"Good Bye" and "Thank You" are on my balloons and I have flowers EVERYWHERE in the apartment thanks to my co-workers. Here is what I wrote to some of my co-workers.
"Thank you all so much for my party, my flowers and for you all taking time out of your day to be a part of my send off. What a gift it has been for me to have worked for you all over the last 3+ years. It never ceases to amaze me how exhilarating life can be when I push myself and "off-road" a bit as I move through my work life. That approach to life has opened doors for me to meet such wonderful people who I might not otherwise have had the opportunity to meet. That is such a big piece of why I feel compelled to keep moving along and finding new places to land...I never know what or who is around the next corner. I am so glad the _____ was one of my stops on the road.
My window on the world looks so festive! I have flowers all over the apartment. Great reminder of how lucky I have been to have met and worked with you all.
I hope you keep an eye on me as you travel the mean streets of ________. And I know I won't be able to go beyond "the door", but if you look out and see me sitting at table...don't be alarmed, it is going to take me awhile to break out of my walk-bys and drive-bys. There will be a lot of hours in the day that my new jobs will not be able to fill! The ___ has become a very big part of my life on so many levels. Thank you all for your kindness and being such good listeners to all my rants and stories.
I hope our paths cross many times as we all move through our lives"
It is going to be a very weird transition. It is no joke that I have LOTS of hours in my day to fill now that I am leaving work #1.
Today - work #2, go by and see a family friend who is in hospice. This is a very strange time in my life. All does still feel good, but that does not mean it is not perplexing at times.
Have a good Tuesday.
