Tuesday Turn About #348 April Ideas: The party has started and we have spring decor, crafts, DIYs, and recipes to inspire you!
TUESDAY TURN ABOUT #348 APRIL IDEAS
Last week’s party was all about spring fun.
Welcome to the first party of April 2026!
Did you have a blessed Easter?
It’s been a busy week around here, so let’s get right to the party featuring all kinds of different posts from Blogland! We’ve got recipes, RVing tips, a blogger that is trying her hand at video reels, and so much more!
Abode Adventures
Our family enjoyed fellowshipping at church and then gathering for an easy-to-fix lunch with the extended family at my sister and brother’s-in-law home! It was a good day!
On Saturday, when I arrived at work, my manager let me know that the manager from another local Hobby Lobby wanted me to give her a call.
You see, a couple weeks ago, with permission from my current manager, I called all the HLs within a 30-minute drive. I spoke with the managers and let them know that I was looking for full-time work with HL, as my current manager did not see a full-time position for me in the near future.
No one had any openings.
So, this past week, I started asking the Lord to show me where He wanted me to go and what He wanted me to do.
Then came the call…The manager at the sister store let me know that she suddenly had an opening for a customer service manager (the exact position I preferred, but was open to any full-time option). After a few questions, she asked if we could meet on Monday afternoon, so she could say she actually interviewed me before hiring me. 😀
And the verdict is?
I will be starting the CSM position on April 20! God is good! And even if I had NOT gotten the job, He is STILL good! It all seems a bit surreal to me still!

My Wee Finds
The dress code will be a bit different for this position. Instead of a knit top and a Hobby Lobby vest, I will be wearing some more business casual blouses… and I can even wear capris!
Here are a few blouses I’m looking at:
Because of all that’s going on here… Tips will (hopefully) return next week!
Now, let’s get to some features!
Though not a requirement at all, I would be SO blessed if you would subscribe and/or follow me either here on the blog, Facebook, Pinterest, or Instagram. Thanks!

Thank you for hosting. Congratulations on getting that position at work. God is always so good to us. Take care and have a wonderful week.
Yes, He is so good. Even if I hadn’t gotten the job… He is good!
Congratulations on the job, Julie!! They sure made a good decision when they hired you. I love your faithfulness. Thanks so much for the party!
Awww, you are so sweet! I’m so thankful to the Lord for HIS faithfulness, even when I am SO unfaithful!
Congratulations on the job! Wishing you all the success and happiness. Thank you so much for hosting and have a wonderful week!
Thanks so much, Jennifer! And you are so welcome!
Congrats, taking a plan and going forward! Thanks for hosting, have a great week ahead.
Thanks, Melynda!

Thanks, Deb! I’m looking forward to the new location, but I will miss my fellow employees SO much!
So happy for you and the new job! God is So Good! You will be a rock star for them!
And love the blouses, the last ones are my favorite! Have a great day my friend!
Thanks, Melan! He is INDEED good… all the time!
Congratulations Julie!! Way to be proactive, plus wearing a lovely blouse is so much more fun than an HL vest! Thanks so much for featuring my maiden video voyage! (I’ve had it on good authority that the second and third attempts are better.) I can’t wait to dive in to all the goodness at the party today. Thanks as always for hosting among all your other obligations and a busy life! Take care till next time, and thanks again for the feature!
You are so welcome! It was fun watching the video and reading the post! I’m sure you’ll do great on future videos, too!
Congrats Julie. Hope all goes smoothly as you transition to your new position. The blouses are super cute and the gingham was my favorite. Thank you for the party and I appreciate the feature. I’m glad you enjoyed my new thrift mindset. Have a great week. XO- MaryJo
Thank you so much, MaryJo! I’m excited, but it WILL be different! You are so welcome!
Happy Easter! Thank you so much for featuring my March Reads and Spring Salads at your Link Party this week! I really appreciate it. Have a great week and we’ll see you next time!
You are SO welcome!
Praise God Julie….our God is so good! Thanks for the party. Blessings
Yes… He is good, all the time!
God is good! Congratulations on the new position, Julie! It sounds like the perfect fit for you!
Thank you SO much!!!
Congratulations on your new position! So happy for you! Thank you for including my Biblical herbs post in your featured posts. It was an enjoyable post to put together. Happy Spring!
Thank you, and YOU are so welcome! Good to see you back at the party!
Hey Julie! Great news, you will be perfect for this job and I’m sure you will enjoy helping customers in this new position. It may take a little time to become accustomed to full time work and initially more tiring. Don’t push yourself too hard when you get home in the evening, feet up time!! Good luck.

Thanks, Pamela… Yes, yesterday, when I clocked out, I said to one of my supervisors, “I’m tired… and I’ll be adding two hours to my schedule each day!” His reply… “Yes, but you will be moving around. There is a big difference between standing 6 hours in one place each day as a cashier, vs moving around as a CSM.” That was very encouraging! I WILL be careful! Hugs!
