Sunday prep for Monday morning

Tomorrow I head off to begin my new job. I’m alternating between really excited about the new opportunity and shaking in my boots from fear and anxiety. The whole ‘what if I don’t measure up to expectations’ bingo that plays in the head on occassion. I’m sure I’ll get over it after I survive the first day. After all, I’m good at what I do. I have knowledge, skills, and experience to fall back on.

I still haven’t managed to reset my sleep cycle so I’ve set every alarm clock in my house to 6:30am so I don’t sleep in. I’m so excited about the new job that I’m afraid I won’t be able to get sleep. Big Momma R has volunteered to give me a wake-up call at 7:00am to ensure my butt’s in gear. Have to be on the LRT platform for 7:30am to get to work on time.

I’ve already made my lunch – roast beast on rye, carrot and celery strings, plum, and tomato juice – but am still waffling over what I’m going to wear. At some point during the day I’ll need to hike about 10-15 blocks to visit the benefits and payroll office so whatever I choose needs to go well with comfortable shoes!

Time to do some homework and then I’ll spend more time trying to determine what to wear. See what an exciting life I lead?

  1. I’m excited for you!!

    If P&B is where you interviewed, take the train.

  2. Yeah, it is. I figured I’d likely end up taking the train depending on when lunch is. My appt. is at 1pm. Hopefully this is OK with the new boss since I couldn’t schedule it before my first day at work.

  3. It’s work related so I would expect you to do that on work time. You need to get all that stuff out of the way early on.

  4. Can’t wait to hear how the first day went.

  5. Congratulations to you!!!!

  6. A new job is always exciting. For me, the stress gets to me a bit much so it isn’t always a good exciting. Glad I don’t have to get a new job soon.
