Barbie Cares
I saw an advertisement on facebook about "Barbie" and so I clicked on it. It was an application for a promotional event at Wal Mart stores all over the United States, called Barbie Cares
Children can bring in their old Barbies to be recycled,
and in return receive a gift from Barbie (Stickers/coloring book). Barbie will interact and take pictures with kids. I thought it sounded really fun and rewarding, so I applied. And I got it! It will be Saturday, November 8th from 11:30-3:30. I will be at the West Valley City Wal Mart. I am so excited for this event, and I even get paid $100! They provide the dress and everything!Here is a what the dress looks like:
But I plan on trying to look more like the one on the right ;)
If you are interested in working this event being Barbie or another fun position, go to https://www.fusiongateway.com/apply/register.cfm And let them know you were referred by Carly because I get $20 per person that I refer. By the way Lindsie, they are looking for a Barbie for Vernal, you should totally do it. I know they'd love to have a hot blond like you.
I thought it would be cool if Josh came with me and was Ken, but he said he was....busy.
Barbie and Ken...except we don't break up like they did...

Glad to be here!
I decided to make the switch to blogger, and I am happy about it. Not that I didn't love my Wordpress blog my sister made me, I just couldn't figure out how to use and change things by myself. So far Blogger has been much easier. I titled this one both mine and Josh's blog, but I'm pretty sure he won't ever be posting anything. I showed him the blog when I was done designing and he says, "Wow...that's...really........girly!"
So anyway, Here's an interesting story that happened to us the other day. We have had a lot of gift cards to Bed Bath an Beyond from our wedding, and it has really helped out a lot. We were there and attempted to use one of the last ones for a good size purchase - over $50. I pulled out a gift card and the lady type in the numbers and told me the gift card was blank. I told her I had never used it before and asked her to try it again. She tried it again a little annoyed that I didn't believe her, and had the same conclusion. Now, I'm gettin pretty peeved here, because I know I had never used that card before. I ask her if there was anything else she could do to check on it. She said she could call customer service if i wanted. If. I. Wanted. ?!
"Um....YEAH." was my reply...and there is justification for me being a brat. She is on the phone with customer service and I hear her say, "Oh. really? thats weird." She hangs up and says to us "There is $75 on this card."
I ACTUALLY HAD my credit card out ready to pay with it. I was so fuming mad..and Josh knew that so he nudged me and just gave me a look to let it go. If I was alone I would have freaked out.
This is weird but before my sister married Lee, I wasnt the type of person to ask someone to go out of their way, as in this situation. What I mean by that is, both Jana and Lee have taught me that it never hurts to ask - in any situation. What do you have to lose? And it is a valuable life lesson to me that has helped in so many situations ever since.
