In my last blog I mentioned how much I missed doing nails, I am taking this opportunity and go back to doing what I miss right now. I was burnt out in Colorado and that is why it was very exciting to sell new homes at Engle, only I was still doing nails at home. I still had that bond with people and was getting to literally see a few friends everyday. What a breakthrough! I'm not sure why it took me so long to realize that I was missing getting to socialize even be needed.
I went yesterday and got my Arizona drivers license (finally) and scouted out some salons in the area. I am still waiting on my reciprocity license to come in. It is hard when you are new to an area but I drove around where I thought I would like to work and went in to talk to the people and get a feel. One thing about salons is they can be a little territorial. You need to make sure you are going to be working with people you think you can get along with and that fit your personality. It amazes me the way women will act towards each other. I visited about 7 places one I really liked just hired its 4th nail tech. I don't want to work with a bunch of other nail techs trying to build their clientele too. That was the mistake I made when I started doing nails. So I have narrowed it down, but I'm going to keep looking. One salon is just across the street from my house and it was very nice, for now it is my number one.
This month has just been FULL of visitors for us. The 1st Jacobs cousin and fiance came out for a few days. We went swimming, shopping, ate at a wonderful restaurant in downtown Scottsdale called Mastro's. Jacob's steak was HUGE and the best he's ever had. I loved mine too, but I can't decide if my favorite was the baked 4 cheese macaroni or the garlic mashed potatoes. MMMmmm
Sunday we took a drive to Sedona. I was hoping to get to spend a little more time in Sedona since its a drive, but it was a great trip. The weekend really went very fast.
I was pretty groggy from my motion sickness pill, I swear I was having conversations with myself because I was so tired I couldn't make myself talk! We took a hike in to get a better look at some of the great rock formations there, how I got my legs to work I'm not sure. LOL I think they could revamp those pills somehow so maybe people could function on them! I really hate feeling that way and I feel bad for everyone around me, I'm just not much company. Thankfully they wear off.... In 24 hours.
Marcia, Peter and Marie came out a few days after Jeremy and Jessie left. We are always very excited to see them! I think Peter was pretty excited to see Dax, and Dax was pretty happy himself. They wanted to take us out to dinner and of course my parents wanted to meet them so we had them all come over. From our house we went to Monti's in downtown Tempe. Steve had taken us there when he came out to visit in June, so I knew right where to drive. Awesome! Everyone got along great, the food was good. We had a great time. I really miss Marcia, shes an awesome lady. That whole family is great really, couldn't ask for a better second family LOL. We were sad our visit was so short with them, but they were off to California then Vegas. What a road trip!
On Thursday our best friends are coming into town. We are SO excited! Corre and Brock are going to stay with us and the other boys are getting a hotel room. I have a feeling that there will be quite a lot of drinking going on so I hope everything stays in order. If that's possible. We aren't sure if we are going tubing down the salt or going to a football game but they have a lot of things in mind.
Well, that's long enough now isn't it! I won't wait so long next time. Oh and engagement picture lady is a flake. Still no disk of pictures, she gave a lame excuse and said the new disk is on its way. So I guess we will see.
