Ok...so I'm the worst journaler/blogger person of all time. But I'm working through this, and am truly going to try to get better. I think there needs to be a support group for "undisciplined blog updaters"...yes, I am coining that title myself.
So....life has changed in the past, um, well, 6 months. Kids are growing, more ice storms have occurred, the generator has actually been used a second time (I swore this would not occur when it was purchased), and I completely changed career paths in January. After much prayer, thought, and a bit of teeth gnashing, I left my beloved job at The Women's Center to begin a journey working full-time in a new position at Schweitzer. This was actually a bit on the frightening side for me, and not without a lot of questioning and uncertainty. Just ask Darrell....I think if he heard one more "are you sure I'm doing the right thing" from me, he was going to either take off for the nearest forest or tie me up and lock me in the closet. Luckily, we made it through, and the good news is that this has been one of the most exciting, neatest, greatest changes I've ever experienced. God is really amazing in the way he prepares us for things and sets them in front of us at just the right moment. This job has been a true testament to that fact so far.
My goal is to really try to maintain this journal...more for myself than anything...so that I can hopefully document and learn from my challenges, successes, mistakes, etc. along the way. The wild thing about occupying a brand new position is that there is no precedent for how it is to be done. This is not completely unfamiliar territory to me as I really was fortunate to be able to "create" my last position as well, but if I've learned one thing clearly it is this....It is extremely beneficial to keep track of what works and what doesn't in order to continue to progress forward.
If any of you are reading, I'm charging you with holding me accountable to keep my thoughts recorded. Don't hesitate to hound me!
Until next time...
