Day one

Well. We stayed out late last night, fishing. I was the only one who caught anything, a striped bass about 8" long too small to keep. I also kept snagging clams, much to the amusement of both Rick and Isaiah.
This morning I got a phone call, about 9:30.
"Can you come in to work today? As soon as possible?"
I hadn't taken a shower or anything yet, so I rushed through things and got there about 45 minutes later.

What was a piece of cake 23 years ago the first time I worked there was hard work today!! LOL I really loved it, though. Two of Rhonda's sisters work there, and Sandy was working today, so I got to work with her. They were very impressed with my work, especially since the other girl working today has been there 2 weeks and still can't get done as fast as I did on my first day.
It was 100° again, and it was so hot! All the rooms open onto the parking lot, and most of the rooms had the AC shut off, at least until I got in there and turned them on, just before turning the TV to CMT...LOL
Can't wait ‘til I get used to working again...My back hurts, my feet hurt, and the skin on my hands definantly does not like the harsh chemicals I used all morning! LOL But it is great having a job...

The most amazing thing? This job started just 3 days after I recieved my last unemployment check!

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! I'm doing the happy dance now. Am's got a job, Am's got a job! Yes, you need to take care of your feet for sure, but try to get gloves to wear. I found that my hands are much better if you can get good fitting cleaning gloves. Harsh chemicals are bad bad bad.
I'm so glad they called you. See, there are forces working in your favor. And work is so good for the soul. I'm glad it was this job and not the other one. This will help with the bills and food and such. Good for you Am! Congratulations!
(Does this mean your blog will suffer since you work now AND come home happily beat? :o/ You'll be too tired to post!)
Selfish aren't I?
