Things are going pretty good.
Kind of an odd situation. I oriented three days on the floor at the new job. Wed, Thur and Sat. Then had formal orientation yesterday and today. Bit backward for normal orientation but that's okay.
One more day of orientation and I have my own shift starting Friday.
Got to do a video chat with daughter this past Sunday. She says she is enjoying doing home schooling. Got to go see the local zoo.
I am kind of worried about her. She's been moved around from one place to another too much. It's affecting her. Every time she makes friends, she's moving again. I think that's a big reason she is okay doing home schooling and then going back to school next year, for her first year of high school. She figures by then it will be more concrete that they are going to stay there. Until that is decided, I have the feeling she is going to avoid making friends. Can't blame her.
I'm in much the same emotional place. Going to avoid making close friendships until I know if I will be moving to AL. Just mostly work, renovate the house and maybe go to karaoke and the gym once in a while.
I am going to do a really good job fixing up the house. Not the exact same way I was going to. But I will incorporate some versions of things I was going to do to begin with. Build a waterfall in the back yard, probably a smaller one in the front. That will help increase the property value. So will a lot of the work I've done in the yard. Shelves I've installed. Rewiring. The irrigation well. Exterior electrical outlets. Fruit trees.
Just sad that it looks like daughter and I will not be picking the fruit ourselves. Or sitting by the fountain. That's okay. I will try and buy a house in AL, plant new fruit trees and build a fountain or two there. New garden, new flowers. Maybe she will have a child someday and I can sit by the fountain and pick fruit with both of them. Or she will stay with me for a while during college or something. Worth hoping for.
