Things Are Looking Uphill ...

Feels like ages since I've talked with Greywhistle ... just thought I'd throw that out there.

SO!! My thanks to all my fabulous FB friends and family who dutifully and courteously crossed their fingers, and offerred other lucky signs and efforts ... I got the job I had been hoping for. Orientation is tomorrow and I'll learn about schedules and wages. I'll be starting in the store, and then focussing on the greenhouse when planting comes in full swing. I'm so excited about it! My only worries now are a place to live, getting my things to my new place from the storage site, and how to afford it all. So the stress isn't necessarily less, but the list of worries is shorter. :)

Even Jade is happy for me. He celebrated the occassion by agreeing to pitch in an amount of funds to keep my bank account from bouncing. Yay! I hope he comes through and actually does it. Ideally, he'll have the truck sold before I have to move in 3 weeks, but I don't know that I'm due for another miracle so soon. ;)

So Joyce has been here for about a week now and we haven't killed each other. (Which is amazing because she has a bad habit of timing her visits with my menstral cycle.) Anyway, we've got the house half packed. Getting to the point where we are thinking of what to leave out 'til last, so that I have something to play house with. :)

Did anybody get a chance to see the Canadian Figure Skating Dance Finals? OUTSTANDING!! Always makes me want to learn to skate ... nothing fancy, just some simple things to have fun with so that I'm not going in circles like a drone. Anyway, they were the best that I've seen in years. I normally have little patience for pairs skating, so this was kind of like an a-ha moment.

June is shaping up into a busy month. I've got a trip planned with friends for a birthday bash (shared with Jackie!), and I'll have a competition with the band as well. Will finally be trotted out to show off the twirling that I'm trying to hard to figure out. O.o!

Well, I have to run outside for more wood before my fire completely dies ... will write more soon. Hope everybody is well. Happy and healthy ... Spring is coming for the rest of you soon! ;)

Sweet Dreams!
