Splendiferous Saturday

I have to admit that I am very sore from my first full day at work yesterday. The job isn’t that hard other than it requires a lot of repetition, lifting and sorting. I like the sorting part.

Another nice thing is that although I’m a ‘casual’ employee, working only 19 hours a week, I am working 38-39 hours this week. I honestly hope that I can keep up with the apartment, cooking and working. I’m sure that I will get the hang of it again even though it has been 10 years since I’ve had a full time job.

Even though I was exhausted when I got home, I felt great. It was nice to be out of the apartment doing something productive for myself and giving me an income.

I even opened my checking account today so my checks can be direct deposited. I’m becoming a resident here one step at a time. I still get excited about the progress as I make this my permanent home.

I went into to get fuel earlier and the cashier asked me “where did you get that accent?” I laughed and told her Mississippi. She didn’t spell it for me like most people do, she just told me that she moved here from Nashville, TN and has been here 20 years. She still loves it here, too.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday!
