Working 9 to 5!

Ok, so more like 8 to 5. I started my new job this week. It's been so exciting, yet so overwhelming. Overwhelmed seems to be a theme in my life right now, and honestly, I don't see that changing much for the next 4 months. I started working part time again at Anthropologie a couple of weeks ago. Side note- Anthro, by far, is my favorite shop on the planet! Just come visit me and you'll see why. The frangrances are intoxicating, the visuals leave you wanting to cozy up in one of our chairs with a blanket and a good book and never leave, and not to mention the CLOTHES! Always adorable! Our visual team never ceases to amaze me! Okay...back on track now. That's not my new job, however, I love that place so much I'm going to keep working there part time, for now...

So...ta-da-dle-da! My new job! I'm the children's/student ministry assistant at First Baptist Nashville! Because this is my first week on the job I want to leave you guys with a "Top 8 Bottom 4" of the week. So, here it goes..

Top 8:

1. The people- the staff here is super welcoming and helpful!
2. My office- I actually have one!! This is the first EVER! So fun! And Emily gave me lots of fun things to put in it! (thanks, em!)
3. 1/2 day Fridays!- so we only work till 12:30 on Fridays! Jealous!? :)
4. It's 2.5 miles away from my future home in East Nash
5. Free parking- if I ever come downtown for anything, I always have a free place to park
6. Working at a church- I love the church! LOVE IT! I love serving the church, so the obvious best job choice for me..WORKING IN A CHURCH!
7. Luch Break- so bc I was a nanny before this, I never really had a lunch break, at least one with out a kid. ha!
8. TBL- Thursday Business Lunch. This week Sarabeth (who is also singing in my wedding..woop woop) sang. so fun to see her in the middle of the work day!

Bottom 4:

1. INFORMATION OVERLOAD!- so far I have intaken more info in the past 4 days then I probably did my whole college career (and that lasted 6 years! GEEZ)
2. Traffic- as of right now I'm driving in every morning from B-wood. 65N...talk about YIKES!
3. Office clean up- so whoever worked in the office before me left a bit for me to reorganize...oh well! here's to office redecoration!
4. Lost my email- So I was here one day and already computer issues! My new email account got deleted. NO WORRIES! It's all better now!
