The new job is going to be really good. I have a great feeling about it.  My boss is one who will allow me to take control and do what needs to be done to get the job done. I am extremely excited to be working in that sort of environment again.  I thrive on it. PLUS, not only are my hours flexible (for the most part), I don’t have to take a full hour for lunch. I can take less time and leave early if I feel like it. So essentially, I work 7.5 hours but can cut it down to about 7. I am extremely stoked about it!!

In other news. The shit keeps coming. Mom’s very very god friend passed away last night. Its sad, very sad. Since she was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago. Also, Ralph’s aunt Mary passed away yesterday too. Though, she lived to be over 100 years old!! She had a phenomenal life.

I will have pictures soon. My lorna’s sweater is still almost done. I am just too tired this evening to do much more than write this, have a bath after I watch Hell’s Kitchen and then crash .. hard!

So I got a new job. I am not sure the pay yet as I have to go in on Tuesday and sign all the papers along with seeing the offer letter. I promise to share more. It is full time which is something that I had not planned on. However, it is actually 10 hours less than the old job for at least the same amount of money.

I have two weeks off due to the security checks ect that needs to be done and my new boss will be travelling all of next week so there is no point in me being there.

YAY.

So during this time I am going to work really hard at getting my whole house organized like I want it to be.

Tomorrow I will be at Make1 with Karen. Keeping her company.
