Today was my 2nd day at Starbucks. Yesterday was basically just paper work and going over manuals, and today was a little more hands on. I learned how to do the coffee, the lattes, the cappiccinos and the tea. Tomorrow I don't go in, but Thursday will be an 8 hour day, and I'll learn the rest of the stuff. It's all a bit overwhelming, but hopefully I'll be able to figure it all out eventually!!
Moving day went fairly well... Everything was already packed and ready to go, so it all went pretty fast. We also had the help of some very nice neighbors, so I was very appreciative about that. I was worried about being sad, but I think enough time has passed that I am no longer that attached, (as I haven't been there for 6 months now really.) I think that if I had been staying there it would have been a lot harder. Later on in the day I also went back to clean up... I wanted to make sure everything looked good haha. I had to cut myself off, (especially with the carpet cleaner,) as I could have continued to go on for hours. I can feel good about the state that I left it though, and that makes me feel better. :-)
Olga has been a little loud the last couple of days, and it's been a challenge as I've been so busy. I will have to plan things out a little better from here on out, as Olga uses every possible opportunity to her advantage. I also will not able to see Betsy this week, (because of scheduling conflicts,) and unfortunately I won't be able to see her next week either, (because she'll be gone for spring break.) Luckily I will still see Brina tomorrow, and hopefully will be able to see her 2x next week. I think it could be very easy for me to get off track right now, as "plans" and challenges are always in the works.
Since I've been only coaching part time my depression and self esteem has definitely been better. I don't think I realized how toxic synchro was for me until I removed myself from it. Although I am still coaching a little, it's much different and it is not stressful at all. I get a little bored sometimes, but overall I think it's a good fit for me now, (plus I'm getting a lot of privates.) I'm glad it's all working out so far for me. :-)
