Update at Work

I thought I'd better do a post about my new job. So here we go...

I love it! It's great to be back in the workforce, and back in an office environment. I forgot how much I miss that. Our Finance/Accounting Dept. is made up of 9 people (all girls). Except for our CFO that's a male, and I have yet to meet him. Weird, but I guess that is just the way he is. There are 3 Accounts Receivable Clerks including myself, and my primary duties is Accounts Receivable. It is invoicing out projects that our project managers are doing work for. It's more number crunching, and working with budgets and I love that. I have approximately 35 project managers I am responsible for, and each project manager has on the average 50 projects I am responsible to invoice out. The difference of invoicing from my previous job is we did it once a month in a 3/4 day window and that was it for the month. In this position I am invoicing out any day of the week for the project manager. It's quite different then what I was used to, but I am getting the hang of it. Just getting use to their internal lingo they use for certain reports and such. I am loving the social aspect of it too, and meeting new people. We have a wide variety of people who work in our Dept. A older lady in our dept (her daughter is my age) thought I was way younger then I actually was. When I told her I had two girls one who was 5, and one who was 4 months she actually said "You must have started your family quite young!" I was kind of shocked she said that, but I informed her I was 26 when I had my first daughter. She was floored. She didn't even think I was 26 now! I guess I should be flattered. Anyway, work is going great. Trying to find a balance with two girls, one not sleeping through the night yet, and the other going to school for 1/2 days on MWF's. Thank goodness we live close to family to be able to help us out where we aren't able to so that Karenza can still be involved in things she needs to be involved in. She is loving that she is going back to her daycare. She misses the kids there. Amyah has been great at daycare. Such a good baby is what she tells me. She just loves watching all the action of the other kids. The weeks seem to be flying by so fast, as I am so busy at work that the days just seem to fly by.

I'll try to post/update soon with more pictures of the girls. Can't believe spring/summer is right around the corner. We are welcoming the warmer weather that's for sure. Where we can be outside more! Well better run as there is a list of things that need to be done laundry, dishes, and play time with my girls....

I'm so glad that you are loving the job. Definitely makes going back to work with little ones easier! I can't imagine how it is with 2 of them! I know I don't write much, but I think of you often!
