A Big Day

We gave our notice today! I was so nervous!! It went really well though. Our BIG boss wasn't in the office today so we gave our resignation letters to the boss we answer to directly. I really like him and we get along really well so on one hand it made it easier but on the other it made it harder. He seemed genuinely sad that we were leaving. At one point he even had to hold back tears. I'm not sure if those were tears that we were leaving or if they were tears that he had to replace us but either way it was kind of nice. He said he was sad to see us go because we were so good but he was really happy that we were chasing our dream.

I did let a few co-workers in on the secret before we gave our notice. They have been rooting for us this whole time. I really am going to miss everyone I work with SO much. Even when work got piled up and there was no end in sight my co-workers made my job worth doing. I am really very thankful that God blessed me with such amazing people. It gives me hope for my next job and all the people I will encounter in the future.

There is still so much to do before we leave but with this huge hurdle cleared it seems that we will be gone in no time. I'm really starting to get quite emotional about all of this. There is less than one month before we leave and it is getting clearer and clearer that my entire life is about to change and I pray that it is for the better.

Just a month and a half ago I was content to live my life out in Hawaii with Doss by my side and now look at us. A brand new adventure taking us to the mainland, a place I thought we would never live. Life really is amazing! I'm sure things are really going to start moving quickly now. Hold on tight because we are about to go on a wild ride!!

Hey you! I found your blog (by reading Deb's) and noticed you are MOVING! Good for you and Doss:0 Isn't amazing how quickly life changes?! I read your latest blog stating just a month ago you were happy to stay in Hawaii and now you are ready for a move to Oregon. God is good, He has great plans for you and Doss. Same thing is happening here---we have been settled in Idaho for years figuring we would be here "forever" and in one month all has changed. We are actually moving back to Washington!! We hope to move in the next few months. That will make us much closer to our family, now including you and Doss!!!!! Take care and you are in my prayers as you prepare for your journey:)
