Wow, what a fast week this was. Things at work were busy all week, it seemed like as soon as I was finishing one project another came up. That is the way I like to work though so I am not complaining. Before I knew it, it was Friday. And with the arrival of Friday came some devastating news from our Executive Committee. My place of employment for the last 20 years was closing. The time frame is approx. 2 years for the closure to be complete. Did I mention that my husband is employed at the same company. It's going to be a big change for us but I am sure we will figure out what we are going to do. I can't help but worry about the people that have it a lot tougher then us, for them I hope things will work in their favor. We are fortunate in that we have each other, and we can do whatever it takes to get through. I pray that we do the right thing for the clients we serve, we have spent too many years caring for them to see them get services that are less then they deserve. My favorite saying is and always has been, "this too shall pass" and I have to continue to believe in that. Oh BTW, the picture is of a hawk outside of Todd's office. Nice, huh? Where else can you work that you share office space with a Coopers Hawk.
Now on to the very best thing that happened to me this week. My best friend from my teenage years found me on Facebook. OMG it was awesome to hook up with her again. We share so many memories of the most important time in our lives as teenagers. We found each other way back then for a reason and we have re-found each other now for the same reason. It's funny how our paths took us in so many different directions yet we reconnected like it was merely yesterday.
Here's the cool thing. When we go to Seattle this summer we will stop and see her in Oregon. How perfect is that?
Now it is Saturday and it is the beginning of my husband, Todd's, birthday weekend. His birthday is tomorrow but we plan to start celebrating today. Maybe a movie, maybe dinner, we'll see.....
