New Job

So I started the new job this week. It is sure different to start over after being with one company for so long. I did have kind of a cool surprise, I got to work on the entry doors for the IF Temple. We changed out the frames and doors and put in leaded glass. Very beautiful. It will also be nice for elderly and handicapped patrons, there are now automatic doors...Not like at a grocery store, but push button operated. I worked on that most of the week, in and out of the shop. I'll snap some shots and post them soon.

On the cover of a magazine!

So I have been working out a lot lately. In fact Runner's World magazine asked me to model for them....Ok so that is total BS. Duh!! A guy in my ward asked me to put his face on this picture and it turned out really cool. Jess wanted me to do it with my face too. What do you think? I think it just makes me look like a shirtless pedophile! Good for a laugh!

Unemployed

Toph at Starlight Skating

Well, I’m unemployed…until Monday that is. After 5 years at Cherry Glass I decided it was time to move on. I didn’t see myself earning enough there to get into a house. They just weren’t willing to pay me what I need. So Monday I start working for Jenkins Glass. They do only commercial work, and some euro shower doors. It will help to have a little more $, and It will be interesting to try out something new. What I am excited for is that they are doing the windows in the Rexburg Temple. The glass and frames will be here around the end of February. That will be great to be a part of that. I am also looking into other, more long-term, jobs. I just need to find something that will help me meet my goal of getting a house this year—wish us luck.

Creedance had a lot of fun.

We have been out playing with the kids. We went ice skating and roller skating. I think they liked the roller skating more…a bit easier and a lot warmer.

Jess also had a project for me in the kids’ closet. She wanted to have some shelves to put their toys in. There always seemed to be a big pile of toys there. Here's the kids testing the structural integrity of them.

It has been a few crazy weeks.
