Handywoman

Yesterday I took on my first home improvement project by myself... it was mostly successful, so I'm going to call it a win.
Since we have two bathrooms in our home we kind of have a "his" and "hers" thing going on. Both are pretty dated and we haven't done anything (except paint) to update them. The bathroom I use is also the most visible bathroom in the house, so it's kinda been on my mind that I'd like to do a little renovation in there, when we have the time and money.
Anyway, both bathrooms have these ugly glass shower doors. It's not that I hate the idea of shower doors, because if they had nice frosted glass or something a little more modern they might be okay. But they are hard to get clean and the kinds we had featured the 90's pebbled glass look, which I figure will not earn us any money when we try to sell our home. So I ripped them out in favor of a shower curtain. All by myself. And it looks pretty decent.
The only mistake was that in prying off part of the assembly I nicked the tub. This would have been a lot more disappointing if it was the first nick in our bathroom. But now it's just something I'll fix when I go to fix the sink that somehow got chipped also.
I'm hoping that when (if?) life settles down I'll be able to tackle more of these one-day projects. I already have several things on a list of improvements to do like: rip out the other shower doors (if Matt will let me in HIS bathroom), frame out the kitchen cabinets, and resurface the countertops.
But, alas, married life (or maybe summer, or maybe simply the aftermath of really withdrawing from society for several months to plan the wedding) has been busy. We have been out of town every weekend this summer, and this week (now that we are finally home) we have something going on almost every night of the week (wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday, sunday) and stuff we couldn't squeeze into this week already queued up for next week.
I'm sure all the moms (if any moms have time to read this) are rolling their eyes at me right now, but to me that is a lot of stuff going on and it's difficult to balance it all.

That was today's. The chances are really slim that I would ever land that job, although it would be awesome if I did, because it's pretty much my dream job.
Should I allow myself to hope?

One a day, every day

Today I applied for a position as a showroom assistant at a NW Portland firm. It's basically data entry/receptionist type stuff, but at least they are looking for someone with a creative streak.
This sounds a little more up my alley, so I'm hoping I get a call.

Today I sent out my first resume. It's for a receptionist at a financial advisory firm. I really want the job.
