So I need to catch up on some of the things that have gone on in the last few months. I had been working in a salon in Colorado Springs for about a year and a half. Drew had been deployed for nearly 8 months and the holidays were approaching. I had been working 6 days a week and dedicating pretty much all my time to my job and requested some time off to be with my family for the holidays. I was refused any time for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New years. So after struggling for quite sometime I decided to quit. Disregarding the fact that I was nearly alone in Colorado and all my friends and family were in Idaho it was a very hard decision. I can say months later that... A- I was addicted to work and sorta "checked out" of my own life and B- it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. It gave me the opportunity to work on myself, my marriage, (as much as you can from half a world away) become closer with my family, and probably more importantly my relationship with my father in heaven. I was given the opportunity to actually attend church every Sunday, have family dinners with my family again, and so much more. I'm so thankful for the support of my husband to allow me to make that very difficult decision. I have to also mention that in the last month my job contacted me and asked if I would like to come back and I didn't hesitate at all saying I'm honored but am happy where I am.
