New Job and 1st Diet Coke but wait and read....

Ok lets just get to me having my first caffeine drink. I was sitting at home last night on Halloween and handing out candy and eating pizza and wanted a pop so bad so I decided to open a diet coke in the fridge. It was so bad tasting it was like drinking banking soda. The flavor was not like what I remembered. I only took 2 sips when I dumped it out. I went to having a glass of water for the night. I heard that once you stop drinking it for a long period of time then you loose the taste of it. Won't be doing that again.

Alright on a Great Note: I got a new job out of town. I went for my interview on a Thursday and they called me on Monday to offer me a position. Great health benefits and good pay. I have to drive 50 miles to Pendelton but I think it will be great. My first day was Friday and it was a little over-whelming. Oh whats the job? I will run the Vocational Department for this company. I have not a whole lot of experience in this part of the DD field. I looked at it as if God said you need this education and when you accomplish it you will have both Voc and Residential under your belt. I have a big office and 8 staff and 40 clients. It will be a challenge for me. My supervisor has only been there a month and knows nothing about Vocational so I will be learning it and teaching her. I need this challenge.

Christmas Music? When I sat down to write this blog I turned on the soft music on satellite and it is playing Christmas music. I just got done with Halloween now this. No worries I love Christmas music.

Halloween and Driving Drunk: As for Halloween I just love handing candy out to kids so opt out to stay home and do it this year at my home instead of going to the many parties I was invited to. I did send out a text to all my ex-staff and friends not to drink and drive that if they need a ride to call me and I will take them where ever they need to go. At 2:30 in the morning I got 3 phone calls and up out of bed I went to go take them home. I look at it as I must have saved someones life with them not getting behind the wheel of the car and driving drunk. They just were so thankful for the ride, I was just thankful I could be a help to them.

Well I hope all is well with your families and just love reading your blogs keep them commin!
