First Days & Happy Smiles

Today was my first day on the new job. This morning when I crawled out of bed at 5:30a.m. I really wondered "Wow, how am I going to make it through the day?!?" I was pretty nervous. I find first days on a new job to be like the first days of school. You plan an outfit. You never know who you're going to see and your not 100% sure what you're going to be doing. 

Once I got to work and was about half way through the day I knew it was going to be good. Tomorrow will be different today because we're doing different things. I actually smiled and enjoyed my work. I think I'm really going to love this job. Oh, someone asked me what type of job was it. It's a government job. I work for the Department of Homeland Security. 
Remember the awesome hotel I talked about staying in. Here's a picture of what the inside looks like.... It opens up into this huge atrium. I'll take more pictures later. 
      


Easter was really good! I got a great Easter basket from my mother that included an iflip. I was very excited. Being a fat kid at heart...I ate way too much ham lol. 
Hope you're all well!

Yeah for you and the new job!!! So exciting! I worked for DHS for awhile and LOVED it!! Would love to hear what directorate you're working in and swap stories of being blonde govt employees - if you don't mind sharing (you can email me at tatruesdell@gmail.com if you don't want to blog it!)
