Getting back to it!

I was so sad in August when I had to leave my long time job for another opportunity. It was an extremely hard but well thought out decision. I held on as long as I could hoping that something would give but I finally had to do what I felt was best in my situation. I reluctantly gave notice to my boss and let her know that if anything changed and a more stable full time position opened up to please keep me in mind. I wasn't counting on anything but I left with a small glimmer of hope that one day I just might get to go back to what I know best.

I had settled in to my new job and although I didn't hate it, it was definitely not my dream job. I worked with some great people and made a decent wage.

The first part of the month I was enjoying my day off, my phone rang and when I answered it was my previous employer....WHAT? She said that they had a girl quit and asked if I would be interested in rejoining their team....well HECK YES I would! We talked a little about when they would need me to start and steps that they were required to take in order to hire me. I gave notice at my current job and began the process of going back where I felt I belonged.

On my last day of work at the other job I received a phone call. OH NO!! there had been a glitch in the process. Panic set in and all I could think was that I had just quit a job and now I was going to be unemployed!!

I was told they were trying to get everything taken care of but I was truly ill about it for the next four days.... waiting and waiting and waiting.

On that next Monday afternoon I finally got the call and was told to go ahead and get my drug test done and Thursday morning I got the call to start working.....WOWZER was I ever relieved to hear that good news.

I started work last Friday and am LOVING every minute of it. The job is 5 minutes from home and it's back where I started when a began working for this company. It has been like going home!

The past 3 or 4 years have been a roller coaster ride that as much as I wanted to get off it just didn't slow down enough for me to jump. It's been a very long rough patch but I'm hopeful that things will start looking up if I can just have a little more patience. The peaceful feeling of security is starting to return THANK GOODNESS!!

What a great weekend!!

I Love~LoVe~LOVE being a gramma.
I'm pretty sure I have the greatest little grandsons in the entire world!!
We spent the entire weekend with our sweet little Jace. He's at such a fun age. We picked him up Friday after work and took him over to see his Great Granny. He was so good and really enjoyed the visit. Saturday he wanted to go see his granny again but we had other things to do. We went to lunch with his Auntie Kelly then went to the thrift store to see what we could find...He found a special toy that needed to be painted, we took it home and worked on it...once it was done, he played with it most of the day. It was a rainy cool day so I made a big ole pot of creamy cheesy potato soup we gobbled it down then settled in with ice cream to watch "How to Train your Dragon" What a cute movie!! Jace was wore out and didn't make it through the whole movie sooooo of course we watched it again with him today after MickeyDee's for breakfast and a visit to Aunt Diane and Uncle Alan's. He LOVED it!! Man I love that Kid! The only thing that would have made it better would have been if Dylan was here to go with us!!
Thanks for spending the weekend with us sweet Jace!!
Gramma Loves you to peices!!
