's 342 Valley Avenue.

I emailed my dad to ask him what he thought.  He said I should just check and see about the money. ha!  I mean, I was praying that I could get a good job working the dayshift.?.?  And Sammy's is the "classy" strip club in B'ham...... but I guess I'm not that desperate yet ;) And I don't think it was really from the Lord.

Ok, I'm going to get back to work finding me a real job.  It's looking like I might substitute teach some until something else comes up.  It's not bad money and I will save a ton in gas!

Keep Praying!!!!
