I don't know where the summer has gone, but tomorrow is the first day of August and I simply can't believe it! So much has gone on this year in the "Day" family and time just seems to fly by! Just this year alone I have received a promotion at work(the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce) from Administrative Assistant to Membership Account Executive - VERY exciting! I began this new position after Chris and I took a much needed vacation to the beach house in April. This job is so wonderful for me and I truly love the people I work with on a daily basis. It also fits into my "I just want to help" criteria because I get to see people who are in business and offer them the opportunity to take advantage of what all the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce has to offer to "help" their business. The Lord works in so many ways with this job and it is so amazing to see what He can do through you when you let Him! Chris is still busy as always working for "Team Don Day" with Prudential Rowland Real Estate. Althought the market has slowed down the Team is still listing and selling houses, lots, whatever they can put a sign on/in and praising God each time that closing date comes around and those papers are signed :) We are so blessed to be working jobs that we both love. There is not that dreaded every day realization that you have to get up for work - haha although sometimes you wish you didn't have to go in until LATER! We also get to improve the Quality of Life in our community with what we do and continue to build Rutherford County into a wonderful place for us to live and one day(far, far away!) have a family here.
Speaking of family - Missy the cat and Ellie the dog are still ruling the roost. We now have a new friend with our good friend's italian greyhound, Clyde, that Ellie is in love with. He comes over to visit quite a bit - which Missy isn't a huge fan of. But, she tolerates them both and I think they knew where they stand with her. One time Ellie ended up with one of Missy's claws left in her hair after Missy went after Clyde for running by her too quickly and Ellie was quick to defend! They are so funny together!
