This morning I to get up at the butt crack of dawn to go to a staff meeting for my new job.
Wait, let me say that again.
I had to go to work.
I am finally employed! And it’s not at Michaels! It’s at a real live library! And I’m going to be paid! Not much, but [...]
I’m checking in from Grand Rapids today - I’m here recuperating at my parents after the whirlwind that was yesterday and waiting to have dinner for my father’s 73rd birthday (and the man still doesn’t know when he’s going to retire.)
