Well, today I put in my notice. It's a sad day here in my brain. I feel like Starbucks is an extended part of my family, that it's more than just a 'job'. I'm going to miss it.....
.... that was a post I began back in late September. I had just suffered a mini breakdown over too much school, too much work, too little sleep and 24-7 of kids bouncing all over me!
I did some honest budgeting, gave my two week notice and quietly left.
It's November now and I'm so happy that I am not working. I DO miss Starbucks. It was such a big part of my life for so long and such an important part too. It was a career. One that turned out not to be for me but one I gained all sorts of good things from.
How many coworkers turned into good friends? and yes, I've been hanging out with a few of my former coworkers.
November already. Time flies regardless of if you are having fun or not. I'm busy loving my boys to death. Busy carting them around to preschool, playgroup, to the library and to the park (indoor park, it's POURING rain over here in Vancouver) I am teaching my oldest to read, I'm giving him the materials to draw and paint; and in between it all, I am doing homework. Not as much as I'd like but still, I am slogging away. Writing essays for my academic writing course and studying biology for that too.... math has fallen by the wayside for a bit but it will surface again :)
Christmas is coming and we're busy squirreling treasures away to be wrapped and given away. Baking will start soon and there may be a few lights hanging from our living room window :) there's so much left to do but Christmas is a happy time for us in this house. it's always meant 'family' to me.
More on Christmas and life later.
