Today I finally got all of my paperwork together and went into my boss's office to give him my 30 day notice. Now it definitely feels like a countdown and things are starting to speed up. They have agreed to let me be on a 120 leave without pay while I look for government work in Kentucky. It will be the first time in 4 and 1/2 years that I have not worked, and it will be different.
But I'm really ready for the change. It will be nice to have a small break and be able to do things with my husband, even if it's packing, sleeping in, going to the gym, shopping, moving, getting a puppy, living in the same house; just being husband and wife and experiencing all of it together.
I finally found my wedding shoes that I had been looking around for everywhere, and I found an unopened wedding card among some of our stuff. It made me think again about how wonderful of a day it really was and how it was the best day of my life; how grateful and lucky I am that Kasey picked me to marry him.
I've still been dealing with a lot of negativity. Everyone seems to have an opinion, and think that if they TELL me that something seems like a bad idea to them, that for some reason I would be obligated to do what they are telling me to. The thing is, Kasey and I are going to make our own decisions. Just because someone is going to give their negative input doesn't mean its going to affect the outcome. We will listen what you have to say, but ultimately, we have plans, we've already decided what we're going to do and how we're going to do things. It doesn't mean that everything is going to work out, but at least we will have each other, and that's all we need. We live and we learn and we're doing it together. I am thankful everyday for my husband :)
