Today someone decided it was time for a big change in my life. I blame my new VP at IFSA (who I despise to begin with). But I’d like to think it’s the Big Guy upstairs giving me a shove in the right direction. I lost my job this afternoon. And although I’d like to blame a lot of people (okay, just one person really), I’m trying to think positive. I keep telling myself that this happened for a reason and that something really great will come from this. I tell myself that maybe this was the push I needed to try something new, like freelance writing, which I’ve just very recently tried to break into. Hmm… now that I think about it, maybe deep down I knew (or Big Guy knew) that this was going to happen and that’s why I’ve already started preparing for this freelance thing. Strange how things work like that.
I digress. I’ll be honest, I’m scared. I’m worried sick. I have an off-the-richter-scale headache that I don’t foresee going away anytime soon. I’m stressed. I’m angry. I’m upset. I feel…….lost. The good thing is I have these guys to get me through.
And I’m lucky to have such supportive friends and family to help me. So, yeah, I’m feeling really shitty (pardon my French, Gigi) about all this. But all in all, I’m a lucky girl in so many ways. And I know that
that will give me the strength I need to pull through this and turn it into a very positive change in my life.
Need help with book ideas?? I am willing to brainstorm anytime....and I KNOW you can do it :)
ReplyDeleteLove you, chica! I'm telling you that I really think something good is going to come from this! (And, it is okay to feel shitty for a little while.)
ReplyDeleteWe all know what a great person you are and that something will come along soon. I just had to take a 5% paycut and yes I still am not sure about the new company that took over. Time will tell I may be joining in the unemployment group, who knows. Keep the chin up because something new will pop, I fell it was meant to be, but I know how you feel when 11years ago I was laid off. Your crazy mother in law
