Hi Ho... Hi Ho... It's back to work I go...
Monday I started a new job for A&T Plumbing as their Office Manager. Boy has it been strange! I got to work on Monday and the owner Andre explains to me that he has no idea what the person does that sits behind my desk and hands me a stack of paperwork that needs to be done. He proceeds to leave my office and head upstairs. Good thing I didn't exaggerate in my interview! Luckily I was able to figure out their process pretty quickly and as of 4:00 today I have accomplished the last 2 months worth of work. I am not sure whether this is a good or a bad thing... I am hoping there is more to my job than I am seeing although I highly doubt it. I honestly can't see how this can remain a full time job, but I will remain hopeful until I get my head around all of it. The worst thing about going back to work has definitely been my schedule, in order to accommodate Austin's carpool I requested to start work at 9:30. Well, I didn't really do the math beforehand and now I don't get out of work until 6:00! I still have to get up by 6:30 to get the kids off to school so there is no sleeping in benefit either. I am hoping to adjust to this new craziness in the next couple of weeks and somehow find more fun time to spend with my kids! I miss them like crazy and this week has been very hard on all of us, hopefully we will all adjust and it will soon seem normal again.

Oh wow, that really would suck getting off that late. But it probably seems worse now since it's winter time and dark outside. Besides being gone all day during the summer, it'll probably seem earlier when you get home since it'll still be light outside and the kids will want to stay up later at night. Good luck, it looks like you definitely have your work cut out for you!
