Here's Some Great News

Hello my most wonderful friends!

I am in a beyond fantastic mood today! So many great things are happening and I want to share the happiness. I’m pushing the very educational SMART goals post I had written to tomorrow and instead sharing with you a random assortment of great news and fun pictures and other things to make you smile.

Here’s this tweet:

I checked and that URL does actually re-direct you to Trump’s Wikipedia page. This is both a wonderful idea and factually accurate.

Here’s a selfie I took the other day:

When I sent it to a friend she said that I looked remarkably more put together than usual. I said, “that’s what you get with a face full of makeup and bad lighting.” Clearly, my friends are very nice to me.

Here’s some great news:

Leon and I finally have a house to move into! After weeks of driving to Raleigh every other day and looking at so many houses, we put in an application and got approved. Now we have a move-in date and I feel like we can stop living in limbo.

Here’s some more great news:

I have a second interview tomorrow. I am being cautiously optimistic about this job. A career counselor once told me that on average a person has to interview for six jobs before getting an offer, and this will be my fourth job interview. And while I know that I am seriously impressive and far advanced in everything I do (just ask my mom), I would be way ahead of the curve if I actually get this job. But even still, I’m being cautiously optimistic.

Here’s my lunch:

The power unexpectedly went out last night, so Leon and I had to go out to dinner, and these are the leftovers. There are few things that I love more than leftover Mexican food. 

Here’s a succulent:

I am notoriously bad at keeping houseplants alive. I could show you some half-dead cacti that would make you very sad. But I have kept this little baby alive since my friend’s bridal shower back in the fall, and that makes me very proud.

That’s all the great, amazing news I have for the day. I am so happy and giddy and I am definitely dancing around the house to Meghan Trainor (my newest guilty pleasure). And let me tell you, my dance moves are show stopping!

Share some great news and funny things with me, friends. Let’s keep these good feelings going!

Cheers, Kara
