My first week at the new job is done! It's going fine, but boy, the principal wasn't kidding when she said there was going to be a "steep learning curve"! The bookkeeping aspect of it is far more complicated than I expected, but I'm learning a lot and taking it a day at a time. And unlike last year, I get to learn in a pleasant, supportive environment where I don't have to fear making a mistake because a volatile, mentally disturbed bully is in charge. My new principal and assistant principal are both great--friendly and calm and professional--and I can tell I'm really going to love working with both of them. What a difference!
In the absence of anything else of general interest to talk about at the moment (because bookkeeping is a lot of things, but entertaining isn't one of them) I'll share a couple of pictures from my garden this past week. It's a happy place at the moment. :)

Love that big bee in the flower! And glad your new job has a great working environment -- I'm happy for you!
Stunning photo if I unfocus the bee. I need to get over myself. I am SO happy for you!
A pleasant, supportive environment makes even a "steep learning curve" not so daunting. So glad you're feeling good and anticipating a good year! Love the bee/marigold photo. Have a pleasant & relaxing remainder of the weekend.
I'm delighted that it's going so well at the beginning; that's an excellent sign. The bee photo is incredible! I love bumbles.
Your new job sounds very promising. Your garden products are a delight to the eye!
Bookkeeping is a necessary evil like clipping old folks' toe nails. Rather you than me!
Oh, Jennifer. I am so happy.
As someone who's got years in accounting, believe me, the bookkeeping will get boring fast.
So happy to read about your new job and beautiful garden. I am very out of the loop but trying to catch up.
Everything sounds, and looks, great. Good times ahead!
Glad to hear all is going well! That flower with bee is a great shot!
The first week has set the tone, and it sounds good!
Your garden beings you so much joy - plus good, healthy food. What‘s not to love!

I'm so glad that you have such supportive coworkers!
I'm so glad things are going well in your new school.
Your vegetables look amazing. My dog eats everything eatable I grow in the backyard so I mostly stick to flowers. Sigh...
I am so glad to hear that your new job is going well. A good working environment makes all the difference in the world!

Keep popping in to check on your newsxx
The cycle is 'panic' < "adaption" < 'the new norm" < followed by hopefully "Wouldn't have it any other way"
Love that bumblebee picture! New jobs can be a challenge but it sounds like you have the right approach, I am sure it will become second nature in no time.
