Newness

New job. New house. New fella. New friends. New year.
Here will be an update of the last two months as if I could fit it all into a small space such as this. I will do my best.
New job: I was recently offered a job with a local bank. I am so excited to accept. The hours will be, well, "bankers hours". It's wonderful. I will have all holidays off with pay, 2 weeks a year paid vacation, benifits that will start immediatly, and regular pay raises. It's a perfect job. I start the 16th of January.
New house: I can't remember if I'd moved into my new appartment yet when I'd blogged last, but I found a cute little two bedroon appartment in a good part of town, very quiet, very clean. I am all excited about it. The rent was a little higher than I was hoping to spend, but I think I may be able to pull it off. My landlord is really nice, and I only share one wall with the other tennat. It's very good.
New fella: Well it is the one from the train, his name is Andrew, and I think we have fallen in love with each other. Funny how I really had given up hope of that. He is so compassionate, and incredibly funny, very smart, terribly good looking, great with the kids, and he makes me happy. Very exciting, and sort of strange. He really treats me good and appreciates me and I guess I'm not really used to that. It's definately a good feeling.
New friends: I've met people at my job at Rite Aid, and gone out with a few of them. Sarah and I have gotten to be pretty good friends. She has two boys spaced about the same apart as Simon and Tabitha and the kids enjoy playing together. I've only been there a couple of months and already have some good friends.
New Year: A few obsticles yet to hurdle, but I will take them as they come. With christmas, and moving-in expenses, I am slightly frightened as far as money is concerned. But I do have a new job and things are starting to look up. I know I will be alright. I does get a little scary sometimes, with all this newness......
