Greetings from Ithaca, New York

I left Madison at 3:30pm and arrived in Ithaca at 7:30pm. The drive went very smoothly; even the stretches of road with heavy traffic were moving, which one cannot take for granted. I have put away all my stuff and checked on my peppers which are still doing fine... and now I am kind of mopey because my apartment feels empty without Dottie, even though she was only here for two weeks. *sigh*

Tomorrow morning I have another reemployment services workshop -- this one is about interviews, and how to come off looking like a person anyone would be stupid NOT to hire. Then on Friday I'm attending another workshop on civil service jobs. I have no particular feelings about civil service departments one way or another, but it's good to know what the options are and apparently there's a lot of hiring rigmarole involved. Tests and stuff, I think. So I am going to become Informed On The Topic. :-)

*hugs for you* I totally get it. It's so weird being without my dogs so I know that 'empty' feeling. Also: I've dog-sat before and it's definitely weird right after they go home. Puppies (and dogs lol) are just special like that I guess. <3
