Career Change and Elusive Peanut Butter

I realize it has been a long time since I have posted anything. So I decided while my chocolate cheesecake was in the oven, I should update you on some big and not so big details in my life.

I am currently full time jobless. Through some circumstances that are neither here nor there, I found myself on April 15 losing my almost 7 year job as Office Manager for the Auburn Church of Christ. Granted I saw the train acoming but had thought it was still a ways away. Luckily, I had just obtained a part time job at my favorite resturant, Niffer's, though at the lake location. The reason for this investigated experience into food service is because I had been looking for awhile at various culinary schools but never taking the thought too serious.

The week before April 15, a group of guys I pray with had prayed over me to help me with this decision. One guy prayed that the answer be clear and the door wide open or something to that effect. So with me losing a job, I realized that perhaps this was the answer. In retrospect, the answer had been there along, though I kept flinging that fleece out asking for re-assurance.

So beginning in July, I will be a student at the Arts Institute in Nashville, to begin my training. I am excited though I hate looking for an apartment and am still trying to determine the pros and cons of moving there early which will mean paying rent in 2 places for 2 months. So we shall see...

In other news, I have been on a search for Fat Free Jiff Peanut Butter, it was readily available till the Peter Pan PB recall and then it disappeared. I have only found it once in 5 weeks and that was only one small jar. So the search continues.
