I got a job.
In a few weeks I’ll be starting, up in Kalispell, working as a youth case manager for a private non-profit. The money is pretty bad, and the organization and work perfect. I’m anxious to get started, as I’ve been out of the field for too long. I’m also anxious to normalize life, day to day, week to week. The last twelve months have provided a lot of fantastic moments, and a lot of upheaval and difficulty. Having the overall picture settle down and consolidate would be welcome. Of course, I have to move and figure out how to do my new job first.
I’m very happy to be staying in Montana. More than anything else the space has grown on me, profligate rivers and forests combined with few people, Glacier, Yellowstone, the Bob, the mountains next to the backyard.
There’s more I’ll miss about Missoula than I have the wherewithall to express, but yesterday evening partially captured above might give an idea.
Sad, and happy.
