Unexpected Fork

Long time no blog. Why? Because I put my heart and soul into somebody else's life and not mine.

In short, close, dear friend of 3-4? years created a position for me in her company. Blessed I was for almost a year in a dream role for which I thought would send me into retirement until....boom, kablooey, kaput, you've got to be kidding....it was over. No idea. Job is over.

She said I inspired her to adopt her kids, I was one of the best employees she had, she complimented me on my determination, loved to work with me because I never complained, and was like her little sister.

But life takes us places we don't expect. Positive side? Yes. Always. Though I took the unexpected fork in the road, I am happy to say it's been a peaceful one. All is well now and, simply put, it was meant to be. Nobody should live like that. Life is too short.

Peace out, Andrea.

Little Chicken has learned a very valuable lesson. Now just dust yourself off and move on. I know you will because that's what you do.

Have a terrific day. Biggest hug ever. :)

Glad your back, friend. I've done things like that (7 years). A place a learned a lot about myself, but wasn't meant to last.

Hope to see you blogging more than I've been lately. :)

Life DOES present us with surprises and lessons along the way. I'm glad to find this post ... to know what you've been up to. Hope you'll continue to post as the spirit moves you.
Hugs and blessings,

Well that stinks. Great outlook on it though. Aren't you workin' on a book? How's it going?
