Just When You Think...

Thank you all so much for the well wishes

over the past couple of weeks!

My body is healing nicely and I

am feeling better than I have in a long time.

I knew that my recovery time was going to 

be spent designing business

essentials and ordering all of my paper goods. 

All things that did not require lifting anything

but my fingers to the keyboard.

That was the plan.

The week before surgery, I went

into one, of our two, small town banks

to close an account. I had procrastinated

on this for a looong time {just ask my husband}.

I finally "found" the time to do it. Begrudgingly.

Something about procrastination and timing

because I left the bank with more than

I had gone in with and I'm not talking

about the money I got from closing the account.

They offered me a position.

A new job.

A job.

Talk about spinning.

Yes?

Yes! 

They offered, I accepted, I interviewed, they accepted,

they offered, I accepted.

I start in a couple of weeks.

I had no idea what would transpire that day

but it started with this: I started singing a Keith Urban song

and turned on the radio. Keith Urban was on. Same song AND the same exact words I was singing. Serious!

I trust in God's plan and what he has planned.

So, no FPH Bakery.

Should things change, at least I have that and

my skilled hands to fall back on.

Weekend baking? Mmmm, maybe but probably not.

I think my new position will re-light my creative fire though.

Something I've missed for a while, now.

Instead of it being work it will be pleasure, 

something to unwind with. 

The funny thing is, I've been pulling things out of my 

packed boxes and have actually wanted to do something with them.

Maybe taking a break from the house will give me fresh eyes

every weekend to appreciate what we've accomplished and spur me/us to finish where we've left off.

Regardless, I am so ecstatic!

I feel like I've won something {because I'm one of those

that never does, regardless of how many tickets I buy

to guarantee my win}.

I don't know where that leaves my blog.

I surely do not want to blog about banking but

maybe our weekend renovations will give me material to share with you all. This is, after all, supposed to be a home

renovation blog with some recipes and tips thrown in.

So, I am going to savor my last couple of weeks at home, get some simple projects finished, share some of those things with you and prepare for my re-entry to the corporate world.

Wow, a new career. Who knew? 

Wishing you a Happy Easter. 

We all have lots to be thankful for, especially me.
