woohoo, i'm alive! sorry my friends for my non updating mood so far this month of june. things remain fabulous for us :)
work is good, no actually work is great. but i'm a little freaked. and here's why, the new boss (who turns out to not be a bad guy) really likes me and is totally helping/pushing/preparing me for a promotion to management. about three weeks ago i sat down with him and laid out my desire to become a manager and he responded so quick. i told him i wanted to work other shifts since i'm only really confidant on the midday shift/crew and viola, the next week he scheduled me for the frozen shift (5pm to 1am.) and starting wednesday my schedule is insane! i'll be working the morning management shift starting at 4am and ending at 2pm. yup, that's right, 10 hour days for five days. oh and yes, that really is a FOUR AM start! god help me! thankfully it takes me 5 minutes to bike to work. the big boss told me he wants to accelerate my learning curve by doing this 4am shift and also to test me to see if i can handle two weeks at 50 hours. while i'm super excited to have the extra hours on my paycheck (i'm going to get a new perscription and new glasses yay!) i'm a little worried about all the time i'll be at work! here's the freaking out bit...i'm worried that if i take the promotion i'll miss spending time with greg and that working all the time will change the dynamic of our relationship. i realize i'm probably overreacting or thinking too much but it scares me! i don't want to mess anything up with greg. i don't want work to ever come before my marriage. i don't want to end up feeling resentful towards greg and his 30 hour work week. argh sigh smile. and i also don't want to miss fun times because i have to be at work or because i have to work early. is this what being an adult means? sacrificing fun? your life? i'm sure i'm overreacting and i am happy that i'm getting a test run these next two weeks to see if i can hack it. okay enough about work! it helps me to get this stuff that's floating around my brain out and in writing. thanks for listening! oh and greg is totally supportive of whatever i decide. he thinks i can do the 50 hour work week no problem and has total faith in me. man, i sure love him. he's the most supportive person.
