Well, it's been a month at my new office. Time sure flies by. I have learned that I always hate the first two weeks of any new job, regardless of what it is; and it still holds true here. The first week was okay, and I hated the second week, but it has been good since then . It isn't fun being a PTF again..... but life goes on and I won't be a PTF forever. I do have to learn the city scheme here.... Bleh. I hate learning schemes. it isn't any easier the second time around.
My daughter is getting big, and we will find out what the gender of baby #2 in a few weeks. My wife is happier here. Life is still a challenge but with a happier wife, life is better than it was.
Happy Memorial day. I found out recently that my 78 year old grandfather has prostate cancer. He thinks he has less than one year to live. He's in pretty good spirits though. He has a pHd in agriculture, so he looks at everything from a scientific point of view. He's very matter of fact about the whole situation. He and his wife have accepted it and are just trying to enjoy the remaining time. It is sad for me... my other grandfather died from prostate cancer. It was really hard to watch him deteriorate, it will be hard to watch it again.
Till next time,
Jared


You're right Jared, I think ANY new job is hard to deal with in the beginning. Learning a scheme in a city that you have just moved to is more difficult because it is a new city to you and you cannot learn by what neighborhood the street is in.
MarkI have never had a wife, but from my experience, if your woman isn't happy - ain't no one gonna be happy.
I am sorry to hear about your grandfather - it is hard to watch someone your love slowly deteriorate.
