I had my first shift back at RMH and it was great. Very easy shift with lots of time to chat with the parents and play with the littlies. I was also given a bit of a project, cleaning out the playroom cupboard and making a list of toys, books etc for the house manager to buy. And we all know I love me some organising! My OCD tendencies had a chance to shine as I not only divided the books into age appropriate groupings, but then grouped them according to genre and alphabetical genre! Lol. They have already roped me into doing an extra shift tomorrow.
I called home and found out my mum's hubby got the job he was going for, which is fantastic news, as it was beginning to look like he might have to move away to find work... not great for a newly married couple. But he got the job, so they can stay settled and living close to my grandparents. He was also really sweet about the decision I've made regarding uni, and told me that he was really glad that I was sounding so good.
On the way home I swung by Grill'd, this gourmet burger franchise that I am totally in love with! The Zen Hen burger is to die for. I ran into and old work colleague and we had a little catch up which was great. He could always make me smile.
Tomorrow I have a full day, babysitting all day, straight to therapy and then straight to RMH to work the evening shift. It will be exhausting, but all fun... well apart from therapy, but its been ok recently...guess it just depends on what direction she decides to push.
I'm listening to Jason Mraz at the moment, which is beautiful and quite upbeat too, and soon I'll head for the comfort of my doona and pillow. Sleep is still remarkably good. Yay!
Peace and love

I'm loving this new found happiness, Miss O. It's so amazing to hear you all smiley! You totally rock. Wish you were close enough to go for a burger and a beer, but figure it's not really feasible! Maybe one day when I master the art of teleportation!

You sound like you're so happy. I'm so glad! It's definitely not dramatic to compare it to a fog lifting-- I've heard that that's what it is really like.

I am so happy that you sound so happy and that things are going well for you right now. It's good when we feel good about ourselves because you can later remind yourself that you can feel good. The burger franchise sounds good, I haven't heard of it. Though I do tend to not notice things.
