Update

Well, I thought I would update everyone on my new job. Last week I filled out papers and picked out and office. I don't officially start until Sept the 4th right after labor day. The beginning should just be about getting myself settled in and figuring out what cases will be mine. My supervisor is in desperate need of my help so she said she is more or less going to throw me in with the dogs. HA! It seems they have lost two employees to another department and to maternity leave. The supervisor has been taking on cases she hasn't done in five years. So, there won't be a lot of training. It will mainly be a lot of hands on training for me.

On September the 17th the company will be sending me to Virginia Beach for Foster Care new worker training with Oasis at VA Beach State Field Office. I am taking the kids with me along with my ex-mother in law, Becky, to watch the kids while I am in class. I figured I would take this opportunity to use the time as a vacation for the kids. I feel guilty about taking them out of school because I am a real stickler about "Perfect Attendance" but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. Leon works night shift so it would be hard for me to leave and have tamra taken care of. Taylor could go and stay with my mom and she could take him to school but Tamra is another story. So, I asked the kids what they wanted to do and they chose the beach. HA! Imagine that! Hopefully they will have a good time.

Well, that is it for now. Wish me luck! I am currently feeling very sick and am hoping and praying I am over this by the time I start work. It started with a sore throat/stopped up nose and now it has become more about nausea! I can't make it go away and I just feel horrible! It makes me feel like I need to eat. Once I eat the nausea goes away but comes right back when I stop. I have changed to just drinking water everytime I feel sick. It helps for that one second! UGH!!!
