Good News Everyone!

HOLLY GOT HER JOB! *applause*

They finally called her yesterday and let her know that they wanted to hire her. She and I are both excited for the new job and she thinks that she will really enjoy the work. We’ve decided that we are going to go ahead and move to KC now and I will just commute to maryville 3 days a week.

That was the good news. The great news is that she will be able to keep doing her current work at home! They’re getting everything set up so she can work at home and still access all the servers & billing/payroll info.

The best news? We’ll be in KC! … and have fast internet! Now holly and I will never need to fight for the (tiny!) bandwidth again!

The BookStop Coffee Shop

Maryville has one coffee shop that I know of that is not on campus. I decided to pay it a visit today to see what it was like. The Book Stop Coffee Shop delivered the coffee and managed to do it well. Situated on main street between 2nd and 3rd, the Book Stop is right on my way to work! They have a decent but simple setup with good coffee and excellent service! As you walk in, you seem to get both the smell of coffee (yum!) and books. The majority of the shop is set up for books and antiques, but there are plenty of tables set up at the front for patrons. If you're in town visiting, go ahead and stop by. You won't be disappointed!
