I feel like I'm always out of the loop now, and I've only been gone a week. haha.

So I started my new job this week, and it's completely kicking my arss. Monday I came home and just cried while I walked around the house doing chores and watching Jackson play. It was so overwhelming. I have to remember that I haven't had to do anything that needs a brain for about 5 years. It takes some getting used to.

Today was by far the best day of the week. I really felt like I stayed on top of things, but I also didn't have to deal with my boss all day, so that might have been why. He likes to say things in passing and normally mumbles. Makes it worse when I'm not really sure what I'm doing just yet.

For the most part, I do land court collections and corporation work. Not really my forte, but it's mostly form work, so not too terrible. There will be more interesting things coming, I'm sure. For now, I'll enjoy the quiet.

I'm super ecstatic to see all the babies soon. I keep checking in at night to hopefully see an update. I don't even get on FB during the day since I have an old school phone that only gets wireless. Cheapo right here.

Happy weekend ladies. I'll have a long one thanks to a random MA holiday. Definitely needed after this total change to my schedule.

Re: howdy

  • Aw, hang in there! I know it'll get better. That initial period of confusion and not really knowing what you're doing sucks - I know the first 8 or so weeks of the school year always kick my butt and bum me out because I don't have a handle on what I'm doing with my classes.

  • I always have a hard time starting hew jobs - trying to figure out the systems, processes and people.  But you'll be in the swing of things in no time. 

    We miss you around here too!  Enjoy your long weekend!

  • Hang in there hopefully things will get better.

    When I changed jobs I went home crying every day for nearly a month. I hated it and felt like I was stupid. It was simply because I had been at my previous job for over 5 years so I knew it like the back of my hand. Having to learn so much in a short period of time after being so comfortable at my old job was overwhelming. Thankfully it got better and now I feel like If i Have to change jobs when we move i am going to go crazy.
