I know I haven't visited in a very long time. I promised that I would revisit when my computer came back from being repaired, but I didn't.
I have been through a lot of transition. All of which seemed to be a natural progression of getting used to my new surroundings.
I got let go of my job in Bloomingdales in" Boca". At the time this was a big blow to my ego. Getting told that anyone isn't happy with hard work that you have put your heart and soul into done never feels good. Not to mention the monetary loss leaves a gaping hole in the finances. Thank goodness for my husband's pension or we would be in big trouble. if anyone is a teacher for NYC and is familiar with tier 1 , this is what saved us from financial difficulties.
The shock is now over. ( I haven't been let go in 33 years when at that time I told off my boss while pregnant for not giving me more authority as an assistant manager of a little maternity store on the upper east side of NYC. It turned out that the manager was fired soon after she fired me. Ha Ha .)I managed to land a couple of freelance days for a company that I had worked for years before. I had a great time. I was told that the people I worked for were very happy with me and wanted me back again.
Joining some clubs in my development is putting me out there. I am over the initial culture shock of the same type of people all over the place. In Valencia Shores( the name of my developement) instead of joining a gym, you have the option to pay every month for excercise classes. Today was Zumba.. Latin type dance moves combined with aerobic activity. Lots of fun. I must say that Jewish women have a hard time shaking the bootie.. or maybe it is generational. I am soon to turn 56. Everyone here thinks that I am visiting my parents when they first see me in class. I think I am the only one that knows that the bootie has seperate joints from the tip half of the body. tbc
