Waiting

One of the important things we have to learn in life, is to wait. I am so bad with that, so I get itchy :-) when all I can do is wait, but this is life, right?

Mike has started work yesterday; he is a helper for a driver who is proud of making 30 deliveries by lunch. Mike used to make 50...in Toronto, in the traffic and craziness. Oh, and he is making about $50 dollars a day! Hehe.....I am not laughing of happiness but with irony. For someone who used to make about $184 a day for the last five years it could be very challenging to deal with this.
Mike is happy that he is working; he is the kinda person who can't stay still, with no work when we need the money. I respect and love that about him, but it breaks my heart, when I see him getting ready in the morning with a face like he is going to a funeral:-) I love him, he is not complaining at all.

I am going to start working at the girls' house tomorrow. I will be just shadowing a staff and learn the things I'll have to do.
The girls' house is a staffed foster home for girls, who have behavioral issues. It's a little bit like Moberly in Toronto, for those of you who know, but it's not a group home and it's not locked.
