It's Only A Phone Call

It's funny how a phone call can change things in an instant.  As I was getting ready for work last Thursday my DIL called.  They need me to go to VA to help my son with the boys.  SOON.  What's a Mama to do?  You go where you're needed, right?

I have talked to my leaders in the castle.  I am out for the next 5 weeks-with or without a personal leave.  Disney is a great company but their part timers have no protection.  We don't even get bereavement leave. So it looks as if I have worked my last day as a Fairy Godmother in Training.  I didn't get the ceremony and send off but it's ok.  My wonderful Ravelry friends have assured me I still carry the magic inside:)

Not Working is Hard Work

Adjusting to a very part time part time job is harder than I thought it would be...Life no longer revolves around saving enough energy to make it through my shifts or recovering from them.  Knowing we can make it whether I work or not is so freeing but it does make it easy to slack off.

The upcoming move is getting real.  This is my start on packing...

One box down and 100 to go...
