I found work...

I found work.
A while back,
I don't know exactly how long ago without looking,
I blogged about my struggles with finding a job.

I realized today,
after talking with dear friends,
that some of my family & friends are unaware that I have secured employment.
I worked briefly,
2 weeks ago,
before my trip 'home' to
Wichita,
Kansas City,
& Kearney, NE.

Today was, in my mind, my first full day in the office.
What began as a part-time job
just over two weeks ago
is already working it's way towards a full time job.

I'm okay with that.

What concerns me is the learning curve
and my ability to be a help to the organization
and not a drain on them.

I have had to 'train' people before and
Honestly
It takes more time and effort from the established staff members to train a new person.
I hate the thought of being a drain on others.
But there is no doubt that there is a learning curve, and I am in need of some guidance.

In addition to that
I am trying to juggle all the tasks and chores at home in the short few hours I have remaining in the evenings.

I've done this before...
I should have this 'working mom' thing down pat.
But I'm out of practice.

I am very thankful to have an adult daughter and her husband living with me.
I got home from work and they had dinner nearly prepared.
And my daughter cleaned the kitchen while I dealt with other household tasks.
I think I will miss the additional adult household members when they have to move out.

For the meantime I will work on re-adjusting to life as a working mom!

Oh!
By the way...
I am an Executive Assistant At Mid Valley Mentors.
You can find them via Facebook or google them.
