  Stress-less proposal day turned into stress-full weekend. I majorly screwed up on the FedEx delivery, and we could have lost the job because of it. But, they did in fact receive the electronic version Friday, before the deadline, and that was acceptable to the potential client. BIG RELIEF. It was on my mind all weekend, and I thought my job might be on the line. As much as I bitch about my situation, I am really not ready to start a job hunt for real, especially with school right around the corner. There's just too much going on right now. Dave is settling into his new job, and it's awesome to see him come home in a good mood. Almost unreal. Soon, we'll be in the new house. I'm a little stressed about the actual move, and dealing with the roommate issues, but once we're in the house all will be good. I've been mentally decorating already.... Weekend was okay. Relaxing, mostly - lots of much-needed sleep. We nixed the camping trip because of the forecast for New Hampshire , and I got screwed by the reservation company.
I paid $70 to reserve two sites, and got a grand refund of.....$7. I was LIVID. I almost would have preferred sitting in a wet tent all weekend. Saturday was the FedEx fiasco, but Dave did a wonderful job of taking my mind off it with my favorite urlLink Homestarrunner cartoons. (Just the claps! ) Today, uneventful thus far. Sorted out the proposal madness, so all is good, but now I’m trying to be the Star Employee of the Week.
Which is really hard to do, when I'm really feeling more and more discontent. I don't understand why it's so bloody hard to find a job doing something you love to do. Almost everyone I know is on a totally different path than they set out on, a path they really wanted. I'm thrilled for Dave, he's finally doing the programming that he's been doing for fun anyway! I guess I'll have to be patient until I have my History degree and can teach.
Right now, it feels so very far away.... But enough whinging. That's all I've been doing lately, when I'm actually incredibly grateful for the good fortune in my life at the moment. I almost don't trust it, I feel like something bad is just lurking around the corner. But maybe not. Maybe we should all just enjoy the present. Because you know what? Nothing matters when we're dancing.....
