Job update

It is update time.

I have finished my last day at my job. All over. See Ya! It didn’t seem real until HR handed me my final checks and said good luck.

I had a very nice send off. My group had lunch at Buca di Beppe, in the Pope’s room. It was nice to spend some time with these people I have spent years working with. And they gave me a wonderful going away present. A silver iPod mini. They each had a song on it so I have my own Work mix. It was very touching and it means a lot to me.

I am taking the next week off for a little R&R. Friends of mine in Redding tell me they are delighted to have me come visit and just hang out. I get to sleep as long as I want, wonder out and be around people. It is so refreshing and feels so good. I visited them for a few days in March and all I wanted to do when I got home was turn around and go back. So, here it is two months later and I am going back. We will see if they start to get sick of me over a week visit this time.

Right now, I am in a transition. It used to be I couldn’t stand to be in transition. I would start madly planning, basically grabbing a hold of some line from the other side of the transition and pull myself through it. This time, I am just letting it be, or at least trying to. Don’t know where I am going or what I am going to do.

At the beginning of next week, I will start looking again, hopefully sending out resumes, and contacting the temp agencies. I figure I will visit the agencies when I hit town again. So I am not completely without a plan or rudderless. I am just not going to worry about it right now. Right now is for me and getting myself repaired after all the damaged I took trying to make everything work. Recentering, realigning, recovering.
