Blessings in Disguise?????

Well, it is finally happening. My office is shutting down and I am one of about 3 people left, but alas tomorrow is my final day here. I have mixed feelings. I have been here for 3 years and for the most part have no complaints. We all seem to have found our niche together and things just go smooth but we don’t have any work and you can’t very well keep something afloat when there aren’t any dollars coming in.


Every one is telling me that it is a blessing in disguise. It is my chance to go back to school and find something that I love instead of just being ok with. I agree. I have always loved the medical field and have already registered at the local community college. Summer classes start in May so I am going to be hanging out enjoying my time with my daughter for a few months.

That may prove to be the death of me. LOL

Many of you received an email with my new email address. I am adding it to my blog too. You can always reach me at my midlifemommy07 at yahoo dot com addy!

I feel blessed that I have this opportunity right now and that I have family and friends that support my decision.

Life is good for me in so many ways right now. I am excited for this new chapter in my life.

So, here is to 2011, all this year has become so far and what possibilities that are yet to come!

  2. The medical field is a good one to be in. I think that it's a wonderful thing that you're going back to school AND that you've got people that are supporting you. Being able to spend more time with your daughter is a gift, too. Even though some days you'll want to run screaming to a bar!

    You're going in the right direction, girl! YAY! you!

  14. Oh wow! I got your email but thought maybe you were just making a job jump. I definitely think this is a time of huge opportunity for you. These times don't always come along - so make the most of it!

    In 2003, I was laid off from a 4-year job and it turned out to be one of the best things in the world for me. I wouldn't be where I am today had that not happened. Sometimes the shifts are scary, but they can propel us forward into much happier situations. Good luck! Can't wait to hear what you do next!
