AWOL
Hello Dear Ones,
First let me apologize for going AWOL. I was working 12 hour days and had on-going issues getting onto the OH site from my desk at work. So many times I had good intentions and so many times, could not connect.
Then honestly, my life was so boring, I had nothing new to say………all I did was work. My house was filthy, no more gym visits; even tho I was paying a monthly membership. No more fun, work took over everything. I was ashamed that I put work ahead of everything. I was also angry that I was letting this happen to me. Last October, I had accepted a salaried position that was extremely low paying in exchange for a 24 hour work week. Instead I was working more than twice that and was feeling had. Work became consuming and I had to let my volunteering go at my church, I stopped seeing friends, stopped working out, stopped caring about my happiness because I had to accomplish the work of 3 people instead of a part-time person. Something had to give and it did. I finally decided to resign this week.
It was hard. I have never quit a job before, especially without having another. I didn’t plan it. It just happened. Nobody was more surprised than me when I sat down to write out my thoughts to the docs who never had time to sit down and talk to me about major issues going on in their business. After several long e-mails that I kept deleting to start over again, I just finally admitted to myself I was miserable and the part time job was a full time night mare. I changed the long-winded e-mail to 2 lines and resigned.
I missed talking to you all. I haven’t even had the time to read what has been going on. Over the next couple day, I am committed to reading what has been going on in every ones’ lives.
Hugs,
Sharon
