So...I've been trying to read other people's blogs and it's kinda looking like everyone is trying to be super private...and I haven't been INVITED to view anyone's blog...so...if you want me to be all up in your bizzness I'd love to be.
Especially, Jamie, Rachel, (Candace and Paula I don't even know where your blogs are but I assume they're private too...) and anyone else reading this PLEASE email me with where I can find your blog and such.
Thanks all.
Love, the Fiebs

unemployed
This week I have been unemployed, and have been sooo happy - not because I'm jobless, but because I don't have to work crazy hours for crazy managers!! On Tuesday I heard from the boss of the company I interviewed with a couple of weeks ago (the credit collection/law office). They want me as an Administrative Assistant, and I couldn't be happier! The company seems really solid, and I already know I'm going to like the environment, which is really important to me when it comes to my job. I start on Monday (which just happens to be my birthday).
I have been sooo extremely tired this week. I've taken a nap every day since Monday (or possibly Sunday), and I don't know what my problem is! I don't know if it's simply the fact that I CAN take a nap, so it just happens, or what. I really hope I'm not this tired when next week rolls around and I'm supposed to be starting my new job...
This Sunday I'm playing a special musical number in sacrament meeting. I'm a little nervous because I haven't really played the piano consistently since at least high school, and I'm really out of practice. I was practicing at the church a couple of days ago, though, and everyone that heard me practicing said it was beautiful, so hopefully it goes well and I don't completely botch it.
Scott and I are still ships passing in the night...I thought it would be better now that I'm not going to work at all hours of the night, but I still feel like I never see the boy! This weekend should be fun though. We don't have any plans yet except we're planning on going to the temple Saturday. It will just be nice to spend some time with him! And we haven't been to the temple together for a few weeks, so that will be reeeeally nice too.
Oh, we got conned into a meeting with Primerica this week...that was exciting. TWO HOURS of learning about their pyramid scheming sales techniques. It seems like an alright company I suppose, but I was REALLY not interested and I don't think Scott was either. No offense to anyone who has, does, or ever will sell Primerica, but no thank you. lol.
I'll let you know how the new job goes next week!

First Blog!!!
So...I keep finding more and more people I know that are making blogs, so I finally gave in! I don't know how often I'll be able to update though, I've been pretty busy lately :)
I guess first I should say, for everyone who may not know, that Harry is Scott's middle name and Yvonne is mine. When we first started dating we were joking with a couple of friends from high school that when we got old we would start going by our middle names so that we could fit in at the old folk's homes...hence the name of the blog.
Back to the present, Scott and I started school at the beginning of this month. Scott's taking 14 credits, I'm taking 18, and we're both working full-time!! However, my hours at ShopKo have been cut back dramatically because I'm quitting soon. My manager has some kind of vendetta against any person that she feels is making life any bit harder for her. So since I decided my last day would be next Saturday, she's only been scheduling me 25 hours or so a week, and I've been working the WORST hours of my life. For example, this next week I'm working Sunday from 4 p.m.-10; Monday from 12 (midnight) to 8 a.m.; Tuesday from 12 to 8 a.m.; and Saturday from 4 (in the morning!!!) to 12. Ughhh...
I had an interview yesterday for a small company where I would be working as an Administrative Assistant. It seems like a pretty cool office, and the guy that interviewed me seemed super nice. Plus, Cameron Jones and Tyler Nelson already work there, and I've known both of them forever so I think it would be a fun work environment. I also applied for the post office (which was a total circus, I had to jump through SOOO many hoops), and I should know about that any day! So hopefully something works out.
Work's been kinda rough for Scott lately too. They've been really busy and have been planning on hiring more people at least since May, and still haven't. You'll have to ask him for more details than that, but I hope that things get better over there soon.
We're really excited for conference this weekend! We're headed to Evanston, and I have no idea how we're going to break up our time there between our families. This trip is going to end up being a lot shorter than we want it to be to accomodate both our work schedules. We're really excited to see our parents/siblings though. Should be fun.
