Weekend Update

We kicked off the weekend with an early birthday celebration for Ben and with the news that I landed the job I had interviewed for on Thursday; a part time job (20 to 30 hours per week) at Carrington Place, a skilled nursing facility that is a 5 minute drive down the street. The job is Monday through Friday so STILL NO WEEKENDS and so much closer and more convenient than the assisted living job I have been doing, which is too far, too little hours and too much of a pain to get new referrals. The new job also has the added bonus that it is part time not per diem so a) I am guaranteed at least 20 hours per week and b) I get paid time off. 

On Saturday the Kaplans left for their annual vacation in Hilton Head and we had a relaxing day which involved going to the pool, then picking up some needed things for summer camp which is starting tomorrow, grocery shopping and bringing home Chinese food for dinner. 

Today the kids and I fixed breakfast for Mike for Fathers Day, then we had pizza, apps and beer at BeanTown Tavern, a Boston themed sports bar that is all of 2 miles away and broadcasts all the Boston sports games. We watched a few innings of the Red Sox game and then headed to the pool. 

Tomorrow is the kids' first day of summer camp! Amelia, at least, is super super excited! Charlie, less so ;-)

Also tomorrow I get to give notice at my job, after working there a whole 2 weeks. (That should go over well.) We are also keeping our fingers crossed and double crossed that Mike hears good news from Novant Healthcare tomorrow or Tuesday regarding the position he interviewed for a week ago,  too!! 

Here's a picture of the kids at the splash park on Saturday and of Mike at the bar today:
