I haven't been a very good supportive friend to you lately, and I wanted to say that I am sorry. I do hope you are doing okay. I briefly read the thread about your job, and I haven't gotten to the part about your descision if there is one....but for what it's worth, I think if you finacially can, you should quit. Being gainfully employed does not determine your value as a person. If it is making you miserable, then don't do it.....(now don't start harping on how I should practice what I preach) Many of us work because we have to, not because we "love" the job. I'd give my first born (seriously, she's such a b these days) to be able to quit my job, spend more time with my family and my home. I really don't want to work. I have worked full time for the past 22 years, while I went to college, while I raised 3 children, while I built a beautiful home and lanscaped yard, and while I took care of an aging father......and I'm tired. I want to be free to go get a haircut, or be able to have the time to go to a therapist, or hey...for once in my life I want to have my OWN business. Something that I want to do.....Hmmm okay, okay, I'm dreaming here...
By the way, this is my magical time where I spend most of my evenings and weekends tending to the yard and my flowers, etc. I love spring. I am doing okay. I've been missing this place so I descided to stop in for a few minutes. I hope you understand, I really don't have a lot of time to be on here, but you are in my thoughts, as always. I have only been able to stop in every other day or so, and all I get done is reading a few posts here or there, and never have any time to post. Then of course there are those times at home when I am completely soused and post self-centered "I wanna talk about me" kind of posts.Anyway, thinking of you, hoping you are well.
