Made in Richmond

I started my new job today.  Boy howdy, it is different from teaching.  I mean, obviously it would be different but it was a total shock to my system.  I didn’t get home until 6 but I actually had enough energy to get some things done around the house AND to have a conversation with Ross.  I’m getting ready to go to the gym in a few minutes, too.  And I’ll have you know that I made several trips to the bathroom without having to worry about what was going on in my absence.  I thought about sending an email to my former teaching colleagues letting them know when I had finished my first lunch hour (as opposed to lunch 15 minutes), but I thought that would be unkind.

Everyone is really nice and they all seem to enjoy being at work.  I didn’t hear anyone complain about one thing all day which is very encouraging.

This job definitely requires me to use a different part of my brain, but I’m excited about the challenge.  I’m out of my comfort zone and I like it.  Honestly, I’m thrilled about going to work tomorrow.

Thanks for all of the good luck wishes!
