After 2 days of extreme pressure at work, with the owner ML coming at me with all sorts of things that needed to be done, she tells me that we need to talk. After 7 years in Hell my paranoia runs deep and I immediatly wondered what I did wrong. She ended up just wanting to talk to me one on one to tell me that, "You are doing a stellar job and I couldn't be happier with my choice to hire you." She said that she knew I had trouble reading her and she just wanted me to know she appreciated me. It was the nicest thing a boss has ever said to me. She later told me that after the snarky comments a vendor had said to me they then turned around and told her a bunch of nice things about me.
Tonight I have to bust a move to get things loaded into the motorhome for a weekend trip to Lake Success with our next door neighbors. We are leaving after work on Friday. These are really neat people and are a lot of fun to be around. The funny part is that they really want us to go. They have kids our age, but treat us as equals. Once again, Nick will be the token child. We are also taking The Boat. It will be the first time in over a year that it has been out of the garage. I can't believe how excited I am to be going camping.
