No Longer Unemployed!!!

Well hello my friends. So excited to inform you all that I have a job now, whew...no more panic mode. I started today and everyone at the company seems very nice, they took me out to lunch to congratulate me. I'm doing graphic design of course...business cards, brochures, a little bit of web design. So to say the least everything is coming together nicely for me thus far here in Phoenix. I am so grateful for the success I've had. Got the house, the job, now I just have to tackle the task of making friends. I'm on it. 

Love yas!

The New Digs

So this is my new dwelling, for those of you who asked for pictures. 

My room is itty bitty, I feel like I'm in a dorm room again, but it could be worse. I love my little window seat.

This is the view of my street. Palm trees, cool.

Here's Rocco enjoying his new living room.

These are the purty flowers that I have a view of outside the window in my room.

I got a great deal on my bed, the fellow who sold it to me had moved here from NC. (cuz ya know we southerners help eachother out) I had a job interview yesterday that seemed to go well...so we'll see what happens with that. I applied for a waitressing job today and really need to get out there and apply for more, so that's what my life will consist of for the time being...looking for employment lol. Luckily I have some freelance work to take the edge off. That's all for now. 

My new city

Made it to Phoenix!!! I keep saying that the drive was beautiful...well it was again. Went over the mountains to get here and it was amazing. I've heard a lot of people say the desert doesn't make for good scenery. There may not be as much green but the mountains and the sunset make up for it in my opinion. 

I met my roomies, both very nice girls & am looking forward to getting to know them better. (The pup is my roomie's dog Famous) Visited with my aunt & uncle today in Mesa. My uncle Larry looks a lot like my dad, and for some reason instead of the resemblance making me feel closer to home I felt further away. It made me a little homesick. I'm sad I won't be able to see my parents so often anymore. It will take some getting used to. Thank God for cell phones, internet, & airplanes.

So I'm calling Phoenix my new home. I'm thrilled to be here and ready to become familiar with the city. I feel like I'm in the right place so far.

Finally New Pics!

Yay! I'm finally updating with photos. I made it to Las Vegas, NM today around 7 pm. I really enjoyed my visit to Denver, got to spend lots of time with my family. And here in Vegas I'm visiting my Uncle Don & Aunt Tammy. The drive here was only 5 hours and had a great view. Tomorrow I'm off to Phoenix to conclude my road trip.

Here are some pics!
