happy thoughts.. no really!

I quit my full time job! .. I know, I know, I was thrilled when I got it, but over the past few months, I've realized just how controlling and well.. psychotic, my boss is. She is constantly staring over our shoulders. raising her voice to the point of yelling at both her staff (me included) and the clients. It's ridiculous the way she treats people! also, there are significant troubles with the physical building.. that she continues to overlook, blaming others, and refusing to do anything about.

so I'm done. Gave my notice, and I'm out of there next week... thank god. I got a new job, in the same field (yay!) working for someone I've known my entire life (double yay!!) and I'm really looking forward to it! I just can't wait. Downside you ask? I have to wear a uniform.. upside(s)? more pay, better hours, consistent hours, more freedom, more responsibility, less clients.. so I get a much more intimate and better relationship with my clients... basically I'm just really happy.

I'm engaged ( I don't remember if I mentioned that)... as of a few months ago! my ring is gorgeous and oh so sparkly... it catches the moonlight and my eyes can't tear away... I love him.

my financial situation is looking up, got my debt all paid off, and now I'm even saving some money! it's an awesome and very liberating feeling.

basically, I'm just really happy... I have my Bear, I have two jobs, I am going to be moving shortly, into a better place... everything is finally.. FINALLY... coming together.

Does Pyra Live?

My online persona has been collecting dust as of late. I rarely game anymore which I'm actually quite upset about. Gaming is an escape for me but as I don't have the time, I haven't been escaping -- forcing me to face reality at all times, and despise alot of it. I still like my job, I love the kids but my supervisor and the overall atmosphere because of the way she treats some of the staff is just not good. She likes to pick on certain people, and while its difficult to watch, I just can't help being relieved that it's not me on that particular day. Some of my coworkers are actually on the verge of quitting, which is just sad, that should never be the case. ever.

another large gap

so I really should be getting ready for work, but when was the last time that stopped me from blogging?
I got a new job, it's full time, it pays far better than my current job, and it's in the field that I've been studying in. This is a mixed blessing however... I need to continue working at my current job because I'm a good person, and we just don't have the staff to fill my place so I'm going to be so much worse than exhausted for the next couple of months.

My baby finished school! he's home now (not with me unfortunately) but home which is much closer to me than school was... also a mixed blessing.. I talk to him less when he's home.. and I miss him terribly :o(
