I have arrived in Ohio. And apparently, I brought the fall with me. I have been here for about a week and a half now. I am settling in, finding my way about and trying to find a job.
For a while at least, I'll have a part time job with Jenny's sister-in-law babysitting 3 days a week for her 3 year old, Santi and her 1 month old Ayden. So that's a bit of a relief. And while I haven't had much experience with infants to date, there's always a first time.
I have put in 2 applications and at this point haven't heard back from either one. And Jenny is very pessimistic about my hearing back, which makes it hard for me to not be pessimistic. I know that my previous employers will give me good references, I'm not worried about that. I just don't know what my competition is, since I'm in a larger demographic now.
I went in to see an Oral Surgeon today about getting my broken wisdom tooth pulled. I have the surgery set up for Wednesday at 11am. This is the first kind of surgery I have ever had and I'll be under anesthetic so I'm a little nervous, though I know I'll be just fine. I've stocked up on jello and pudding. Now I just need to get some popsicles & Ice cream and I'll be good to go.
Other than that, I'm starting to look forward to November already. It'll be Nanowrimo, and I'm getting excited for this years book. Its going to be for Carissa, Nick & Andrew...sort of in the line of Lewis Carroll writing Alice in Wonderland for a young girl named Alice. I'm hoping to have a lot of fun with it!
Anyhow, that's my life right now. Please keep me in your prayers about my tooth surgery and about finding a more full time job. And thank Jenny's In-Laws for helping me to get the tooth taken care of! Well, it's late and I should head to bed.
Good night all... As I've recited to myself several times lately:
"The time has come, the Walrus Said, to talk of many things. Of shoes and ships and ceiling wax, of cabbages and kings. And why the sea is boiling hot, and whether pigs have wings...."
