Fay, considering I just skipped almost 200 posts, so I feel ya! Don't worry about not latching onto all the details. Yup, it's a permanent move rather than a visit.
Lots of ppl here need hugs, tea and sympathy.
Yet, here is me, going on with the memememe news.
Was out and about today, driving around Faribault by myself for the first time. I only got lost twice. The line of work I planned to apply for here prefers a valid Minnesota drivers' license. So before taking my completed application to the office a few blocks away, I drove to the other side of town to trade in my AZ license. No go. Minnesota state government is having a budget-related shut-down. So the examiners who administer the written test are not working.
Figured I'd go put in my application anyway. Walked up to the desk, said, "Hi, I just moved her from Arizona, and I have six years' experience working with Developmentally Disabled adults. Here's my application, which you so kindly mailed to me a few weeks ago in anticipation of my move."
Personnel person said, "When can you start?"
"Tomorrow."
Personnel person had astonished look on her face.
"Well, if you really need me, I could start today."
Personnel person became gleeful. And offered me my choice of shifts. Then asked if I had time in my schedule tomorrow to do pre-employment paperwork. I said my schedule tomorrow involved unpacking, playing with cats, and napping. "If you can fit us in, that would be good." So I smiled, and pulled out my calendar, and pencilled them in.
