A good starter
I was reading another blog via Google reader and the author had posted a dip that they make using cream cheese and sweet & spicy salsa. It reminded me of this dip that I made for Christmas dinner. This is two bricks of cream cheese, 1 can of baby shrimp (drained) and cocktail sauce. It went over pretty well.

New Job Update
Well, it's only a small update. I am currently waiting for one agency to find out from another agency if I'm eligible. If this works out I will be a very happy camper. For those that want to know more, e-mail me. I will only give out more information that way right now.

A puzzle, flowers and two bottles
I know, interesting post title. It was the best I could come up with for this collection of pictures.
We finally finished the puzzle that we started at the beginning of August when Nicholas was here on vacation. It will sit on the table completed until this Friday so he can see that it's complete. Then into the box and the donation pile it will go.
Shawn picked up this bottle while I was in another store. He was looking for a vase but wasn't impressed with their selection. This bottle has a cork topper but we will only be using it as a vase.
The reason we got the above bottle. Shawn bought me flowers while we out running our errands.
I had mentioned to Shawn that I wanted a bottle like the ones below for my olive oil. We found these at a local dollar store although the price was $1.25 each. I picked up one of each design because......
I'm using one for my vegetable oil and one for my EVOO. The left bottle is vegetable oil and the right bottle is EVOO. I think they will come in very handy soon as I'm going to be teaching my neighbor how to cook.
Oh, I might have the possibility of another job. I'll keep ya'll posted.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I should be back in bed trying to get a few more hours sleep but it's not going to happen. Shawn & I got up at 4:15 am. We got him to his co-worker's house and then I headed to his ex's house. Today was a test run for my new "job" starting next week. I will be helping out by getting the kids on the bus.
Shawn fixed dinner last night as he was home first. We had chicken nuggets, stuffing and green beans.

Getting ready for some early mornings
No picture of dinner tonight. It was simple. "Shake & Bake" pork chops and zucchini & summer squash sauteed together.
I was approached on Thursday by the kids' mother about helping her with getting the kids on the bus once she starts back to work. Samantha is scheduled for the bus at 7:10 and Nicholas at 7:50. Their mother has to leave by 6:30 for her revised schedule at her job. Shawn was able to work out a deal with someone at his job to meet up with them for a ride to work. That means though that I will be at his ex's house about 5:30. Shawn talked with her this evening to see if that was ok with her. She stated that it was ok. We will be doing a test run of everything on Friday and I will start on Tuesday.
I already told Shawn that I'm going to premake an easy breakfast (i.e. egg sandwich or set up oatmeal) the night before so that I can have something to eat. I do know I'll be taking my sweet tea with me.
