New Year, New Me

I'm sure you've all heard the saying "begin as you intend to go" - well, I've decided on this first day of the new year that one of the things I'm going to strive for is to get back to my blog, and keep it up.
2010 was an up and down year for me - got a new job and then left it, all in the same year. It was really a lesson for me - I've alway prided myself on the fact that there wasn't anything jobwise (within my field) that I couldn't do. Yeah, you know what they say about pride - I got my butt kicked by a job!!! Man, did I hate to admit that, but finally had to. I've never been in such a high-stress, high workload job before, and finally, due to stress, had to say "uncle". So, a little humility never hurts, right?
I'm back on the job market, beating the bushes, but I've found that my priorities have changed. I want to find something that I can enjoy (what a concept, huh?), a job where it matters that I am the one working there, that I, through my life and work experiences, can really contribute something important. I'm doing a lot of soul-searching, examining the things that really are important to me, the things that I really enjoy - and then I'm hoping that I can find a way to mesh those things with earning a living. So - wish me well, and keep me in your prayers please.
I am so very, very blessed with family and friends that love and support me, and I just want to say thanks to all of them. Love and friendship are what life is about, the only things that really matter and, while I have no idea why I've been so blessed with both, just want to say thank you to those people who continue to bless my life by being part of it.
