Sometimes love just ain't enough...

Now don't get me wrong, I'm a hopeless romantic.  Unfortunately, I am also a realist.  It's time to move on.  I've been in love with what I do for so long, but love isn't carrying the burden anymore.

Sounds so sad and I am definitely not a sad person!  There's a saying goes something like this;  When one door closes, another opens.  Yep.  It's true.

I left my job as a fast food district manager.  I loved my job and my company, but it wasn't enough. Somewhere along the way I lost my 'want to.'  Maybe it was because I fell in love after being single for so long?  Maybe it was because I hate corporate politics?  Maybe I was tired of trying to help people be successful that didn't want to be helped?  Probably all of those things.  When I left, I thought there would be some kind of mourning period, something, ANYTHING!  There wasn't.  That was how I truly knew it was the right thing.  I don't miss my job.

And NOW??  Several months later?  I stay home with our two youngest boys.  My daughter moved away from home to begin her adult life.  I am relearning how to be a girlfriend/domestic goddess/partner again (tough 'cause I am SO used to being the boss).

Life is moving forward and I like it.
