March Meal Plan

Well, so far, so good. I'm not sticking to my meal plans 100% but close enough that it helps make life simpler still. Need that because today I'm tackling the pantry. Oh yeah  (haha!)

And congrats are in my order to my beautiful and amazing daughter, who has a new job! Both the store manager and assistant at another Joann's store in Utah are facing major family challenges, and needed to walk away from the new store that is set to open THIS TUESDAY. The current district manager is the first manager Cowgirl worked for at the Orem store and she has proved over and over that she can trusted as an excellent leader. He called to offer her the job Thursday, she accepted Friday, works her last day today at her current store where she is the assistant manger, and will start on Monday at the new store as the main Store Manager - the day before it opens! She'll have her hands full, but is more than capable. And in fact, I think her new team will love her. She knows how to lead with kindness and still make the sure the job is done right.

There is a long story that goes with this, how everything has been lining up for where she knew she needed to make a change. She's been looking around at several opportunities, and when this one fell in her lap, everything was in order to make it happen easily and quickly. She'll even be able to finish her degree all online and because she will make the schedule, she can work it around her tests, etc. to get her business degree completed within two years. All while working full time, and being able to go to church every Sunday. Many blessings!!!
