Ok, it's changed enough now! SO much change has happened just since March. I am ready for it to settle down now!
Change 1: I came back from a site visit to lose my job. It was time to part ways and I had actually already started looking because the job just wasn't as satisfying anymore. It was becoming much more political and I believed there was a lot of what made the company special that was being lost. Still, it's tough to leave a place that you have loved. Over the course of time there, my best friend started working there, other close friends started, and of course I made some amazing friends too. I loved and learned many things there. Which leads to Change 2...
Change 2: Started a new job with a great healthcare system in Indianapolis. It was tough to figure out what type of job to search for. That was one of the wonderful things about the last job ~ it was different. Unfortunately, it also pigeonholed us. The type of positions that we worked with don't become available often, so I was discouraged. I lucked out in the position I found and the team that I work with.
Change 3 - 6: Sold my home, stayed with a friend, rented a ghetto-tastic cockroach palace, and bought a house.
Change 7: Bought a new car. After a year of stress and anxiety, I needed to get something else. I now have a lovely Ford Escape. it has all the whistles and bells. Oddly, I haven't really even thought of the bug since I dropped off the spare key at the Ford dealership. I see that as a good thing!
There are other things that have happened along the way, but I figured I needed to get some of the big bang items out of the way to get back in the swing of things!
Hope you didn't miss me too much...
