First month thoughts...

So it has been a month at the new job and here have been some of the thoughts running through my mind.......

- I can't stop smiling.
- I enjoy (mostly) helping the kids with homework at night. One particular night I remember listening to Lilah read, and I was completely thrilled with it. I couldn't help but be thankful for the opportunity to really be present with her. My mind wasn't full of work that I was trying to rush through the evening to do's.
- I am the complete opposite to most people in my group. When you think of a tax accountant, I wouldn't guess my picture is there. Most of the people are highly introverted in my group. Let's just say I am shaking this department up!
- I am thrilled at the thought of being able to completely support Tim as a coach's wife. He sent me an email one week and said next week is going to be extremely busy with basketball. I didn't sigh thinking oh crap what are we going to do. I actually responded, "let me know how I can support you".
- It feels great thinking about something other than work!!!!
- Driving down town stopped being so bad by about week three. I started to find beauty in the sunrises and architecture.
- This place has zero idea what stress is.... People say they are stressed and they are still leaving at 4:30.
-

I know all the new will wear off. As I get more and more plugged into the work processes, stress will come. But I sure am enjoying the honeymoon!
