Back to Workin'

     Hullo people. I just wanted to post an update to let you all know that I got a new job. :) I was pretty excited about it earlier, now the nervous part has settled in a little more, but still excited. And as a newlywed wife without a child it will definitely be good for me to work, and good for us to have some extra income. And yes for those of you who didn't gather as much until now, I have been out of work for quite some time. November in fact. :D Like just before Jordon decided to ask me to marry him.

     I will be working at a little floral shop. There are two of them in our small town, so I guess people like to buy flowers here. I will be doing several things, including caring for the shop, helping customers, caring for and arranging flowers, and making silk flower arrangements. I don't know yet if she will have me learn boutonnieres and corsages. That would be pretty cool. Although a tad bit daunting. Not as daunting however, as wondering if I will get lost if I ever have to make deliveries. Yes it's a small town so I will probably be ok. But I have a horrible sense of direction, and knocking on strangers doors is quite unpleasant (as I learned from my job as a motel maid).

     I got the call today, and am supposed to call her back tomorrow to confirm that the schedule and everything works, and talk about when I can start. She suggested next week. As in Monday, which is in like two days. :P That seems rather soon to me, so I think I will ask her if I can wait an extra week. And I am planning on asking if she could possibly change the schedule a bit for me as well. The woman I am replacing was working Mondays Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and a Saturday or two. Jordon has Mondays off but not Saturdays, so it would be nicer for me to have Mondays of to spend with my man. I like having Sunday off with him, but our activities are more limited as we try to reverently observe the Sabbath Day.

     I always feel so awkward talking to employers. Like I am naive and don't have the right to assert myself. But I push through that anyways, because I know it's ridiculous. Of course I have the right to be a confident woman and voice my wishes and opinions. I deserve respect as much as anyone and I know that. :D 

     So, wish me luck! Pray that all goes well. <3
