A New Job...

It has been a while since my last post. It seems to have been too long really. I've been struggling with our daily rhythm here since I started this job. I've gotten a job as a Resident Manager for an apartment complex here in our city. I had to think of a way to work and stay home and this way, I can have the perfect balance of both. I can be home, I can work and I can still have my little one with me! I haven't had much time to knit, to craft or to really do anything for myself because I've been doing this 7 days a week for a while now. I suppose I should just take my yarn bowl to the office with me! It's right outside by the playground and I have a perfect view from the windows there! So I hope to be back soon with some interesting stories. I've been running a science class and putting together a craft and knitting class for all the children here in the summer. We have even got plans for a huge community garden!
Yesterday, I discovered a swarm of bees had moved in by our playground. So here is a picture of that! The week before that we had a tenant who lost a python in their apartment before they moved. That was horrifying. We eventually found him hiding in a drawer and returned him to his owner. It's going to be interesting but I'm hoping I can build a community up and make it a better place!!!
