Well folks, the time has finally come. I'm employed. And I'm so happy about it. I start a new job tomorrow with Gallup--I will be the administrative coordinator for the in-house legal department which basically means I'll make their jobs easier every single day.
It's a funny thing, you know, having a job. Especially after not having one. All summer, I have been job searching, wishing and hoping something really good would come along. Now that the time is actually here, I'm feeling very bittersweet about the whole thing. I will miss the little adventures Kate and I had everyday, I will miss going to the park and sitting in the sun in backyard while she splashes in the pool. I will miss those three precious hours in the afternoon when the house was napping and I could get something, anything done. I will miss going to Target for no real reason other than to get out of the house and go somewhere. I will miss our weekly playdates with Harper and Hudson as they are starting to become friends, real friends. I will miss my girl.
But, there are so many things to look forward to. I'm excited for a routine again, a reason to set an actual alarm clock. I'm excited to meet new people, build new relationships and learn about a new industry that I know nothing of. I'm excited for a 9 to 5, Monday through Friday, regular hours job. I'm excited to help provide for my family again.
So wish me luck on my first day back. Ooo, I'm going to need it.
