The leaves are changing colors, the acorns are falling, Halloween paraphernalia is emerging through town, and I'm sitting here in shorts. They're calling for 80 degree weather this week which unphases the locals who tell me it really doesn't start to get cold until the end of October. Mmm... perfect.
The majority of my weekend has been spent on the boat (even in the rain) since my parents were here. We toured the shorelines, wove in and out of the North Carolina border, admired the huge mansions and the dam, and then anchored in a cove and had a picnic on the lake. The best day was today, since the sun finally came out, but I think I got a sunburn.
I have some serious networking to do now. My co-workers and friends here have some great connections, so hopefully they'll be able to help me out. I'm still continuing the seemingly inevitable job searches, but I think I have more of a focus now both with what I want and what I need as far as improvement goes.
And speaking of co-workers, Jenny sold the coffeehouse to the one lady, Dale, so she can spend more time with her children (one of whom has down-syndrome). The transition is happening October 1st, but Dale said she wasn't going to change much: "This is a successful business, why would I change it?" She did hire 2 new girls so I'll now be training them as well, but the one will only be able to work Saturdays, which could mean weekends off for me. *eeee!*
