First Birthday






I took this photo outside the mall the other day, love the combination of blue and green.


Happy 1st Birthday Prince George!  Have you seen this cute photo of him already walking?

I was at the dentist yesterday for a routine checkup.  The dental assistant was telling me that hygienists make a lot of money, like $50 an hour.  However, the assistants make about half of that.  Furthermore, a full time job for assistants these days is a rarity.  Most work several days at one place, several days at another in order to get full time hours.  It seems a full time job in any profession is hard to find these days.

  5. I love seeing the flower baskets out. They take such care, and you know someone is caring for them. I was happy to retire and let someone else have a job.

  6. I came via Kay’s blog and enjoyed looking at some of your past posts. These purple flowers are pretty – not sure what they are, but they look lovely.

  7. I hear full-time is pretty hard to dental assistants. For as much dental offices make, you'd think they'd resist the greed a little bit.

  8. I've talked to quite a few people at the mall who've strung several retail jobs together in order to make ends meet. Very sad.

  9. So true. Good full time jobs are hard to find these days. In the old days, people stayed in one job all their lives. Nowadays, a few short years seem to be more common.

  10. Beautiful flower! And congratulations.

    Dentists are expensive. The last time I went my dentist said my braces was worn and I needed a new one. And there gone R$ 200. On August 7th I will go there again. I hope it doesn't cost anything :b

  12. How cute that little prince is! David says dental hygienists don't make that much in Hawaii. $50/hr is obscene! Lol.
