I found the perfect job! Not exactly customer service, even better: Member Services, for a great organization, close to downtown, beautiful building, great benefits, and the job sounds really interesting. Plus great starting pay too. And normal office hours. Although in order to be there before 8:30, I will probably have to get up around 6 am. Me the totally not early bird. But hey, it's worth it.
All went well during the screening, and follow-up interviews and meetings. And a decision was made very quickly, less that 3 days after the first meeting. So I am thrilled about all this. But, it will feel a little bit strange to get back into a work routine, as I have been off since mid-July because of the move. Now I need new clothes, hehe, new shoes, new lots-of-stuff... One paycheck at a time.
Reunited with my friend from high-school a couple of weeks ago. I was a little bit leary at first, not having seen her for so many years. But she seems delighted to reconnect, and I am quite happy as well. It's kinda nice to have a friend around here. Husbands are good, but still... a friend is good too. We have been getting together for coffee a couple of times, and went for a long walk last week as it was so beautiful out. She also invited us to a maroccan restaurant where we enjoyed delicious food and good company. This was also the first time she and Ous got together since we arrived here, and everyone got along more than fine.
Our routine otherwise is fairly quiet. When week-ends provide us with beautiful weather, we go exploring. Went to Wakefield last Saturday, and really enjoyed the quaint town. Also went for a walk at "La Ferme expérimentale", unfortunately forgot my camera both times. Can't believe the weather is still so nice here, usually by this time of year, we are under a lot of snow in Manitoba. So I am enjoying this a lot.
