I Need To Turn My Brain Off

I’m being transferred at work

I had two weeks notice

I start my new assignment Monday

Between busting my butt to get my cases done

To coordinating taking over another supervisor’s job

AND fitting in a vacation

I AM SPENT!

And now, instead of just being responsible for my cases

I’m responsible for 12 other people

I want to be a good boss

I’ve learned from the best and the worst

And now it’s my turn

I’m excited for this new challenge

Today, I packed all of my stuff from the past 15 years in my minivan

And drove it to my new office location

It was weird thinking my entire career could fit in there

I got all six boxes, duty bag, and misc. gear unloaded, but not unpacked

That will come Monday

But for now, I’m going to go turn my brain off

If you don’t mind :-)

Oh Sweetie...
I am screaming as loud as my little screechy voice will go. Congratulations, and I am so thrilled and proud of you. Job well done sweetie. Your work is paying off for you. Now you will be responsible for 12 other lives, that is a BIG job and I know you have the shoes to fill it. Yeah.

Yes, you deserve a rest this weekend. Take a much needed rest, and get yourself ready for the boys and Halloween, a little fun for them, and then a little time for you and DH, before you start your new responsibilities on Monday. Again congrats, I am so thrilled for you. I am clapping, can you hear me?

Have a great one. Many hugs and so much love sweetie, Sherry

I have boxes and boxes filled with things from my last position at work. I wish you all the best. Handling a group of people with different personalities will be the ultimate test of your skills. I know. Write to me if you care to talk about it.

CM,

You will be the BEST boss. I promise. I can tell who you are from your writing: organized, fair, hard working--oh and creative.

ME TOO: I packed on Friday most of my things. My daughter and I are going to set up my office today. It's funny how one can see the capabilities of another and not so much in self.

Yay for you!!!! Ignore the butterflies.
