I've got some meals portioned out in containers and sandwich makings to put together and my laundry has been washed and put away... I've done everything I can to be ready. I feel like my new coworkers like me and the people I'm training with are all nice. I'm really damn lucky to have this job- and to be doing training now and not in a month in a half when summer intensive courses start up!- and still be able to visit Oregon next month. I'm doing well. I wish I could hit a pause button and freeze how I'm feeling for a little longer, just sit and breathe with it.
I feel like this post doesn't really have a conclusion... I will end by sharing the quote on my "Welcome Rachel!" sign my coworkers made for me: The only thing you absolutely have to know, is the location of the library- Albert Einstein.
