Turning in My Keys

Today Ethan and I had lunch with the ladies from my office. They catered Maggiano's for me just like they did for my shower because they know I love it so much. But maybe secretly because they love it too! In any case, before I left I gave back my parking garage access card and the key to the front door and my office. That felt weird. I haven't been at work in 4 weeks but it is still strange to think that I'm not ever going back there...to work anyway. There may be more lunches just to keep in touch! I've worked at this office for 5 years and since I've been there my role has changed and morphed as I gained new responsibilites. I loved my job and I loved the people I worked with and I think I was good at what I did. Is it strange that I will sort of miss it? I felt strange handing over my keys today. There was a finality there that I couldn't help but notice. But I'm not complaining...my new job allows me to be with this little munchkin every day, which is pretty much the greatest thing ever...

Good for you! I didn't realize you would be staying home with him, you are blessed that you are able to! If I make it up to Fort Worth this summer, I might have to make a side trip to Dallas to see you guys, it's been forever!
