I have the best intentions. I hope to post more often than I have this week. I took Monday off and got a few things done and went to the pool. Tuesday I started right in to my job. I think it's going to be a little while before everyone is totally comfortable but I think it will be great! Interesting story though from the week. Last week an co-worker came up to me and said "Why did you leave the U of I?" I answered with 'Why? Are you surprised that I left?' He said yes, I saw how much you made and can't believe that you walked away from that. (all salary information is public record and can be found online). I looked at him at said, sometimes, it's not about the money. It's about quality of life and I'm at the point in my life where I want to enjoy my family and friends more than I've been able to. He hesitated for a moment and agreed telling me a story of options he had when he could have left his job for another that paid a little more. Yes, flexibility and quality of life are important. Looking forward to next week and all that it brings.
Thought for today: Don't look back- you're not going that way.
