Invasion of the Man Cave

Whenever I'm gone from the blog you can bet your sweet bippy that something monumental (such a relative term) is going on. Well it's a new day.  Stress is moving on out. 

Stressing because the job market was so tough, I gave up my house and Camille and I moved into The Man Cave this week. I gave notice to my landlord and helped her find new renters. Packed up my life yet-once-again- and prepared for another move. And then, voila. I found an amazing job that I will begin on July 5th. More on that in another post.  As a peek, here are a couple photos taken from where I'll be working:

 

 

This was the job I really wanted through the agency, a complicated situation that took some time to manifest. So actually, maybe I should have trusted that the Universe had some finagaling to do to line things up in perfect order for the outcome I really wanted. 

And right now here I sit, in my sunny room that smells of lavender, amidst a lot of muskiness, at the doorway of a holiday weekend. I have to say, to hear both of my sons welcoming me into their home was beyond joyful to my mama heart. Name that Musk?  My housemates?  Zak, Alex(my sons), Mike (my pseudo-husband), Beachball (the dog) and Canoe (the cat).  They all have testicles.  They all do love me but this will be temporary.  I should have planned on this soft landing when I left Chicago. But I love my autonomy and I just never imagined that I wouldn't have a job within a week or two.  That's never happened to me in my life.   

May I introduce The Man Cave as seen through my camera lense.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Home....Home.  Yes, the Sweet is missing. Wait.  Camille and I are the Sweet. 

Home Sweet Home.

I knew something must have been up since we had not heard from you for a while and I knew that had a job materialized you would have let us all know.

While driving today I heard some song lyrics that made me think of you and how you might be feeling. (This was all before I read your blog post.) "But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining. Just keep holding on." So, you held on and things will be good.
