Once the girls started school and my last two courses haven't started, I decided that I would find a job. A few weeks ago I started my search and was hired for a little drive thru cafe. After a couple of weeks of training, I am now the assistant manager with my very own key. Yes, I am getting up at the crack of dawn to open, but it works out great, Norm can take the girls to school (yes, I get everything ready for the day) and I am home in time to pick them up.
I am really enjoying the job and I have a great boss who is a professional opera singer by the way. I am really tempted just to sing at him someday (just kidding). Anyway, he is helping me get linked up to the theater/musical scene for me and the girls. Oh, and next week I am finishing my final two online courses for my A.S. FINALLY!
Everyone is doing well (much better that California). It has been quite beautiful here. Someone told me if you don't like the weather here be patient and it will change. I find this to be true. It only rains every few days and the most it has rained it about six hours. The temperature dropped one day but in a couple of days it was back to the sixtys. It flucuates quite a bit. Yes, there is a tornado watch in central TN, next to Nashville going up to Louiville in KY. Alas, we are in the east and only now are feeling the "effects". It's raining and windy but that's about all we will get. No, the "fun" stuff is never fully felt here.
By the way, New Years was a lot of fun. There's a cute park area in the middle of downtown adjacent to quaint shops and restaurants where they hold concerts and community events. We had our own "ball drop" replete with bands (mostly country, of course), games, ice skating and marshmellow roast. About 10,000 people attended the event. It was pretty neat.
