What a weekend. I went to my hometown Amarillo, Texas with my parents this last weekend. The circumstances of the visit were not very good, but somehow the weekend turned out very well.
It started on Thursday with a trip to Pittsburg, Kansas with Erin so I could meet up with my parents. While there, Erin had to get her tags renewed so we did that and hung out for a bit. When my parents got there, we (Mom, Dad, Erin’s parents and I) ate dinner at the Mall Deli in Pittsburg. Then we (my parents and I) left for Amarillo. We arrived at 3:30 AM on Friday.
Friday, after we woke up, we went to my Aunt’s house and dropped Mom off. Her sister is now with home hospice so she wanted to visit and be with her for a while. While Mom was doing that, Dad and I went and visited with old friends and people he knew. It was on the way to lunch that something amazing happened.
I got a phone call from Assurant Solutions offering me a position! I haven’t been able to blog about this because I was playing the waiting game and didn’t want to announce it prematurely. I’m very excited about this opportunity and I’m moving up in the world!
That pretty much made my day. After lunch, Dad and I went and ran around some more and then went back to my Aunt’s house. That was very emotionally draining because she was in a lot of pain. I was very glad I went and said goodbye to her though.
The rest of the weekend was filled with friends, relatives and food. I forgot what a real donut tasted like. Krispy Kreme is nothing compared to the Donut Stop!
Anywho, I’m excited to be able to talk about this new job and share my experience this weekend with all 2 of my readers.
