Congratulations to Jared!

Jared had some excellent news the other day when he was offered a job with a mediation firm in Watertown! It's a small operation that he noticed a few weeks ago and decided to stop by and give them his resume in hopes that they'd think of him if they needed any help. Lo and behold, they gave him a call! He's going to be assisting there a few days a week. It's only part-time, and he doesn't know how long it will last, but it's exactly in the field he wants to get into and learn more about, not to mention a great resume-builder. And it's only a few blocks away from his house, so he can walk in even on snowy days like this. So congratulations to him! I am incredibly proud.

No work for me today due to the snow. I'm glad, I'm not feeling well and I want to get things done around here. I have already shoveled out half of the driveway, even that accursed bump churned up by the snow plow pushing aside the snow on the road. I hate that stuff, it's slushy and grimey and much heavier than regular snow. The one thing I'm pleased about is that it forces me to get some exercise, I can really feel it in my abs. I'm not that sore afterward from it, though, which I guess means I'm not as out of shape as I thought, and it's probably not going to have a huge effect. But whatever, at least I'm working my abs.

Finished my third character sheet last night. Today I aim to get another one done, and either a second one or the bluesheet. The bluesheet actually might be a good idea, so that I can get it out to everyone sooner rather than later.

I'm so proud of both of you!! Him for the job, and you for making such steady progress with your character sheets!

That's fabulous news. You're right, perfect resume fodder.

I broke down and bought an electric snowthrower. It makes the snow removal better, but it was so heavy and wet today that it took me two passes to do the driveway, and I haven't even dared to go touch the pack at the end of the driveway. That stuff can only be done with a shovel, and it is going to sucketh mightily.

I would KILL to have your snowthrower. Without one, there's no hope of even trying to do our sidewalk. It's just not gonna happen.

Congratulations! :D (I should probably just pass that along in person.)

Awesome news! Thanks for sharing, since it's not like Jared uses LJ ;)

(Thanks, also, for being the only person I invited to signed up for the Daily Health Challenge. Having someone else doing it motivates me!)
