I think I love my job...
I think I love my job!! So far I have been there three days and I can say that I am really enjoying it. It is nice to have a cushy job after the many years of manual labor. I love the office environment and the fact that I don't have to worry about working weekends and holidays ever is great. I have to be careful though because it seems like we always have food up there. Yesterday, we got bagels and the supervisor brought cake and ice cream sandwiches to welcome us new people which is pretty cool. I ave never had a job do that before it nice to get recognized that way. There is 4 of us new people ans surprisingly 3 out of the 4 of us are black so I don't know if they were trying to reach a quota or something. All together there are only 5 black people and one of them are leaving at the end of the week. We had more cake today and other food like chips, taco dip, hummus and fruit. So we have had two cakes over the past two days. I pretty much worked by myself today which went pretty good I only asked questions when I wasn't sure of something. I can't wait until I have been there for a couple of months so that I will know more and be able to work independently. I'm glad I get to get off at 4 instead of 4:30 now. It gives me a little extra time to do what I need to do before I pick my kids up. I hope I won't get to point where I start hating my job because I love it and I am planning on staying for the foreseeable future.

After the 4th of July...
Well it is after the 4th of July, I just got back from out of town yesterday and had a good time. Its been a long time since I had been able to take a vacation so I'm glad I was able to but I am glad to be back home too. It was a long car ride. It was a nice time at the beach and it was a pretty nice hotel. I hope we get to go back again. We watched fireworks from the balcony of our room and it seems like that was the best fireworks show I had seen. The only thing that I didn't like about the trip was that we never ate breakfast. They had a lot of pancake places and we didn't go to one.
Now that I am back home, it is time to focus on other things. I have to get back to doing my school work. This half of the summer session I am only taking one class and it has to do with excel. I have already missed turning in a couple of assignments so I have to make sure I do not miss anymore. I have until Sunday to get all my assignments in. The first half of the semester I got a D+ in one of the classes so I have to retake it and I got a B- in the other. I just hope I can stay focused enough to get through the rest of these classes and hopefully do well enough to keep bringing my gpa up. I start my new job on Monday and I am so excited but I still have to buy clothes and I hope I can find the right stuff. I'm suppose to dress business casual so now I have to buy new clothes for this job. I never had to really worry about buying clothes for my job except for pants. I was always provided shirts or scrubs so hopefully I will be able to find things because I am not even sure where to look so wish me luck.
I am definitely going to have to start figuring out where I am going to be moving to. I refuse to keep having to live with my sister. 2 years is long enough and it made me realize that I can not live with other people I need to live alone. I hope I will have it figured out by the end of September. I just wish I knew where I was going to go. I don't know if I am just going to get another apartment or a house and if I am going to buy one or rent. I would love to buy a house but the way my credit score is looking I don't know if I am going to be able to get a place so I'll probably be stuck getting an apartment. I just hope everything works out for the best and I will be able to get a decent place.
