My Last Day

I had a really nice send off from my crew at work.  I think, mostly, it was really good to get together outside of an office setting.

I am so glad it was a long drawn out process of losing my job.  It allowed me the luxury of living in denial for awhile and then finally coming to terms with it and then acceptance.  I guess that is the same for any "death."  We live little deaths each day.

Maybe, in the end, after I come to full acceptance, it will seem like a gift was given to me, especially since it is summer and the living is free and easy. It's only been a few hours--I really haven't unwrapped it yet.

I will try to make the most of it.
