Enough Jobs to Last a Lifetime
Over the years I have accumulated quite a colorful resume.
Actually, I should say since I got married I have enjoyed more jobs than moves. I know. Is that possible?
If I put it all down on paper it would take up over three pages. Just what an employer wants to see: three plus pages of bullet-points.
But, as of today, February 25, 2009, I have reached a mile stone. I have worked at Bessemer Trust for one full year. I haven't worked any where for one full year, unless you count baby-sitting the Worley kids from the time I was 11 years old until I left Plano to attend Texas A&M. I'll have to work at Bessemer 8 more years to beat that record.
In celebration of my employment anniversary, I give you, my extensive resume, complete and unedited, friends edition.

Hey,

WOW, that is pretty extensive, a girl who can proofread you essay, (Do you proofread your comments?) drive you to school and bring you a Starbucks mocha for the ride.
Thanks for you input on the sunset pics.
I got the new nikon d90. I'm going to take a photography class next semester. There is so much to learn about taking pictures. I don't know much but I'm having fun learning. Did you take classes or is your talent natural? I'm having a hard time figuring out what all the settings mean, how to set them, and most importantly under what conditions do I set which setting!!!!
I read that you went to the marriage seminar again this past month and was wondering how it was. I read on the web site that they had revamped it for 2009. Jeremy and I were thinking about going again. We went last year and were wondering how "revamped" it was.
Good to hear from you....
