Future and Past-August 19, 2011

Back from my trip to Nelson, struggling with the time zone difference, seeing as it's 11:00 and I've not yet gotten OUT of bed. I was also up much earlier with some stomach troubles, and went back to sleep, not to awaken until almost 10, and am going to take it easy today. I talked with someone from second career yesterday and she asked me lots of questions and tentatively booked me an appointment, will have the decision in a few days, said it looked "promising". Dare I hope? I am actually afraid to get too much hope up for this, to avoid crushing disappointment, but I am going to be optimistic and keep positive energy around this. On the flip side, my old "work" is now training for fall, and I saw their hiring ad in the paper and the person who took over my position has "officially" been put in my old position. I have come to realize that he was likely gunning for my job the whole time, and it's been a tough one for me to swallow. I'm still confused with the lack of any communication from any of those people who were suppose to be my friends and that I helped both professionally a!nd personally throughout over the decade I was there. I continue to piece more of the ugly background together as time moves on, and I am not doubting that I am happy to be released from that bondage, the relationships that at one time were as close as any I've known, or so I thought, continue to plague me on occassion. Sometimes it's here and sometimes its non-existent. I think because of the time of year, it's here. I've had a few dreams recently about it, and them. However I know that I'm on the path I'm meant to be on, and am so very grateful for the opportunities I've had. Carpe Diem!
