a week of firsts has been full indeed.busy, yet very content feeling.
right feeling.
one would even say happy feeling.
xavi started school this week and i am a proud mama. he has been loving the responsibility of something that is just for him. he has gotten certified to use the phone and the vacuum so far and in the world of a five year old this is a big deal.
another big deal, your own lunchbox.
i started my new job and after a week of meetings, w2's, alarm clocks, drug tests, work clothes, orientations, clients, and note taking, i am still super psyched about this new sense of purpose i have. yes, i am a little tired, but not really. i like having a packed day of helping women in my community build better lives for themselves and then i get to come home to my adorable children and love them to pieces.
so, i guess what i am trying to say is,
i heart my new job.
and a post of firsts should not forget to include that happy ol' inauguration day. my eyes were so leaky all day long. someone on the radio would only have to quietly mention the word hope and i was driving down the freeway bawling.
but the good kind.

where do you work? what do you do? that is way exciting. alarm clocks? what are those? i have comfortably forgotten their wretched name. oh wait, my alarm clock is named avery.
i got a job as support staff for a residential treatment facility women and their children.
about alarm clocks, we don't really have one either. someone poured juice on ours a few years ago and i was happy to get rid of it. i've been using chris' phone but i suppose it's time to get a real one. *sigh*
