If you’ve been following this blog, you’ll realize that my writings have become rather sporadic. As much as I have tried to keep up with it, I have struggled. The main reason? My job!

I have a rather demanding job that requires a lot of my time. I am on call all the time and have to be available to assist with issues. Such is life in the world of IT.  In following this blog, you realize some of the results of that demanding job.  Check out my post back last year which addresses this straight on.

After much discussion and budgeting, Matchdad and I have made the decision for me to walk away from my job.  Trust me, this is not that easy decision. We are going to have to make a lot of changes including securing benefits and figuring out a way to make up for lost income.  But if this means I can begin to be a “stronger” me, it is all worth it. I have really struggled with this career and really need time away to heal myself both physically and emotionally.

So the journey begins. I plan to make the announcement in October so we have a few months left to plan.  Oh don’t you worry, you are going along the journey with me. I plan to share all of my concerns, struggles, and successes as they happen.  I hope that my journey will help you with your journey.

I have a lot to learn here so this will be interesting. Keep watching, I plan to update this site often with my updates.  This will be quite a journey. I hope I packed the right tools?
