No One Said That Change and Personal Growth are Easy

The time finally came. One time too many have my feelings been hurt, and I could NOT take anymore abuse. I quit my job today. Much talking was done by the parties involved, and this was just what needed to happen. Hubster is shaky, but I am cool and collected. I KNOW that we will be provided for. God is looking out for us, and he always will. This was the RIGHT, not EASY decision for me. I was going to have ANOTHER breakdown if I stayed there any longer.

So far I have already:

Contacted SEVERAL friends to find out if their places of employment are hiring, updated my resume, and I have already applied to about 10 jobs. Tomorrow I am going to get my hair cut (It is too wild, shaggy, and crazy looking right now...not professional at all!) go see my counselor at school and register for Graduation, work on my finals and art projects that I have due, and job search some more. I have SEVERAL phone calls that I will be making about jobs as well. Plus I will be updating my resume on some job boards, and checking out Craigslist.com to see what he has to tell me. ^-^

Some (the majority) of people FEAR CHANGE. I don't. I am embracing it. I like change, it makes me happy. I know that I have grown as a person and that is why I am moving on. Going to "bigger and better things", "Moving on up...(to the East Side)" I AM "finally going to get a piece of the pie." My amazing boss, well...now friend Jeff told me that "No job is worth your tears."

I am at peace, zen, hell I am NINJA right now. The SKY IS THE LIMIT BABY!!!! I am applying for TONS of different jobs, in TONS of different fields that I have NEVER done before.

I could be a patient transporter this time next week, or a bartender-in-training...who knows? I will NOT be typecast into a stupid shitty clerical cube job that I hate NO MORE!

Whew... 1:30 here. I am so hyper...I do not know how I am going to fall asleep.

I am going to meditate...and do some more laundry.
