I have not posted lately because of my new job and feeling so tired. I love my new job. I have to use my brain which is a good thing.
Just wanted to report that I did get the job that I had applied for. I started on Thursday. All the same nice coworkers were there. My temp buddy also got hired. I was reading government circulars and trying to figure out my benefits. We had orientation on Thursday and also it just happened to be quarterly potluck time. I am still pinching myself. Hope the rest of you have good luck on the job front.
We have been going to a different Farmer's Market where one of the vendors has the most delicious bread. Last weekend we had squash walnut bread and my husband made french toast. It was delicious.
We went to the Sunset Valley Farmer's market today. I shot some shots in raw. Aperture was supposed to support my raw format but it did not. I had to go back into Olympus Master. My husband was fixated on a butterfly which went from one purple coneflower after another. I did manage to get one decent shot. I was more focused on food. My best pictures were of peppers and red onions. Tomorrow we head to Ladybird Wildflower Garden. They are having an open house.
My husband and I trekked down to Blanco, which is about 75 miles away. It was Lavender Festival weekend. There were lectures, tents with all kinds of crafts and Lavender products and Farm Tours of the nearby Lavender Farms. A fun time was had by all in 100 degree heat. That was the down side. The farm tours were great. Rows upon rows of lavender. The products were great too. Lavender Linen spray, soaps, body wash, and even culinary lavender, which my husband had to have. Six hours of heat was about all I could take. However, it was fun.
This new job has my brain in a whirl. My brain is tired. Too much number crunching. I wanted something different. I got it.
Well I am getting used to my new temp job. I am a Financial Analyst I. I audit things. Having never audited things before, it is taking a while to get into the groove. I finally think I am getting the idea. It is fun and different from any other job I have had before. I am just really happy to be working.
Congrats! read more
