Oh, the times they are a'changin'

Well for those of you who've wondered where my blog presence has been for the last several weeks, here is your answer:

new year, new legal class, and new job.

That's right folks, I've begun a new, and difficult class in my studies this month and YES I've started working in a new job. Not just any job though, a real job - a great opportunity - a fountain of blessing. I am now the office manager, paralegal, and legal assistant to Paul Hammack, at the one and only, Hammack Law Firm, P.A.. Needless to say, my evenings are full with my studies, and my days are full with work. And my sleep is full of restlessness as a result of both. Don't get me wrong. I absolutely LOVE my new job. I have a fantastic boss. In fact, I'd say, he's as good as they come. :) But, being a paralegal and office manager in a brand new law firm is hard work, especially when you have no former experience. (like me.) I love being busy with real work. Luckily, I only have 3 months or so left of my schooling, so after that I'll have more time to breathe in the evenings. (and hopefully more blogging too.)

In the meantime, I find my peace in simple things, like nice, old fashioned wooden desks. ahhh the beauty of it. It feels so solid, smells so earthy, and looks so distinguished. I now have a big wooden desk in my own space at work. (at the moment.) It makes me feel important, needed, and kind of, well, smart. I haven't felt that way with regards to my job in a while. Moooooovin' on up! Its weird to say, but check it out, "I'm a PARALEGAL now!" :) :)

I'll post more soon when my life evens out a bit. For now, I'm off to KY to visit my best friend for the weekend and a little brain detox after a slightly overwhelming first week.
