Written on Thursday, February 22nd, 2007 @ 11:09pm Written on Thursday, February 22nd, 2007 @ 11:09pmOkay so here is the latest and greatest avec moi. As of yesterday (Wednesday) my place is officially vacant. The locksmith comes on Friday and by the time Joshua gets off work, we will have our set of keys. Saturday will be my major move day as I get to borrow my dad’s truck plus Joshua is borrowing his dad’s trailer. During the week my goal is to get all my paint so that I can get most or all of my place painted by the week after next.
Today was my last day at Old Navy 6151. A few of the girls surprised me by getting me a HUGE cake and balloons, both saying “We’ll Miss You.” I literally cried when I walked in seeing what they set up for me. I was so touched. I didn’t anything would really happen but throughout the day people surprised me by wishing me luck and giving me hugs. By the time I left work, I felt sad because I really am going to miss my 2nd family.
I’ve been trying to transfer to GAP since their is one 10-15 minutes away from my place. However, they’ve made it clear they have no desire to hire me on so my next choice was to transfer to the Old Navy in Novato which is about 20-30 minutes away. My manager got ahold of the GM there and he seemed to be very interested. I called the store this evening, talked to one of the supervisors there and she set me up with an interview on Wednesday at 4:30pm. By interview, they mean a chance to meet me, and talking to this supervisor she already informed me of my pay raise (WOO!!) and how the whole transferring would work. So basically, I have a job and that has taken so much stress off my chest.
After work, I went over to my Nana’s house to pick up her cat carriers. I’m adopting Becca’s cat so I need another cat carrier and since Nana’s cats are long gone, she was more than happy to give me her cat carriers. Well, as I was leaving I had a very emotional moment in which Nana confronted me about my whole moving situation and she wished me the best of luck and has trust me. She said didn’t want to lose me nor my love, and while she doesn’t like my situation, she’s still gonna stand by me. I was very moved by her finally talking to me about it, and I am glad that she still cares about our relationship.
I can’t tell you guys enough how stoked I am to finally be moving out on my own. I’m starting to get a mixture of feelings, knowing that I’ll be leaving the comforts of home behind. It’ll be interesting to see where life takes me …

Wow! You have an exciting life! :D The cake and balloons sounded so sweet, I probably would have cried too! :P
That’s good that you and your Nana are sorting things out, fighting with your family is never good.
Lol, I’ll be so nervous when I move out, it seem so scary!
I finally put my new layout up. It’s…interesting…and I think it’s getting better as people suggest things I could do with it, lol! :P
Hahah! We must have been commenting on each other’s blogs at the same time! Lol!
Thanks, I love the photo (which I noticed you used when you did a Wicked layout too!), but it’s not the best quality, so when I fix the header I’m going to try and blur it a little bit to make it less…blah.
Hopefully it works!
That’s so exciting for you!
I’m moving in a couple months too, and I’m getting jitters just thinking about it! Excited jitters…but still kind of nervous! I bet you’ll have a blast though. :D
Good luck on your move in day! :D
dude, moving out is so much better. One of the most peaceful moments is going to the bathroom. NO ONE TO BUG YOU. Oh, it’s sublime…
That is so nice of your friends from work n__n
I think i would have cried too.
That is awesome about the transferring and getting a raise!
And how touching. I’m glad your Nana has enough love for you to put the situation behind her and just focus on your relationship with her. I would hate to lose a relationship like that with my grandmother just because of some personal choices.
But good luck on the move, and everything!!
I bet you’ll be just fine.
So yes, change is good! heh.
Ah, I am desperate to know how your new place is doing?! I hope your job interview thing goes well tomorrow! Good luck…but congrats on the pay raise! Your grandma sounds like mine…she supports me but doesn’t necessarily like my choice. She keeps asking when Peter and I are getting married. I want to tell her really soon because I totally want to. But Peter wants to wait until after school is done. Who knows, that could be years. Anyway, yay for you again!!
