Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Through shadows to the edge of night
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, Beneath the roof there is a bed; But not yet weary are our feet, Still round the corner we may meet A sudden tree or standing stone That none have seen but we alone. Tree and flower and leaf and grass, Let them pass! Let them pass! Hill and water under sky, Pass them by! Pass them by! |
|
|
Still round the corner there may wait A new road or a secret gate, And though we pass them by today, Tomorrow we may come this way And take the hidden paths that run Towards the Moon or to the Sun. Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe, Let them go! Let them go! Sand and stone and pool and dell, Fare you well! Fare you well! |
|
Home is behind, the world ahead, And there are many paths to tread Through shadows to the edge of night, Until the stars are all alight. Then world behind and home ahead, Well wander back to home and bed. Mist and twilight, cloud and shade, Away shall fade! Away shall fade! Fire and lamp, and meat and bread, And then to bed! And then to bed! |

Remember that job possibility I mentioned?
....I was pulled into the HR Manager's office this morning and told that the company president is very excited about the idea of me working remotely. I should expect a meeting with him soon regarding the details. I don't want to get my hopes up TOO high, but it's really starting to look like it will happen!
Prayers appreciated. :-D

Thanks so much! I'm trying not to act ~too~ happy or folks'll get suspicious. ;-)

Ruthy ...
So does this mean you'll be working remotely when you get to WA? Or while you're still in FL?
To: Rose in RoseBear
....In WA. They'd let me do ~exactly~ what I'm doing now, retaining my same client base - but processing from my home in WA. :-)

Does this change the move timetable at all, or are you planning to go once school is out, or what?

I'm blind in my left eye so I kinda sympathize with him. There's been some discussion of removing the eye if it becomes unhealthy or he injures it... He doesn't have a blink reflex in that eye if he bumps into something, but so far it doesn't seem to cause him any problems. :~D

More from the multi-act saga that is my life ...
So this morning I went in to theoldjob and personally thanked the lady who hired me (and got her to sign my time sheet). I went to theoldcontractor and thanked them in person (and turned in my time sheet).
I took the phone interview with the lady who called me Friday afternoon. I think it went well; she promised me she'd call me back tomorrow by noon and let me know one way or another.
An hour later, I was sitting here FReeping when the phone rings. It's a State agency, a division of the State Health Department that works with the physically challenged. They wanted to know if I was still interested in a desktop support job I'd applied for a couple of weeks ago. I'm interviewing with them tomorrow at 11am.
The rain is fine so far ...!

It won't unless it is injured or an infection sets in.

Dang, girlfriend! That's the way to work it!
And completely transparent to the customer! And much better for the customer, since you don't have to stress about traffic and daycare and long hours away from home!
Just make sure they don't take advantage of your being at home to pile on more clients ... you'll be working through the night if you don't watch it.
