Certifiably...rambling

I'm officially CPR certified...again...for the fourth time. This class was full of other people who had been certified before, so it was more like a review class and recertification than the full blown deal, so it was better than I expected.

The training was supposed to end at 4pm..then she said 2pm at the latest...and we were out by 1pm. I love that. Since I was out early, I drove to Haverty's to meet all the lovely people I've heard about from Walker. Everyone seems really nice and they LOVE Walker, so I approve.

Walker walked me around the showroom and told me about his favorite pieces. They have the coolest bedroom suits with hidden jewelery trays and hanging places for necklaces...like behind a sliding mirror or in the weird gap between drawers in your dresser...it's really cool. Since Walker gets a hefty discount, we're totally getting a bedroom suit when we get married...it's already been decided. :) haha

The rest of the afternoon, I've been on pinterest. I've been reading blogs, finding inspiration for future investments in my apartment and my wardrobe. :) I was on pinterest last night when I decided to go to bed by 11...then 11:30...then midnight...then I finally had to close my computer...at 1:30. ha! I'm addicted.

Tomorrow is another early morning. One cool thing that I forgot to mention in my blog yesterday was that I love the kids. It's officially a fact. I have worked in two cottage for one day each, and I already have kids yelling "hey, Ms. Courtney" when they see me walking around campus. It's really cool. There was a sweet girl with CP in the first cottage I worked in that was just precious. I wish I could adopt her as a little sister. She loves reading and has pretty good taste in music too.

I don't know a lot about the Methodist Home, aside from it's history since 1872, but I think that my dream job would be over one cottage. I forget the official title, but there is one person in each cottage who knows all the kids and oversees everything that goes on. You can tell who they are because, aside from having their own office in the cottage, they are typically suit-wearing men or women. If you saw a group of staff at the Methodist Home you could divide them into groups of who-does-what by looking at what they wear...It's kind of interesting to me.

It's 4pm, so I'm officially off the clock! haha...T-5 hours till bed time!
