Hey!
I have an update on the bus & bakery jobs. I'm finished with my bus tests!!! I passed everything with flying colors!! ![]()
I AM A SUB BUS DRIVER NOW!!!!
I have subbed one day so far & I have 3 days to sub for the week ahead~ I've had time to ride w/ a few bus drivers so I could get familiar with their routes. What a blast I had! I think I will like it ![]()
Also... the day before Thanksgiving I was driving to my parents & I finally
checked my voice mail on my cell phone... It had 2 calls from the owner of the Cold Stone Creamery. He wanted to see if I was still interested in the decorator's job there. (I told y'all about that a month or so ago remember? I didn't put in for the job my friends told the owner about me & he called me.) I called him & told him yes I was interested! So I have another new job! I've been without a "real" job for 2 years & all of a sudden I have two!
This is going to be such a challenge!! I hope I can do it!
I'm very excited but nervous at the same time. Start 2 new jobs in the same week. Am I crazy or what??? ![]()
I wanted to share my news with the CC family~ Thanks for all the prayers!! Ya'll ROCK!!!!! ![]()
Congratulations, good for you! That is wonderful news for you!

WOW, TC!!! That's awsome!!! ![]()

Now we just need to pray for strength, stamina & patience for you over the next couple of weeks as you start both jobs at the same time...whew!! Oh, but I forgot....your a TURTLE!! Determination is in your blood, right!! ![]()

Congrats! Cold Stone Creamery makes some delicious cakes. I had the owner of one of our local stores take my Course 1 class...I should have offered him free Courses 2 and 3 in exchange for some ice cream cakes.
I know you'll have so much fun with that job!
Thank you!!
Haa Jenn! Determination.. NOT I've got hard headedness in my blood!!
Thanks for that prayer! That's exactly what I'll need!!
Thanks MrsMissey~ Busy little turtle!! I hope I'm up for it!!
Thanks BigCatz!
Thanks Cakepro~ Yes, the cakes are good there!! They only use bettercream & ganache to decorate the cakes. OH, candy & cookies too! The owner said I can add my own touch to make them look prettier if I want. They liked my cake album & said I was very creative. I just hope I can keep my fingers from going into my mouth!!!! I love icecream & I love chocolate!!!!!!! If your ever in Bossier come by! I'll give you some freebies!! ![]()
Oh, I forgot! After the holidays the owner wants to send me to a cake class in Little Rock! I'm very excited about that!! I hope I can last that long!! ![]()
Thanks you guys for the encouragement!!
Congratulations!! Life is going to be a lot more fast paced from now on...enjoy...
That sounds awesome !!! I am sure you will do great!
GREAT NEWS TC!!!!!
WISHING YOU MUCH SUCCESS AND MANY BLESSINGS AS YOU BEGIN
THIS WONDERFUL JOURNEY!! ![]()

Way to go tc!!!! Okay, there is usually someone out there to do the "Happy Dance" and guess it's my turn....
DOIN' THE HAPPY DANCE FOR YA!!!!! ![]()
oh wait...
got the room just a shakin' too much!!! Okay, it was a short lived dance, but dance just the same!
Seriously, Congratulations TC! You'll do just fine and I can't wait to hear how much more you'll learn-or teach them!
Thanks Ya'll!! I've been school bus driving all week! I LOVE IT!! But it sure is cold in the mornings & dark getting the bus started!! I'll be busy the rest of the week. I went to the Creamery today. I think I'll like this job. It's very easy! Plus most of the time all I will be doing is decorating the cakes. The other employees will be putting them together. Ya! Plus they do bday cakes too so I'll be busy with that too. I get to make my own hours which I'm going to love! Never had a job that I could make my own hours!! I just hope I can stay out of the ganache & all the icecream!!!!! It smells sooooooooo good in there!!!
Thanks for all the well wishers for me!! I appreciate the vote in confidence!!!!!! JO, thanks for the happy dance!! I'm dancing too!!
Dodibug, you better look me up! I'd love to meet you! Tell your friends to come in & introduce themselves to me. I love meeting people!!
Adven, you can paint a mural on the side of the bus!! LOL!!!
Pooker, yes! When it rains it pours!!
I will try to keep ya'll posted. I will have to practice more on my torting techniques! I will be doing a lot of torting!! I absolutely hate torting!!! Any tips would be great!! Thanks ya'll!!
How was your first week? You survived?

My goodness what a week I've had!! I started the cake decorating job on Tues evening. I worked till 7:30 pm. Next day went to sub for a bus driver (subbed all week), then went to the cake job, then back to the bus in the afternoon, then back to the cake job till 7:30 pm every night this week! I worked around 12 hours a day! Then went in this morning for a few hours. My feet are killing me!! I asked the owners for a key today. The Cold Stone Creamery doesn't open up till 11 am so I only had a few hours to work before I had to go back to the bus. That's why I've had to go back after the PM routes. Thank goodness they gave me a key today. Now I can go in right after the am bus routes. Ya!!!
The creamery is working out great! I really like it! Then this morning not even 30 minutes after I got there I slipped & fell!! I just got some new tennie shoes & they weren't slick resistant (didn't know til I fell)!! I slipped in some water that another worker spilled. I busted my knee & my elbow up!! My knee is the worst. I finished working even though I had instant bruising & pain!!!!!! Now I can hardly walk on my leg. If this keeps up I'm gonna have to go to the dr. on Monday & have some xrays done. My knee is very swollen! I can't believe the 1st week I fall & get hurt!! Leave it to me to do that!! Ahh!!
