These times they are a-changin'

So I have to hand in my resignation letter tomorrow. I'm a little worried but feeling great anticipation at the same time. I'll be starting my day off showing a really annoying woman tasks that she'll be doing in my absence. My other duties will be spread among my boss, the administrative assistant, and the 3 remaining counselors. I'll be showing them the works next week. I was told that instead of 2 weeks notice, that I have to be out in a week. I know it's time to leave and it's time to move on, but I'm nervous. There's a level of attachment but only in the respect that this is where I started working 2 days after moving to Philly. I didn't really know anyone and I wasn't with Dan yet. And now it's been 3 years. But I met so many people in my time there, namely Caitlin whom I'm being "interviewed" by tomorrow. If someone had asked me 3 years ago if I thought I'd be friends where her in the capacity that we are now, I would have said "probably not". But I only say that because we worked in different programs and she wasn't there for very long when I was hired. It's interesting to see how things clicked the "second" time around when I met her. But these people, as crazy as they can be at times, were the closest I had to any kind of family or friends for months after I moved there.

At least I leave tomorrow at 12 and should be in Center City for 1pm. I have some things that I'll have to figure out, like my commute. I have a feeling I'll start ASAP because I'm not sure I can afford to take time off in between jobs. I have to look at my finances and just hope that things will fall into place with a minor pay cut.

*deep breath*

These are some pretty crazy life changing times that I'm in. I can only hope that things will be as healthy and healing as I anticipate them being. And I think that's the other thing I'm having anxiety about. I've been pretty lousy with adapting to the free time that I've inherited this past week. I have to learn how to deal with that because I'm so use to feeling weighed down and struggling. It'll be nice to get that under control and to work in an environment where I know my supervisor actually cares about my well being. Go figure.
