The RED/WHITE/GREEN Job

I’ve been on a mission to find red/white/green Christmas lights for our house. After driving all around CDA last weekend I thought I’d finally found them at Lowe’s. I was so thrilled. Lo and behold when I opened them up today they cannot be strung together. I was so ticked. [...]

I’d spent the weekend fretting about it in the back of my mind. I had myself convinced that things were already going too well and there was no way that I was going to get The Dream Job. I was wrong. I got the call on Monday morning. After I jumped [...]
