I left my first job after 6.5 years, and it was really difficult although I had transfered to a different office and it wasn't quite the same there... It's great that your blood sugar is nice and stable and that you're enjoying your Donna Reed time. Just don't have any kids if you want your life to stay nice and tidy!

You almost made ME cry, just reading your post. (Glad I didn't have any mascara on-no Alice Cooper! ;-)) As hard as it was to say goodbye, I'm so happy that you finally have time to yourself to smell the flowers and enjoy life a little! (Even though you're being quite a Monica about it. ;-)) Country chicken and gravy sounds soo delicious. chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03231712575528439554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15394728.post-1132688097279880912005-11-22T14:34:00.000-05:002005-11-22T14:34:00.000-05:00As much as they can make us crazy, it can be reall...As much as they can make us crazy, it can be really hard to say goodbye to people that we work with. But it sounds as though you have definitely made the right decision and are finding some well-deserved peace.

I LOVED being at home and cooking and taking care of the things I "felt" like taking care of that particular day! Even working part-time like I do now, makes getting things done incredibly hard, and they are NEVER done the way I used to do them or Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10816734246586566719noreply@blogger.com
