Job Interview

I have a job interview tomorrow at the Museum of Science and Industry; the position would be the Coordinator of Membership and Community Affairs. I’d be a go- between the Membership and Community Affairs departments, problem solving, event planning (fund raisers, trips for members, and assisting with board meetings), publication reading and writing. The tasks are a great mix of all the skills I’ve honed in the last several years, and a great chance to get my foot in the door in the Museum circuit of Chicago!

My temp gig is going well, but it’d be nice to be in a place with a little more security (not to mention benefits)!

So Nine A.M.- Noon, Monday send some good vibrations my way, or just cross your fingers!

It’s taken most of the folks I went to school with about six months to find a ‘real’ position after graduation—my six months is nearing a close, so I should be due to land something, but one never can tell.

Thanks gang!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Thanks everyone for coming out for the 3 Kring-ing in the New Year!
We had a great time!

The first day of 2007 we struggled out of bed and spent the day with Zoppa (Mr. Krings- to you). We joined Andrew & Laura for some yummy yummy Indian food! It's always great to take Laura to the Indian (dot, not feather) areas because she gets this cute accent, she knows how to order all the food, and she eats it the right way with her right hand, sans utensil and without her left hand!

Good news! Friends & Family will be getting their holiday cards soon! We'll be mailing them when the post office opens again on Wednesday!
