New Job
As if I don't have enough to do already I have decided to take on something else. A month ago I went to interview to teach aerobics at LA Fitness. When I was auditioning I was asked if I have had any management experience. (Some of you may remember my glory days as a manager at The Gap and Aeropostale.) I was then asked if I would consider being the group fitness coordinator for a gym here in Arizona. I thought about it for about a half a second and said, "YES!" Since then I have been going through the interviewing process and teaching classes to prove that I actually knew my stuff...and today it became official. I am the new activities and group fitness coordinator for LA Fitness at the Moon Valley location. I am very excited about this new opportunity. I like to stay busy and always have something to do and I think this will fill my plate. I truly believe that Heavenly Father never closes one door with out opening another. Our family has been so blessed to always have what we need and, more than offten, what we want. This job will open a lot of doors for me in the fitness industry and keep me busy as my kids start school. (Not to mention help me keep off all the baby weight from all these kids!)

Mommy Hours
Before I had children I would hear my friends and family talk about how they stayed up late because that was the only time they could get stuff done with out the kids around. I always thought that was just crazy and when I was a mother I would be able to get all my stuff done during the day so I could sleep at night. Fast forward to two kids later...and well I have changed my tune.
On Sunday the new coupons for the week came out so Monday I got up and got ready to cut my coupons. There we so many good deals I had a TON of coupons to cut. I sat in the office at the computer and cut all the coupons while Jackson watched TV. Sometime while he was watching Jimmy Neutron (his new favorite show) he got hungry and pulled down a box of cinnamon toast crunch. He "poured" him self a bowl where he poured the entire box in the bowl and all over the floor and then, because he couldn't open the fridge, he took my workout water bottle and poured water on it to make cereal. While all this was happening I was in coupon heaven and did not notice until my son came in covered from head to toe in cinnamon and sugar! Then of course I had to clean it up so I got out the vacuum but Duke wanted to be breast feed. So, here is the picture it is 11:00 we are all in our pajamas, Jackson (and the floor) is covered in sugar, there are coupons everywhere and I have one boob out breast feeding as I am vacuuming with the other arm. So what did I learn from all this? My friends and family really knew what they were talking about. I will now cut my coupons at 11:00pm.
