besides leaving canaan a few months ago, for those who don't yet know, i've also given notice at work. i've given a loooong notice, as my last day is not until jan, but my boss has already announced it to my group, and word has spread fast. people from all different groups have already asked me if the rumor is true. by the time i leave, i'll have worked there for almost six years - crazy! through the almost six years, i've worked with a wide variety of people through various positions, so it'll be hard to say goodbye to everyone.
what next? i plan on taking a break. going on vacation. and then i'll figure it out from there. i thought it would be the perfect opportunity to go on that missions trip that i haven't been able to go on since i started working, but it's kind of too late for any trips that would be taking place in the beginning of next year. also looking into some volunteer opportunities while i'm taking the break. i just don't want to get lazy and sit on my butt day after day, so i need to be careful.
believe me, it took me a long time to get to this point. a lot of praying, asking God for confirmation, and lots of "encouraging" from certain people. i kept thinking of different reasons why i'd want to stay working there (free trip to hawaii, big chunk of options vesting soon, good company to work for, etc), but i finally realized that i just need to draw the line and do it, otherwise i'd never leave. why leave? yeah, ask me personally. lots of reasons.
so. so far in 2007, i've had knee surgeries #4 & #5, left a church, and given notice at work. wow... what more can happen? :)
crazy year.
i'll end with this. from google talk.
thanks mary. at least 46 < infinity.
