Update

It's been a long time since I've posted. I'm not sure if I would come back to this or not... I haven't quite decided if blogging fits into my new life or not.
Yes... I applied for the job that I was telling you about. It took a long time. I applied for the job back in Aug or Sept... and the final decision was made in Oct. I got the job! I started the first of November.
The last couple of months have been a whirlwind for me. The emotions of quitting a job, and starting a new one, were a lot higher than I expected. Then, there is the complete upheaval of my routine. I now have to get up early, get dressed :-) and drive to work. This in itself has proven to be somewhat hard to get used to. I used to do it. But, it's been 4 years since I started working from home, and while 4 years doesn't sound like a long time, it certainly is long enough to make certain routines habit forming.
Meanwhile, I don't spend a lot of time at home anymore. When working at home, I somehow managed to work, do laundry, do dishes, blog, read emails, garden, craft, and eat, all at the same time. Now, I am now limited to what I can accomplish in a day. And considering I'm away from home for about 10-12 hours every day... well, let's just say it's an adjustment period. Don't get me wrong. I love my new job. The future prospects here are fantastic. And the pay and benefits are much better. No... I am definitely better off now that I took the job. It's just an adjustment. In a couple of months, I will have my routine back, and be able to get a lot more accomplished.
