Moving On...

"Today is the first day of the rest of your life."

I've heard this many times. Obviously I understand what it means but I never really felt that it was true...until today. It's is my last day at my present job (sorry I'm not going to say the company name because I'm about to put them on BLAST!!!)

I've worked as a consultant/project manager/accountant/travel planner/ for this company for 3 years. I'm so glad to be out I can't begin to explain. This company, despite it's name, is not the least bit innovative. The company doesn't care about it's employees and the Executive VP has no cojones so he allows the US office to be micro-managed from 1/2 way around the world! The company made some bad decisions and I think it's days are numbered. But it matters not because I'M GONE!!!! Praise Jehovah!!!

Ok so where am I going and what is the point of this blog? Well...as you know (if you read about me) I am a nursing student. I have been trying for the past year to get a job in healthcare and I finally did. I am a CNA for an assisted living facility. I'll be caring for developmentally disabled people (adults and children). I am really excited about it. The only downside is the pay. It's a lot less than what I am used to so I wasn't gonna take the position. But my husband is totally behind me and told me to go for it. It's only temporary until the summer, then I can get an externship working at a hospital (prayerfully).

So, I really do feel like this is the 1st day of the rest of my life. I actually stepped away from my security blanket and I'm working toward my goals. The best part about it is that my hubby is right here beside me (like always).

Ladies, I hope you are all living your dreams. Don't let anything stop you. Money, negativity from family/friends, nothing. Do what you gotta do to make yourself happy. You deserve it! Now, I'm not saying forget about your family. We still have to take care of home so make it work. But make it work to your advantage.

Life's too short for regrets. Live like you want....Peace and Blessings
