Back to Work.

I was blessed to be able to be home with MY family for an entire week! (Emphasis on MY because on June 9, 2008 at 9:47 pm a new branch of the Winston family has begun!) Ella JoAnn has officially debuted in our family. For more information please go to my Wife's blog. (If you find nothing, please leave a comment letting her know she needs to update it and that 1st time babies should not be used as an excuse!)
Having been off a full week I get a good 'back to work' surprise! Today I get to go to work a half an hour early and get to get slammed by Benjamin News. Benjamin News is a book company and likes to send lots of books through UPS. Packages are around 30 lbs. It really isn't bad when the packages get sent alone and at a steady pace but it sure becomes a REAL pain when other sized and weighted boxes come along with them, and/or they come all at once down the conveyor belt.
All in all UPS has been a good place to work. The insurance is GREAT! I just pay Union Dues and insurance for MY entire family is paid for. I get pretty good time off. I got paid for staying home with MY family! The only downside is what the labor does to the body. I just hope I get out of it without permanent back damage.

* Just a note. I tried to post a picture of Ella but ran into problems. Will try again later.

* This picture was added on Thursday, June 19. Sorry for the delay.

You should record a back to work blues music video and post it, that would be cool.
