Officially unemployed

So Wednesday was my last day at Continental Disc Corporation. I was there almost eight years so it was kind of an emotional day. Lets just face it, it is not so much the "job" that I will miss but instead the people. I think back over the years to all that Jacob and I have been through and how my coworkers played a part. They have been there through our wedding, 2 deployments, 2 graduations, etc. No matter how tough the day might be or how frustrating the job can be at times the people made such an impact on us. One thing is for sure, CDC people take care of each other.

So now that I am technically unemployed everyone is asking me how I feel. To be honest I am a little terrified. This is the first time since I was 16 that I have not had a full time job. Even when we moved I had a job lined up. It feels a little strange to go to bed knowing that I do not have "somewhere" to be. Right now is especially strange since I have not started my new job of being a mom. One thing is for sure, I feel so blessed to be able to stay home and take care of our baby. I am so thankful that I have such a supportive husband that is willing to sacrifice the material things to make our family a priority. Lets face it, it is not easy living under 50% of the income you are used to having. So as much as I am nervous I am equally if not more excited. The countdown is drawing near and I am ready.

CDC thanks for all the fun times and happy memories. I will be back to see you soon.
