May Update

In the last two weeks, I've been working my tail off trying to find a job at a law firm. However, I'm currently in the same position as before. The positive is that I had an interview with Hudson Legal, a document review company that seems to be a little more put together than the company that I was working with last fall. In other words, they seem to know about projects more than just a couple of days ahead of time. I don't know anything definite at this point, but it looks like I may be on a project by the beginning of June. I don't want to jinx it by talking about it too much, though.

Lauren is enjoying her job with It's Fashion!, a division of Cato Corp. She's working as assistant buyer for a buyer who is originally from New Zealand. She's still learning her way around, and last week, the buyers went to New York on their monthly trip to "market," leaving Lauren and the other new assistant to do more training things and get more acclimated. However, she didn't really have much to do, for those three days. After the buyer returned, however, Lauren had a pretty good bit of work to do. At this point, she loves her job and is very happy that she got it, even though she's still pretty tired most of the time. She's really enjoying the weekends off. Yesterday, we had a Sunday School picnic at the church and cooked out and enjoyed the great weather. She never would have been able to do that if she was still working in retail.

Connor is the same. He's still chewing on anything he can get his mouth on, including the collar stays that I take out of my shirts before I wash them. He's still a good dog in general though. Here's a picture of him wearing some new "bling."
