Possums make me very nervous.
They look sneaky to me.

Some houses we looked at have a prison stype bathroom in basement. Just in corner no walls is the throne. No curtain no nothing. Kinda weird to call it a half bath....
And they have wicked teeth....

Job report:
I really like it here.
I feel like a valued member of a great team.
This week a bunch of tier 1 (the people who take incoming trouble calls) were in training, so we senior folks had to be onsite and available to assist - we were told not to schedule any on-site visits for this week if possible.
For two brand new clients, the CEO and the VP each reached out to me directly and told me to go meet with them and evaluate their situation and make recommendations.
I replied that we were supposed to be on hand for coverage this week, and then I received email from my manager (who told us not to schedule any off-site stuff) telling me to set up the meetings and go.
So the "top brass" as it were are aware of me and specifically want me to be the first person they meet from our company, and trust me to form that relationship.
Feels good to be appreciated. This is after nearly 9 years of feeling like just a worker bee.
My neighbor's house was like that. We built them some walls.

I teared up this morning in front of our entire staff.
One of our new hires is a former student and during his introduction he thanked two of us for recognizing his potential and not letting him "wallow in mediocrity" (it's a mantra I preach to the kids). He credited us for him getting his GED and pursuing college when no one in his family had ever graduated high school. He's here to pay it forward. "I hope I live up to the standard you taught me Mr. Yoshida." (that's when my eyes leaked). It's a good day.
It's weird. You never know what will resonate with the kids but as teachers we really do have tremendous influence.
. . . and never underestimate the power of a chocolate chip cookie recipe in teaching a youngster about life
And they have wicked teeth....
