the Will to move on…

dsc_0141there are many cases in life where you “can’t always get what you want”.  wether its that new pair of shoes, or that guy who just seems “to good to be true” sometimes its just “not in the cards”.  i can honestly say that life just really isn’t going my way at the moment.  its not that i am in any way unhappy, or that i am regretting past decisions, but there are the few missing pieces i would like to find.  

as i have mentioned in past blogs i am really unhappy with my job, well i was until i lost it.  i have decided that in some weird twist of thoughts that this “mishap” is actually a blessing.  after taking a few days, and many tension headache pills i have come to the conclusion that i am walking away from a job that i detest with a good reference, and some experience under my belt.  (i just might have to starting selling my organs for grocery money)

on the other hand there is something that i need to give up, but this thing is going to take a little more time, and a lot more “Will”. i guess sometimes timing really is everything, and i don’t know if i’m to early or to late, but i do know that its time to pack up and move out!  although i am not ready to come right out and say what i am giving up, (i am pretty sure its pretty obvious with the Capital letters) i know that i am walking away with a great friendship and a “maybe” for the future.  i guess in some weird way i am willing to give up my “thoughts” to save the friendship that i have.  i lost it once, and can’t imagine going through a ski season without it!

all this being said is alot easier than being done.  although i went through pretty much the same thing last year i feel like this time is going to take a little more work.  

well i guess i really can’t say anything else without coming and saying what i am “Willing”.



I don’t have a lot to say, except…

img_1341well with i title like the one above you can only imagine the mood that i am in right now!  today marks an all new point in my life, today is the day i can officially say i have been let go from a job!  no i did not quit, and no i did not get fired.  i went to work like it was any other day… dreding every moment of it, only to be stopped half way through my day and told that i no longer have a spot with the company, and that as of December 23 i will be “jobless”.  well i guess i really won’t be jobless cause i have my job with BSF, but i will for sure be poor, and on the market (the job market that is).  

its really scary to think about, i guess for the first time i am starting to see the very real effect that the economy is having on our nation, and on my small town of Bozeman.  not to mention the extremely poor timing of this loss, i mean really two weeks from Christmas, i best be getting my Christmas bonus!  

now don’t get me wrong, in no way was this my perfect job, and was i in no way wanting to stay there (not even for another week), but to have my job taken away, without a choice is really scary!  the truth is i had been looking for other work for the past few weeks, and planned on leaving there as soon as the next oppurtunity presented itself, or when it was time to go to school i was out of there, but that would have been because it was my choice… not my bosses!

well i guess everything happens for a reason, and i trust God to provide me with a new, hopefully better, and more fufilling job.  BUT no matter how i look at the situation i can’t help shake the fact that TODAY (2 weeks before christmas) i was let go from one of the highest paying jobs in Bozeman.

well hey at least my blog will probably suffer a little less!
