NOVEMBER STRESS

                        
                         Not  for me, stress I mean. But for specific  persons like Brian and Gina, both found a new job, and both started on the 28th of November. My observation was that they were both excited about their new jobs, but also nervous and stressed out about the new beginning. Three weeks have passed since then and I am happy  to inform you, they both love their new jobs and they both believe they made the right decision to start a new chapter in their work environment. It takes guts to do that, so congratulation to both of you.

                         As for me and Donna we had a great November. We celebrated birthdays for Luke, Jacob and Gina and had Thanksgiving at our house and Thanksgiving dinner at Karla and Eric's.
                          On the down side we had to babysit 4 dogs at the same time for a weekend. Don't take me wrong, we love dogs, but this was like a professional kennel. There was a lot of dog walking and cleaning involved. I definitely was glad when it was over.
