“I can feel it coming in the air tonight…..”

Why do I feel like I’ve started a post that way before? Whatever, we recycle around here LOL.

So, I got a new job........ in July, LOL. I know I’ve been in here a couple of times since then, but I was preoccupied with whatever I had to say at those times and didn’t think to mention that. It's actually part of the reason I haven't been around as much recently - there was a TON to learn at my new company and the work was a LOT initially. Between that, the gym and trying to salvage what was left of the summer, I'd be exhausted by Wednesday every damn week.

That being said, I absolutely LOVE my new digs. It's still a lot of work and challenges my organizational skills every single day, but the wins are super rewarding. The office is sick, the people are awesome, and contentment in my workplace has been a long time coming.

Speaking of people, I made an amazing new connection on this job. We started on the same day and she said to me recently that her experience might have been a lot different without me, and not in a good way. I'd say the same of her. Like I said, the job was really overwhelming in the beginning and things were a lot easier having someone to go through it with. Not to mention, we're like the same soul, split into two different bodies, so our conversations get pretty deep, and it's been through those talks that I've been able to connect a lot of the dots regarding this energy shift I'm experiencing in my life. We also laugh til we cry, so there's that.

I've also reconnected with a couple of old friends. It's interesting how coming back together with people after like 25 years of absence from each other's lives allows for an entirely new appreciation for the relationship going forward.

And, of course, it's always great when you get to put in some time with your ride-or-dies, which I've also had a chance to do recently.

I've been on some real "woman behind the curtain" shit for a while now, so it's interesting that my world is suddenly so "peopley". I think I've been mourning what I considered a huge loss for the past 8 or 9 years, but I finally started to understand that I had another choice. That I am the architect. And it all began with this job. Interesting as well that it was the change I needed most and it took the longest to make. The thing that was impacting everything else was the thing that impacted everything else....
