Hi Ho, Hi Ho....

This is week 2 of my new job. It feels good to be back in the workforce and it also feels good that the financial pressures will be lifted a bit.

I laid low last weekend. I still haven't given up my position at Time Zone and worked on Saturday. That was a six day work week, and I don't think I've done that since 1994. I know I will eventually have to let it go, but I love having the hook up to great clothes and other goodies. I know when good stuff comes in and I usually get a price break on some of it. Consignors will often sell to me for less, and many times my boss gifts me things. I will miss it, but the reality is that it was a "play" job. I didn't feel like I was working. I had a lot of joy helping people find the right vintage outfit and help girls find a great dress that fit them just right. The big difference is that I just didn't make enough money. I make more in a week at my new job than I did in a month at my old job.

Thursday is Frank and my 15th wedding anniversary. Not sure how we are going to celebrate, and since I work now, I don't want to be out late.

I may go to Verdi Club tonight (I know, it's a work night!) but it is Lola Devlin's birthday and Carl Sonny Leyland is playing. I'll bring my camera to work, just in case I go.

When I get in the groove of working, you will hear more from me again.

Glad to hear work is ok, sad that you have to leave the shop though, hard choices eh?

Congrats on your anniversary, it was our 17th this year so we're on the same track that way!
