Congratulations!

Yesterday was a great day! I had been waiting for June 14, 2008 for a long time. OK...not really for June 14, but for Miranda to get married. What a HUGE blessing it was for me to be able to be in the sealing room to see two of my favorite people marry each other. I think the day went well and I truly believe that Miranda and Kris will be happy with each other for eternity.

Miranda and I have been friends for a long time. I have never felt closer to anyone outside my family (other than Dave of course) than I do with Miranda. We have been through the ups, downs and all arounds with each other. I am so happy that I was able to be a part of one of the happiest days of her life.


Kris and I had a rocky start...ok...it was really just me. But once I got to know him I realized I was being dumb and forgave him. I am so glad that we can be friends! (Sorry Kris, but you're stuck with me forever too!) :o)

Congratulations you two! I love you both and couldn't be more pleased with your choice of eternal companion! Thank you for letting me be a part of your special day!!

Complicated

I tried to make things easier on myself by transferring closer to home. It was going to be less stress; I already knew where everything was, and the people I would work with. Then...3 weeks later I find out they are transferring me to another bank. True, I am doing the same job, it is equal distance and I do know a lot of the people. Except now I have to learn where everything is and how everyone works, etc. plus get to know a whole new (really only 1/2 new) customer base. Thankfully I catch on quickly, but I guess I just wasn't expecting it at all. It kinda threw me off my game. And then Audit shows up a day later and I get horribly sick a day after that...it has been a rocky start. This transfer is not a bad thing...it's a pretty lateral transfer. I was pretty comfy at my bank, but I think it will be good at this new branch. I have a lot more opportunity to grow and move up within the bank at this branch. I look forward to learning a lot of new things and getting to be more familiar with how different things work. So much for making my life more simple. I'm sure in a couple months I'll be in good shape and have a good reputation with the customers.
