Yes I know I am one! I really need to start writing, in some form, everyday! Especially since I want to organize my poetry into book form and start writing a book in 2008! Practice will help. Though I have to practice!
I left the company, again, that I was with off and on for 4 years two weeks ago tomorrow. The next day I started working for a close family friend who's an interior designer. She had asked me to come work for her but I kept hoping the other work situation would work out. I didn't really plan ahead on the quitting. I was having a rough day at work, which unfortunately had became normal. I called Redd in tears and he told me that if I wanted to I should quit. He's told me before, which he pointed out, but I always hoped for the best and stayed. He explained how much stress it was adding to my life which I didn't need!
After I decided to really quit I actually had to tell them. They knew I was leaving whenever Redd got his duty station. That's what they thought was the case I explained it wasn't that. They seemed surprised and told me to take a week and let them know if I was sure. I was VERY SURE. I may ONE DAY go back to the company but in no way that location unless a WHOLE LOT changes. I called my new boss and asked if she still wanted me to work for her. She asked me to start the next day. The job is better and is not structured at all. I get to run errands, organize her office and will start creating her website soon.
The morning after I quit I felt like a new person. It was like a burden had been lifted. It's amazing how much one thing can effect you so much. I've realized that I have to let the things go that don't work. I've done it in relationships and friendships, but really realized it in the career aspect with this situation. I'm the queen of walking away from stuff and have to one other job but that was because of a better offer. Which turned out to be the "burden" I just left.
I'm not going to look for another job until we know where will be living. We would of known this week but with the holiday the military is bs'ing.
Other news: Niya is doing great in Kindergarten. She's learning to read and ask how to spell everything! It's amazing to look at her now and remember just 5 years ago she was a few months old. My oldest niece 16th birthday was earlier this month! I remember when she was born! Time flies. I know I will look back at this year one day like WOW!
Thanksgiving is tomorrow. My sister and I split up the food between us. Redd will still be in Texas though last week we thought he'd be home for the holiday. Niya is going to NC with her dad to visit his family. I have them in my prayers since it will be their first holiday since his father passed away. Redd's mother is visiting his sister in-law. My grandmother and mother will be joining my sister, nieces and I for dinner.
Happy Thanksgiving All.
