Y3 D28
Worked from home yesterday. First time doing so at the new company. I had an appointment at 8:30 and if I tried to take the train afterwards, I would have missed at least one if not two meetings. Right now I am in the middle of requirements gathering with a client and most of the day was spent on the phone with her. Add to that a training session and it wasn't a big deal that I worked remotely. The day did manage to speed by somehow though. It seemed like I was getting up and next thing I know it's 5pm. I kind of like that. I did also manage to get laundry done. Holy crap the kid has massive laundry. I ended up doing three loads yesterday because of her. I did do towels and all mine, but still she added a whole extra load. Damn good thing she got a job. Speaking of that she went yesterday and filled out her paperwork. She is officially employed and starts on the 30th. I am very proud of her. She has to go to a Safeway orientation and a union orientation, but whatever. It's a job, she got it on her own, and she is handling it. Very impressed. Point being, she will get paid weekly and even with the union deductions she will get about $175 a week after taxes. For her this will be great. I plan to have her give me $50 a week towards household stuff, like laundry and gas, but I will probably put half of it away in savings. A hundred extra a month will be great for me and that will still give her a hundred a month going into savings she doesn't know about. Winning. Made a nice spinach salad and grilled cheese for dinner. After dinner we went over to my director's house just to hang out. About 8 of us total just hanging out and shooting the shit. Nice to be amongst friends. Got home around 11 and off to bed. I took an early train this morning which I will NOT do again. More on that tomorrow.
