The beginning of change...

I'm officially done with work now until...I find a job in Dallas or until I get in the Air Force. It was very bittersweet leaving today because I will really miss my coworkers. We worked in what was called The Dungeon; all nine of us. When I first started there the girls were so vicious and horrible to me that I almost quit. I finally found my niche, began fitting in, and a year later, will desperately miss them. Two of them are now engaged (to each other) and getting married a year from today, I left my "work husband", and many many fond memories of times with all of them. :( When I first started there I LOVED my job and hated my work environment, now I hate my job and love my work environment. Change is always hard and as I said goodbye, I had to choke back tears knowing things have forever changed. They knew I was not happy there, they supported me, stood behind me, and built me up when I was down. I will most definitely continue to keep in touch with them and try my hardest to make it back to Tucson next year for the wedding and see them all again.

I'm sitting home alone with the girls, in silence. It's a good feeling. It's also a sad feeling. I hope I can survive these next 30+ days alone and packing up my things. Sometimes I wish I would have just sucked it up and not broken up with boyfriend yet, but like I said, what is the point, it was inevitable. In 30+ days I will have my family surrounding me and my most favorite person on this Earth just 3.5 short hours away.
Here's a toast to me and my future and all the uncertainties it brings...

This weekend...

I volunteered to work tomorrow. This means I will have TEN hours of overtime on this next paycheck coming up. I'm SUPER excited. TEN HOURS OF OVERTIME is going to be great especially with the holidays coming up. I can probably afford to pay off my Vitamix next paycheck, hopefully before I leave for Christmas.

I really DON'T want to work tomorrow, but I don't have anything planned so I figured 6 hours of extra overtime was definitely worth it! :) And at least I will be off at 2pm, so really it's not that bad. I still have 3 sick days I have to use before the end of the year so I may just call in sick on Monday so I still will have a nice weekend.
