new wardrobe

The new job..... is at a funeral home!   Like I said.... entirely new for me.   It's been two weeks of part time work and I am very hopeful.   I come home at the end of the day feeling h a p p y!  I am learning a lot and I hope that I'll be able to settle in as time progresses.   The folks there have been super patient with me, and I am so thankful for their willingness to show me the ropes.   I'm not too sure of my schedule.... so I often joke about whether the boss will ask me to return for another day.    I'm set to show-up two more days this week, so I consider that a good sign.  

This is a HUGE change in pace for me and I'm slowly adjusting to the new surroundings. 
I was telling a friend that I still feel like a person at the end of the day..... not a tired, grouchy minion.    Since I'm not covered in sweat and milkshake splatter at the end of a shift, I'm able to run errands or do things after work.   Dressing in normal clothes is a welcome change, although a bit stressful as I piece together a wardrobe that will pass as funeral attire. 
All in all, I'm feeling like a productive person again! I'm excited to learn, to contribute, and to become a part of a new team.
