This economy rocks!!

Well as many of you are aware the economy kinda sucks just a little right now. Bryce's home building business is taking a direct effect to that as I'm sure are most of your jobs and business as well. Things are getting just a little scary, and this winter we have known is going to be even worse, and of course my job, designing, people just don't find the need for it when they don't have money, go figure! I've got a couple of jobs I'm working on right now and Bryce has a few homes going but I just got a little nervous, so I got a job at an Endodontist's office, you are now looking at the all amazing designer/dental assistant. Those are some pretty serious credentials. I knew taking on this job that it would be full time, but not as crazy as it is. I have to be to work at 7:15 and then I don't get off usually until around 5:45ish, wow those are long days, especially when I'm coming from being my own boss, working whatever hours I want, and getting paid really well when I do it, but now? So now I have to do my design stuff on Saturday's, still help Bryce with his book work, and try and fulfill my calling as 2nd counselor in the YW. It is definitely taking some getting used to, and a lot more organization and I think I need to get myself a cape and start calling myself "Wonder Women" ha ha. Although things are tough right now I know they could be a lot worse, some people don't even have a job and I have plural, I still have a roof over my head, and food on the table, whether I make it or not it's still food, I have so much to be thankful for and I just need to remind myself of that every now and then.

YEA!! I am glad you are alive. I was beginning to worry. But I am sad you had to stop doing what you love full-time to do something else. If I know you though, you are making the most of it. I love you J-girl.

I want to play!! Can you call in sick to your jobs? :)

You'll make it, you always do. After Obama was elected last night, Me and Kelly might both be finding a new job. He'll probably put Kelly out of work with his National Health Care plan :(

You are Wonder Woman Janica. I'm sorry life is so crazy and busy for you right now. I guess we can only go up from here though right? Cross your fingers. Thanks for all you guys do for us. We'll all pull through.

These are really rough times. We just went through the "unemployed" thing. But we got out of that much easier than a lot of people. You are a busy busy woman! Hopefully, before you know it you will be back designing full time. I could really use a designers touch on my house! You're awesome Janica!!
