It's amazing how the time is flying by! I'm sure it will fly by even faster as we get through the holiday season. I told some colleagues, at a workshop last week, that this would be my last. So many people know now that I can't believe "administration" doesn't know. If they do, they aren't saying anything to me, or asking about my plans.
In the meantime, I go about my day to day work as if nothing is going to change. I work on requests, attend seminars, conferences, group meetings as I would if the end of the year were bringing nothing more than a new calendar.
I feel if I tell enough people, that I won't back down. But the funny thing is I don't want to back down. I'm actually looking forward to it. Of course, right now is the most stressful time for me (at my job), and that is only amplified by the unsettled personnel issues.
I don't know how I'll fill my days... that's something I'm starting to think about. Rich is worried and he's always had things to do that keep him busy. That's not me, though.. so who knows what will come of that.
But I have to say that while I love my colleagues (most of them) and like my work, I don't want to do it anymore. There's a reason people change jobs/careers every 7 years.
Until next time....
