I officially accepted a position yesterday morning. 

I start on Monday. 

I will be working 2nd shift (1-9pm, 3-11pm).

The company is in the social service arena, and provides residential rehabilitation services to young girls ages 11-18. I’ll be working directly with the girls in a supervisor type capacity. Think paper work/craft coordinator. 

I’m really, really excited. It is the perfect first job in this field. And a perfect way to see if this is the kind of place where I could make my career. 

The job is in Northern Kentucky, so I will be moving from my parent’s home in Louisville, KY to a currently unknown apartment/house near Cincinnati, OH. 

Mister’s aunt lives up that way and has kindly offered me a bed until we can find a place. 

The mister will be moving with me, but perhaps not for another month or two, until he finishes out his current job. 

There are many reasons that we are choosing to move to the Cincinnati area, but I think that all deserves its own post.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your kind words of support and encouragement these past two (okay, three) months. I can’t tell you the difference it made to know that I am not the only one going through a rough patch. 

So… THANK YOU!

Obsessing over: This song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApwS4L8exYo, and mountain music in general. 

Working on: Helping mister’s mama with Thanksgiving prep. She has around 50 people to her house for Thanksgiving. Can you fucking imagine?

Thinking about: How dirty my dirty pup is. But it’s raining and muddy, so is a bath even worth it at this point?

Anticipating: Starting my job next Monday.

Listening to: Mister playing his banjo. I won’t ever forget how this makes me feel. 

Drinking: Coffee with Skinny Caramel Macchiato creamer

Wishing: That I could both start this new job, and also continue to be unemployed. Because, really, it’s been kind of like a permanent vacation.
