a few updates

ok so i got another position within davita-i will be working as an admin assistant in the federal way offices. i actually had my first day on the job last tuesday-it was alright-feels like it will be a glorified mailroom position...but its a job and i did get a raise of just under 30 cents an hour. i was disappointed to find i wont have my own desk, makes me feel like a temp or something. there arent even any lockers for me to put my coat or purse in...i can lock up my purse at the reception desk but that is on the second floor and the mailroom (where i will be spending at least half of my day) is on the first floor. i dont understand it-we all had our own desks in the mailroom in tacoma. and then the way things are arranged in the mailroom in federal way the tables are too high to sit at so you have to stand all day to open and sort the mail! and there are no mats to stand on! i am absolutely talking to my boss about that...but it is a beautiful building and i can park on site (no more riding the link) and surprisingly it only took me 20 minutes or so to get there! coming home was another story but i will figure out some different routes as time goes on. right now i am working in federal way tues and thurs and mon wed fri in tacoma. i will have that schedule until sept 6th. on sept 9th i will be full time in federal way. i am supposed to get my pay raise in the middle of august.
we have started working back out at the spanaway property. i pulled down alot of ceiling tiles and insulation on thursday (had the day off) and will be back out there today to continue that. its nasty, the insulation is full of rat pee and droppings and we found a nest of black ants in some of it too!! and no matter where you stand that crap falls on you :( i cant wait till we get it all down tho. we are trying to get the back 2 bedrooms and the 2nd bathroom livable so we can move in and get this house on the market. i dont want to live in a construction zone but we may have to now that we are down to one income...and we may still lose it all and be living out of my van soon who knows lol!!!
