New Home, New Job, New Life

Well, my wish came true (for once!). We made it to Orlando by the beginning of November. B was able to transfer within the company we worked for, but I've been unemployed until now. Tomorrow I start training at my new job! It's not Disney, sadly. Someday ::sigh::

I'm a sales counselor for Universal Studios. I will be helping people who call in with questions about tickets, rides, hotels, etc. I'm excited. I don't have a uniform for the first time ever! It's business casual, so yay. I've spent the last couple days getting together all my work appropriate clothes and doing laundry. It's only part time, but that's really all I wanted right now anyway. B is looking for either a second job or a full time overnight position somewhere because he only gets about 30 hours a week where he is now, and that just isn't enough. He likes working overnight, and when you work 3rd shift you're guaranteed your hours. No going home early because it's slow, no getting asked not to come in because occupancy is low. Plus, as a bellman he would make tips. He's really good at making tips.

I love where we're living. We're about 15 miles outside Orlando in the town B grew up in, living in a house that his dad owns. We don't have to pay any rent, we just have to cover the water and power bills. It's a 3/2 with lots of space for all our kitties and our new doggy.

I'm happy with everything right now, and I'd go through it all again to get here.
