Over the moon.
We opened a second bank account for direct deposit. Saving all our pennies to get the heck outta Dodge. That feels AMAZING.
Okay, I can't stay online. All showered. Two days of food prepped, dog food made, dryer almost done. After work today I hit Target for extra work shirts.
I am OVER THE MOON.
In other news, the KitchenAid Bowl Lift Stand Mixer is heaven. I'll drop a video down below. I cannot stop using this machine. OMG. Best purchase in a long time.
And that my Boogerbutts, is all that's fit to print. Chat again soon. Off to my coffin with a book, soon.
Congrats on the new job!!!

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your words of condolence on Derry's passing. I wish being an adult wasn't so difficult. I really appreciate the support, especially as it's been years since I blogged as "Fuzzy Tales" and I'm really on the fringes of the CB. ♥
Very, very sorry to read about Derry's passing. Heart breaking.
DeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteThank you!

ReplyDeleteHey Mari! Very cool that you have a mixer too. What do you like to make with yours?
DeleteCongratulations!!!!!!!!! So where is your job? Where is 'getting out of dodge"? Good luck. You were excited about that mixer - you use it every day?
ReplyDeleteOMG! Love the mixer. I use it often. So easy to make dough and other goodies. LOVE IT!
DeleteMany, many, many, many, many and many more CONGRATULATIONS :)
ReplyDeleteSo pleased for you :)
All the best Jan
Thank you, Jan. It's nice to get a pay check and stash those pennies!
DeleteCongratulations on the new job. May it be all and more than you hope it will be.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Happy One! We are saving those pennies from the new job, to put on the new house/land.
DeleteCongrats on the new job.
ReplyDeleteMuch thanks, Pam!
DeleteCongrats, Whisk...hope it's a fun one!
ReplyDelete: )
Hey JB! Thank you!
DeleteIvy the cat is in the top right corner of the photo.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Christine! I really see it in the entire picture. That's funny! Thanks for letting me know where the real one was. That was fun. Happy Spring!
DeleteCongrats on the job.
ReplyDeleteHiYa Mary! Thanks.
DeleteCongratulations on getting the job, Ivy! And, yes, I LOVE my KitchenAid! I use it almost every day! Have a great first full day tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteHey Rebecca! Thank you. OMG. Love, love, love the KitchenAid. What do you like to make most in yours?
DeleteI use it for everything! I use the dough hook for breads (biscuits, rolls, pizza dough), the paddle for meats (meatloaf, meatballs), cookie dough, and candies, and the whisk for just about everything else (cakes, pie fillings, puddings). I use it, literally, almost every day.
DeleteI LOVE THAT! I took forever to finally get one because I thought I'd only use it for one thing. Now, I cannot imagine life without it. So, so, soooo useful. Thanks, Rebecca. Here's to lots of yummy days ahead.
DeleteWhat kind of job did you get?
ReplyDeleteA part-time one and so far, we're saving all our pennies from the job, to go toward the house.
DeleteCongrats ! Happy for you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteHi Ivy~ Congratulations on your new job! It's always a big plus to be excited and like your new job! I love my Kitchenaid, they are wonderful and make mixing dough such a easy job! Good luck! Barb
ReplyDeleteHey Barb! OMG. Such a help when making dough. It's amazing how much time is saved. I just cannot believe how much I love this new kitchen toy.
DeleteCongrats Ivy! I hope it works out well and you get the house...
ReplyDeleteThank you. Saving all our pennies.
DeleteYAY to the job!!!! Hope you´ll have loads of fun, great colleagues and.... did I mention fun?
ReplyDeleteYou sleep in a coffin, too? So did Ingo as a kid, LOL. (It was an old drawer at his Grandmother´s).
Thank you, Iris! Funny about the coffin. I don't really sleep in one I just say coffin or slab because I like fun spooky silly stuff. I love that Ingo did though, a drawer at his Gram's. That's funny.
DeleteCongrats on the new job! I how you LOVE it! And yes, the Kitchenaid mixer is my favorite kitchen accessorie too!
ReplyDeleteOMG, Theresa! A mixer is something that I just took so long to finally get and now, I cannot imagine a kitchen without it! So fun. How goes you and the family? Taking any fun trips this summer?
DeleteSomeone was giving a kitchenaid mixer on my community free group this week and I'm like, what!?!? They got a new one and I'm over here thinking, but 2 is certainly better than 1 LOL.
DeleteNo summer travel plans on the horizon. We're also still saving to get the heck out of dodge so we've tightened the spending bootstraps lately. We did just get back from 3 weeks in Florida in January though it was work travel (but we still managed to hit the beach and hit up a few thrift stores while we were there!) How is the new job going?
Ohhhh, sounds fun to be gone for three weeks. Yes, we tightened our boot straps with grocery bill. Every penny from my job goes into the house fund and every other penny we save does too! New job not bad. Just not enough hours. lololol on the mixer. They are crazy fun!
DeleteCongratulations, lots of great stuff to look forward to :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Polly. Feels good to have a new job.
DeleteI am so pleased for you that you got a job. Good luck with it and hope it is everything you wish for from a job.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Neet xx
Thank you! How goes you today, Neet????
DeleteHappy to learn you have a new job. I know you will keep us posted. Hoping all went well.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Hard to believe how quickly time at the new job goes. Whoosh. How goes you this week?
DeleteHow is it going? Hope all is well.
ReplyDeleteHey! Thank you for stopping in today. Home from work and working on a new build. How goes you this week?
Deleteokay, caught up with an old friend I hope to keep up with!
DeleteThat sounds WONDERFUL! Love that.
DeleteJust stopping by to say hello, and hope all is well.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Hi Jan! Thank you bunches for stopping in today. Home today working on a table. How goes you?
DeleteWe're going well, thank you.
DeleteIt was low carb pancake day yesterday :)
Take care.
All the best Jan
Pancake day is fun. Low-Carb Pancake Day! That's very, very cool for you guys. LOVE THAT!!!!!
DeleteWhat is your job?
ReplyDeleteHey Ginny! I can't say where I work though I can say I work with people. Happy Weekend and boogie boogie.
DeleteBIG CONGRATS on the job (and that machine!) - Hope your colleagues are as great as mine, even if you maybe work from home like I do! To FUN!
ReplyDeleteFor the new job, I don't get to work at home. That's okay though. I don't mind leaving the house. It's been fun. Very cool that you get to work at home!
DeleteHUGE CONGRATULATIONS :-)
ReplyDeleteMuch, much thanks.
DeleteCongrats on the job!
ReplyDeleteMuch thanks!
DeleteHi Ivy! I love your blog and your style of writing and your cartoons! Oh my goodness, it's so unique and HAPPY. I would like to add it to the list of blogs I follow. Congratulations on your new job. Hope you love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy! Thank you for adding me. Much, much thanks for the wonderful comment. You just gave me the biggest smile!
DeleteYay on the new job and the mixer (I love mine but not as much as my air fryer or Dash - those are my three favorite kitchen tools). Hope it all went well on job this week and sounds like you did some great preplanning with the meal prep and new clothes.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Air fryers are great. Just roasted peppers in mine today. Delightful. I need to get better at meal planning for sure. Once the job took off, I relied more and more on not my own foods. Working on it though! What do you like to air fry the most?
DeleteCongrats. I hope your first day and all your days since then have gone great. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteHey Erika! Thank you!
DeleteThank you for following my cooking blog, Is She Cooking, or What?
ReplyDeleteI love your quirky attitide...how fun! So much sadness in today's world...it feels good to just laugh.
Have a lovely day, sweetheart.
