You all know I’m a photographer right? I work from my Residential Gallery day in and day out. After a few months of working by myself I’ve realized how badly I need to mingle with people. See, my sister is a therapist so she talks to people all day long. I, on the other hand, don’t talk to anybody all day long and when Angie comes home, I just want to chit chat and hangout whereas she just wants to come home, relax, and not talk. Can you see how that’s not working out so nicely for either of us?
Finally I decided to go ahead and pick up a part time job. Save Mart Supermarkets hired me at the end of January and I’ve been bagging groceries for approximately 20 hours a week. Can I tell you how great it is?! Seriously, no stress… I go in, do my job, chat with customers, walk around and get some exercise, then come home and do my real work. It’s been pretty amazing. Plus, I get a little paycheck at the end of each week. No complaints here!
Well yesterday while I was working one of the grocery clerks looks at me and she asks, “Are you at least 21?” Shocked and thinking she was joking I responded with a laugh, “I’m 31.” She couldn’t believe it… really, I couldn’t believe it either. Seriously? Do I still look that young (don’t answer that). 
Goodness, I was sad that I didn’t get carded at WPPI in Vegas for the Pictage party. Ha! Thank you Martha! You made my day.

I love Martha! She is so sweet. I’m so glad you found a job that you love and gets you out of the house for a little while. I’ve always thought that SaveMart is probably a great company to work for, b/c their employees always stay there for a long time. Hey you could always start a game night and have a few friends over to play games one or two nights a week too. Some friends introduced us to the game Settlers of Catan and it is so addictive, but you need at least 3 people to play it and it takes about 1.5 hours to play.
So glad you are doing well.
Smiles,
Kim
I am a Settler’s of Catan addict. Been playing it since 2003.
It is pretty fantastic! And some friends of mine do throw a game night which but they seem to be few and far between. I sure do love games though!
That sounds like a perfect job!
It is!!!
I’m turning 30 in SEVEN days! Oh goodness…I still think we look young though
People still think I’m really young, too. I guess that’s a good thing! Game night does sound fun. We enjoy Apples to Apples. It appeals to nerdy me!
Yesterday, I was training a new girl (She’s a 18 year old kid;))

Hey Turner!! Your blog/website/photography is beautiful!!! Don’t get too famous *cough* expensive *cough cough* before I get married (probably a hundred years from now btw). I’ve plugged you a couple of times to friends recently, but I think they already had someone in mind

Hey, I think I will be in town during Mother’s Day weekend! Things can change but at this point we’re good to finally see one another. It’s only been a couple of years right?
And I’ll keep my prices low just for you. Girl, get married soon so I can raise them!
It’s a date!
