So tomorrow it is back to reality. It has been a great year off. Truly...while I have sometimes been so bored I make up things that need to be done, or have gone on crazy cleaning sprees, I have learned to chill out a little bit. As of tomorrow that will all be over. I officially go back to work...not as a teacher...but as a Morrison's sales assistant. In other words I will soon be working in a grocery store. Funny place when I sit here and type that out considering a year ago I had never really taken notice of one before. As a single lady living in the burbs I ate most of my meals out or over at my rents...so why would I need a grocery store. This year changed all of that. I actually know where things are in our grocery store, can cook, and actually ...yes...I admit it...clip coupons to use at the grocery store. I am not saying I will never go back to teaching, and I am not saying I will stay at Morrison's forever, but I wanted to try something new and not work the crazy hours that a school teacher does when I am still adjusting to life here and while Mark and I are still foot lose and fancy free. With school you have set vacation times and just the number of hours I wasn't will to commit to again. So now I have a job that I can leave when the day is over...take vacation when I want to...and best of all get a discount on my groceries for. So that is it. Tomorrow I start and we shall see how it goes. I am not sure what to expect nor if I will be able to handle how different it is from being in a classroom full of kids...but I will try and if worse comes to worse... the best part is...you can always quit mid way through unlike teaching. So here is to tomorrow...earning money...and a discount on my groceries which makes me smile.
Tell next week...
The not taking your work home sounds delightful! Hope it goes well! They'll be lucky to have you. Welcome to transition phase 2. :)
