Good day! We are back from our trip to Italia! It was everything we hoped and prayed it would be and more!
We arrived home late Saturday night, headed to mass on Sunday morning, lunch at mom's, and then started on the massive mounds of laundry. We did Peter's first as he had to go back to Raleigh Sunday afternoon because he started his internship at the John Locke Foundation Monday morning. He had a great first day, by the way!
Yesterday Dan and I both took off of work which was definitely a good move because we still had a lot ot do from being gone - more laundry, yard work, bills, etc. And also just getting these old bodies back on East Coast time was a lot harder than I thought it would be.
Dan's back at work this morning and I'm heading off to work soon as well. And by the way - I got a new position at work - I will be the person receiving all the product into the store, matching it with it's invoice, setting it up in our point of sale system, setting the price, etc. I'm excited for this new opportunity but also a little nervous. I trained with the person doing it before me for a few days and then went on vacation and I'm hoping I remember everything I'm supposed to do! The nice thing about this position is that once they back fill my old position, I will no longer have to work any Saturdays. My new schedule will be Monday - Thursday.
Sarah starts her internship at the Bethesda Center for the Homeless next Monday so she is extremely excited about that. Thankfully that's in Winston-Salem so she will be here all summer!
I posted pictures and updates from the trip on my personal Facebook page. I always like to do in-depth blog posts so my family can refer back to what we did and what we saw kind of like a scrapbook but because I'm no longer sitting on the couch eating bon bons on the daily, it will take me some time. :) In the meantime, enjoy this lovely shot taken in Amalfi. We passed by these steps each time we went up the 190 steps to our apartment.
Ciao!

Welcome back! I love that photo. 190 steps? Yikes!
Hooray for a wonderful vacation to Italy. I'm so glad it was even better than anticipated. How wonderful.
Congrats on the new position and the no more Saturdays. Mon-Thurs is my sitting schedule during the week. We can meet for lunch on Fridays. Hee hee.
Taking the day off before getting back to the grind makes perfect sense.
Hooray!! I can't wait to hear more about the trip and everyone's internships. Hopefully they're still all going well!!
Yay for you no longer working Saturdays. That's a gift!
