New Job

I am two and a half weeks into my new job.  After the first week I wanted to quit.  I went to a different location and the same thing.  This week I am back to the same location as the first week and still kind of want to.  There is so much pressure, so many different people training and never any breaks.  The location I applied to is no longer the one they want me to work at.  The one I am to be working at is farther from home and where my horse is boarded at.  

Ugh!!!!  I don't know what to do.  This is the second company that has changed the position after offering it to me.  I just don't get it.  We kind of need the money and Target is so hard on my body.  But to spend all my time at work or commuting isn't really helping with the finances. 

I think I will try to work at this company longer so that it looks great on my resume then start applying again.  This will be good for the finances also.  I will see how long I can afford the gas and handle having no sleep.

Another New Job

I just completed my first week at a new job.  I started Monday at a clinic that deals with the retina of the eye.  I am a front desk medical receptionist.  

Of course, the first three days there was snow and made the traffic move very slow.  Some days I start at 7 and other days I can start at 8.  It was very overwhelming and I still feel like I know very little.  I trained at one location and next week I will be working at the location I applied for.

Tomorrow I work at Target.  I have a short shift and am happy for that.  Right now Target has few payroll hours and I only get one day to work out of the weekend.

My children are back at college so it has been nice for my husband having the house to himself.

My son has four classes left to take.  Praying he passes them and then he will graduate from college in May.  He will then be looking for a job.  Praying for that also.

I know that God has answered my prayers.  But, I will see how long I am at this company.

The Holidays

We celebrated the second Thanksgiving and Christmas without my mom.  It was the first without my mother-in-law.  We had Thanksgiving at my daughter's house with her husband.  For Christmas Eve, I did work but was able to go to church with my family and my brother's.  After that, we went over to their house for supper.  My daughter and son-in-law weren't there.  My brother's oldest daughter and husband weren't there.  His other daughter and boyfriend were there.  It was nice.

Christmas Day was just our family.  It was a lovely meal.  It rained, and rained and rained.  The temperature started dropping and the winds became stronger.  By the next day there was ice almost every where along with gusty winds.

I worked New Year's Eve and then spend the evening with a friend.  We watched When Calls The Heart on Netflix.

The kids are back at college.  The routine is back.
