It's Been a Year...

Well today is an anniversary for me. I was laid off a year ago today and still am shocked that this happened. I just went back and read the blog post I wrote on the day I was "let go" on my old blog and I was royally pissed - but who wouldn't be. haha 

When I was laid off I had so many emotions going on. Things went haywire and I never thought in a million years I'd be where I am today. 

It took me about 6 months to get over the fact that I was let go. I had worked for 17 straight years and to all of a sudden find myself jobless was just horrifying. Now that I look at it, I couldn't be more happier.

I don't have the stress of a boss anymore. I don't work for hypocrites anymore and I am loved by the most amazing men in my life!!

I also got Colt.

Colt was conceived a week after I was laid off and in my post that I had written I had mentioned I was ready for something good to happen to Jeff and I. We were ready for a new path. Well a couple weeks later I find out I'm pregnant, then a couple months later Jeff gets a new job which is enabling me to stay home.

I guess we got our answer.

We still have a long way to go, but I can tell you that this past year has been amazing. Cash is my little buddy and loves life so much and his dad more than anything in the world. Colt just loves the fact that he can cry, eat and sleep! haha 

So would I go back to work if that company ever asked me back?

HELL NO!!

I'm happy right where I am at and I wouldn't trade my life for anything in the world. 

Here's to the anniversary of me being laid off! Best thing to happen to me and my family!
