Uh oh...2 months since my last post! I wonder if I have any readers left? The past 2 months have been a little emotional for me as I've been torn between work and my life back home in LA. It hasn't been easy trying to find a balance between the two and I finally came to the conclusion that financially it wasn't going to be responsible or reasonable for EJ and the dogs to move up here. As a result, I told my boss that I would like to transfer back down to a store in So Cal as they have not yet opened the other two stores in Nor Cal and rent would not be reasonable for a bigger apartment where I am at now. It broke my heart a little bit to make this decision because I wanted it to work out so much but I felt a great sense of relief after I said it and I knew that it was the right decision. At Kim's wedding, the priest said that in the end of life, your job won't be there. It will be your family and friends. This struck s cord and made me put things back in perspective that family and friends truly are important to me and that I would rather be back closer to them because I'm missing out on a lot of important things: friends having baby showers and babies and their babies growing up and just LIFE in general with getting hugs and kisses and puppy licks. I've told them that I'd like to move back sooner rather than later but would stick through the holidays if they needed me too (you have to understand after all that I'll be hard to replace!) and to hopefully make a lateral move to a position down south if there is an opportunity. So that's the update and I'm sure you want to see what I've been up to these past two months!
