Change is coming......

It is bitter-sweet that we will be closing the office at my job as of July 1st. Although I have always entertained the idea of working from home, I will miss the office that I have been in for 8 years. The location was great, right next to the high school. I have mixed feelings about working from home, and I am sure there will be an adjustment period, but I think it will all work out for the best eventually. 

The worst part about closing the office is the moving. I do not particularly enjoy going through 20 years of files, deciding what to keep and what to toss, especially when I am just not certain. My former boss was old school and keep everything! Emails and correspondences as well. How different his generation was from what we now have come to enjoy about digital filing. 

I consider myself fairly flexible, but there is something about fixed routines and such. However I am  realizing that not just my job location is changing, my whole life is headed into a new season. Now that Allie has her own car, and Nick not too far behind her, their needs of me will change too.  Where did all the time go? Seems like just yesterday their were totally dependent on me for this or that. Such is the tale of growing up and preparing to leave the safety of the nest I guess. 

We all know that this did not just happen over night but I am pleased with how each day has helped to prepare me for roads that lay ahead. Little things here and there have helped pave the way for gradually adjusting to the coming changes that are and should be inevitable. Things are as they are designed to be, seasonal and temporary. 

Let it be know that out of all the things I have ever done, I have to say that being a mom has been my most favorite adventure yet and I look forward to all the adventures we have yet to share as well as the ones we will experience separate from one another. 

Change is not just coming it is here.
