New Job?
YES! Thats right, I took the Richmond job. Another job I can add to my resume, I did it again! I have had a new job every year for the last 4 years. Am I proud of so many job changes? well, considering all these jobs are in my career field and circumstances just so happen to fall where they fell I am proud to be where I am actually. It is not everyday you have 2 jobs fighting for you at this point and I feel so blessed! My talents have proven that I am doing the right thing!
I was able to enjoy having a few extra days off during my last week with JM. I definitely took advantage of sleep in those days and taking it easy. It doesn't matter how scheduled I am at getting up early
during the week for work, my body just loves its sleep so by the weekend
I sleep in till 10 or 11...its fantastic actually! So needless to
say, this time off gave me what I needed to have the chance to recharge!
Life is good!
I started my new job March 11. I know now more than ever I made the right choice. Its going to be so nice having a steady paycheck, full benefits, weekends off, and 8-5 M-F all while also working in the design field. I am hoping this will open up more time for myself with my photography, spending more time with my wonderful boyfriend, and travel. There are so many great things in my future, I can feel it! Of course I choose the Monday after Daylight Savings to start the new job so not only did I lose an hour of sleep, I couldn't sleep at all due to the nerves of the new job, my supervisor was out of town, and I also got bombarded with JM all day from current jobs I am working on with them still. Needless to say, first day had its ups and downs. Luckily I still had it in me to get new tires on my car after work thus ending the day being quite productive! I am hoping as we approach mid-week my body can adapt and not be so restless at night. I need my sleep!
I have to share that the weekend before my new job started my wonderful boyfriend decided to bring it upon himself to spoil me. I have no idea how I got so lucky with him, but I appreciate all that he does and has done for me and I only hope he knows how much I love him. He planned a day taking me to Comedy Works, a nice dinner to the Altitude Restaurant in the Hyatt, then we went to the 42nd floor to the lounge where we got a couple drinks and looked out onto the city. We had a great conversation as always then he decided to pull out of his pocket this bow wrapped box...with a beautiful sapphire necklace inside. Wow! It is gorgeous! I cannot wait to wear it! I am truly blessed in my life right now.
Our trip to Charleston is happening in a little over a month which I am completely stoked for! I cannot wait to see my bestie and show my babe around Charleston. I hope he falls in love with it like I have :o) De-stress is much needed for the both of us as well! We got a couple Living Social deals to take a 2 hour BYOB sail boat ride in the harbor as well as a fun little ghost tour around town. Its going to be such nice get away! To top it off hopefully I can get my hair done and eye brows waxed by Jamie as I have waited months and I have yet to find a good stylist here in Colorado.
I also need to look into planning a trip out to Indiana to see my girl Vicki for I have missed her and a few of my other girls out there. I think back to my year out there and I am so glad I did it. That is a time in my life I will never ever forget. That little small town did make an impression on me! who would have thought! I also need to figure how I am going to make all these trips works since there is already talk with my boyfriend to go to San Fran, New York, and take a cruise over Christmas. My sister wants to check out Charleston this summer and do something else, but honestly I am now having a hard time keeping track of all the places I need to try and go this year. I have lots of saving up to do! oh...and not enough vacation time so this will be interesting. Looking forward to finding a way though! Oh...and all the great pictures I am going to take, its going to be FANTASTIC!
