Getting Settled In
Wow! Seems almost like we have been here forever. In a good way. We both really like it here. It feels like home. Feels weird to say that but it’s how I feel here, and I don’t even feel that way in the town I grew up in. It’s that comfortable, favourite pair of shoes feeling. I can’t explain it very well. lol It just feels like I was meant to be here.
Started my new job today. It went well. Need to get back into suggestive selling. It’s been so long since I worked retail, but I have always liked it. The ladies I work with/for are very nice. Emily, the link is in the side bar under “Scrapbook Stores”. It’s the only one there. I think I’ll like it there. I might end up doing kids birthday parties. Hummm… Need to think about that one a bit. Maybe if I can think of a few ideas for little projects to do with them I’ll jump in and say yes to that one.
I went to apply for another part time job at a flower shop and the lady told me that she had already filled it.
I was sad as I’d love to work in a flower shop, at least once, but she asked if she could put me on her call list for busy seasons so I said sure. Can’t hurt, might help.
Trying to find a more permanent place to live and another job or two. What ever it takes. I need to call the man I interviewed with last week. I have a plan that will make taking that position doable, if it is still available next summer. I can take the training while DD is at her dad’s for a month. She doesn’t want to go for a month but she might not have a choice in the matter unless she gets a summer job. She does think she should be able to come with me when I go for this training. lol I don’t! lol I think I’d get a lot more done without her. No offense intended, she’s just really distracting (in a good way).
My DD has been so lovey dovey since we moved her. Seems weird but I’m enjoying having her say she loves me more. Even if she is saying it because she has done/ is doing something she knows will make me grouchy. lol And I am also enjoying more hugs and kisses. Shh! Don’t tell her or she might quit. lol Mwah! Love ya hun!
Well, I have a ton of stuff to do so I should get going. TTYL
