Chrissy time

We all made an effort to wear red or green to church last night :-) lol My red top I scored for $3 from an op-shop yesterday!

Making progress

Got my TEFL certificate in the mail today - woooo hooo, I passed! What a miracle. 

Work meeting went well today - it wasn't as overwhelming as i was expecting. In fact, I actually quite enjoyed it. I didn't feel stressed at all and the meeting members were really friendly to me :-) One of the members, Joyce, came and said congratulations to me for getting the job. That was sweet of her. Another member, Mary, chatted to me about her brother who went to teach English in Japan and there met his wife. Her brother is blonde and they now have two teenaged Eurasian kids! Amazing. I also talked to Ross who worked with my former boss at DTF and also thought highly of him. He told me Col was now in the Office of the Auditor General. They all seemed nicer to me than previous Committee members I have interacted with.

New season

Gosh, I prayed so hard for a job and prepared so well, then God granted me my desire and got me a great job, but suddenly now i am so unbelievably busy. I get up early, go to the train station, pray, then catch the train, then work my guts out, then leave, catch the train to my car, then pray, then go home, have a shower, make lunch for the next day and then go to bed! What a life. Oh my goodness, i didn't quite anticipate being so busy that I would have no time to think about anything else. Lol

BUT I love it - my boss, Brooke, is lovely and the lady swapping jobs with her is also very easy to get along with. Other than that, I don't really deal with anyone else much yet anyway.
