What a Difference a Year Can Make

If you had told me last year that I was going to be happier and that everything was going to be okay, I would have laughed in your face (well more like cried).  

It has been one year since I was laid off from my job that I had for 6 years!  At that time I thought for sure that my life was over as I knew it.  My priorities were so mixed up!!!  I remember walking to the parking lot on January 2nd thinking to myself what am I going to do?  I was depressed, and couldn't even talk about my old job without crying.  I look back now and just laugh at myself.  Getting laid off from that job was the best thing that could have ever happened to me!

I am a different person; my family means more to me now, and the "corporate ladder" isn't even in my vocabulary.   I don't remember what the Salt Lake airport looks like, but remember helping Korbin and Kenzi with their lemonade stand in July.  

I love my new job, I love that I get to work with old friends, and even meet some new friends.  It is the best job a girl like me could ever want!  So here is 2009, although being fired from my last job turned out for the best . . . I like this job; and I really don't want to lose it!  Keep your fingers crossed, and one eye open!
