Interview #2 and things to come

I got a call yesterday from the Methodist Children's Home asking if I wanted to interview for a job!! I have an interview with them Monday at 4pm, and I'm really excited about it. This job is the one I was really excited about before I moved to Georgia. I'm glad the interview at Kohl's was first, just so I could have one under my belt. This interview is a little more important to me. Walker's sister, Courtney, works there and she just got a raise. She and I both have a bachelor's in psychology, so I feel like I would be good for this job, the only problem is that they thought she was over qualified for her job. Maybe that means that I could be promoted quickly too, though.

I feel like my double major really helps with a potential job at the Methodist Home. I have a BA in psychology and religion from a Methodist school, so that has to mean something, right?! I really think this job could lead to a career. The other places I applied were more like fillers until I found something better, but this is something that I would enjoy for a long time, I think.

I feel like it's getting to be crunch time as far as my finances go. Walker, the amazing man that he is, has been working his butt off to pay my bills for me. I got a call the other day from Discover that just bought out the student loans from Citi Bank. I have to pay 144.66 by the 20th of August or something bad will happen (I'm not really sure what they will threaten to do, but they make it sound grim). Citi Bank used to call every day, five times a day, but after that one really nice conversation with someone at Discover, I haven't gotten any calls. Now I just have to get all the masters programs to stop calling me and my phone battery will last a little longer.

I'm praying that the interview goes well on Monday, but until I hear about a job I'm just cleaning and organizing my apartment. I think I've vacuumed a million times since I moved in (which reminds me of my aunt Kim and her vacuum) :) and I've taken two trips to the Salvation Army to donate stuff. When i run out of ideas for things to do, I just look on Pinterest for another idea. Right now I'm trying to find a good solution to storing a million necklaces. I found a few ideas, but I want to use things that I have already, and I don't have a rake or a spare towel rack just laying around.

Once again, prayers are greatly appreciated and I will definitely be posting more on the job front when I have more to tell!
