Bittersweet, No Bullshit

I know when people say bittersweet, they really mean Thank GOD I am gone and don't have to deal with this bullshit anymore. And not that there isn't a certain level of BS in the military contracting world, but this is truly a bittersweet leaving for me. I have never worked with such a solid team of dedicated people who truly care about each other as much as taking care of the soldiers and families we serve. I won't miss the crazy hours or the heart stopping crisis calls, but I will absolutely miss my JSS family! No one but family lets me be my sassy, sarcastic, profane self and still loves me, even on the bad days.

So if you're not tracking, I have officially left my job, after declining the generous leave of absence offered by my contractor. I am taking a season off from work, and will likely start looking again after my 45th birthday in January (!!!!) y'all. We should definitely have a party for that ripe old age. But the party might be in Mexico, too soon to tell. I am taking a week in November to visit Savanna, GA and will obviously blog that trip here. Plus I'm seriously considering a December road trip to visit all my favorite FB animal sanctuaries and rescues. Whatever I decide, I promise to share the journey; the good, bad and ugly parts. ;)
