Well, at least the first day is over and done with. This little introvert is totally and completely exhausted from having to interact with people for 8 straight hours (including lunch which they were kind enough to take me to and pay for!). Seems like a nice place and so far, so good. I will begin serious training with one of the other planning assistants on Tuesday but for now I am in “newbie” mode (meet and greet and take in lots and LOTS of information).
My head is so full it might explode. I wish I carried a coma in my pocket so I could just climb into it and relax. Alas, I cannot. So … must find other ways to just chill out.
For now, though, I will pretend that I am here (see below) and can breathe the ocean air.

Yep, I know the feeling! First days/weeks on the job are always fun and very nerve wracking! Nothing to do but accept it and dive in there … it makes the days go more quickly. But I am sure you made the right choice and I look forward to grabbing you for lunch some Friday afternoon when I’m off since you will be so convenient!
Put your feet firmly on the floor and feel your groundedness. Breathe very deeply and slowly … now say it with me …
They can’t eat me. I am safe.
I can do this and my head will not explode.
There … better???
I love you (and congrats on this move!)
