I am at the point in my life I can honestly say things are exactly where I want them. After 4 days my opinion of the job is very high. It is not overly challenging but it is in a new field so I can learn something about insurance and investments that I will hopefully take with me for later in life. The people (well the 3 men) I work with are extremely nice and I enjoy spending 4 hours of each week day with them. I am glad that finally all worked out. Like mom kept saying, I had to be patient and the right opportunity would present its self when the time was right. Very thankful it happened before I went crazy!
I went to Atlanta this past weekend. It was very enjoyable seeing lots of former colleagues and friends. I spent Thursday night with my AMLIFamli, that is the best group of people, I am so thankful I have kept up with them. Friday I had lunch with Momma Elisabeth and Little Braylen!!! He is the cutest little baby and so well behaved. She is a wonderful momma and I wish her all the happiness in the world. Saturday was Meg Leb and Jamie's Going Away Outting! We ate dinner at Buckhead Saloon (Formally Rio Grande and formally MUCH better) and went out to East Andrews. I am glad I got to see some people I hadn't seen in a while and catch up with them, I wish they were closer. I went to the only "Speak Easy" in Atlanta, Prohibition with Mikey and Jenn. It is a cool concept of a "Secret Bar". Jenn got the "Secret Code" from a bartender at Cellar 59 and off we went. The 1920'2 decor was fabulous, the waitresses were overly friendly, and the drinks were amazing. It was very enjoyable and I would definitely go back! The night ended late and the morning came early and I am OLD!
Going to Atlanta made me realize how much I am glad that I made the decision to move to Mobile to be with my BF. On my way to Atlanta I started making a mental list of every reason I like being in Mobile and the list just kept growing all weekend. I truly love all my friends in Atlanta but I guess there comes a time in people lives that you have to grow up and do what makes you happiest and my BF makes me happiest. I love our life together and I am thankful that I have this opportunity to follow my dreams and heart. I will always love Atlanta and for now I will call it "home" but I know that this is what is better for me right now. I am in a good place in my life and I am a lucky girl.
I am sad Meg Leb is moving more than a car ride away from me :( Glad she has booked the first flight back to Atlanta. I wish her and Jamie the best of luck with work and school. I know both will do amazing things in their new cities. They both mean so much to me.
I am glad to be back, sleeping in my own bed surrounded by BF and the pups. I love you Atlanta People but I am old ;) HAHA I need to start resting now for Labor Day when I return to you all again!
