Jak and Matilda, My W will be joining a group from the dance community to participate in a dance convention in Chicago this weekend. I went two years ago, and find it too overwhelming for my style.
She has accepted a part-time position working in the business community. She will make probably 4X as much as she was making at her last job. My guess is her days in social services are gone. In order to have the lifestyle that she wants, she has to work in a different field.
I think the mix of her cooking job and a PT job will be a good fit for her. She has a hard time setting boundaries with fulltime jobs and often ends up working six days a week.
This job is a different direction for her. She has a background in accounting and social services. Her personality doesn't fit accounting. Her material interests don't fit social services. I think it's a step in the right direction.
I'm going to go to a travel agent this weekend and get some material on Puerto Rico. She told me that she's been angry with me because we didn't take a vacation while she was off. I told her I would be available to take a week off beginning in April.
I bought her a bouquet of flowers for Valentine's Day. There was no card.
