its been a long week.....

Wow. It has been a really long week. Leaving one job and starting a new one is a little stressful. Those of you who have ever left a job (especially one that you really kind of like) is hard - there are so many emotions that you feel - torn becuase you are leaving your friends, sad because you really do like it - you just can't stay, and happy because you are starting a new chapter in your life. I cried - shocker - but since I have arrived at my new job, settled in, and have started on my first project I can already tell that this was the right decision. The stress has totally almost melted away...except I have no idea how to do anything on this computer. I have worked remotely on a laptop for so long - having a crazy keyboard like this and a mouse is just weird. Plus, trying to figure out where everything is with 500 different drives and folders will take a while. But everyone here has been great. My favorite quote of the day was "what is the auditor doing in "so and so's" office." I laughed out loud at that one.

My sister sent me a great plant for my office (I'll try not to kill it sister - but I make no promises!) and my friend KC sent me flowers that were so beautiful....and that doesn't include all the great well wishes I have got from everyone. I know that I am truly blessed and for that I am so thankful!!! Plus I got out my candy dishes (holiday themed- these are the easter egg shaped ones) and got my wavy green and favorite pens and pencils and I am ready to go!!!

so, that is all. I am headed off for a much needed manicure and pedicure - it was been way to long and then dinner with an old intern - who randomly called me today becuase she stole some flip flops a year ago and finally found them to return them. hilarious. So we are going to go have dinner -she was pretty upset I left the firm and I feel like I need to explain that it wasn't because I hated it - I just felt like it was my time to move on!

I have some more to post - but no computer. (well, they gave me a nice new Dell laptop - not really sure how to use it! ha! not even sure I know how to log on! Love the new job!) So it may be a little later before I do that!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!
