My first BIG job & a new car!!

So by now you know that I started

working for The Container Store a few weeks ago.

If you didn't know...now you do ;)

So up until now the only jobs i've held have

been part time filler jobs.

I worked while i was in school at my

University as well as a local Bakery here in Fort Worth.

Both jobs were so fantastic for me at the time

and I'm so glad i had those opportunities.

I also nannied quite a bit over the last year and a half.

So I've held a few jobs here and there

over the past couple of years but none of my

past job experiences have been like my new job...

Which makes sense..I've had a pretty natural progression

to my first professional gig.

Granted I probably would have been in my professional job

sooner but I found love first...you know ;)

Anyways...so here I am in my new job and

it's been so great!

I've made some great friends, I have the nicest co-workers ever

and my office building is pretty incredible if I do say so myself.

I could do without the rush-hour traffic but

that's unfortunately a part of life.

This week I'm in "Design School"

I'm learning the ins and outs of closet design.

Closet design as well as other types of designs,

office, craft room, pantry...all sorts of fun things.

I've never been that much of an organizer but

this job has really changed me for the better.

I'm now obsessed with all things organization.

It also helps that there is a pretty sweeeeeeet discount involved ;)

I also have some fun news other than the new job...

I got a new car!!!

This was my first grand purchase of my adult life.

I'm pretty proud of him and proud of myself for

getting him all by myself ;)

His name is Chuck, Chuck Boris Jr.

My old car was called Boris so we had to pay respect to him in the new car.

I'm so adult and so not adult all at the same time.

So new job, new car, working on a Visa for Tom

& looking at future new apartments!

Things are looking pretty great around here!!

We'll see how great I feel at the end of this week

after 40+ hours of design school training!! ;)

Hope you're all having a great week!
